Casa Jay 14 Nov 2007 | 1 reply called asking if I had live music at my business te replies to Casa Jay 7 May 2008 It is a # from BMI, the organization that is involved with royalties paid for having live entertainment at an establishment such as a bar. scottieb 3 Mar 2009 Own a small Neighborhood pub not much bigger than a walk-in closet. The same thing happens to me. Wouldn't even know where to PUT a band if we had one.

3Q Fitness 29 Jul 2009 Called asking what services we offered & said they were moving here from out of town. We are a Dallas #.

Caller: Broadcast Music BD 27 Aug 2009 We get harassing phone calls from this company about a music license for our business - we play the radio! We keep telling them that but they continue to call, almost daily, a different person each time. Now we just hang up without even talking to them.

Caller: Broadcast Music Controllede Burn Fitness 16 Sep 2009 Just got a strange call from these people. The girl kept calling me hon and darling and sweetie.

Asked me if I taught group fitness classes. She asked totally strange questions that a potential client would never ask. I knew it was a bogus call because of the caller ID and her strange way of calling me all those "sweetie" words.

Caller: Broadcast Music somebidder 16 Sep 2009 yeh, they called me about a house party I'm having, and keep asking me about the music...what is WRONG with these peeps? next thing y'know, they're gonna want money if I play my car stereo with friendz in the car.

Caller: BMI Phone Service Provider 7 Jan 2010 This number was used for attempted fraud in a few instances through a service my company offers. I suspect it is in fact an access number to some long-distance calling card company, and is being used for carrier-hopping to make it difficult to trace the actual caller. carol 9 Sep 2010 Just recieved a call from a lady telling me i can't play CD's in my business.I simply made the reply that I don't play CD's.She wanted to know what I use the play music in my business. I told her internet serves.

She said i can't do that either.i have to buyt permission to use this program.

Here's what I think, the sevices where offered to me to play in my business, I paid for the services and and I have the right to listen to the music in full room or an empty room, open business or closed business!

This is sad we have people telling us what we don't have the right to listen to. What gave them the right to tell us that?

The Body Shop Fitness Center 28 Mar 2013 This number is harassing the business owner of a small gym for music fees. The gym has 1 small TV for the members to watch & the only music played in the gym is from members' own ipods or MP3 players, usually with earphones. I checked online with the SBA (Small Business Administration). The business is not in violation & does not owe any music fees. Our advice is to report them to your State Attorney General's Office of Consumer Affairs for extortion.

Caller: "Broadcast Music" on caller ID crackle 23 Jun 2014 BMI Agents. If you don't answer they will call you twice a week for about a month, and eventually stop calling. They focus regions in waves trying to intimidate businesses into licensing. If you do answer tell them you'll read the information that they have mailed to you, and then block the phone number.
