Telemarketers to call your cell phone

Don't want telemarketers calling your cell phone?

It's bad enough when they call you on your home phone at dinner time or just as that exciting program is ending at 8:57PM. But now they can call you on your cell phone.

Want to put a stop to those calls? Call (888) 382-1222 from your cell phone. It's easy and fast (and free) to register.

Telemarketers, by law, must stop calling you after 31 days after you register. If they still call, you can file a complaint at www.donotcall.gov or by calling the above number.

You must have the telemarketer's company name and its phone number; get the individual's name, too.

Some people make a business out of filing complaints and collecting some or all of the penalty. I don't know how it works. Do your homework, if you are interested.
