So it is 8:44 am and my phone rings
and it is the suffolk police association asking for money.
This makes me SO MAD!!!!!!! I happen to be awake, but dh isn't. So I said to him- "we are asleep" (why I felt I owed him and explanation and didn't just hang up I don't know) and he says "well, I'll just be a minute".
So I told him again we were sleeping and he got annoyed and said he would call back later.
There is NO WAY IN HELL I would ever give money to someone who called me and asked for a donation before 10 am on any day, especially a weekend. I pretty much hate it when people call me and ask for money at all.
Does this make anyone else nuts, too?

Its a scam, cops do not call up people asking for money.

Re: So it is 8:44 am and my phone rings
They were calling our house non stop a few months ago. I told them I didn' feel comfortable giving money to them over the phone because it didn't say anything about the police association on my caller ID.
I also have dell computers calling here all hours of the night looking for julie. I don't know how many times I have to tell them Julie isn't at this number!

Re: So it is 8:44 am and my phone rings
I get that call every year and the guy is really pushy. They called my Mom at 8:30 the other night and when she said she already gave to our local PBA, he got snippy with her. She hung up on him.

Re: So it is 8:44 am and my phone rings
That is ridiculous. CC companies are not allowed to call after a certain time, and really there should be policies about calling before a certain time. Honestly, if my phone rang that early my first feelign would be nervousness- who calls so early unless it's an emergency? 
DH and I had our phone hooked up for less than a week when we got a call from the PBA. I made a donation (small) but now they ALL call- volunteer ambulance, etc.
