Irritating calls from telemarketers will be a thing of past from tomorrow as telecom operators are going to block pesky calls and messages as per regulator Trai’s recommendations.
“All our operators are ready to implement the recommendations of the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (Trai) to curb the menace of unsolicited calls and SMSes.
However, we are concerned about the 100 SMSes per SIM a day and we will be in discussion with the regulator to sort this out,” telecom lobby COAI’s Director General Rajan S Mathews said.
On September 5, after much delay, Trai came out with recommendations to stop pesky calls and text messages from September 27. The regulator has ordered that no access provider (operator) shall permit transmission of more than 100 SMSes per day per SIM.
