    That's not enough!
    They are not worth the effort to click to empty the spam folder. For me the very act of doing anything about them, on any regular basis, is too degrading.

    I thought it was just me pissed off but I am glad I am not an isolated mad case, looks like my resentment is shared by more.

    A sample: What are they gonna charge for UCR - less than 5 minutes of mouse clicking?

    All right...looks like I am spamming now...but I had to let it out.

    Mine wanted $199 to file UCR this morning. Then they called and wanted to do my bi annual 150 update even though I've only been in business a little over a year.

    It's all just part of the grand sinister plan to have guberment intervine in everything.

    Has anyone ever once gotten their car's warranty extended?

    No, but I've been playing phone tag for years with someone who's very concerned that my warranty is about to expire, and is trying to give one last chance to extend it...maybe one day we'll connect and get it extended :confused:

    Every time they call……even on the cars I haven’t owned in years. I’m covered till 2123. You can never have too much coverage.

    All though the phone calls can be quite annoying I also find them extremely entertaining when I on a long run and I have a fresh clock to waste their time.
    I like to give them every obscure scenario I can think of and then ask them how it would be covered?
    I also like to play a fun game to see how long I can keep them on the phone.
    My record so far is 11 minutes but I am hopeful that I can break the 15 minute mark soon lol

    I try to get them to hang up on me.
    Quickest way so far is saying “ no English”
    I get calls all the time trying to get my Medicare number, ain’t gonna happen.

    I had issues with DOT Compliance Group two years ago. I let them have it via email and phone that I thought they were despicable in that they charge way too much for services that we are all capable of doing on our own for FREE. I was able to get refunds for some of it. I asked them to stop contacting me and made it clear that I do not authorize them to charge my credit card for anything in the future. I continue to receive emails from them on a regular basis, I have just ignored them. Until this morning when I got one stating that they had tried to charge my credit card for an invoice for filing our Biennial Update. I called them(had to leave a message) and I emailed them. I informed them that I did not authorize them to charge my credit card, albeit, it was denied, and that I was going to report them to the BBB and possibly take legal action for their unauthorized attempt to take money from me. I got an email within minutes informing me that my "account is closed as of today". So, perhaps threatening them with legal action is the trick to getting them to leave us the h**l alone!
