Calls from political organizations, charities, and telephone surveyors do not fall under the jurisdiction of the FTC or FCC so they are still allowed. That means you may still receive calls requesting donations mobile database to the PBA or asking you to vote for a certain candidate near election time. But the random telemarketer calls offering to sell you something should come to an end.
We all have cell phone numbers with no name attached. Prank calls, questionable numbers in the contact list of your partner, digits written on a piece of paper and stuffed in a drawer. No matter where the number came from or why you want to know the name of the contact, searching for information on cell phone numbers can be difficult. The reason is because cell phone numbers are not listed with land line numbers. Public phone directories are reserved for numbers printed in the phone book and published as part of public record. This does not include mobile numbers.
