How do I stop them from calling?
- Ask the unwanted caller to stop calling and put you on their do not call list (they are legally required to comply).
- If your number is registered with the National Do Not Call Registry you can file a complaint with the FTC.
- Block them with a call blocker:
Uniden DECT1288 blocks up to 20 numbers, plus Private and Unknown, with the reject tone, without ringing the phone.
Panasonic KX-TG106 blocks up to 30 numbers, plus all unidentified callers, with a busy tone, after the phone rings once.
JF Teck Caller ID with Ring Controller blocks up to 70 numbers, and can be set to always allow up to 100 to ring through.

The success of your business will depend to a great extent on our own management skills. For example it is crucial that we have skills similar to
Caller only request year of birth. Seems weird. Look out.
I Got 6 calls from (800) 260-9125 this week.
Called (352) 371-5888 and reached a real person (press 0 for receptionist) who stated he'd take the number off the list
The recording states that this is American Directions , formerly the Clinton Group...
Hope that works because this is interfering with business
FYI, I got the call today from 8772951280. I asked the man whom he was calling from, and he did not answer at first, saying " i have three questions about the upcoming election", or similar. I am in western NY, fyi.
I asked whom he was working for, answer "I don't know".
Who is conducting the survey? "IDK"
Who hired you? "I work independently". Who pays you? "IDK"
I am on a do not call list, why are you calling me? "I will add you to our do not call list".
end of call.
i called the number back and got voicemail for cg hotline; however it states that the mailbox is full
and to press another number; anymore, when 800 or 888 or 877 or 866 numbers call i just let them ring
through and see if whoever is calling to leave a message. when this number called i answered and she
identified two of my family members and i don't like that if she can't say in what regard this call
was about. i wish you had a hotline to block all unwanted 800 numbers called. this gets frustrating.
I WISH THEY WOULD AT LEAST IDENTIFY THEMSELVES & WHAT IT IS THEY WANT OR STOP CALLING. THIS IS DRIVING ME CRAZY. WE ARE ALSO REGISTERED WITH "DO NOT CALL.GOV........

Didn't bother answering... If this is Jeff Green, I wonder why he's calling two weeks after the election. The Kendrick Meeks theory is starting to sound plausible. Incidentally, I'm voting for Marco Rubio, and he hasn't called my home once, so suck on that one, Kendrick.
called two days in a row,,,,,I have caller ID and don't answer.
My email account was hacked into last week. My caller ID shows 2 calls today from TCG (4:18pm and 7:19pm). Another call received 7:45pm from 954-600-1632, Name shows an Anthony Parets.I do not know him. These may be connected.
This caller calls me 8 or 9 times a day. I don't answer it but I heard it is a republican calling to confuse indis....which I am.
This number has called me 8 to 10 times each day and no one is on the line when I pick up. If this is a political call, I refuse to vote for that person or that party. Enough is enough!!!
Phone rang. Hello? Nothing. Silence. For someone who is deathly afraid of hang up calls (for good reason)the who, what, when, why and where the call came from can trigger real fear. I don't have caller ID so I star 69 it and got the toll free number (and I will be billed by for the service) I call 1-800-260-9125. "CG Hotline leave your name and number..." So I left a demand for my number to be removed. Then I went online and found this site. Wish there were a class action suit in the making. Survivors of trauma via harassment / violence / hang-up callers. it's all the same. I'm on the do not call registry but if this is a political robo call... how unprofessional.
This is a political campaign call. GUESS WHAT?? I told them that WE WILL NOT VOTE for anyone calling our home. We will not support anyone that disrupts the PRIVACY of our home !!!!!! I RECOMMEND EVERYONE TELL THIS TO THESE CALLERS !!!!!!!!!
the call my house everyday, I call back the number on the caller ID and it says the mailbox is full. They also leave no message. I figured out who they were from the internet. Seems, I not the only on you they abuse. They call themselves CG Hotline, but they are really, Omni Credit Service. When I left a message, I stated for them to call me back to see what this was in reference to, I do not have any delinquent debts, also didn't know if they were another solitor ignoring the do not call registry. I found Omni's number on line, called them and she told be first, 'we don't have your phone # listed" , then when I proceeded to explain I knew who they were and I don't owe any debt and to stop calling my phone, she said'oh, we'll remove your phone #". These people maybe collecting a debt for someone or whatever, but there business sense is more like a scam...thank you for your time.
Got a call yesterday then again tonight at 9 pm from the same number finally I called it and it was a recording CG Hotline. The msg left from a woman on my answering machine was Hello Hello then nothing then thank you that was last night. Tonight was Hello Hello then nothing then this is the Jeff Green Campaign. Then they hung up. At 9 pm I am still at work and I sure in the heck am not accepting calls from any campaign. My decisions to vote for who I vote is my own and no one elses. I dont appreciate these late night calls.
Have been out of town for several days. Upon returning I found several calls a day from this number. I do not answer calls that show as "toll free call" on caller ID. I do not care which campaign is calling me, I make up my mind independently; certainly I would not take comment from some unknown person on a cold call. For the record, I will not vote for an incumbent nor will I vote for a career politician this year. I think every elected official in Washington should loose their job. I vote to fire all of them and I will be relieved when this primary and general elections are over!
I heard that this is Kendrick Meeks Campaign calling in the name of Jeff Greene to confuse and piss off people. Guess it's working.
The call came to my husband's cell 4 times in the last two days. It is listed as The CG Hotline when you call it back. In the posts below, you can find the website, which lists a WPB county phone number of 561-249-7880 and a young woman answers - she will take your number and name down and have you removed from their list with no further questions or hassles. I think she has gotten a lot of these calls because she practically cut me off at every sentence. Good luck, all.
Just so everyone knows, the do not call list applies to telemarketers. The Clinton Group/ American Directions Group are NOT telemarketers.
I don't usually answer these calls, but I broke that rule today. It was a Jeff Green for Senate caller. When I said, "You must be joking!", she was polite enough to say, "No, I'm not, Ma'am." I didn't allow her to get much farther than that, except to suggest that maybe he should go buy another state.
I'm called every 15 minutes. This has to stop. This has been going on for 2 weeks
6 calls today, 4 yesterday from CG hotline 800-260-9125. Call is requesting a vote for Jeff Greene for Us Senate. Well, Jeff, you just lost my vote. Caller becomes rude when asked where she is calling from, and won't answer questions as to how I can stop the calls.
