| 2010-19412 | Telemarketing Sales Rule | Rule | In this document, the Commission adopts amendments to the Telemarketing Sales Rule ("TSR" or "Rule") that address the telemarketing of debt relief services. These amendments define debt relief services, prohibit debt relief providers from collecting fees until after services have been provided, require specific disclosures of material information about offered debt relief services, prohibit specific misrepresentations about material aspects of debt relief services, and extend the TSR's coverage to include inbound calls made to debt relief companies in response to general media advertisements. The amendments are necessary to protect consumers from deceptive or abusive practices in the telemarketing of debt relief services. | 2010-08-10 | 2010 | 8 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2010/08/10/2010-19412/telemarketing-sales-rule | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2010-08-10/pdf/2010-19412.pdf | Federal Trade Commission | 192 | In this document, the Commission adopts amendments to the Telemarketing Sales Rule ("TSR" or "Rule") that address the telemarketing of debt relief services.
