FYI, charities, political organizations, telephone surveyors, and bill collectors are all exempt from the National Do Not Call Registry restrictions. The following information is copied from the NDNCR's File A Complaint page:
1) You may file a complaint if you received an unwanted call after your number was on the National Registry for 31 days.
2) You may also file a complaint if you received a call that used a recorded message instead of a live person (whether or not your number was on the Registry).
*Reminder: Even if your number is registered, charities, political organizations, and telephone surveyors may continue to call you. Companies with which you do business may also continue to call, unless you have asked them to stop calling you. If you have asked them to stop calling, please keep a record of the date you made the request and include that information in the comment section of any complaint you submit against that company.

Debt collectors may also continue to call you whether your number is on the Registry or not.

Just received an automated call with a "Google Call" caller ID. Askd to place a small sign in our yard to cover the installation of a "free" whole home security system from an unmaned company. Pressed 9 to be taken off their list just for yucks. Know this never works but didn't want to yell at the person on the other end by pressing 1.
I pressed 2, but got no confirmation that we were removed. I thought the new rules on robo-calls were limited to places you've done business with. Thanks Google, keep it classy.