I am called non stop. OMG! How can this be stopped?
did not pick up the call, however when I called back the message said "thanks for calling CG hotline-please leave a message." I hung up
I get up to 5 calls per day from this no. on behalf of Jeff Green, billionaire running for US Senate, Fl.
Quit calling me. I will not vote for him just because I keep getting these annoying phone calls!!!
Caller: American Directions Group (On behalf of Jeff Green, senate candidate, Fl)
Call Type: Political Call
AS I'm typing to this into another complaint site, "Ryan" called from this no. on behalf of Jeff Green, billionaire running for US Senate, Fl. 3rd call today, first I answered. Hung up on me as I explained my dissatisfaction. How Rude!!!
Caller: American Directions Group (On behalf of Jeff Green, senate candidate, Fl)
Call Type: Political Call
Repeated hangup calls from this telemarketer: American Directions Group, formerly known as The Clinton Group, formerly known as Communications Center Inc.(caller ID lists it as TCG). They perform auto and voice calling for clients ranging from political to charity and sales.
Send a demand to have your number removed from their list to: info@americandirections.com
And, demand of your corrupt politicians that the loopholes on the DO NOT CALL regulations be closed to prohibit political, religious and charity calling.
This number called my cell nearly 4 times in one evening.When I calle back, the number it was a voice mail box saying "CG Hotline".Who is this?
This number called my cell 10 times in ONE DAY!!!! First time I called back the number it was a voice mail box saying 'CG Hotline' but it was full. They called 20 minutes later and it was someone from Jeff Greene campaign who is running for US Senate in Florida. The contact info for his campaign is on jeffgreene.com He'll never get my vote now!
Have them on my phone's blocked caller list (which rings once as it recognizes the number) but they are very insistent and kept trying.
I've been getting these calls a lot recently. Looks like this is something from Jeff Greene who is running for US Senate in Florida. The contact info for his campaign is on jeffgreene.com If enough people respond voicing their annoyance, maybe this will stop. He'll never get my vote now!
Who is this!!???
Call (352) 371-5888
Press Zero for the receptionist. Ask to have your number removed.
Went on the website...theclintongroup.com and there is an email that you can send your number for them to quit calling. Driving me crazy.
They are calling and calling!
All of a sudden this freaken started! Heaven help them! If I answer the phone and get pissed off! Oh boy!
We have had 2 calls, 27 minutes apart. Both times, there was no one on the other end of the line. I called the # back both times, only to be dirrected right to "an automated voice message system" ... almost as if it were a person who didn't set up their cell phone voice mail.
This is the 2nd time I have received a call from this number and I do not even live in florda but yet they are calling me to support a Repblican Senator in Florida that does not make any sense....
Call from 800-260-9125, when asked who and where they were, was told could not tell me for "Security Purposes". Sounds fishy to me. Told him not to call me again for "Security
Purposes". Mmmmmmmmmmmm.
This is the 5th call today (7-31-10) at 2:44PM I have received from this TOLL FREE NUMBER. I did answer it and tried hitting the # Key many times, I guess that doesn't work either, as I have tried not answering it too and that doesn't work! My phone number is still unlisted and is still on the DO NOT CALL LIST!!!
I am tired of this "company" calling me!!!!!!!! It did not start until it was "okay" to call your cell phone number. My number has been on the "do not call" list for years and now they want to keep bothering me????
They do not leave messages, if you call them back it will say that "their" mailbox is full.
Get them to stop
Answered and immediately told them to remove me from their calling list. Apologized and said call paid for by Jeff Green for Senate.
Understand from Jeff Green seantor in FL Just went on Do Not Vote for list
This is the 4th phone call received today (7-30-10) at 12:00PM from Toll Free Call.
I did answer it and didn't say a word, I just hit the # Key many times and I hung up. Hopefully this will work and they will stop calling. My phone number is still unlisted and is still on the DO NOT CALL LIST!!!
This is the 3rd phone call received today (7-29-10)at 11:10AM from Toll Free Call.
I didn't answer it. My phone number is still unlisted and is still on the DO NOT CALL LIST!!!
my message did not get completely posted. I want to let you know that you do not get a person at 108 extension anymore just a voicemail. I found this to be the Jeff Greene people here in florida so i went to his facebook page and reamed him a new one.

Very nice man.. Took my name and number and removed me :) "easy"
7/29/2010 Rec'd call from 800-260-9125, caller ID showed Toll Free Call. Caller identified call as from Jeff Greene for Senate (FL), their web page is jeffgreene.com.
They can also be contacted on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/#!/greene4florida?ref=ts
Pull the plug out!
I am on the "do not call list" but they have called me twice in 2 days. I did not answer either call. At about 5:35 OP on July 28th they rang once and hung up
Received this call for the 2nd time today (7-28-10) at 11:50 AM from Toll Free Call. I didn't answer it. My phone number is unlisted and is on the DO NOT CALL REGISTRY LIST!!!
Received this call last night (7-27-10) at 7:15, I didn't answer it as it came up as Toll Free Call. My phone number is unlisted and is on the DO NOT CALL REGISTRY LIST!!
I just recieved a call at 6:35pm. Same story, nobody there. I used to be with the phone company (Ma Bell). and these are computer generated calls to see if your number is a valid working line. They are usually sold to telemarket companies. The best thing to do is push the # key 6 or 7 times as fast as you can and it will delete your number from their computer. Best of luck to all.
I guess they are starting up again 7/27/2010
I'm on the Do Not Call List. Got this call at 7:29PM on 7/25/2010. When my answering machine picked up they hung up without leaving a message
Caller wanted me to listen to a nonsense story about voting, they wanted my SS number and DOB.. Caller was a very smooth talker, wanted to know who I banked with and for how long? As soon as I explained I was a Cop ( and I am a Cop ) they hung up on me.. be careful with these dirt bags and report them to your Local Law-Enforcement agency if you receive more then 2 calls from them. Tell the Law-Enorcement agency you are demanding what is called in florida a " harassing phone call complaint with an agency case number. Keep tracks of the date and times you receive the call, keep note male or female, ask for names and ID numbers of that person Each State has similar laws to cover you and protect you.. Hope this helps... Florida Cop..
Message was from the UAW for Dem. Party candidate, Lee Fisher, in Ohio.
We must be aware of these calls, heard once that they could be tapping on our lines to just everyone.
I was not home when they called at 9:35 am. My caller ID showed the number but where a name should go it said "Toll Free Number". I, too, am on the "Do not call" list (that list is so bogus. It is not doing any good).
