Ever wonder why a cultural institution keeps ringing your phone after a single ticket purchase? The pattern in these reports points to the Metropolitan Opera’s development or fundraising office using the outbound line +1‑212‑362‑6000 for donor outreach. While they may be legitimate supporters, repeated calls can feel invasive, especially if you’re on a do‑not‑call list. Block the number on your device, request removal directly during the next call, and consider filing a complaint with the National Do Not Call Registry. If the calls persist, you can also lodge a report with the FTC. Staying proactive helps keep your inbox and voicemail free of unwanted solicitations.
I've had a similar experience and ended up blocking the number to avoid further issues
Somebody caled my cell, but didn't leave a message, so I'm clueless as to who they are or what they want, becuse they didn't bother to answer when I tried to call back
There are two key points to consider, namely:
If contacted again, requesting to be removed from their list should yield a positive response, as they aim to maintain a good reputation with customers.
The call went unanswered on my end
Two calls were made to my cell without leaving messages, despite being on the do-not-call list
This call is likely legitimate, as it's related to tickets purchased from the Met for an upcoming event
After making a single donation, we explicitly stated in our note that no further contact was desired. But since telemarketing outfits tend to be even less reliable and more unscrupulous than the most desperate street hustler, I shared our fax line with them. Now it buzzes a couple of times daily.
Despite specifying no further contact after a donation, the fax number provided now receives frequent calls, likely due to the questionable ethics of fundraising entities
The Metropolitan Opera is behind this number, having previously purchased expensive tickets, it is puzzling why they would ask for further donations
I've had a similar experience, and it's a clear example of poor marketing tactics

This number frequently calls my cell phone, although I don't answer, and I suspect it may be related to my purchase of Met tickets
Confirmation has been made that this number is associated with the Met Opera's development office, which frequently contacts benefactors, including the owner of this number.
The call was ignored, likely from the Met Opera, which has previously used this or a similar number to contact, despite being instructed not to call again.
I've purchased tickets from the Met before, so it's likely that this call is related to that, as I received a call from this number.
Today, this number made two calls, neither of which were answered, despite having a prior connection with the Metropolitan entity.
Following my purchase of tickets to the met opera, I've been receiving multiple calls from this number over several days
This number has called me again, and I found it annoying, so I didn't answer
Perhaps this number is associated with the Met Opera, given their previous calls to me, but I didn't answer this one.
After purchasing tickets to the Met Opera, I started receiving calls from this number, apparently because I was added to their call list.
It's posible that this number is also asosiated with Juilliard, or maybe it's another entity of the Lincoln Center, but i'm not shure
