Telemarketers volunteer to not call you

The nation's largest telemarketing association yesterday said its members would comply with the government's do-not-call list on Wednesday, even though a federal judge has ruled that the registry is unconstitutional.

Direct Marketing Association President H. Robert Wientzen said that after a conference call Saturday with more than 200 of the association's largest members, there was unanimous agreement to voluntarily stop calling the 50 million phone numbers on the national do-not-call list. The DMA, which has been fighting the planned restrictions, represents about 80 percent of the companies making sales calls, industry officials said.

"We will honor the list the best we can," Wientzen said in a telephone interview.

Thank you for not calling me.
