I used to get calls from ATT 3 or 4 times a week telling me what a great 
customer I am and they are going to offer me the upgrade to super fast DSL 
for 5 dollars a month more than I am paying now.  That's the same offer they 
give to total strangers.
The only way to get them to stop is to interrupt the salesperson and tell 
them that you want them to put you on the ATT 'do not call' list.
I did that and I haven't had a call from them in months.
