[quote][i]Q: If I register my number on the National Do Not Call Registry, will it stop all telemarketing calls?[/i]
A: No. Placing your number on the National Do Not Call Registry will stop most, but not all, telemarketing calls. Some businesses are exempt from the national registry and still can call you even if you place your number on it. Exempt businesses include:
long-distance phone companies
airlines
banks and credit unions; and
the business of insurance, to the extent that it is regulated by state law.
However, many telemarketing calls are placed by professional telemarketing companies, and even if the company whose goods or services are being sold is exempt, the telemarketing company may be covered.
You may still receive calls from political organizations, charities, telephone surveyors or companies with which you have an existing business relationship.
The FCC has initiated a rulemaking proceeding that would extend the National Do Not Call Registry to many of the businesses that are exempt from FTC coverage.

I knew the whole thing sounded too good to be true. I don't know about you guys, but those companies listed above are the only people I DO get telemarketing calls from. If those companies are exempt, it really defeats the purpose.
So what's going to happen is that any of the credit card companies, phone companies, etc are just going to stop using telemarketing companies (which are probably going to start going under in Oct) and hire their own people to do the same work.
You all are missing the point that something is better than nothing. :)
