Public Service Commission Fines 3 Telemarketers

Jackson, Mississippi (June 7, 2011) – Public Service Commissioner Brandon Presley (D-Nettleton) announced today that the Mississippi Public Service Commission has fined TV Travel, LLC of Phoenix, Arizona, Global Wealth Direct, LLC of Phoenix, Arizona, and EMC Packing and Shipping, Inc. of Kearny, New Jersey a total of $95,000 for violations of the Mississippi “No-Call” law and rules associated with enforcing the law.

Presley said the companies violated the “No-Call” law by failing to register and purchase the State’s “No-Call” list and for contacting consumers that had registered on the “No-Call” list.
Presley said the Commission is committed to stopping the solicitations which are a nuisance and an invasion of consumer’s privacy. Consumers can register to be on the Mississippi Do Not Call list at the Commission’s website (www.psc.state.ms.us) or by telephone at 800-356-6428
