Comments:
To whom it may concern, I signed up for the do not call list to prevent unwanted phone calls, regardless of the delivery method. It states that there will be an opt out option if you want to but how are you going to tell a recorded message that you do not want it to call back? I do not want to spend 5 minutes hitting numbers on the phone just to opt out of something I did not want in the first place; this all while my dinner is getting cold. If I want to purchase something I will go out do the research and then get it when I am ready and not because some machine or person, for that matter, calls me on the phone and tries to hound me. When you first introduced the do not call list I began to feel that the FTC was putting my tax money to good use and looking out for us. If you pass this loophole it would seem that I was wrong in the first place and that you can be bought, bribed or what ever other adjective you find comforting. Sincerely E. Ian H. Monsma
