| Hey, DU...some help w/ Credit Card co. |
|
not even sure what this is, but I keep getting a recorded call about lowering my interest rate...not affiliated with my credit card company. I asked them to remove me from their calling list and the woman says to me "you sound really young" I said that my age was none of her business and to please remove me from the list...she goes on "well, don't you have a car loan"...I say that is still none of your business, she continues on with I sound young, and starts insulting me. I got pissed and told her to remove the number. Still laughing on the other end of the phone. I hang up. Try to call back and now the number is out of service? WTF is this shit, and how the hell do I report this?