It showed up on my caller I.D. as "Toll Free Call". Nobody was on the other end and it automatically disconnected. I am registered with the "Do Not Call" list and calls like this really piss me off.
I would love nothing more than to take those responsible for these calls and beat them in public square with a split-bamboo rod until they bled out. These people are scum-sucking asswhipes and deserve to die from cancer or aids.
We weren't in when they called, they filled up our entire answering machine with real loud music. They should be prosecuted for this type of harassment.
they clld my Cell and hung up when i picked up. I called back to see what the 1-800 was and got a recording that said CG hotline then went strait to voice mail. Now they are calling again. It was a All's Former Where wanting to set an apoint up for me and my fience to look at tuxes for our wedding.
Left a message for Wally Clinton, CEO of The Clinton Group, not to call again. (202) 223-4747, type in WAL to get his voicemail box in the automatic router.
They called me at home and didn't answer when I picked up the phone. It said unknown name on my caller i.d.
They called me at work. I was out --- they didn't leave a message.
A man called saying he represented NYC Mayor Bloomberg's reelection bid. Wanted to know if he had my support & wanted to know what issues were important. In the middle of my answer, he abruptly said . . . "I'll note that on your account" & hung up. My account??!!
I called back & got a recording for CG HOTLINE.
Who are these people (use word PEOPLE loosely)?
Thanks
Calls all the time. One time it was some guy promoting some politican but I hung up. I was at WORK!
Now the damn people call me constantly! I keep hitting ignore but they simply wait and call back.
I have my phone numbers all listed on the DO NOT CALL registry. What good that did?
None
This number called me and said it was a survey about my credit card. I asked for the number and said I would call back and the woman hung up. The number was on my phone.
Thanks for the info, I reported them. I appreciate sites like this a lot, and I know others do too.
This number keeps calling and it's frustrating- it won't leave me alone. It calls me at least 10 times a day and there is never anyone on the line. PLEASE STOP CALLING!
the caller left a voicemail - said "hello" twice and hung up. there was also alot of office-like background noise. annoying.
They call at all hours of the day and night! They don't speak when you answer, they don't leave a message when your answering machine picks up. If you call 800-260-9125 they pick up and don't speak! What the hell is going on I'm very angry with this company or who ever they are. Something should be done to these rude people.....................
I received two calls from the TCG Toll-Free number today and found out that these were from a political candidates auto call service.
dsfsdfdsfdsf
hang up call
called 5 times today. when answered just silence. finally on the last call after 20 seconds a voice said hello. They were promoting Joe Alioto Jr. in the upcoming election. I listened to the sales pitch and then asked not to be called again. I won't be voting for you with all your annoying calls.
They called twice in one day, ask to speak to my husband but do not leave any information as to the nature of the call
It is so damn annoying. I already got three call today all before 2:00pm.
go here and file a complaint
donotcall.gov
why does this number keep calling 10 times a day? seriously!
It's TCG of Gainsville Florida. The Clinton Group.
By the way, there's a Clinton Group in New York that happens to be a hedge fund. I wonder if they know that there's a company using their name to make junk calls?
theclintongroup.com
As you can see from their website, they are telemarketers. That's why these comments have various call reasons associated with them (i.e. Support for Obama, raise money, etc...)
I get the same thing, multiple calls per day and no answer.
I guess when the say on their website that they're professional, courteous, effective and sophisticated, they are lying.
"800-260-9125" was a number left on our caller ID screen numerous times. This caller has repeatedly called our home several times a day for weeks. When we answer, the line is silent. They have never left a voice mail message when no one at our home answers their annoying calls. I called this number back today, and left a voicemail message telling "CG HOTLINE" to discontinue these harassing calls to our telephone number, and that we are registered with the national "DO NOT CALL LIST" - and we are reporting them to the FCC immediatley. I am glad I found your website to leave my one small voice in with the crowd of others like just us. Thank you.
I get a call about 10 times per week from this number. I've identified them as "THE CLINTON GROUP", a left-wing causes telemarketing outfit who, on its home web page, proudly states that repeated calling of the same people to promote their causes is the main strategy. It doesn't seem to bother them that most people get extremely annoyed. The corporate headquarters are at:
1350 Connecticut Ave. NW
Washington, DC 20036
Telephone: (202)223-4747
If you call, you will get nowhere unless you know a name. To find the names of some of the officials of this company, visit their web site at theclintongroup.net, and click on "site map" at the bottom of the page. There you will find a link to personnel where you can get names. Go back to the phone and use their directory to get phone extensions.
Perhaps if thousands of us call them this way, they'll get the meessage, but I doubt it. Perhaps the best way to stop this crap is to find a law firm that is willing to take on a class action suit
tcg hotline
As others have reported, this rude caller is The Clinton Group...a left wing political element. The bitch that oversees this discussing group of lowlife is Donna Wainwright. She is responsible for the telemarketing operations for TCG. Her office phone number is 352-371-5888...extension unknown right now. We'll get it. Her home address is: 6602 NW 164th St, Alachua, FL 32615-7355 Home phone: 386-418-4388. Give the piece of trash a buzz at home...or send her a nice note...let her know how much her tactics are appreciated. ...Arrogant Bitch...
well they just called and finally said something
it was a recording for electing Democart Travis Childers in MS
I wasn't voting for him in the first place but I'm sure not now!!!!!!
Here may be the company. They go by TCG or the Clinton Group. They are a left leaning call center.

number of calls with no voice received this apst week- one time got directed to 8002201500 Freedom mortgage dept/ Now it ID's itself with "CG Hotline" voicemail; My take is some companies are using Nigerians or similar ilk to getting around do not call listings/ some others seem to report african or Sudanese accents but how they got a person I do not,know - seems to be no purpose except quick bushwack illegal marketing which is shut down buy the operators and restarted with another parton week to week. I could be wrong, but it smells that way
Calls every day after I put my kids to bed. Very annoying. No answer ever. It's been going on for weeks. Called the number a few times. Waited about 30 seconds and received an answering machine stating to leave your name and number. I told them to f@ck off and stop f@ucking calling me. If I ever get a live person I am going to scream in their ear until it bleeds.
F@uck you CG Hotline!
The asshole asked for my wife. When I asked who it was, he said it was a call with some political questions and quickly tried to get off the line by saying he would call back later. I said "No, you won't call back. Put us on your do not call list." I could hear a little snicker from the pindick, who then hung up without another word. I remembered this same little twerp calling a few weeks ago and doing the same thing when I told him to put us on his do not call list.
