CenturyLink Caller ID a waste of money Credit Card sales call shows my name and Ph.# on caller ID

many sales calls have fake IDs showing on caller ID. And is the national do not call list turned off? No enforcement? It's just like the bad old days of junk phone calls.

works wonders for us. Some stuff still gets through but it really catches the majority.

I think you have to use VOIP or some other service that allows "simulring" so they can sniff the call and ditch it before you get it though.

I'll see the phone light up like a call is about to come through but I don't even get a single ring if it's shit canned.
