Rant! I have received the !FIFTH! call now from the same sales person trying to sell me Reg E Dispute software. Why are these sales people so pushy?!? And why are they calling Compliance Officers in February?!? Do they not know I am over here pulling my hair out trying to upload my HMDA data to the CFPB platform?!

I just hit the "Do Not Disturb" button on my phone (we have caller ID) and let them go to voice mail.

I'm aware of that but most sales businesses will maintain a list of folks who wish not to be called I've found in my experience. And once I request to be on that list, calls stop for the most part.

Also - check your State law - some States do have do not call protections for businesses.

Now I'm intrigued and trying to figure out who this may be!

I have gotten a call every day for 3 weeks from the same un-identified 833 number. I ignore it and they never leave a message, guess it can't be that important! (I'm not in the office right now anyway.)
