Federal and Connecticut Law About Telemarketers Contacting You at Your Home

Has your evening or weekend ever been disrupted by a call from a telemarketer?

If so, you’re not alone. In 2003, federal do-not-call legislation was signed into law, and commercial telemarketers must comply with the provisions of the National Do Not Call Registry. The registry is managed by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC); it is a list of telephone numbers from consumers who have indicated their preference to limit the telemarketing calls they receive. The registry applies to any plan, program, or campaign to sell goods and services through interstate phone calls.

You can register your phone numbers for free, and they will remain on the list until you remove them or discontinue service – there is no need to re-register numbers. To register your residential telephone number, including wireless numbers, on the national Do-Not-Call registry go www.donotcall.gov or to register by telephone call 1-888-382-1222. Additionally, you must call from the phone number you wish to register.
