I told them not to call this number
they suck
Definitely Xentel DM. Called this number and got the usual Xentel spiel of "calling you is the most cost-effective way to reach our goal". The toll-free inbound number for these mouth-breathers is 1-800-317-0667 (with the usual Xentel nerdy guy's voice on this number's announcer).
these people have called many times and have awaken someone sleeping a number of times. They have been told to remove our number from their lists, but have failed to do so. They say that they are Zentel calling for the police, fire dept., or other orginizations in the area and they want donations. I think that it is a corp. that calls for donations alright, but that most of the money goes in their pockets.

The company is Xentel, Inc. Our house gets 3-4 calls from them a month, always from a different phone number, usually from "Unknown Name". I've found a Do Not Call email address for them (dontcall@xentel.com) and sent a message off today. I can only hope it actually works. These people have all but made me quit donating money to anyone.
Many calls from this number. Today a drunk or sleepy sounding guy asked for Jana. (not me) I asked that they update their records. This is a new number for me. We have asked that they not call us before and we are on the DNC list.
Call DAILY, sometimes twice a day, from 618-215-5471. Night calls come between 7:30 and 7:45. Caller ID reads "Illinois call" -- claims to be Illinois Police Assoc. Will not accept my request not to call, will not take no for an answer, and claims to be exempt since it is a "charity"
and they said nothing after I said hello 5 times
called 2/5/07, 7:25 pm...we are on the do not call list
For all of you who say you are the "do not call list". Let me explain the reasoning why you get calls. There is a difference between TELEMARKETING, and TELEPHONE INTERVIEWING. Telemarketing is what you are on the do not call list for, these people try to get you buy things. Now telephone interviewing is your chance to let your opinions to be heard by the CEO, CFO, Presidents,(Etc...) of companies. They call you to ask you questions to see how satisfied you are with products, government officials, laws being passed. This is your chance to be heard by "The Man". People always complain that people don't change things and that they don't listen to "the little guys" This is your chance when an unavailable, unknown name, "a state", or a company calls to let your voice be heard. If you don't want them to keep calling you to get your opinions all you have to say, in a nice voice is, please take me off your calling list, thank you! That is it! So next time you get a call, listen to the introduction and see if you would be interested in the survey, heck, sometimes you may be offered money at the end, if not you have the satisfaction of knowing that your voice is going to be heard!
On no call list. Call from 618-215-5471 IL Police Funder raisers. Is this legist?
Shows only on my caller id. I have never answered & they never leave a message either. I am on the do not call list. The called today 2-2-07 & have called probably a dozen times in the last 2 months.
they won't stop calling. i will pick it up now and tell them to stop calling this number. i'm on the don't call list...yeah guess that doesn't work
They've called me several times over the last week and it is always the same. I say hello and they hang up. Even if they are exempt from the Do Not Call list, there has to be someway to stop their harrassment.
I am on the do not call list.
I've gotten three calls from 618-215-5471 in the last week. Give once and they will call you forever. I'm not opposed to helping police, I just don't know where this money is going. I'd rather give to my local sheriff.
They just called again!
I could hear something going on in the background, but no voice.
It came up as Beleville IL on my caller ID.
They call on an almost daily basis. Usually there is nobody answering after I say hello, but one time they did answer. Something about a police charity.
When they called on the 9th of January I asked them to stop calling and they continue to call. I asked them to take me off their list, her reply, same as the last time. "I will sir." When I told her this is the third time I've asked to be taken off she hung up on me.
Why do you always have to call @ 8am?!?!? I work nights!!! And, I am also on the "Do Not Call" List.
Thank you.
I received this number on my caller id but was not home to answer. No message left. I am also on do not call list.

call from 618-215-5471 i am on do not call list
This is Zentel, a fundraising organization, not a charity itself. Only a small percentage of what they collect goes to the charity.
these people call non-stop
we are on no call list.
They are pushy, rude and totally obnoxious
If they are a real charity or non-profit, they are exempt from the Do Not Call list. I didn't know the Illinois Police needed money... isn't our tax money enough? Maybe these calls are a scam... anyone know?
call from 618 215 5471 Illinois call. They call me 2 or 3 times a day since 1/8/2007 even on Sunday, I do not answer. I am on the do not call list.

I received a call from this number during the Bears/Seahawks game yesterday,. I then received a call this morning at 8:07 AM. How Rude! We are on the Do Not Call list as well.

I have filed a compliant against them four or five times in the last two weeks.
Came up as "Illinois Call". They've called SEVERAL times. Ugh. I'm on the do not call list too.
I'm tired of getting calls from them. They've been bugging my wife and I for two years. We've been on the do not call list the whole time we've had this number!!

I am on the do not call list and have told them no thank you, not this year, please remove me from your list
have been receiving calls from this number the past 3 days. i'm also on the do not call list
I am guessing that this is The Police wanting a donation. I have donated in the past but they don't understand when you can not donate. They don't want to take no for an answer. I am on the do not call list.
I AM ON THE DO NOT CALL LIST.
Received numerous calls over past couple days from 618-215-5471.
I am on the do not call list, but understand if it is charitable organization, they do have the right to call. Just desparate the number of times they have called
Date: Jan 4, 2007 6:53 PM
Caller ID stated: unavailable
This is the fourth time they have tried to call me. I reported them for violating the national do not call list all four times. Just because they MIGHT BE excempt from the do not call list laws does not mean we can't report them for violating it.
I'm on the do not call list and they have called me three times in one month and I've asked them to take me off their phone list.
They're a "charitable organization", therefore, they're exepmt from the Do Not Call list. Not that I agree with this exemption, however...
am on the do not call list. do not appreicate being solicited for money over the telephone!
There was only background sounds when I answered. I should be on the no call list.
I am on the do not call list