Called twice 12:48pm and 1:33pm on 10/8
Our phone has been ringing off the hook from the number 800-260-9125. When I answer there is nobody there. Today there was actually somebody there and I ask to be taken off of the call list for that company. I asked who was calling and they said it was a short political poll.
All you need to do is call this number, give him your phone# and last name and you will be removed... it's not that hard just call!
(352) 371-5888 ext.108
Sorry, that got cut off at my use of the less-than symbol.
Basically I was trying to note that on this very page it says the actual company doing the calling is apparently The Clinton Group. Do a search on this page.
In answer to your question, we can't be watching the entire internet - we only have 50 employees, and there are hundreds (if not thousands) of sites where people can complain. Fortunately we're not consumer-focused, so we don't really worry about it - it's just the downside of having a three-letter domain name!

The answer to your question is that there are lots of TCGs. We only get complaints occasionally, when people do the wrong amount of research - that is, when they say, "Oh, TCG, I can just go to tcg.com" but then don't read the website that comes up. Less research (just complaints, on one of an ever-increasing number of websites - too many for a small company with
In the interest of fairness.......the following is a response received from one of the officers of TCG Consulting.
However, it does pose one additional question: If what he says is true, and they have been unfairly accused of these practices, why have these posts gone unanswered by them for over TWO YEARS? The share he responsibility or any bad reputation they might be getting because of their inaction.

Hello there,
We are NOT the "TCG" to whom you should be complaining. You need "Teleport Communications Group" which was bought by AT&T in 2000. Please contact AT&T regarding your complaint. We occasionally are accused of harassment calls purely because we share a company name acronym with the company that used to manage the phone lines being used to make the harassing calls.
Turner Consulting Group has no telephone lines beyond a single PBX that services our own needs.
Please direct your complaint to the proper people, and check your facts. If you'd like to discuss this, call me direct on 202-742-8471 or the President of Turner Consulting Group, Dan Turner, on 202-742-8484.

Mr. Hunter:
You're obviously confused. Just because the company is called "TCG Hotline", whatever that is, doesn't mean it has anything to do with tcg.com. Look at our website - does it look like we have anything to do with politics? Does it seem like we would have any reason to call a private individual? No, if we're calling you it's because you're a client or a potential client who works for the federal government. And we're not calling from an 800 number.
Please check your facts before you go around spreading wild - and unfounded - accusations.

Calle3r-ID merely shows: TCG TOLL-FREE 800-260-9125
it's a political polling phone center. Do Not Call list does not apply to them :(
3 calls . Same problem as others in comments column. Seniors with serious health conditions at this number; but not lacking in financial,legal and political resources to investigate for evidence of harassment,abuse and violations of municipal, state and federal laws .
Who is this? How did they get my cell phone number?
They called twice. Didn't recognize the number so never answered and they left no message. Now I know to never answer this one!
can't stand these call's
Keep getting calls from this number with no message and/or nobody on the other end. Called the number back and got a message that I reached the "CG Hotline."
Called twice today 9/16. What is this?
This number calls before noon. no answer no message. I finaly called back and got cg hot line I left message to cut it out. They called back 5 min. later with no one there again. very annoying
What a pain! 3 calls in an afternoon
Called and hung-up "TOLL FREE CALL" on ID
I HAD 2 CALLS - ONE AT 1:54 P.M AND ANOTHER AT 3:33 - NO MESSAGE WHY CAN'T SOMETHING BE DONE ABOUT THIS ANNOYING CALLER! 9/12/08
They keep calling and won't leave a message. When my husband asks for a message they hang up on him.
Does any one know who is calling.... I finally talked to someone...they wouldn't talk to me just want to talk to my husband... when I said this is Mrs. they said "why is he not available?" I said no...he said he will call back...
I got 5 calls in one day- machine had no message, I answered twice, no response.
They call my home at least twice a day. Odd times. They never leave a message. I never pick up the phone. It is annoying.
called every day for the past 2 weeks almost. Seems to be for a different polling service or company each time... They don't seem to understand the convenience of the Do Not Call Registry either...
I get several calls a day from this number. I do not answer. I am on the no call list, but am still bombarded with telemarketers. I am not going to call them back, that would just encourge them more.
Identified themselves as NARL, however the questions they asked would appear they were probably pro-life. when I refused to give them my email address they hung up.
This number calls me like 3 times a day,every day and I have no idea who it is!
wont tell me who they are with
no one says anything then hangs up
"unavailable" ID, rings every AM and afternoon! Letting it ring to machine, it clicks off. Turning phone on, not speaking, hear several clicks before it hangs up. Once, I spoke, a politcal recording, missed his name, heard him refer to his Viet Nam service. I hung up on this, and yet - the calls keep coming in!! Other responses I just read were from 2006-2007. I'm now referring to July/August 2008. Am on No Call list too, political calls don't have to abide by that! This is harrassement. I'm pretty sure the voice said it was the democratic party - next time I'll answer, try to hear his name, and go to the democratic website and complain!
The caller is Planned Parenthood of Michigan. Tell them to shove it up there ass.
Two calls today asking for my wife, would not answer why they wanted to talk to her.
I have been getting these calls for at least a year and maybe longer. When I pick up the phone nobody is on the line ... ever.
I have been ignoring them for a while.
This is a telemarketer. They call people who have placed their number on the no-call list. They are hoping you call them back and leave your number for them to call you. If you do, be warned, you are no longer protected by the no-call rules because you initiated the contact. You will never get a real person to talk to, only the answering machine...until you leave them the info they are asking for. I called them back and threatened to contact my lawyer to file a lawsuit if they continued the harrassing, no answer phone calls. Maybe everyone who gets a phone call from this company should leave a similar message and carry it through if they call.
Planned Parenthood Survey, they knew our name.

Very nice man.. Took my name and number and removed me :) "easy"
Calls everyday, even on the weekends. Hangs up when we answer and doesn't leave a message when we don't. What a PAIN
Only comes up on caller id with the #800.260.9125. They will not leave a message. I have called the # back and I get a answer machine claims they are TCG hotline. I have told them that I am on the no call list and to remove my number and do not call me again. They have refused to do so. They call daily.
Fuck these people!
There is a call, but no one is there when I answer. I just had two calls about 5 minutes apart.
I got a missed call from this number three days in a row. I called it. The voicemail message stated that it was the CV hotline. I left a message stating that my number is registered on the do not call list. They stopped calling.
political research.
