Data is becoming a tough game to play in. Carriers block a lot of things you never see or realize. You can dial and never ring on all ATT phones and not know it.


If youre buying data and you're having issues you should consider if its mobile or landlines you're calling. If mobile you might be blocked by a carrier. In the mobile space 3 companies control 95% of the phones, in the landline space there's dozens of providers so being blocked by 1 mobile carrier hurts more than one landline provider.

Most people have a crossroads to pick. Stay with data and fight the carriers and merchants who don't want the calls or work optin leads and show good behavior to the carriers and they will let you ring on the other end.

People are annoyed at telemarketers its only a matter of time before the practice dies out in favor of another process.
