More Do Not Call Protection

These Telemarketing Laws are for Phone Solicitors calling States with No Call Laws. Telemarketers must be aware of State, National "Do Not Call Law" and Direct Marketing Association "No Call Law" written for consumers wanting to stop telemarketing calls. No phone solicitation law, rules and regulations are constantly changing, and "No Call Law" violations can carry serious fines and associated legal fees. Please click on the following links for the latest on "Do Not Call Law" and Legislation. And check out our look into the archives of Copilevitz & Canter - #1 "No Call List" Attorneys in the Country.

FTC Fines are now $16,000. per violation. The FCC says it "will default to the more stringent of the two whether State or Federal DNC Laws". And some States (Like California) are issuing citations based on the National List.

When working with Predictive Dialers (not automatic dialers, as they are now illegal with few exceptions) please note the following FTC regulations: 1. No more than 3% of outbound calls may be abandoned 2. Calls not connected to an agent within two seconds must hear a pre-recorded message stating the name and phone number of the calling party. 3. Must not disconnect unanswered calls in less than 15 seconds or 4 ring cycles. 4. Caller ID must be provided by outbound calls. 5. Outbound calls must adhere to State and Federal permitted time calling windows, including time zone changes. (ie it's the time in the place your calling to that counts!).

Also note: The FTC demands you download their list every 30 days. Wireless and wireless portability every 15 days. Wireless numbers may not be called with auto or predictive dialers, only hand dialing. Do Not Call Protection represents the top companies in the Do Not Call Compliance business with a perfect 6 year track record.