What the hell! I got called by this number every day this week and last week and never picked up since it was during class. Never leave a message and when I finally called back, no-one answers and it says the same thing everyone else said...TCG toll free hotline.
Gah, make it stop!
Got two calls back-to-back and ignored them. Big election coming up in CA next week so am hoping they stop after that.
nothing there when I answered, then a couple of beeps and a click then dail-tone.
Multiple calls, no one ever there. Same as everyone else has reported. Very annoying. Would love to see them fined for violating do not call, but they're lobbyists probably did a good job bribing the right congressman. What a country!
Calls received- May 14th at 12:32 PM, May 15th at 12:23 PM and May 15th 1:15 PM. I called the number back and afer 6 seconds of silence and 5 rings a man's voice says, "You have reached the CG hotline. Please leave your name, number and the purpose of your call. Thank you." I don't hear the "T" for it to be TCG hotline.
This number has come up on my caller ID many times in the past few weeks. How do we go about stopping this.
Got a call from TCG Hotline (showed up as unknown on caller ID). Person asked for my husband by his legal name, which he never uses. Refused to give me company address, claimed security reasons. Claimed to be calling for Planned Parenthood League. (We are pro-choice but are listed with PPL under our nicknames, not our legal names.) After I got transferred a couple of times (I kept asking for supervisor), I got someone who said that PPL wanted pro-choice people to show up at a meeting/hearing called by anti-choice people on May 13 at a local college. Hearing involved a move by Planned Parenthood League of Massachusetts from one address to another in Worcester. When I told the guy that PPL's move had already been approved and that there was no point in any meetings because PPL had already satisfied the city's requirements and the PPL clinic would be moving, he said that TCG was only hired to have those supporting PPL show up at the meeting. He again refused to give an address, supposedly for security reasons. He did remove our phone number from his list; he said that he had gotten my husband's legal name from voting rolls.
This number was used for a local candidate's bank of callers urging voters to vote for him during the upcoming election. They called several times a few weeks before the primary and finally started to leave a message the day before the election.
Called my cell phone, I don't know the number so I don't answer it. Doesn't leave a voice mail. I called the number back and got "You have reached the CG Hotline, leave your name and number".
05/02/2008 10:11 a.m. EDST to voice mail, no message. Calls 1-2x/week.
Get these f'in calls every day and NO ONE ever answers when I say hello. Really PISSES me off!
Unknown name on display. Called 4/29 and asked me if I was or was not in favor of legalizing marijuana for medicinal purposes. Gave my answer, he said thank you, and hung up.
Damn all people who call my home and trying to get me to vote! I am happy with the current state of affairs with Gas ast $5.00 a gallon, our kids going over to war and having strangers tapping my phone. Why do these horrible people keep trying to get me to exercise my civil duties and responsabilties!
I recieved a call and was really quite pleased with the person calling. Although I don't have a whole lot of time on my hands because I work and have a life - still, even if I was bored blind with nothing better to do, I seriously doub't I would take out my misdirected rage on someone who was, themselves, working and trying to improve the state of the country through research and polling for an upcoming election or reminding me to Get Out To Vote. Am I missing something? I want someone to point my aimless rage at too!
Called it and said, "Thanks for calling the CG Hotline."

Got this call on my mobile phone for the first time. I answered, and the call disconnected within five seconds, and nothing was said by the person (automated system?) placing the call. I telephoned back on a different phone, and after four rings, and also got the voice mail message: "You have reached the CG Hotline. Please leave your name, phone number, and the purpose of your call". Not very happy receiving this call. The phone number did come up on the caller ID of my phone. I'll plan on ignoring in the future.
They called and did not leave message.
calls occasionally - rings 4 times and hangs up before answering machine.
I received a call on 3/26/08 from 800.260.9125. I returned the call immediately and listened to a recording which said "you have reached the CG Hotline, please leave your name, # and purpose of this call".
Left message about making abortion illegal and possible jail time for mother
They called but when i answered they did not say anything. Its creepy. How do i get them to stop calling?
So Cal...it is NOT a waste of minutes IF you don't answer....irritating, yes!...but not a waste of minutes.
Wondering if everyone who receives this on their cell phone uses Verizon Wireless.
all I can do is repeat the information below... calls, leaves no message, when you call back, the phone rings and rings then switches to voice mail "This is the CG Hotline....
Heard a hang up click after I answered on the 2nd ring.
This number has called me at least 3 times a day for the past 3 weeks....i am soooo over it!! This should be illegal, wasting everyones cell phone minutes!!!
I've gotten 3 calls a day for the last 3 days. No message is left. When I answer I don't hear anything. I called back and got their voicemail. So annoying.
Yeah, they called me and wanted to know if I was voting for Barack Obama. I guess they are doing a poll.
this # hasn't stopped calling me and we just registered with the do not call list...it's getting real annoying
4 calls in the past 48 hours from this number. On my cell phone too. I've had this number for at least 5 years. Havent bothered to answer it but I did call back and got the same answering machine as everyone else.
If this is generally tied to political campaignes as some have said, I recently changed my voter registration info and that could be related.
I will not answer this call. It seems like a scam. I'll call it back on a diffrent phone and theres never an answer. "leave a message for tcg hotline", yeah right so you can try to convince me to wire money or give credit card numbers over the phone to a stranger. Or any one for that matter. It could be a bill collecter. Screw them all. Tcg never leaves me a message. Because they're anoying ass-freaks!
In the past 2 days I have received 6 calls from this number, no one is on line when I call the number back it says the mailbox is full. STOP WASTING MY CELL PHONE MINUTES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it's the church of scientology. think about it, have you ever said anything negative about the church? chances are i was there and now we're going to annoy you until you take it back. that's how we work. like children. or petty famous millionaires.
First time they called today, left no message, I called back and got sent to VM stating TCG hotline....???? No clue!!
This person called me the night before also and hung up on me when I answered "hi this is [name] speaking." Then I received a call this morning from th same number and after I said hello twice I heard a male voice answer just as I hung up.
they started calling me yesterday twice a day. they dont leave voicemails and when you call back it says the voicemail box is full. who are these people? they call me in the morning and at night.
These people keep calling my cell phone. They won't leave a message, and when I pick up, they will not say who they are. They repeatedly ask for me by my full name, and when I tell them that yes, it's me, they say it's a bad connection and hang up. I called and got a voicemail box for "tg hotline". I left a message asking them to stop calling me. This is annoying and creepy. Why won't they say who they are?
