Turns out these rings are almost certainly Nielsen survey solicitations. Callers dial early mornings and late evenings, often multiple times a day, pressing you for opinions on TV or radio ratings and sometimes slipping a one‑dollar “gift” to sweeten the ask. While the outreach is legal, the frequency can feel harassing, especially for folks on the Do‑Not‑Call registry. The safest move is to opt‑out directly with Nielsen—most scripts include a polite request to be removed—or use your phone’s blocking feature and report the number to the FTC. If the calls persist, consider filing a complaint with the FCC’s robocall complaint portal.
