FTC Consumer Alert Q&A: The National Do Not Call Registry
Tell Me More About the National Do Not Call Registry
Why would I register my phone number with the National Do Not Call Registry?
The National Do Not Call Registry gives you an opportunity to limit the telemarketing calls you receive. Once you register your phone number, telemarketers covered by the National Do Not Call Registry have up to 31 days from the date you register to stop calling you.
Who manages the National Do Not Call Registry?
The National Do Not Call Registry is managed by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the nation’s consumer protection agency. It is enforced by the FTC, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), and state law enforcement officials.
Why was the National Do Not Call Registry created?
The registry was created to offer consumers a choice regarding telemarketing calls. The FTC’s decision to create the National Do Not Call Registry was the culmination of a comprehensive, three-year review of the Telemarketing Sales Rule (TSR), as well as the Commission’s extensive experience enforcing the TSR over seven years. The FTC held numerous workshops, meetings, and briefings to solicit feedback from interested parties and considered over 64,000 public comments, most of which favored creating the registry. You can review the entire record of the Rule review at
www.ftc.gov/bcp/rulemaking/tsr/tsrrulemaking/index.htm.
How Does Registration Work? How soon after I register will I notice a reduction in calls?
Telemarketers covered by the National Do Not Call Registry have up to 31 days from the date you register to stop calling you.
When I register my phone number, how long until it shows up on the National Do Not Call Registry?
After you register, your phone number will show up on the registry by the next day. Telemarketers have up to 31 days to get your phone number and remove it from their call lists.
What if I change my mind? Can I take my number off the National Do Not Call Registry?
You can delete your phone number only by calling toll-free 1-888-382-1222 from the telephone number you want to delete. After you contact the registry to delete it, it will be removed from the National Do Not Call Registry by the next day. But telemarketers have up to 31 days to access information about your deletion and add your number back to their call lists, if they choose to.
If I registered by phone, will I receive a confirmation?
No, but you can verify that your number is on the registry online at www.donotcall.gov or by calling the registry’s toll-free number (1-888-382-1222) and following the prompts for verifying that your number is on the registry.
I received a phone call from someone offering to put my name on the National Do Not Call Registry. Should I let them?
No. The FTC does not allow private companies or other such third parties to register consumers for the National Do Not Call Registry. Websites or phone solicitations that claim they can or will register a consumer’s name or phone number on the National Do Not Call Registry — especially those that charge a fee — are almost certainly a scam. Consumers may register directly, or through some state governments, but never through private companies. For consumers, the National Do Not Call Registry is a free service of the federal government.

New Book Release - Authored by The Sanctuary's very own Buzz Williams!
Disciple Maker: Crisis of Disobedience
in the Evangelical Church
in the Evangelical Church
M.O. Buzz Williams
AVAILABLE NOW!
America's moral, economic, and leadership decline is symptomatic of a greater problem; that problem is in the weakened fabric of the Evangelical Church.
Liberalism and social justice have supplanted righteousness and holiness.
The result is a weak Church reflective of the European model.
This book calls Church leadership back to the biblical model for making disciples.
The author tackles the difficult aspects of negligent Church leadership, and he exposes those who would intentionally thwart the disciple-making ministry.
The author explains the necessity for appropriating the means of grace, and its centrality for initiating, developing, and perpetuating a disciple-making ministry.
Expect to greatly enlarge your ministry as you, in dependence upon the Holy Spirit, first become a disciple, and then as you produce disciples and disciple makers.
"He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the Churches," Rev. 2:29.
