rightsonword Posted January 4, 2013 Report Share Posted January 4, 2013 Does this also include calls from political parties, media, and polling companies during election season? Because that would be awesome. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

umbertino Posted January 5, 2013 Report Share Posted January 5, 2013 (edited) I just registered myself with the Italian Natl. DO NOT CALL Registry as it's getting terrible here ( just like in the US I guess)....They always call my landline Number and I started getting fed up with that.. While I do respect ( obviously) the Call Center workers doing this frustrating and I'm sure very badly paid job....It's not cool to get harrassed more times a day. But I'm always respectful towards the workers as it's not their fault. Thanks, no thanks. Edited January 5, 2013 by umbertino Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
