How do I report a company that keeps calling after I told them to stop?

Question

Accepted Answer

Once you tell a company not to call, it must record your request and place you on its internal do-not-call list at the time you make it, and honor it within a reasonable time not to exceed 10 business days (47 CFR § 64.1200(d)(3), as amended by the FCC in 2024). The request lasts five years, and it applies even if you are a customer or never joined the National Do Not Call Registry. The FTC's Telemarketing Sales Rule (16 CFR § 310.4(b)(1)(iii)(A)) contains the same entity-specific rule. Note the date you asked, the number that called, and every later call. Report violations to the FTC at donotcall.gov/report.html or reportfraud.ftc.gov and to the FCC at consumercomplaints.fcc.gov; both agencies use complaints to bring enforcement actions, and repeated calls can also support a private claim. A written do-not-call demand creates a clear record. Generate one at https://takeitdown.agentexchange.work/request/optout.
