Approximately one month ago when I signed up for residential home service and was assigned my new number the first thing I did was call and register this phone number with the national do not call list.
A few days after receiving my new number I began receiving 7-10 telemarketing calls as well as other types of calls non pertaining to me per day. A lot of the callers I would ask to be taken off their calling list and most of them were compliant with the exception of one company by the name Realms of Inquiry located Salt Lake City Utah. For the past 3 weeks now I receive a call from them on a daily basis asking to speak to a woman that I do not even know. Repeatedly i have told these people I do not know this person further more I have explained this is a new phone service please stop calling, the response I get from the caller is we are a non profit organization we do not have a calling list and they hang up.
Today I received yet another expected daily calls this time I was speaking with a lady by the name of Judy Hicks once again I explained the fact this is a new phone service and as I do not know who these people are please stop calling I am registered with the National do not call list and to please take my number off their calling list. The response I received was 'we are a non profit organization therefore we have no calling lists and we are not governed by the National do not call registry. I proceeded to advised her if the calls did not stop immediately I will file a complaint with the state her response to me was "do whatever the hell you want, you're an idiot' and once again hung up on me.
Right after this call I contacted the Department of business licensing to see if I can find the owners name and phone number to see if I can get this issue resolved with them. I was told by the Department of business licensing the people which are calling me are a non profit orgaization and are governed under the Department of Commerce. I contacted the Department of Commerce and spoke to one of their investigators and have filed a complaint.
This business is a private school and on their web site they show a JD*as the head of the school, but according the Department of Commerce this gentleman is listed with them only as the agent which means the owner or owners remain in the shadows and with staff they have working for them like this one can see why. Please do not send your children to this place there are other private schools out there that are much better.
