Last Tuesday evening, the phone rang again from 1‑800‑618‑4943, and the pattern was unmistakable: an automated telemarketer pushing a Discover credit‑card offer. Callers rarely leave a message and often hang up when you answer, making it hard to verify legitimacy. The safest move is to request removal from their call list, confirm the request in writing, and add the number to your phone’s block list. Register the line with the Do Not Call registry, and consider a third‑party call‑blocking app. Never share personal details like birth dates or Social Security numbers until you’re certain the call is genuine. Persistent spam can also be reported to the FTC for further action.
Given my insider knowledge from over two years of working with Epixtar, I can confidently say their operational procedures do not involve retaining files for more than a month, making prolonged calls highly unlikely; the notion of an automated Do Not Call list is also inaccurate
If you get a call from 1-800-618-4943, its probably Discover Credit Card, I called back and asked them to remove my number from their list, the lady was polite and said I might get 2 more calls
Despite informing them that I don't want or have a Discovery card, the calls have continued for three weeks, with the caller hanging up each time
These people are calling me twice daily, every weekday, and their claims are exagerated, saying I have eggs largrer than the Taj Mahal, which is rediculous.
Reporting this issue has yielded no results, as the calls persist.
That's hilarious, I couldn't help but laugh out loud at the absurdity.
My phone has been flooded with calls from this number.
Are you aware that you should provide all the birthdays you know?
I got a call from this number for the first time and some lady who claimed to be "Jessica" asked to speak with my wife, but when she found out I was the Mr, she started asking me about my birthday to see if I qualify for a Discover More Card, which supposedly pays 1% back and has a 4.99% balance transfer rate til Jan '12, and 0% on purchases for 6 months, of course I had a few questions and found out ther's no fees whatsoever, but I got a bit suspisious when the only call back number was 1800Discover
It wont stop ringing continously, lets just let it ringggg!!!
The onslaught of calls started soon after I switched to Time Warner Road Runner, with multiple calls on Saturdays, including one every hour, which I ignored, and I suspect my new phone service provider may be selling my information to these callers, possibly Discover or a similar entity
When answering, the caller remains silent, which is typical of unwanted telemarketing calls
Despite having good credit, I continue to receive calls from this number, which is unnecessary and unwelcome.
Daily calls are made to my number, yet no one responds even when I pick up
A telemarketer called, addressing me by name, but left no message; after contacting the Discover card telemarketing center, they asked questions, and I provided information, hoping this will stop future calls to our number.
These calls are persistent and won't stop; the caller refuses to leave a message, which is very frustrating.
For over two months, this automated computer system has been making repeated calls, which continued until the call was finally answered and the number was added to a no-call list.
Offering credit card interest rates as low as 3.5%
There was no message left on the call.
this call is from discover card
