I hate robocalls, hang up calls and live calls that start with that 'bloop' sound. They disrupt what I'm doing, stress me out when they come in while I'm driving (and can't check to see who's calling), and lead me to be short or grumpy answering the phone anytime a legitimate call comes in.
Today I get a missed call with "No Caller ID", and a message from a local realtor in my voicemail. It's not a fishing scam, and everything checks out: the callback number is the one he lists on his website, he uses the same company name on the call that he has on the building, the realtor's name is the same one in the call and on the website.
But it's a recorded message, I've never done business with them, and I'm on the do not call list. He's looking for people that want to sell their houses, but aren't working with anyone. I reported it to the Do Not Call Registry.
What else should I do?
Visit his office and complain?
Call his cell phone at 2:00 am to complain?
Make an ethical complaint to the local Realtor's association?
Complain on our local neighborhood site so no one uses his services?
Egg his business (I pass right by in on the way to get groceries)?
Send him Glitter?Complain on his Facebook account?
Complaint on his Youtube Channel?
I'm so used to robocalls coming from no name scam businesses that I don't know what to do when an otherwise-legitimate business uses illegitimate means. For sure most of my annoyance is due to the large number of calls I can't do anything about.
