You guys aren't talking about this?

It's been in the news for the last few days.

From what I have heard only Verizon, AT&T and T-Mobile will withhold customer cell phone numbers from the listing.

The rest of you are FUCKED

 

i disagree with publishing #'s

you are in a contract and shouldnt have to protect yer # from being published

 

 

Any links on this?

 

There's still a law on the book about telemarketing calls to a cellphone.

And your name does or will show up on caller ID.

What's the big deal?

 

My home phone is VoIP and does now show name

 

mine shows as wireless caller- NJ and the number....

i heard you get to say if you want your number published or not....

 

they'll prob charge you like the landline co's

 

Here's what I heard:

You MIGHT have a choice whether or not to have your number listed, but if you choose not to list, then you'll have to pay. Sorta like having an unpublished number for a regular landline number.

Ken,

It is a big deal. Not only telemarketers would be looking up your cell number to call.... the directory would be available to anyone.

And besides, we all know that telemarkets call anyway... I've been on that list and I still get calls sometimes.

 

not only what tom2 said, but having random TXT message spam isn't cool either
