I really don’t know how many times I have to tell these people to stop calling! It’s for saving $ on power supply.. Great - tell someone who cares!

I’ve blocked their number but are still getting through.. When the person said they understand my request I replied with no you understand. Remove my number as I don’t have time for nuisance calls..
