I am on the do not call list and was getting harrassed by ATT, of whom
I'm a customer and that didn't seem to bother them. I reported them a
couple times. I finally found some number and called them and told
them if they didn't stop harrassing me I wouldn't be a customer
anymore and the calls seemed to have stopped, although I still have to
inspect my ATT bill every month of  cramming charges. I already spent
a couple months trying to get one fake charge they tried to squeeze in
on me and finally had that one taken off. It's baffling how such a big
company can be scumbags in the first order but they are. I'd love to
have another company as my landline company but you don't get a choice
where I live. I'ts ATT or nothing. This is why we have cell phones I
guess.
