Bored From Telemarketing Calls!!Here is a Guide to Stop Unwanted Calls

 

Hope You Doing Well:)

Telecom Regulatory Authority Of India (TRAI)’s issuance of “The Telecom Commercial Communications Customer Preference Regulations, 2010” can be regarded as a more convenient approach towards providing mobile subscribers the choice to selectively choose telemarketing services.

The National Customer Preference Register (NCPR) of TRAI which will become effective from 1 January, 2011 allows customers to either completely block or choose telemarketing calls from pefedeined seven categories.

You can set your preferences  via Voice call, via IVRS and also through SMS. Here we look at how to register, deregister and change your preferences for telemarketing calls, through SMS.

Registration Your Tele Marketing Preference through SMS

You can set your preferences via SMS by sending an SMS to 1909. Follow the instructions given below carefully to completely block or partially allow tele marketing calls.

To avail the fully blocked option which blocks all seven categories, you have to send SMS START 0 to 1909.

For registering to partially blocked option, you have to send an SMS in the format  given below:

1. Send START 1 for receiving SMS relating to Banking/Insurance/Financial products/credit cards


2. Send START 2 for receiving SMS relating to Real Estate


3. Send START 3 for receiving SMS relating to Education


4. Send START 4 for receiving SMS relating to Health


5. Send START 5 for receiving SMS relating to Consumer goods and automobiles


6. Send START 6 for receiving SMS relating toCommunication/Broadcasting/Entertainment/IT


7. Send START 7 for receiving SMS relating to Tourism and Leisure

You can also register to get telemarketing calls from more than one category by sending a single SMS. You need to include your preferred category numbers coma separated.

For example, if you want calls from Education and Health, you have to send an SMS in the format START 3, 4

When your options are received at the other end, the Access Provider will send you an SMS, asking for your confirmation.

When you reply, the Access Provider will register your preference and will  send a final SMS notifying the success of registration along with your unique registration number.

Done.

If you are sending an SMS like “START 0,2,3” with 0 (zero) included, the SMS will be treated as fully blocked.

Changing preference through SMS

Here we will show you how to change your already registered preferences with your new preference options.

1. You can stop existing options by sending an SMS STOP, followed by the preference number. For eg, if you want to stop the education related telemarketing calls, send STOP 3 to 1909.


2. If you want a new option to your existing options, you can send an SMS START, followed by your preference number. Eg, You can send an SMS “START 3” to start receiving calls from Education telemarketing agents.


3. After you send SMS to your Access Provider, you will get an SMS asking for your confirmation. When you reply, your preferences will get registered.


4. You also get an SMS indicating that your preferences are registered. This SMS will also have your unique registration number

Done.

De-Registration of preference through SMS

To deregister from the National Customer Preference Register, send “STOP” to 1909. You will then get a deregistration confirmation request via SMS. Once you confirm, the Access Provider will activate your option and inform you through SMS.

Entrepreneurship--Go and Chase ur Dreams:)

As you approach the final year of the college life, the career part of the mind will be busy exploring all options. A good CAT percentile leading towards an IIM-MBA loaded with moolah, or a Master’s in the US ? Or just a good campus job. And for some, just some, chasing their dreams of may be a PhD or teaching or higher education, purely as an intellectual pursuit in a chosen field of interest. In the much-pursued search how often do people actually “choose” what they want? How often do they “seek” what they want, in an area they want?

Granted, there is social respect that comes with a good job (read- good pay) in a good (read, well known and recognised) company. But still, aren’t there other options? If you can’t find a job or company that is in line with personal interests and likes, can you “make” a job yourself? Maybe you are your best Manager! This is what start-ups are all about - Chasing a dream. And not depending on anyone else or any company to realise your dreams. Create a product or a business instead of just helping build one.

Creating jobs for instead of just filling one job in a company. Creating one’s own IP (intellectual property) as opposed to just working for a larger company helping them build their IP or products. Or worse, engaged in just services for global clients, with no IP created nor retained.

For engineering and business students, the options are even better. If in the pre-final year you can think of some interesting ideas and get a basic validation, you can start working on the initial prototypes in the summer vacation. And with this experience and insight, you can tweak the plans and work on it as a final year project. Put in that extra effort, more than what may normally be needed just to fulfill academic obligations.

Basically concurrent to the final year in college, at no additional financial cost, and maybe just additional time investment one can get the first serious version of the idea or product built. And use this to get some validation from VCs, entrepreneurs and others in that domain.

Much easier to get the attention of these experts if one has a prototype to show, rather than just discuss an idea on paper or using slides. The advantage of doing this is that the decision to embark on own venture or start-up as opposed to taking up a campus job is now much more informed and with some much usable validation. Validation of the idea. Validation of the feasibility. Validation of business possibilities. And most importantly, the Validation of the team’s interest and if it stands the test of time without fading away.

At this point or closer to this point, just before graduation you can approach either the incubation centre in your college, look for e-cells in the city or even programmes like HydCubator (IIIT-H) or iAccelerator (IIM-A). All of these can help with the process to validate the idea and the prototype and help make the decision to go forward to make it a full-fledged start-up. If the prototype is good (which it will be if serious effort went into it), you can even get some initial angel funding that will help seed the effort. Maybe get a few more engineers to join the founding team. And accelerate the process to the first serious version of the idea/product and get some customer validation, which will be key to raise more angel money and eventually onto VC money.

The ecosystem is also rapidly getting in place. From start-up events to academic incubation cells to e-cells driven by organisations like NEN (National Entrepreneurship Network) to angel networks and lot of willing entrepreneurs available to mentor. It’s a great time to think about it. Go. Chase your dreams. Create something!
