National Do Not Call Registry

The federal government's National Do Not Call Registry is a free, easy way to reduce the telemarketing calls you get at home. The Do Not Call Registry stops sales calls from real companies. The Registry is a list that tells telemarketers what numbers not to call. The FTC does not and cannot block calls. The Registry can’t stop calls from scammers who ignore the Registry.

➔ Report unwanted calls
