Frequent unwanted calls from telemarketers can be annoying and interrupt important moments in your life. In the US, both the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) take reports about unwanted telemarketing calls. While neither agency resolves individual complaints, your information will help them track down telemarketers who are violating the law. To prevent unwanted phone calls from telemarketers, you can also put your number on the National Do Not Call Registry. If you're still getting unwanted calls to your registered number, you can also report those to the Registry.
