Default No call list

Ok for all you cell phone users.

All cell phone numbers in the US will be released to the telemarketing firms at the end of next month.

If you do not wish to be called by everyone and their brothers who want to sell you something after that date

Call the national NO CALL LIST number at 1.888.382.1222

It takes one minute of your time and keeps you off the new list for 5 years.

Dave

I have determined that most mechanical / electrical challanges are directly connected to the nut that connects the steering wheel to the drivers seat.

I'm sorry but I've been told like 3 times that they will be releasing phone numbers and I've never blocked mine and never gotten a single call.....

A great reminder for everyone with new phone numbers to register, but this info comes out about once a year and is incorrect.


From the DoNotCall faq (http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/edu/pubs/cons...ts/alt107.shtm): "You may have received an email telling you that your cell phone is about to be assaulted by telemarketing calls as a result of a new cell phone number database; however, that is not the case. FCC regulations prohibit telemarketers from using automated dialers to call cell phone numbers. Automated dialers are standard in the industry, so most telemarketers don’t call consumers on their cell phones without their consent."

and your registration doesn't expire "Telephone numbers on the registry will only be removed when they are disconnected and reassigned, or when the consumer chooses to remove a number from the registry."

You check or verify your registration here:
