Do Not Call registry

Ask Us continues to get lots of questions about the Do Not Call phone registry. Here are some answers to the most common questions, according to the Federal Trade Commission, which runs the list:

• The number to register is 888-382-1222. The website is www.donotcall.gov .

• Telemarketers have up to 31 days from the date you register to stop calling you.

• You can register cell phone numbers as well as land line numbers.

• Once registered, a number stays on the list as long as it is assigned to the same person. The system automatically removes numbers that are disconnected or reassigned.

• If you get a new number you must register that number to be on the list.

• The list does not prohibit calls from political organizations, charities, telephone surveyors or debt collectors. Also, companies with which you have a business relationship can still call you even if your number is on the list, unless you tell them not to.

• If you think a call is violating the Do Not Call rules, keep track of the time the call occurred, the number called and the party making the call. You can file a complaint at complaints.donotcall.gov .
