a) The "previously established business relationship" exemption expires 6
months after the 'business relationship' ends. (This is in the 'fine
print' of the actual rules0 As the relationship in question ended
several years ago, according to the prior poster, this exemption would
not apply.
b) Nothing in the Do-not-call rules applies to calls to business numbers.
Callers to business numbers are not even required to respect a 'put me
on your "do-not-call" list', or 'do not call me again' request under
the DNC rules.
