Up here the limitation on the do not call list excludes newspapers, polling companies, political parties, and companies who you are already a client of.

The problem with these particular telemarketers is that they are using IP phones and spoofing local phone numbers, to the call display function. As a result they slip through and the aggressiveness of their calling is beyond ridiculous.
