Zorluk: ZorNational Do Not Call Registry and TCPA

An insurance producer located in the Eastern Time Zone is reviewing a call list of individuals who are all registered on the National Do Not Call Registry. None of the individuals have provided prior express written consent to be contacted. At exactly 9:30 AM Eastern Time, the producer decides to begin making calls. Under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) and federal Do Not Call regulations, which of the following immediate calls is legally permissible?

  1. Calling a prospect in the Central Time Zone who submitted an online request for a life insurance quote 2 months ago.Cevap
  2. B
    Calling a former client in the Pacific Time Zone whose auto insurance policy expired 10 months ago.
  3. C
    Calling a former client in the Eastern Time Zone whose homeowners insurance policy was canceled 20 months ago.
  4. D
    Calling a newly referred prospect in the Eastern Time Zone whose family member provided their contact information 2 weeks ago.

Cevap

Calling a prospect in the Central Time Zone who submitted an online request for a life insurance quote 2 months ago.
The correct answer identifies a situation that satisfies both the strict time-of-day restriction and the Established Business Relationship (EBR) exception. At 9:30 AM Eastern Time, it is 8:30 AM in the Central Time Zone, which falls safely within the permissible 8:00 AM to 9:00 PM calling window. Furthermore, a consumer's application or inquiry establishes an EBR that allows a producer to call them for up to 3 months, making the 2-month-old inquiry perfectly valid even though the prospect is registered on the National Do Not Call Registry.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Evaluate the permissible calling hours for each scenario based on the recipient's local time zone.
Federal law restricts calls to between 8:00 AM and 9:00 PM local time. At 9:30 AM ET, it is 9:30 AM in ET, 8:30 AM in CT, and 6:30 AM in PT. The call to the Pacific Time Zone is prohibited due to the time of day.
To eliminate options that violate TCPA time-of-day restrictions regardless of relationship status.
2
Analyze the Established Business Relationship (EBR) exception for former clients on the Do Not Call list.
The EBR for former clients lasts 18 months from the last transaction. The call to the client whose policy was canceled 20 months ago exceeds this limit and is prohibited.
To verify if an EBR exception remains valid for existing or past policyholders.
3
Analyze the EBR exception for inquiries and referrals.
Inquiries create a 3-month EBR, making the 2-month-old inquiry call legally permissible. Referrals do not create an EBR, meaning the referral call is prohibited.
To apply specific statutory definitions distinguishing between an actionable consumer inquiry and an unverified third-party referral.
