What's the Problem?
Cell phones are inescapable in the modern world. Most of us have them with us at all times, always on.
As convenient as they are for us, they are just as convenient a tool for Telemarketers to reach you anywhere, anytime. And of course, even if the “robo-caller” is dialing the wrong number, that does not mean it will stop.
Automated Telephone Dialing Systems (a/k/a “robots”) are designed to place more calls than a human being can alone make. Sometimes these calls just keep coming, even though the callers are legally required to stop when asked.
Why do we keep getting these calls? Because cell phone communications are just too easy and effective not to abuse.
What's the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA)?
- The TCPA is a federal law meant to stop -- and punish -- illegal calls, texts, and pre-recorded telemarketing messages.
- The TCPA lets you to recover money damages -- as much as $1,500.00 per call -- in a successful case.
- Whether you're being harassed about your "extended warranty" or pressured into unnecessary services, the TCPA helps you reclaim your peace and sanity.
