Do Not Call protection in Michigan

Michigan formally adopted the FTC's National Do Not Call Registry as its own state list rather than running a separate one, so a single free registration at donotcall.gov covers you. State authorities can still enforce against telemarketers who ignore it, in addition to any federal penalty.

Whatever your state does, the federal National Do Not Call Registry applies, and the Telephone Consumer Protection Act gives you a private right of action against certain unlawful calls. Report unwanted calls at the FCC complaint centre and fraud at ReportFraud.ftc.gov.

Michigan robocall FAQs

Does Michigan have its own Do Not Call list?

Michigan formally adopted the FTC's National Do Not Call Registry as its own state list rather than running a separate one, so a single free registration at donotcall.gov covers you. State authorities can still enforce against telemarketers who ignore it, in addition to any federal penalty.

Where do the calls reported in Michigan come from?

The FCC records the state the person filing the complaint was in, not where the caller was. Because caller ID is easily spoofed, a call reported in Michigan may have been placed from anywhere in the world and may have displayed a Michigan number that belongs to an uninvolved person. Area code alone tells you nothing reliable about a caller's location.

What kind of calls are reported most in Michigan?

Prerecorded Voice is the most-reported category in Michigan, accounting for 11,599 of the 25,552 complaints (45%). Live Voice is second with 8,607.
