You need to go do some reading. The DNC is just a list of numbers maintained by the FTC. No Army of enforcers, no one monitoring anyone's calls, no mechanical call blocking devices and It doesn't enforce anything and wasn't created to. Just a list that you put your name on asking not to be called. Whether you are called or not depends upon the honesty of the callers. It is an impossible task both economically and physically to run down and try to prosecute each and every complaint filed with them.
Called my cell. I was on another call, so I didn't answer. They didn't leave a message. After reading this site, I've blocked the number. We don't have a mortgage, so we don't need our rates lowered. Guess I better update my number on the DNC list again.
Apparently it matters little, if at all, whether one has proactively taken the time and steps necessary to get on the Do Not Call list because these fly-by-night enterprises ignore the list and call anyway. We need tighter laws here because they are calling morning, noon and night with a recording (no less) offering to lower existing mortgage rates.
