The Federal government created the national registry to make it easier and more efficient for the consumers to stop getting telemarketing calls they do not want. They can register online at WWW.DONOTCALL.GOVor call toll-free, 1-888-382-1222 (TTY 1-866-290-4236) from the number they wish to register. Registration is free. The Federal Trade Commission, the Federal Communications Commission, and the states are enforcing the National Do Not Call Registry. Placing their number on the registry will stop most, but not all, telemarketing • National Do Not Call Registry • http://www.ftc.gov/donotcall

  21. Do Not Call List • How does the CSR know which customers do not want to be called? • The do not call potential customers will be highlighted in red with the letters DNC written next to the phone numbers in the customers individual records in the company’s sales database.

And some States (Like California) are issuing citations based on the National List, but under a new tougher set of State DNC Laws passed January 1, 2005. • (http://www.donotcallprotection.com/do_not_call_chart.shtml)
