The National Do Not Call Registry

the test of the success of the do not call registry is you not getting calls. If you are not getting calls very often then it is working pretty well. You are all hung up on wanting to know what one company has done to honor your wishes. What you fail to realize is that no where in this scheme is there a mandate for an information push to those consumers whom want information. Answering questions takes time and money, and your government has decided that answering individual questions is an unfair burden on the business community. Your government has not made your desire for information a priority.

What you should do is chill out until such time as this company calls you again, and then if they do call stop them in mid sentence and say only that you wish to be removed from their calling list. Generally requests for removal are honored, because these guys who call on commission have no desire to waste their time on someone who will not listen to the pitch.

Very few people who report something negative done to them would be satisfied with a system in which they can never discover what, if anything was done. Surely this is obvious just on the face of it.

I submit that you are a freak for devoting so much energy to this one call. All normal people care only that their phone line is rarely clogged with telemarketing calls.

YOU are not paying attention, you do not understand the purpose of the no not call registry.

You will never know what happened basically, half of the customer service reps you talk to are just kids, they probably don't even follow through with adding you to this list. When I was younger I worked for a telemarketing company that sold vacations and in Florida we have the DNCR, and if we didn't notify that the person asked to be put on this list and called them back they could report it to the Better Business Bureau and the company could get fined. You would never know the outcome, and you would have to follow through with a complaint for anyone to even find out that you told them to add this to your list and the company didn't comply, which most people probably wouldn't even bother with. Basically yes you will never know an outcome,noone is going to call you and say "your on the list, you won't recieve any other calls" etc.
