Comments:
Please, please do not allow telemarketers to create an additional call abandonment safe harbor to allow telemarketing calls that deliver a prerecorded message to consumers with whom the seller on whose behalf the calls are made has an established business relationship. This will erode the excellent Do Not Call List. Not a single person I know wants telemarketing automated calls. In order to get on the do not call list for these automated calls one must wait until the end of the call, and then the number they provide is bogus. Please BAN ALL OF THIS TYPE OF CALLS whether a business relationship has been established or not. We want NO telemarketing calls of any type. We want no opt in or opt out. We want no telemarketing calls of any kind. Thank you. Jim Travis
