Do I have to re-register for the Do Not Call List?
Wednesday, April 9, 2008
No. Your number will stay on the Do Not Call list unless you direct the Federal Trade Commission to remove it. The FTC no longer requires people to sign up every 5 years. (It is not necessary to register cellphone numbers, since telemarketing to them is illegal.) Sign up at the FTC website, www.donotcall.gov or call 1-800-382-1222. Check, too, to see if your state has a no-call list. Despite the lists, it's impossible to stop all telemarketing call. The best thing to do is hang up and report the offender's number to the FTC. To file a complaint go to www.donotcall.gov and click on the "File A Complaint" button and follow the instructions.
