Members of the DMA (supposedly) abide by this list. Note that your local merchants don't necessarily belong and you may still get calls from people dialing on the basis of newspaper reports of your misfortune, or sequentially trying to get blanket coverage. Nevertheless, your vote with these guys may get a message across. To be removed,call 212-689-4977 Direct Marketing Assn. The office is in NYC. Hope this works !
