Do Not Call My Cell Phone

Reblogger Debbe Perry

This is fantastic information for the Do Not Call List for cell phones. I really, really, really don't want cold calls while driving in the car with clients - disruptive AND dangerous! I'm going to call right now...

Did you know that Cell Phone Numbers Go Public this month and that telemarketing companies will now be able to get all those numbers for  sales calls, too?  Nothing wrong with a little cold calling, right?  What if it costs you to receive that call?  Because you will be charged unless you have unlimited calling, since it's your cell phone.

To avoid those annoying and possibly expensive calls, call the  National DO NOT CALL List from your cell phone.  888-382-1222.
I just did it, and it took under 60 seconds. You have to call from the phone number you want to have blocked. It blocks your number for five (5) years.

I am already getting the solicitations on the cell phone unfortunately.

I heard of a number that was a do not call number. Appearantly, by calling this number you were actually being put on a solicitation list. Too bad for me.

Good to see you did some research on the matter.

The amount of solicitation calls I am receiving is ridiculous.......I hope this Do Not Call list helps.
