Statement:
I answered the telephone and
received a telephonic sales call (unsolicited or prerecorded). I want the
Department to take appropriate action. I acknowledge that all information I
provide with my complaint is a matter of public record and is not considered
confidential. Moreover, I understand that not all sales calls are a violation,
for instance, when: 1. a prior or existing business relationship exists;
2. in response to an express request of the person called; 3. from a newspaper
publisher; 4. in connection with an existing debt or contract; 5. a real estate
agent responds to my advertisement. Further, I understand that calls from
political parties, research/survey companies, collection agencies and
organizations requesting a donation generally do not sell products or services
and therefore are not making a sales call in violation. I understand that the
ability of the Department to successfully pursue action depends, in part, on
the accuracy and timeliness of the information that is provided.