Its all a scam I received a call today from this #800-260-9125 asking me questions. Yesterday I received a call from my credit carrier asking me if I made any purchases with my credit card. Someone has stolen my identity and had use my credit card # ignore this call they just want to get personal info.
who in the world are this silly dang burn peeps any way?
A live, female person asked if I was the person to whom the number belonged. I am not but I know the person who had it previously. I asked what the call was in regards to, she then became very nervous, said "Okay, thank you..." and quickly hung up. I called the 800-260-9125 number and was told the Voice Mail Box for this number was "full."
I've gotten 4 calls from this number today. It's starting to annoy me (1-21-2008).
This is really annoying. Thanks for the great site and info! I'm glad I found it because all these recurring calls were making me nervous
This 800/260-9125 phone number called my home and asked for my son. I said that he wasn't home and I asked what this call was in reference to and if I could take a message. The woman stated "NO" and hung up on me. This made me very angry because if someone stops what they're doing to take time to answer the phone, then the person on the other end could have the decency to explain who they were and why they are calling.
Angry in California
no one came on the line; it went dead.
omg, I just got a missed call from that number and caled back and left my name and number!.... am i in trouble?
these mother fuckers call me every fucking day atleast 3 times! they also call on saturday mornings at like 7am when im trying to sleep. i left a message on their CG hotline and left them a nasty message requesting to be taken off the call list. the calls still continue and when i pick up they hang up in within 2-5 seconds. bottom line i dont give a fuck who is elected and im not voting because no matter who is elected, the system will control that person like a puppet... we are voting for who is going to be the puppet for the system.
This is the 3rd call I've received from this number in the past week, and I have no idea who it is. I have not answered any because I don't recognize the number and am going by the rule of thumb, if its important they'll call back. Does anyone know who this is?

1/17/08 Recived two calls, called back and voicemail was full, hope we can find the person/company hows calling and why.
This is the first day Iv recived calls and found this site, good job everyone.
1-800-260-915. Received 2 calls, no messge left, called back. No one answered and was prompted to leave a voicemail to "TCG hotline".
Ahardworkingstudent@hotmail.com
TCG Hotline. Looks like it's "The Common Good" - a democratic political organization.
i called the number back when they did not leave me a message. there was silence only so i hung up. i called again and got a machine voice mail saying "the mailbox belonging to _T_C_G_Hotline_ is full, to disconnect press 1...". WTF??
I actually picked up and it was someone campaigning for Obama. I think that this might be a generic number that shows when some organizations call to conceal their identity.
1-800-260-9125 comes up as unknown on caller id. it is indeed tcg hotline. i called it back and voice mailbox is full. they call 5 times a day. i called local police dept and they could care less. in my mind it is harrassment not soliciting. im furious.
Sick of these people calling. You answer and they don't say anything and then hang up and then call back within 10 minutes and do the same thing. I am on the DO NOT CALL LIST also. When I called back I got the voice mailbox was full and the box was for TCG Hotline. Also these calls were made after 8 pm.
Stop calling me - 1-800-260-9125
2 calls today,,,first one hung up & a trace came up with TCG Hotline,,,second call says they are University Reaserch & not political related,just want to ask a few questions about products,,,since they asked for me I don't belive they're gettin the # from at&t as I'm not listed on the account,,,probably getting the info from the credit reporting agentcies,,,they've been doing it for years Dog CT
We've been getting these phone calls for over a month. They'd just hang up when we would answer. So we enrolled in callier ID just for these people. Got the phone call and they hung up and was reading this page when they called back. Talked to an "Anthony" at TCG Research. Wouldn't give me their state (security reasons) but I found this address online that might be them.:

I'm on the national and Oklahoma do not call list and have reported them to the Oklahoma Attorney General.
Nearly one call per day. Typical voice message on the other end when returning the call.
I got a call from this number today and had the same experience of getting the TCG hotline when I called back. Since there are so many different messages people are getting regarding voting choices, it occurs to me that this may be opponents of various candidates CLAIMING to support certain people with the aim of getting you to vote against them because you are so annoyed!!!
Got two calls from this number yesterday; did not answer; caller did not leave a message. Called back number, and got a message saying "You've reached TCG's toll free hotline. At the tone please leave your phone number and the purpose of the call."
Received a third call today, and answered just to see who it was; some lady trying to get me to vote for Barack Obama. I'm backing Obama in this election, but I hate hate HATE getting these calls, so I told her I'm not going to vote for him because she called me, and asked to be put on the do not call list.
yup same thing as you guys! a call from this number, leaves no message... when i call back, answering machine says, hi you reach cg hotline blah blah and so on...
I answered and a woman asked for my son. When I said he wasn't in and I could I take a message she mumbled something I couldn't hear and hung up. I have no idea who this is or why they called.
Just got my first phone call from these jerks today. Very scary that they've been harassing people for over a year and a half. Do they ever stop calling you?
I got one phone call from this number where no one was on the other line. Later in the day, I received another and it was someone asking me to support Obama in the upcoming primary.
my second call today and I spoke with an old woman...she went through a whole speech about why I should vote for Obama....I told her that it was ironic that she was calling because I was here looking at the website at all the pissed off voters. Then I suggested she take my name off the list and never call again....she was polite and did apologize and it actually was a real person...we'll see if they call again...
The CG Hotline. I called and it was an answering machine.
Called twice. First time I picked up to absolute silence. I hung up immediately.
Second time I put a trace on it which went through. If I find out who is doing this I'll post it.
The 800 number is showing up and toll free call. Nothing else.
Survey from Planned Parenthood, asking one question about stance on abortion and whether I will be attending the Nevada caucus.
they wont give info 800-260-9125
I'm in New Orleans and have been getting one to four calls a day from this number for the past month and a half. If they're pollsters I wish they'd knock it off. This is completely ridiculous. Oh, and picking up the phone, yelling "f*ck off!" into it and hanging up doesn't work, in case any of y'all were interested in trying that.
"Unknown Name" on caller ID, silence after answering machine picked up but hung up before recording machine started recording.
Yes, we are on the Do Not Call list.
No, we don't usually pick up this kind of call and, based on the other response, never will for this number.
called twice in the past two days no message, when i called the number back, i got a voice message "You have reached the CG hotline, leave a message"
they called, I answered, there was no response, then phone call ended. I called back, phone rang 6 times then recording came on saying, "you have reached the CG Hotline...".
