One is maintained by the Direct Marketing Association (DMA), and the other is maintained by the United States Government's Federal Trade Commission (FTC). We suggest you enter your name on both Do Not Call Lists. Use this secure, confidential form to get your name and number on the 'Do Not Call' list for consumer merchandise telemarketers. It can take up to six months to stop all the calls. Simply complete the online form and click "Send" to transmit it to the Attorney General's Office electronically. Confidential Form.

Here is how you enter your name on the Direct Marketing Association Do Not Call List. The Office of the Attorney General will only use information provided here to update the Direct Marketing Association Do Not Call list. If you prefer, you may place your name and number on that list directly by regular mail by writing to:

Direct Marketing Association
Telephone Preference Center
P.O. Box 1559, Carmel, NY 10512

The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has also created a Do Not Call List, which makes it easier for you to stop getting telemarketing calls you do not want. You can register online at National Do Not Call Registry or by calling toll free at 1-888-382-1222, TTY 1-866-290-4236 from the telephone number you wish to register. Registration is FREE.

You can also remove yourself from mailing lists by sending your name, address, telephone number, and your signature to:

Mail Preference Service
Direct Marketing Association (DMA)
Box 0914
Farmingdale, NY 11735-9014

By placing your name in the DMA Do Not Mail List, you can expect within a few months to receive considerably fewer unwanted mailings. Your name remains on the list for five years. After that, you must repeat the process if you want to continue to be listed. For more information, see Direct Marketing Association
