New system designed to block telemarketing calls to residences
A new service is available to
Oregon consumers who want
to limit the number of telem ar-
keting calls they receive at

The “black dot” law form erly
used has been replaced with
the Oregon “No Call” List pro-
gram. With some exceptions,
telephone solicitors are prohib-
ited from calling consum ers
who register with the program.
