Posted on November 11, 2009Sprint Cell Phones No Contract were one of the first No Contract Cell Phones in the market, however a small disadvantage involving telemarketers disturbed its users. The FTC has made a decision to ban robocalls also known as pre-recorded commercial calls. Perpetrators of this new law and ban could have to deal with fines as high as $16,000.

As an example, a robocall from the bank saying that an overdraft charge has happened will be excused from this ban.
