REBNY is pleased to announce a new service for its members. In partnership with PossibleNOW, an Atlanta-based technology firm, we offer you access to PossibleNOW’s DNCQuickcheck service to assist compliance with the federal Do Not Call laws.

As you may know, the FTC and the FCC passed Do Not Call regulations that prohibit unsolicited sales contacts to consumers. There are some exceptions to these rules including those where the caller has an established business relationship. Even then, certain restrictions still apply.

If you or your associates place calls to referrals, for sale by owners or expired listings, you put yourself as well as your agency at risk. Failure to comply with these Do Not Call laws can result in citations and fines up to $11,000 per call. You can read more about the Do Not Call regulatory information on the DNCQuickcheck web site at www.dncquickcheck.com.

PossibleNOW is a trusted leader in Do Not Call / Do Not Contact compliance solutions. Their client roster includes numerous Fortune 500 companies and tens of thousands of independent agents in the real estate, insurance and financial services markets.

REBNY negotiated with PossibleNOW to offer our members the DNCQuickcheck service for the low monthly rate of $10 per month per agent. To receive this special rate, you must use this “security code” of sc1593mb.

The DNCQuickcheck service is an Internet-based solution so there’s no software to buy or install. DNCQuickcheck lets you quickly verify phone numbers prior to placing calls. It’s fast and easy to use and requires no training. In addition to verifying Do Not Call phone numbers, DNCQuickcheck includes other tools to ensure compliance and to develop a safe harbor defense against unwarranted citations. These tools include online training to understand the correct compliance procedures, a “Policy Wizard” to quickly create and fulfill your company’s Do Not Call policy to consumers upon request, and detailed reporting on your compliance activities.

To sign up for the DNCQuickcheck service, go to www.dncquickcheck.com and click on the blue “Sign Up Today” button. Then, follow the on-screen instructions. Remember to enter the sc1593mb code to get your special savings.


If you would like more information on the DNCQuickcheck service, please contact PossibleNOW at (800) 585-4888 or (770) 255-1020 or e-mail sales@possiblenow.com.
