Cell Phone Numbers Go Public this month...

Cell phone numbers are being released to telemarketing companies shortly, and you'll probably start to receive sales calls. You may be charged for these calls and/or use up plan minutes, depending on your cell phone plan.

To prevent this, call the following number from your cell phone: 888-382-1222.

(This works for home phones too)

It is the National "DO NOT CALL" list. It takes about 30 seconds of your time, and blocks your 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.

Feel free to forward this to family and friends.

The real trouble with reality is that there's no background music.

We have a do not call list in Canada.. I called it with my house phone and cell phone number. Soon After I called and registered my numbers is when I started getting telemarketer calls. I had none to my cell, and very few to my landline prior to registering them. I wasn't the only one either that had the same issue.


Hopefully yours is better than ours was.
