Friday is Deadline for Wisconsin's Do-Not-Call List

Today is the deadline for getting your land-line AND cell phone numbers on the state's Do Not Call list to keep away those pesky telemarketers.

Sick of getting phone calls in the middle of dinner from telemarketers asking you to buy a time-share in Arizona?Β 

Today is the deadline for the latest version of the list. Sign up on the state's No-Call website to be added to the list for two years. Β 

If you miss the deadline, no worries. You can sign up here 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Just remember that it may be another three months before the calls stop as the list is only distributed to telemarketers every quarter.Β
