Residential customers may add their name, address, and non-business telephone number to a state sponsored no-call list that is intended to limit the number of telemarketing calls received. The "No-Call Lists" will be published quarterly and telemarketers must update their "Do Not Call" lists from the published list each quarter (January 1, April 1, July 1, and October 1). Telemarketers will have 60 days from the date a number appears on a published list to update their internal databases and remove numbers. The first published list became available to telemarketers on April 1,2002. You will be advised when you register on which quarterly list your telephone number will appear.
The cost for registering on the "Do Not Call List(s)" are as follows:

A customer that registers for inclusion on the no-call list may continue to receive calls from groups, organizations, and persons who are exempt from compliance with this section, including a listing of the entities exempted.
