GoDaddy is blowing up my phone

[campout]

Within the last 19 minutes, I have received 10 automated phone calls from (480) 505-8877, which is the GoDaddy Support phone number.

What's worse is the calls are actually leaving partial voicemails if I don't pick them up, so my voicemail is filling up and requires constant listening to / deletion of the voicemails.

The call gives an option to opt out of further calls by hitting 8, which I did -- but they are continuing unabated.

(Getting another one right now as I type, actually.)

Is anyone else getting these all of a sudden?

That sounds like a glitch in their system.

I get one of these calls once a month from GoDaddy, and when I ask my account manager about them, he says that there is no record of why they are calling me. It's very strange.

They miss you

I get them all the time. Not sure what's worse, them calling my phone or that chat box popping up on their site asking if it can help me.

I keep getting text messages from Godaddy saying I only have 2 hours to order a logo from them. Very annoying.

Somebody really likes you..

I get calls from them everyday. But luckily they have my cell phone number(not my home or office number) and I have a call blocker app installed. It was so irritating because if you cut a call they'll call back from a different number. It took 15 days for my call blocker to identify all the numbers.

Now since a couple of months. It's very peaceful.

There are caller ID apps which could disguise calls from someone else. Maybe it's not GD...

Scams here in Asia, calls people with caller ID displaying police, banks etc

Probably a temporary glitch, I'm sure it would go away soon. Wouldn't stress about it too much for now...(I'm assuming it's only be today)

If you start getting voicemail's from them asking you "Who's your Daddy?" - Then it's time to get worried, very worried...lol

It hasn't re-occurred since that spate of calls last week.

Oh we will find you with other numbers now

I'm kidding of course. If you, or Nat, or anyone doesn't want to receive calls from us there is a way to set that in your account. I will paste a link to an article that tells you how to set contact preferences in your account. You can just go turn off all calls or sales calls etc right through there.

Sounds like something broke on our side for this kind of thing to happen. Sorry about that. If it happens again please let me know.

Wov. I just realised it was set on yes. Thanks for your help Joe Styler. I've just set it no.

Though I am happy now but I also feel godaddy agents could have helped me with this when they called me. I did pick up the calls a few times and politely asked that you have been calling me for 4 days straight, and I am not interested in renewal deals from you, can you stop calling me. They simply apologised and kept the phone instead of helping me with this.
