Cell phones and telemarketers - please read

I just got this from I guy that I work with. I can't believe those jerkoff telemarketers are now going to be calling cell phones!

'In a few weeks, cell phone numbers are being released to telemarketing companies and you will start to receive sales calls. Call this number (must be from your cell phone) 888-382-1222. It is the national Do Not Call list. It blocks your number for 5 years. Please pass this information on to anyone you know. '

I heard this from a friend of friend that works at a cell phone co. Here's the web site for the DNC registry: DNC registry link

Re: Cell phones and telemarketers - please read

for about a year the only phone number i had was my cell phone since i didn't have a need for a house phone so i used to get them alllll the time. it gets really annoying. its one thing if someone is just going to call me up and annoy me. i dont even mind that too much. but when i have to pay for it thats ridiculous.

i heart the DNC list.

Actually, I am pretty sure this is one of those urban myths....

My DH already started getting these calls on his cell. I have had my cell # for a few years & have always had it along with my home # on the Do Not Call list. Just put DH's there.
