Clientele harassment
I have been continuously HARASSED by Clientele. I am not a member of Clientele and have never given any personal information to them. I have never asked for a quote, contacted them, app****, or anything of the sort. For the last couple of weeks, I have received daily calls from an automated system at all hours of the day and night. This automated system belongs to Clientele and the moment you answer, you hear a robot voice over the phone. I have blocked at least 10 numbers from these calls by now and are still receiving calls from Clientele. This morning, my husband received an SMS containing personal details from my father from Clientele for a healthcare plan. They did not even send the message to the correct person! I have no idea how they even know my husband and my father are related persons. Neither of them have ever been a part of Clientele or enquired anything from them. This is a violation of our privacy and rights and I would strongly urge anyone to stay away from this company and they use your personal info for whatever they like, without ever asking for consent. Horrible marketing strategy!!!
