I receive a call from this company on a daily basis at my place of business. I have told them repeatedly that we are not interested, and each time I am met with threats and verbal abuse by their representatives.
Their caller ID used to say "Anonymous", but now it shows the name of University Sports Publications.
Here's how each telephone call goes:
The rep asks to speak with the business owner. When I ask where they are calling from they reply, "The University of Florida", (one of our clients). I ask again just to confirm, "You are an employee at the Univeristy of Florida?" Their answer is always yes.
When I ask what the nautre of the call is...this is when they begin to get nasty, "We're your client, so just put the owner on the phone now." When I refuse, the namecalling begins.
The next call I received, I changed my tactic. I said that I had spoken to the Owner about the prior calls and he indicated that he is not interested in your service and asked that you place our telephone number on their Do Not Call list. More verbal abuse ensues.
The calls continue each day and now I just hang up when I see University Sports Publications on the display.
The sales tactics of the University Sports Publications representatives are horrendous. They lie about who they represent. I spoke to my contact at the University of Florida and they tell me that they have absolutely no affiliation with University Sports Publications and suggest I report them...so, that's what I'm doing.
