A great reminder…to block that call...

This is kind of funny coming from a sales guy but for those of us who do not care for being bothered by sales calls from telemarketers, registering on the “National Do Not Call List” is a great idea. One thing not known to many is that cell phones become fair game starting this month. For most of us that means getting billed for those unwanted incoming calls.


If you register now it will take 31 days before telemarketers are to cease calling. So just after the New Year you should be free of most annoying calls, at least from telemarketers.

There are a couple of ways to register your phones; the easiest is to call 888-382-1222 from the phone that you would like have registered. The other is to go to the National Do Not Call Registry website, there you can register you can register numerous phone numbers.

Once your number is registered it will not expire. Telephone numbers placed on the National Do Not Call Registry will remain on it permanently due to the Do-Not-Call Improvement Act of 2007, which became law in February 2008.
