According to the Federal Trade Commission Web pages on the Do Not Call
registry, the federal law was changed so that Do Not Call registration
becomes permanent. Also, telephone numbers aren't removed from the list,
unless someone calls a specific toll-free number from the registered
number itself.
Do numbers get removed from the list when telephone service is disconnected?
Are telephone companies required to report actions disconnecting
telephone numbers to the Do Not Call registry?
Does a land-line number becoming a ported number get it removed from the
database? After all, telemarketers are required to avoid calling numbers
known to be cell phone number, I'll guess by prefix and on the ported
number database.
While I'm aware that the Do Not Call registry does not apply to
charities, political organizations, and pollsters, are there any
restrictions on unsolicited calls from those entities to known cell
phone numbers? Lately I've been getting recorded political messages.
