Do you have a home phone and a cell phone anymore??? We decided about 4 yrs ago to go with a home phone and just use our cell phones. We have our cell phone #'s on the DO NOT CALL LIST, yet we both keep getting calls. Talk about annoying. So today I was out talking to my neighboors, there were 6 differents families out talking and they too have dropped their home phone and use only cell #'s now and they to are on the list and still get the calls.
So what do you guys have for your phone? Home phone, Cell phone, or Both??? Do you get solicitation calls even when your suppose to be on the DO NOT CALL LIST???

We got rid of our land lines for two reasons. 1st reason was the solicitations and the 2nd was why pay for both. Most people I know use their cell phones only and the ones that do have land lines only have them because their cell phones don't get good reception at home. Funny thing is, that we still get solicitation calls on our cell phones! We get one almost every day about the warranty on our car getting ready to expire...we don't have a warranty on our car! We own it outright! We can't seem to stop them from calling because it's always a recording! When you try calling the number back it doesn't work! Now I only answer the phone if I know who's calling. If I don't know, they can leave a message!

Hey Rhonda~
Well your not the only one. We get calls like that at least once a day. Both myself and my husband get the calls. I have stopped answering the calls to unless I know whos calling. Now the calls are coming up as UNKNOWN caller.....uuuggggghhhh

I have both a home phone and cell phones but have never used or gave anyone the number to my home phone.It just came with my cable bundle that I got. I am on the Do not call list and was still receiving calls but when I quit giving out my number they have all stopped. At stores or online when they ask for my number I don't give it to them. Ever since I have stopped doing that I have never had anymore solicitation calls.
