National Do Not Call- Registry

    Home National Do Not Call- Registry

    National Do-Not-Call Registry

    The National Do-Not-Call Registry has been established to offer you a choice about receiving
    telemarketing calls at home. Registering will stop most telemarketing calls but it will not stop calls from
    certain non-profit and political organizations and calls from organizations with which you have
    established a business relationship.

    Consumers can register their residential telephone numbers, including wireless numbers, on the National
    Do-Not-Call Registry by telephone or by Internet at no cost. The number will be on the Do-Not-Call list the
    day after registration; however, telemarketers have up to 31 days to remove the number from their call
    lists. You may register up to three numbers at one time if registering on the Internet. If registering via
    telephone, you can register only one number at a time and you must call from the telephone number you
    are registering. A number can be removed from the Do-Not-Call Registry at anytime.

    To register or remove a number from the Do-Not-Call Registry call 1.888.382.1222, for TTY call
    1.866.290.4236 or register on the Internet at www.donotcall.gov. Additional information can be obtained
    at www.donotcall.gov.

    National Do Not Call Registry: More Information

    Reduce the number of unwanted calls to your home.

    In 2003, due to an increasing number of complaints from consumers around the country, the Federal
    Communications Commission (FCC) established a National Do-Not-Call Registry. This registry is
    nationwide in scope and applies to all telemarketers (with the exception of certain non-profit
    organizations), and covers both interstate and intrastate-telemarketing calls.

    Commercial telemarketers are not allowed to call a consumer’s home if their number is on the registry. As
    a result, consumers can, if they choose, reduce the number of unwanted phone calls to their homes.
    Consumers can register their phone number for free, and it will remain on the national do-not-call list
    for five years. Phone numbers will have to be re-entered onto the list when five years have passed.
    Numbers can be removed at any time.

    The Do-Not-Call Registry will not prevent all unwanted calls. It will not cover the following:
    • Calls from organizations with which consumers have an established business relationship.
    • Calls for which consumers have given prior written consent.
    • Calls which are not commercial or do not include unsolicited advertisements.
    • Calls by or on behalf of tax exempt non-profit organizations.

    How to Register
    Consumers can register online at: www.DoNotCall.gov, or by calling 1-888-382-1222; for TTY call 1-866-
    290-4236. The call must come from the phone number that is to be registered. Consumers can also
    register their wireless phone numbers as well. The federal Do-Not-Call Registry took effect on October 1,
    2003.

    If a consumer receives an unwanted telemarketing call and their phone number has been placed on the
    registry, a compliant can be filed in one of four ways:
    • Send the FCC an e-mail: The address is fccinfo@fcc.gov.
    • Visit the FCC’s web site at www.fcc.gov
    • Call the FCC: 1-888-225-5322 or for TTY dial, 1-888-835-5322
    • Send the FCC a letter. The address is:
    Federal Communications Commission
    Consumer & Governmental Affairs Bureau
    Consumer Inquiries and Complaint Division
    Washington, DC 20554

    Unwanted Sales and Survey Calls
    There are several steps you can take if you receive unwanted sales and/or survey calls:
    • Be skeptical of offers that sound too good to be true; they usually are.
    • Report companies using questionable sales practices to the Better Business Bureau or your state
    Attorney General’s office.
    • Contact the Direct Marketing Association to have your name removed from telephone solicitation
    lists, by writing to: Telephone Preference Service c/o Direct Marketing Association P.O. Box
    9014 Farmingdale, NY 11735-9014

    • Contact the following companies that compile directories and request that your listing be
    removed:

    Equifax
    Attn: List Suppression File
    26955 Northwestern Hwy.
    South Field, MI 48034
    (800) 873-7655

    Experian
    Attn: Data Info Center
    901 West Bond St.
    Lincoln, NE 68521
    (402) 473-9715

    • When you are contacted by telemarketers, request to be put on their “Do Not Call” list.
    • Call your local telephone company to have your name removed at no charge from any lists that
    they may lease to other firms. Customers with non-listed or non-published numbers are never
    included on the lists.
    • Do not give your telephone credit card number to anyone who calls and asks for the number.
    • Screen your calls with an answering machine, voice mail or caller ID service.
    • Get an unlisted phone number. There may be a fee to be unlisted.
    • When calling an “800,” “888,” “877,” “866,” or “900″ number, request that your name, address and
    phone number not be sold or rented and that they not call you in the future.
