I've had 3 calls about it being reported that I was in an auto accident in the last 2 years and due to being innocent at time of claim I wasn't properly compensated. I'll get a couple more from them before the day is over.
I just got off the phone with someone giving away "free" benefits for Medicare. She wouldn't continue when she asked my age and I asked what difference does that make.
That was preceded by a call about the "state" Medicare benefits. He got all confused when I told him Medicare was federal and Medicaid was state. I think he went back for more training?
And I got a call from Emily Wilson with US Funeral Expenses. She was talking about all kinds of "discounts" on these "newly released plans in my state". But Emily got all frustrated when I asked about those discounts.
While typing this I got a call from Alison Smith about the "updated plans from Medicare that were just released". She asked 3 times if I had part A and B so she could check my eligibility. She also wanted to know my age. I asked her if it was a dating site. Alison didn't like that question.
And what do you know, all were local calls. I could go to their office and chat.
I record them all. I report them all. Nothing is ever done to them or about them.

I see it as telemarketed leads slowing down and becoming more expensive as a result since you can’t use an auto dialer to generate them, has to be a manual call. But then again that’s for people following the rules, I’m sure all the call centers overseas don’t give a **** so the onus is on you if you use those leads like I currently do. Social media generated leads won’t change, days of reselling leads will be gone hopefully so for us buying leads quality should get better in theory.

Yup that’s why everyone is saying telemarketer leads will be illegal. It’s a bit of a misnomer because if you read the language, manual calls are fine. But all the telemarketers are using auto dialers right now because it would take a long time to one get someone on the phone and two consent to a callback. Haven’t heard of a reputable inbound or tv lead vendor other than dbga or what sls has going on
