\"DNCL\"<\/a>I found out about the latest way telemarketers get around the Do Not Call List.<\/p>\n

Like other people, some of my mobile phone numbers are now getting calls from shady Florida timeshares and cruise lines, quite possibly as a result of appearing on the DNCL<\/a>. Annoying calls haven’t slowed down; they just start with a survey.<\/p>\n

Last night, there was a new twist.<\/p>\n

I received a call with Private Name and Number in the display. That wasn’t too unusual. I have a number of colleagues who call that way, not just sleazy call centres. It was from a company that has duct cleaning equipment ‘in my neighbourhood’.<\/p>\n

When I asked them for their name and number, they gave me a phone number for a small independent contractor who has nothing to do with the call centre. How could we prove otherwise?<\/p>\n

The only way to truly find out who is violating the telemarketing rules will be to book an appointment with these guys.<\/p>\n

Has anyone seen any real benefits from the DNCL? It seems to me that we have legislation that adds costs to the good guys while doing close to nothing to stop the bad guys. In this economy, did we really need to add another cost of doing business?<\/p>\n

I would prefer to chop yet another government database and just teach Canadians that modern etiquette permits slamming the phone down on unwanted calls. It’s cheaper, and let’s face it, it feels so good.<\/p>\n

Will the government repeal the DNCL?<\/p>\n
