What is the Telemarketing Sales Rule (TSR)?

The original TSR was the outgrowth of the Telemarketing and Consumer Fraud and Abuse Prevention Act of 1994 that went into effect on December 31, 1995. The law required the rule to be reviewed after 5 years. While that law was being reviewed, the USA Patriot Act of 2001 was passed. This has had a significant impact on the call center operations and regulations.

1. Dropped Calls - No more than 3% of the calls can be abandoned. (Measured per day and per campaign)

2. Ring Time - Calls must be allowed to ring four times (or 15 seconds) before they can be dropped as no answer.

3. Marketer Connect Time - If a call is answered, an agent must be available within two seconds after the receiver of the call finishes his greeting or a recorded message must be left giving the caller's name and phone number.
