Madison - Starting today, cell phone users for the first time will be able to add their numbers to the state's popular do-not-call list." JS Online: No-call registry expands to cells


"This is in response to consumers' concerns about telemarketing over their cell phones," said Jim Rabbit, director of the Bureau of Consumer Protection at the state Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection. "Cell phone minutes cost money, unlike your hard line minutes."

The addition of cell phone numbers to the no-call list was part of the budget repair bill signed last month by Gov. Jim Doyle. Residents have until the end of August to be added to the list, and a new list will be provided to telemarketing companies in October.


This is from my May 1st blog post.

From Mark Block from April 20th.
I still didn't do it! I always like to procrastinate.

REMINDER….12 days from today ( do by Friday) , all cell phone numbers are beingreleased to telemarketing companies and you will start to receive salescalls.……YOU WILL BE CHARGED FOR THESE CALLSTo prevent this , call the following number from your cellphone:
888-382-1222.

It is the National DO NOT CALL list. It will only take a minute of your time.It blocks yo ur number for five (5) years.You must call from the cell phone number you want to have blocked.You cannot call from a different phone number.



How many people commented to me including my son that we didn't have to do this! Shows how ignorant the public can be, or is it because a conservative gives people advice, they cannot believe them. IDIOTS. Now the state is getting a soft fuzzy. Thank God we have people like Mark Block at AFP. Mark, what would we do without you.
