FCC Will Propose Rule to Block Robocalls
My phone lights up with robocalls all day long. Drives me crazy. I like to get to a land line and call them back. And there's never anyone there. You know what I'm talking about, don't you?
Recently, AT&T has sent me warnings--like the one above--about suspicious phone calls.
It also alerts me to telemarketers.
I'd love it if AT&T didn't have to alert me AT ALL.
Hopefully, I'll get my wish soon as the Federal Communications Commission plans to propose a ban on robocalls.
I don't know anyone who isn't plagued by this particular annoyance. Fingers crossed that this plague will vanish in the near future. And the nearer the better.
With the new legislation, AT&T wouldn't have to warn me or you anymore. The calls simply wouldn't get as far as our phones.
Bring it! I'm ready.
