I changed my internet provider once, after I was pissed off by their constant stream of calls about their new offers I might miss. It was a good provider for some time, but after his merger with an other calls begun. I told them every time to not call me, because I'm not interested and if I was I'd contact them. They didn't listen. I tried to shout at them, it didn't work either, so I quit. But it was not the end. They kept contacting me for year and half, trying to convince me that they are the best provider here and I should choose them. I was angry beyond sanity, I'm still angry at them.
I just do not dig it, how people stand this.
- izzydata 5y agoI still get over 100 paper letters a year from Spectrum (previously Time Warner) about various deals even when I already had their service. I've had Google Fiber for awhile now, but they keep coming. I've been storing them all in a box to eventually mail them all back to their HQ. It's quite a hefty box a this point.

- NicoJuicy 5y agoWe have the "don't call me register" - https://www.dncm.be/nl/ https://www.dncm.be/nl/ If businesses call you and you're on it. You can file a complaint.
- ordu 5y agoNice, I like it.
- NicoJuicy 5y agoYeah. I mention it when they call to change the option in their system to not call me, ask their name and ask for a person where i can verify it tomorrow. I don't need to call the day after too and never got called back. I think the amount of irrelevant calls i received is 1 per 2 months. Normally from an older supplier if i changed something years ago.
