Received a phone call on my work phone and cell phone from 702-835-8602. The only information I can find on this number is that it is located in Nevada; probably Las Vegas. What is weird is when I called the number back, it delivers a sales pitch about that I have been approved for a credit card, cash advances, etc. It states to leave your name and phone number, but then it says the mailbox is unable to take message.
I am on a "Do Not Call List" and want to rack it to them for calling me. Any ideas on how to do this?
I defenitely do no want whatever they are selling, etc.

We are also on the Do Not Call list and I received a call from the same number. They stated my husband was approved for a 7500.00 credit card. I hung up. Yes is out of Las Vegas, Nevada. That is what came up on the caller id @10:30am this morning.

I thought it was strange he would be approved for a 7500.00 credit card when were in debt consolidation. I am going to the Do Not Call website now and filing a complaint.

I have received this call as well, three days in a row. Someone email me at [email address removed per forum rules] and let me know if you find out exactly where they are calling from and how to reach a live company!

The company that is calling everyone is called CreditPlus Rewards. They offer an online credit card that is allowed to make merchant purchases online. Most of these cards require a bank account, as they will deduct your purchases automatically.
Their address is:
505 E. Windmill Lane #1B-201
Las Vegas, NV 89123
Toll-free 800# is 800-975-5642
They also mention of a credit card (MasterCard) when you return the phone call on your caller ID 702-835-8602.
You can view their website for more information at creditplusrewards.com, as the BBB site has just started a new file on this company.
Regards-
Mike

I have been receiving calls from this number, and the automated system keeps delivering a message, and then says the mail box to leave messages on is full. Caller ID says it is from The Selling Source. When I called the number, back into recorded information loop. I have been called sevral times a day by the auto system. I also am listed on the National DNC List. I am about to report this as abuse to Qwest.

Then those types aren't any more than a regular 'debit card', right? Shirley

I am getting calls from this # at both my home and place of employment. I have asked them twice not to call my POE because I can get fired. They call almost everyday. I obtained a fax # for them:
702 835 8699

Myndee, can you tell us what type of calls are they related with? If they are marketing calls for some credit, you can contact the Direct Marketing Association at the address given above. You can also contact the three national credit bureaus and enable the Opt Out feature in your credit file.
