I didn't personally answer but a family member did, and it was a automated-telemarketer selling alarm systems- we are on national do not call registry, filing a a complaint now

alarm system sales...on DNC list...why?  Doesn't seem to work at all, does it?

Nothing but beeping when we answered this call.  Hung up. Reporting it.

Did not answer the call.

I received a missed call. Blocked my # and called them. Automated message states if you want to be on Do Not call list press #1.  i pressed 1 but wonder if it works when I had my # blocked. Oh well, we will see

Many comments here say the DNC list does not work. That is not true. No legitimate company cold calls anymore and has not for many years. Every single one of these robocalls, be it a telemarketer or a charity, is a scam. They are essentially criminals and criminals do not care about the DNC list.

Furthermore, many of these numbers are now spoofed so it is impossible for the government to track them down. The telcos could help but so far have refused to do so.

$500K is not exactly a big budget. If you want the DNC list to have more clout, vote for someone who is interested in allotting it more than chicken feed.

3. Public Safety Answering Points (PSAP) Do Not Call Registry: $500,000

Section 6507 of the Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2012 requires the FCC to
create a Do-Not-Call registry for telephone numbers used by Public Safety Answering Points
(PSAPs), and to prohibit the use of automatic dialing equipment to contact those numbers. PSAPs
are facilities that have been designated to receive emergency calls and route them to emergency
service personnel. On May 22, 2012, the FCC released a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking initiating
a proceeding to create such a registry. Under the statute, verified PSAP administrators or managers
must be able to place onto the PSAP registry telephone numbers that are used for the provision of
emergency services or for communications between public safety agencies. The FCC requests
$500,000 for FY 2014 in order to provide operation and maintenance on an annual basis. The FCC
has also requested $1,000,000 as a one-time initiative for PSAP in FY 2014.
