Starting Jan 1, 2005, all cell phone numbers will be
made public to telemarketing firms. So this means as of
Jan 1, your cell phone may start ringing off the hook
with telemarketers, but unlike your home phone, most
of you pay for your incoming calls. These telemarketes
will eat up your free minutes and end up costing you
money in the long run. According to the National Do Not
Call List, you have until Dec. 15, 2004 to get on the
national "Do not call list" for cell phones. They
said that you need to call 1-888-382-1222 from the cell
phone that you wish to have put on the "do not call
list" to be put on the list. They also said you can do
it online at www.donotcall.gov Registering only takes a
few minutes, is in effect for 5 years, and will possibly
save you money (and definitely frustration).
