- How To Make A Telemarketing Complaint
Whether or not your home phone number or numbers are registered on the national Do-Not-Call list, the FCC requires a person or entity placing voice telephone solicitations to your home to maintain a record of your direct request to that caller not to receive future telephone solicitations from that person or entity. The calling company must honor your do-not-call request for five years.
The Virginia Telephone Privacy Protection Act (VTPPA), Virginia Code §§ 59.1-510 through 59.1-518, provides the following protections against unwanted telemarketing calls to Virginians:
• Prohibits telephone solicitation calls at any time other than between 8:00 a.m. and 9:00 p.m.;
• Requires telephone solicitors to identify themselves by first and last name and by the name of the company for which they are calling;
• Requires telephone solicitors to transmit for caller identification services the number, and when available by the telephone solicitor’s carrier, the name of the telephone solicitor;
• Prohibits telephone solicitors from intentionally blocking caller identification services;
• Requires telephone solicitors to play a prerecorded identification message whenever a live sales representative is not available to speak with the person answering the call within two seconds of that person’s completed greeting;
• Prohibits telephone solicitors from calling a telephone number when someone at that number has stated that he or she does not wish to receive solicitation calls by or on behalf of the company for which the call is being made;
• Prohibits telephone solicitors from calling a telephone number on the National Do Not Call Registry;
• Permits individuals to sue to enjoin violations, recover damages of $500 for each violation or up to $1,500 for willful violations, and recover their attorneys’ fees and court costs;
• Authorizes the Commissioner of the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services to inquire into possible violations and the Attorney General to issue civil investigative demands; and
• Authorizes the Attorney General, Commonwealth’s Attorneys, and attorneys for any county, city, or town to sue to enjoin violations, recover damages for affected citizens of $500 for each violation, recover a civil penalty of up to $1,000 for each willful violation, and recover attorneys’ fees and expenses.
