Question
How do I block telemarketers from calling me on my BSU/NTC phone?
Answer
Say “do-not-call” to unwanted telemarketers.
A national Do-Not-Call Registry has been established to address unwelcome telemarketing calls. The registry applies to all telemarketers, with the exception of businesses with whom you have an existing relationship and certain non-profit and political organizations. Commercial telemarketers are not allowed to call you if your number is listed on the registry.
Consumers may register their residential and wireless telephone numbers on the national Do-Not-Call Registry at no cost, either by telephone or via the Internet.
- To register by telephone, call 1-888-382-1222
- For TTY, call 1-886-290-4336
You must call from the telephone number you wish to register. You also may register or obtain additional information, via the Internet at www.donotcall.gov. Inclusion of your telephone number on the national Do-Not-Call Registry will be effective 31 days following your registration. Your number will remain on the registry permanently. You can also remove your number from the list at any time.
