On Saturday a phone call showed on our Caller ID as Wal-Mart. When I answered it was the people from Allied. I consider this highly unethical and told them so. Their reponse was - "oh well we do work for Wal-Mart too." I have written Wal-Mart with copies to the Florida Attorney General, the FTC and the FCC (since they are misusing a telecommunication device). I answer all calls that come in except those placed by an automated system which does not connect to a real person when I pick up the phone. If I say Hello twice and there is no response I hang up. Do it enough times and I block the number. I'm not hanging on the phone for a stupid computer to connect me.
