Have you registered your cell phone yet on the national Do Not Call registry? Cell phones are "going public" -- ie, all cell phone numbers are being released to telemarketing companies and you will soon start to receive sales calls - for which you may be charged depending on your calling plan.(I got my first telemarketing call on my cell phone last night!)
To prevent this, call the following number from your CELL phone:
888-382-1222.
This is the National Do Not Call list. It only takes a minute to block your number for five (5) years. But you MUST call FROM the cell phone number that you want to have blocked. (You can not call from a different phone number.) Spread the word, please!
I did mine a couple of weeks ago and got 3 text messages last week and 1 today. Maybe it takes a bit to register???
ReplyDeleteThey said it could take a month before the blocking began - be patient. :-)
