Do Not Call List

The national Do Not Call Registry is open for business and even though it doesn't take effect until October 1st, millions of people are adding their numbers to the list. We'll talk about the issues involved in telephone marketing, including where telemarketers stand on the issue and what rights consumers have. Laura's guests are Kristin Spath, Bureau Chief for the Consumer Protection Bureau at the NH Department of Justice, and Jim Demers, an industry lobbyist with The Demers Group. The phone number to be added to the national Do Not Call List is 1-888-382-1222 (TTY 1-866-290-4236). You can also visit the government website at www.donotcall.gov.
