The Massachusetts Office of Consumer Affairs is promoting the Massachusetts Do Not Call Registry.

This registry allows Massachusetts residents to list their home or cell phone number as one that does not want to receive calls from telemarketers. Listing here will not eliminate all telemarketer calls, but should reduce them.

To add your number to the list, please visit http://www.mass.gov/donotcall.

In addition to the Massachusetts Do Not Call List, there is also a National Do Not Call Registry. Usually, adding your number to one list is good enough, but adding your number to both doesn’t hurt.

To add your phone number to the National Do Not Call Registry, visit http://www.donotcall.gov.

Also, more information is available on the MA Do Not Call List and the National Do Not Call Registry, including how to verify your number’s status and instructions on filing a complaint against a telemarketer.
