Annoying phone calls
Marketing Services.
Called and outright stated they were AT&T (my cell provider). Called at 7:30 am, which is illegal, and the caller was barely literate and obviously reading from a script (so he was TOLD to claim he was calling from AT&T by the parent company, Market Strategies International, a HUGE infraction of FTC and FCC laws). I hung up after letting him know that it is illegal to call me at that hour of the morning, and that the number he called is registered with the DNC list (not that that's worth anything). I also filed a complaint with the Michigan AG's office (Market Strategies International is headquartered in Michigan), the FTC, the FCC and with donotcall.gov (monitored by the FTC). Again, I doubt those glorified welfare recipients will do anything, but maybe they'll surprise us one day by getting off their lazy butts, stop taking money from companies like this, and actually working for a living. A girl can dream...
Marketing Strategies - mortgage reducation
This number apparently belongs to a marketing company. They call every day more than one time a day. We are on the do-not call register and the number has been blocked on my phone, they continue to call.

This is another of those market research companies that leaches off the information they get from you. They feel that you are nothing more than a resource to be exploited by them... that your time is of no value. The home office address is Market Strategies International, 17430 College Parkway, Livonia, Michigan 48152. The phone number is 734.542.7600 and if you have a problem with them you can contact GREG PETERSON, Senior Vice President of Research (etc, etc). Let him know how you feel about the way they do business... I'm sure he'd love to hear from you too!
