How do they get around that list? Is there a way to report these places to make sure they dont call me? I am so fed up with these people. I work second shift so after my kid gets on the bus, I try to get a another hour of sleep before I have to start getting ready for work and atleast 2 days a week they call and wake me up with some stupid shit.
From donotcall.gov:

29. If I register my number on the National Do Not Call Registry, will it stop all telemarketing calls?

No. Placing your number on the National Do Not Call Registry will stop most telemarketing calls, but not all. Because of limitations in the jurisdiction of the FTC and FCC, calls from or on behalf of political organizations, charities, and telephone surveyors would still be permitted, as would calls from companies with which you have an existing business relationship, or those to whom you’ve provided express agreement in writing to receive their calls.

The ones that piss me off are the exisiting relationship ones. I get calls from my credit card companies all the time...