This number is Mike Smith, Billings, MT
Got the phone called today this morning but I did not pick up. No message.
This appears to be a msg for hire distribution line. This time it was a begging for votes. NOT !
This makes us crazy so I guess that's what they want to do. They hung up when I answered. I got the CG Hotline message when I called back. Someone better put a stop to this annoyance!
We have received multiple calls with repeating epiodes, over months, & no response after answering. A recorded voice message answers our return calls: "This is CG hotline, please leave name & number".
They call each morning, and I don't answer. When I call back a voice says "You have reached the CG Hotline, please leave a message."
Calls me 2 or 3 times a day and hangs up if you answer
the phone.
Constantly calls and hangs up when I answer. Call # back and no one answered the phone. I left the message that they are not to call back.
I get a call every day and am tired of being hung up on so I don't answer
Calls twice a day every day - don't answer because it is an unknown caller
Called and didn't leave a message. When I called back it a recoding prompted me to leave a message for the "CG Hotline."
they called and hung up. called the number back from a secured phone got cg hotline recording.
while the number wont google I did find multi hit for cg hotline
Calls several times a day. My ph also says the caller is from KY. Never leaves a message. What is CG Hotline?
Very annoying!
got one of these calls today. We don't answer any calls we don't know from Caller ID.Saves a lotta trouble folks!!
Received 4 call today, when I answer they hang up. When I called them back you get You're reached TCG's toll free hotline. At the tone please leave your phone number and the purpose of your call. I guess the Do Not Call registry doesn't stop some people from making hararassing phone calls!
Left a muffled message on our voicemail. It's a recording for Susan Franks Senate Campaign. We get these all the time from all over the country. We're on the Do Not Call registry but still get tons of calls each week for any and everything.
This number called 3 times today. Based on previous posts, I answered it on the 3rd call. It was the FL Rep party calling to se if I recv'd my "Vote By Mail" card for the June 26 spcial election.
They keep calling, and dont leave a message on the answering machine. No idea who these people are.
I called the # back and got a recording--so I left a message for them to take me of their list and not to call again! I did leave my phone number so they would know what # not to call.
got two phone calls telling me to vote for Micha Kellner ~ called back and left a message saying that I'd vote for the other candidate.
They call & hang up when I answer. I dialed back & got the vmail for TCG Hotline. I left no message. They called again just 2 minutes after I called them. I didn't answer. From what I read here this sure is a studid way to conduct a business.
These people called me at 5:37 three times (yes, on the same day) and then again at 5:48 under the number +46 800-260-9125 (purportedly from Sweden) as reported by my CallWave e-mail messages. Very confusing and annoying.
Called twice today within minutes of each other. The first call there was no one there so I hung up. The second one asked three questions: Was I going to vote in the Senatorial election? (Yes.) Was I going to vote Democrat or Republican? (Haven't decided.) Would I vote absentee if they mailed me a ballot. (No). Hope this ends the calls!
they called at about 8PM tonight. they asked for daryl or marie, with my last name on both names. i really don't know where they get daryl from. i know no one named daryl. i said "did you say daryl?" in confusion and then the woman goes "Daryl?" At which point i was overcome with a feeling of exasperation and told her wrong number and hung up. i just called the number blocking it with *67 and got a man saying this is TCG Hotline. These calls are ridiculous. Half the time they don't even speak when you do answer.
this is a politically connected phone call. I should not have told them who i was voting for. don't give any information on your choice for alderman of the 49th ward.
Same experience as many others. No one there when I answered. Called back and got TCG hotline voicemail asking me to leave reason for calling.
TOLL FREE CALL
no one there, called back said CG leave message
I've been getting calls from this number, as well; I never answer and they never leave a message. Thankfully there is a site like this! (just found it today!) So I called the number, sure enough TCG and left a message stating to take me off of their call list. I'll come back and post again if I receive another call from these guys.
daily nuisance call. never anyone there. just calls and calls. yesterday they called 3 times. i wish my cell provider could figure out how to block calls, this would be the first one i would block.
I just got a phone call from this number. no clue who it is. no message left.
Called my cell phone. I don't mind political calls, but I DO oppose computer generated calls. We need to act together and work to place a stop on computer generated calls. If a company calls, there REALLY ought to be a human on the other end to speak with.I'm really against cell phone solicitation because the cell phone owner pays the bill,NOT the caller!!
I BELIEVE that "political calls" are excluded from the Do Not Call law. The politicians who passed the law wanted to make sure they would be allowed to call anyone they want to gather politicial support- for them or for their allies...
I too had recvd at least 50 calls from this number. Just as I was looking at this web page and trying to google th number, they called! I answered and they were doing political calls, surveying who I would vote for on 2-27-07 and reminding me to vote. How annoying!
TCG Research called again. I answered and was asked who I am voting for in the upcoming aldermanic election. I told them not to call me again. We'll see.
Called five times in the last three days. Never left a message. Caller ID reads "TCG TOLL-FREE"

Caller ID just shows Toll Free 800-260-9125.
Call came in @ 5:18 PM on Jan 16, 2007. We have had multiple calls from this number and do not answer the phone when this appears on caller ID. We are on the National Do Not Call List. They were caling daily @ different times of day, but today is the first time they have called again in a couple of weeks.
This is harassment, pure and simple. Wake up Wal mart has sent me their propoganda time and time again. I called them and told them to take me off their list. Since I did that, they've called me at all hours of the day and night. I've got it all saved on caller ID and am turning it over to the state A.G. This is bulls$%t
They called twice today and I didn't answer. They didn't leave a message.
I don't answer 1-800 calls, so if it's important, they better leave a message.
Called today to leave a message referring the website "wakeupwalmart.com". Nothing in the message referred to a way to get off their list or who's really behind the message. This is the second time this site's called and left a recorded message and I'm starting to get ticked off.
I'm in New Orleans and they have been calling at least five times a day for the past two days. I think they should revise the do not call program to have a way that we can choose not to receive calls from pollsters (right now they are excluded from the law and they are really taking advantage of it) - I guess there is nothing we can do to avoid the calls. This is my cellphone so the calls follow me everywhere and it's REALLY ANNOYING. Only the number shows up.
Receiving calls from this number in New Orleans. I don't answer and they don't leave a message but based on the about posts, I suspect it is regarding the upcoming Jefferson/Carter runoff.
The same thing's happening to me in New Orleans... There's no election. What gives?
I called back and left a message telling them to take me off. I guess we'll see what happens.
