The "Do Not Call" list doesn't block telemarketers from calling; it does provide a list which telemarketers should comply with, and it gives you the option of reporting anybody who does call in spite of you being on the list. The list doesn't apply to certain types of calls like calls from nonprofit organizations and political campaigns.
We've been on the list since it began. We still get telemarketing calls - most often, from local services like remodeling and carpet cleaning, who say they're going to be in our area and would like to offer us a special deal. My first step is to ask them: What is your name? What is the name of your company? What is your phone number? and I write it all down.
Then I tell them that we've been on the DoNotCall list since the beginning, and that their company should not be calling us. I am courteous as I say this - probably the caller is a low-paid employee doing what they've been told to do. So I say, this is nothing personal against you, but please let your employer know that I'm going to file a complaint against the company on the DoNotCall.gov site.
Frequently I'm told that they use the DoNotCall list, and that our number is not on it. I know that isn't true, because it's easy for me to verify that our number is on the list.
So... bottom line, it has greatly reduced the number of calls we receive, and it gives us recourse when a company ignores the list.
