I am passing on some information that I have just got.



Important information regarding your cell phone


Starting Jan 1, 2005, all cell phone numbers will be made public to telemarketing firms. So this means as of Jan 1, your cell phone may start ringing off the hook with telemarketers, but unlike your home phone, most of you pay for your incoming calls. These telemarketers will eat up your free minutes and end up costing you money in the long run.

You should register them on the National Do Not Call List before December 15th, 2004. You can call 1-888-382-1222 or do it online at http://www.donotcall.gov – personal cell phones may also want to register on the Do Not Call List. It only takes a moment to register on the Do Not Call List and it could save you time and money [REAL POINTS]

Sometimes I think I might be the only person on this planet who has no cell phone and no intentions of buying one.

You should have labeled this as BAD news. That really rots. I am on the DO NOT CALL LIST and it doesn't work. I still get one call a night from telemarketers. It really rots for those of us that don't get free incoming mins.

Hehe not quite, I too dont like cell phones. Because...

1) I dont wanna have to worry about not loosing it.
2) I dont wanna be located by anyone all the time.
3) I dont want people mad at me when i dont answer. Obviously if I got a cellphone and i dont answer, i didnt feel like talking to you. Nothing like not answering ur home phone people assume ur not home.

Number 2 and 3 are my main reasons for not having a cell phone as well. Plus I'd be in some serious money trouble cause all my friends and my gf have a cell phone and I'd have to write tons of SMS.

Yeah...I finally got an answering machine, now any call I see what is out of the state, (because telemarketers usually call from far away places..) I just to pick it up.
