Put Your Cell Phone on the Do Not Call List

A directory of cell phone numbers will soon be published for all consumers to have access to. This will open the doors for solicitors to call you on your cell phones, using up precious minutes that we pay lots of money for.

The Federal Trade Commission has set up a "do not call" list. It is called a cell phone registry. To be included on the "do not call" list, you must call from the number you wish to register. The number is 1-888-382-1222 OR you can go to their web site at _http://www.donotcall.gov_/ (http://www.donotcall.gov/) and add your number to the do not call list. please give this to friends who have cell phones.

[Thanks, Elizabeth!]

I did it myself, and it's very easy. One more note:

"Once you have registered, your phone number registration will be effective for 5 years. It will be illegal for most telemarketers to call you, and you will be able to file a complaint if a telemarketer does call you. The website www.donotcall.gov provides information about filing a complaint."