Just got a call this morning, hung up, called back, got the voicemail box. A day after the election, I'd say it's a little late.
Frequently call and hangs up once answered. This is also a Do Not Call violation. Cannot seem to stop them.
Now they are calling telling people to vote yes on the deceitful Missouri Stem Cell Initiative - Amendment 2 - designed to entrench the right to create-to-destroy human embryos into the Missouri constitution.
The initiative is advertise d as a ban on cloning. They redefine cloning - don't be fooled. Missorians who are against human cloning should be voting NO not yes.

We get bombed with these calls 2-4 times a day, we are sick of them. If this is how gov't people want to be ekected then cut the phone calls to us. They are annoying and a pain. We also will not anse=wer the phone when this numbers pops up!
Got a call from TCG. It was a two question poll for an Assembly race near where I live. When I asked for more information about who the company was, they refused to provide me with a website and with any information. They took my name down and said that they would have a supervisor call...we will see.
Comes up Unknown caller, never leaves message.
I've been getting calls from "800 Service" all the time. I usually wait about 5 seconds, then say Hello, and don't get a response in 2 seconds and hang up, but this time, I said nothing, and after about 20 seconds, someone said hello, and I said Hello, and then started talking about some political thing. I put it on mute, and they eventually hung up.
my phone is an unlisted number, yet I recieve
calls usually every day, usually about 2pm from this number.
not provided on the caller id.
There was actually a person there when I answered, but my kid's school rang in at the same time, so--I clicked over to THAT call...
Same thing here.
I checked out the comments from Wombat & D Cassidy
(both listed below) & I have checked out both web sites and was just wondering... based on what D. Cassidy said about Teleport Communications Group being purchased by AT&T, is anyone else a current or previous customer of AT&T? These calls seemed to start coming in since I switched phone service from AT&T to another carrier.
Just wondering if there is a connection here...
I got the call today. Two times, then I answered, the guy asked for me by name. He sounded strange. Freaked me out. Googled the # and found this site. Great place. Everything I needed to know about the #, right there. Thx for the info. I will block the #.
They call every day at least 2 times, during the week usually in the morning then around noon. Never leaves a message. I called them and left a message to leave me a message or to never call again. Haven't heard from them yet that was 4 hours ago.
Calls constantly and never answers when line is picked up. Called number back no one ever answers. Voice recorded states TCGs toll free hotline and to leave your number and purpose of your call. no
This number is from a politician (Al Sturby?). There is silence for 32 seconds, then it goes into a recording asking me to vote for him on Nov. 7th. Like I am going to vote for someone who calls me every day to harrass me.
BUREA OF NATIONAL AFFAIRS
Gov. Bredesen's campaign number is 615-256-4480
My call had a recording of Phil Bredeson, the gov of Tennessee, asking me to "vote for his dear friend" Coleman during the upcoming election. what is funny is I voted earlier today, and voted against his "dear friend".
This call was to my cell phone.
Will file a complaint with his campaign.
I get at least a couple calls from them every day. Never anything or anyone on the other end. I got the "TCG hotline mailbox full" message when I called back.
I work for Turner Consulting Group, the company at tcg.com, and these calls are NOT coming from us.
You are probably looking for Teleport Communications Group, a large telephone and cable company, that was purchased in 1997 by AT&T. All requests that previously went to that TCG should now go to AT&T. Simply call them, tell them you're looking for TCG, and (if you reach someone sufficiently knowledgeable) they will have no trouble helping you.
We're sorry you're confused - we thought it was pretty clear that tcg.com is no longer owned by a telephone company but we're happy to help.
Our company does not conduct any automated dialing or random calling, for any purpose whatsoever.
Got my first call today from this number and judging from the prior posts here, probably not my last. Not surprising to hear that it might be a political polling call. I've been getting carpet-bombed by weird "TOLL FREE CALL" and "UNKNOWN NAME" caller ID's for over a month now. I'm rarely home when they call and even if I am I won't answer. They never leave messages either. I can only hope that when election day passes they will subside.
I've gone to tcg.com
It seems like a good candidate for the telephone abuse. I will email at least someone there to determine if they are the culprits. Perhaps, if it is they and they get enough emails, they will take the time and money to fix their self-reputation destroying problem.
calls several times a day, will not identify themselves, i called back and got a recording that the voicemailbox was full. ARGH
I answered the call and they were bashing Clay Shaw.
Shannon - Do you work for Taunton?
I've been getting these calls too. They hang up when I answer. Same message when I try calling back.
I can tell everyone what this is now that I spoke to them. They're basically a research company doing polling for the upcoming election. They want to know who you're most likely to vote for. They asked me about the senate and congressional race.
Called multiple times. Once while finally home I picked up and they asked for my wife by name. I told the woman she wasn't available and she said she'd call back and hung up. My call blocking didn't accept number.
Caller ID read TOLL FREE NUMBER, 1-800-260-9125, 11:00 AM, OCT. 16
My cell says "Name Unknown" and I get the same answering machine as everybody else when I return the call. I got the call on Friday and again today, Monday.
Connecticut,
Called and asked for me. My wife told them I was unavailable and they refused to leave a message even after she identified herself as my wife.
Calls every day. Says "unknown caller" on my caller ID. No one on the other end. Never leaves a message.
Has called twice today and three times yesterday. Who are they?
I answered phone and they hung up.
Annoying as hell...
none
Caller ID shows the 800 number, but never leaves a message. I never answer because I don't recognize the number....
Same thing. Calls, no reason, no message.
10/05/06 11:12am. No message.
unknown name- 800 260 9125; They call and hang up- returned call and only recieved that it was TCG tol free hotline. I requested a number removal since i was on the Do not call list
Calls at least once a day, & never leaves a message. Caller id only provides the number, when called it says "welcome to TCG toll-Free" and tells you to leave a message.
Also get calls from this number constantly but without a message left on answering machine. Caller ID said "Not Available." Callback indicates TCG Hotline and asks for information on why I'm calling.
Calls Constantly--Nvr leaves message. Recalled--Voice message says--You're reached TCG's toll free hotline. At the tone please leave your phone number and the purpose of your call. No prompt to be excluded from solicitation.
Phone showed "INCOMPLETE DATA" with no number, used *69 to retrive. When answering, only silence was on the line, hung up after a few seconds.
Tried calling on Skype, phone ringed a few times and automatic voicemail picked up.
"... the voice mailbox belonging to" followed by a good ten/twenty seconds of pure silence.
