Comments:
I am not in favor of the proposed amendment to the Telemarketing Sales Rule to create an additional call abandonment safe harbor. I do not wish to be contacted on the phone via a prerecorded message by a seller with whom I may or may not have an established business relationship or from whom I may or may not have purchased in the past. I also am not in favor of the petition submitted by the Direct Marketing Association to amend the TSR’s call abandonment safe harbor provision that currently requires use of "technology that ensures abandonment of no more than three (3) percent of all calls answered by a person, "measured per day per calling campaign" substituting the phrase "measured over a 30-day period.".
