1. The statement that staying on the line after a three second pause acknowledges that you are the person they name is a bunch of s**t... how, as in my case, is a machine supposed to know to disconnect?
2. Allowing three seconds to allow the person to listen in private is funny... If I picked up the phone, would not the message be private anyway since the phone would be to my ear?
3. I have had this # for over four years now. I receive calls several times a month from "financial" institutions looking for Tracy Lester. No matter how many times I tell the callers that I do not know the person and ask that my number be disassociated with Ms. Lester, the calls continue.
Had this message on my answering machine today:
