How to Manage Your Do Not Call List

Managing your Do Not Call list ensures your team avoids calling people who have requested not to be contacted. In ThruTalk, this helps your campaigns stay compliant and respectful of contact preferences. This guide walks you through uploading phone numbers in bulk, adding them during a call, and reviewing them later.


TABLE OF CONTENTS


Do Not Call Overview

You can manage your Do Not Call list on the Do Not Call page, located in the ThruTalk Tools left sidebar.

Adding to Your Do Not Call List

  • Enter the phone number(s) into the Input Phone Numbers field. (If adding more than one number at a time, you must separate the entries by comma or line break.)
  • Click Add to Do Not Call List
  • See a confirmation message. 


The Phone Number Lookup tool under Account Tools allows you to add an existing contact to the Do Not Call list or remove a phone number from it. For a full walkthrough, open Contact Phone Number Lookup.
