National Do Not Call Registry

At work, three of our four incoming lines were formerly residential lines, and we have become accustomed to two or three telephone solicitations per line per day, usually robocalls.   Even when one just ignores the line because it isn’t the main number, it is still very annoying and a break in one’s concentration.  

Tuesday, I finally took the time to enter the three lines into the National Do Not Call Registry. I didn’t expect to see any effect for the month or so that the law allows the telemarketers to scrub their lists, but today we had just one  non-legitimate call.  I’ll be very interested to see if this is just a fluke.

One thought on “National Do Not Call Registry”

  1. RE: Do Not Call. Did you know that political calls are exempt?

    These calls are an epidemic and are invading the privacy of All American Voters.

    Our members are taking a stand and saying enough is enough at the National Political Do Not Contact Registry at StopPoliticalCalls.org.

    Here is a quote from a member this morning:

    “I find it very frustrating… I tend to get calls at the WORST time. I have a one year old daughter, and it NEVER fails that the phone will ring when I put her down for a nap or for bed. Also my vote is PRIVATE… so who do you think you are calling with a survey to find out who I am voting for!!! Stop calling me.”
