Good thing I have unlimited minutes...
Oct. 13th, 2016 12:49 pmOn my phone, that is.
There's been a robot recording that self-identifies as "Julia" that calls me, on the average, about three or four times a day, offering some really juicy deal on a loan.
That's a waste of between 90 and 120 minutes of phone time, even if I hang up after just hearing "Hi! I'm Julia..."
What's worse, the calls are coming in from all around the country.
I've even taken to responding to calls from unknown numbers with "Hi, Julia!"—but I guess my intended humor falls flat, as it never reaches human ears (as far as I can tell).
It does not appear to matter that I'm on the "no-call" list. My one experience, a while back, trying to report a nuisance phone caller earned me a "it's not worth pursuing" letter from whatever agency is in charge of, I suppose, sending out letters like that and collecting paychecks for doing so.
Now, a male voice has joined the fray, also offering to lend money to my business.
Sigh.
