I’m getting a lot of cold calls on my cell phone to do with expired car warranties right now. This is annoying because, well, at 80k miles I doubt I could afford a warranty even if someone wanted to sell me one and also because my cell phone number is only known by a handful of people, so who is selling my cell number (yes I am looking at you scumbag credit card companies).
Most recent call was interesting – apparently, my car had expired! Well, I can’t see me wanting a warranty in that case.
Ha, me to.. for 5 months now!!!!! F’rs! No way to call them back to tell them to go to hell, even. The number changes and even though I have put their numbers on the Gov’s “Do Not Call” list they continue.
Some of the numbers are from Canada, NY are and Porto Rico??? I am now getting the same thing for credit card rate reduction… can’t call them back either?
What’s the point? Anyway, I already have an extended 100,000 through my credit union.
I think they called me literally as you posted this!
That’s the 3rd time in the past week.
The calls started not long after my warranty expired, so I suspect MINI of providing my number to them.
But I’ve seen them mentioned on other sites, and apparently no one can get them to stop.
Sorry about that Josh, I gave them your number and they promised to leave me alone 🙂
You must have…they called again last night!!
Saw they have commercials on TV now, I was sure to yell at.
This time I was sure to hit option 2 to “remove from list”
I doubt it will be effective, but we’ll see.
I don’t get such trouble … but then I’ve never had a car past it’s warranty 😉
