Prerecorded identifications and opt-out messages.
S.C. Code Ann. § 37-21-60
in effectWhen a live telephone solicitor is not available to speak with the consumer answering a telephone solicitation call within two seconds of the completed greeting, the telephone solicitor shall: (1) play a prerecorded identification and opt-out message that is limited to disclosing that the call was for telephone solicitation purposes and states the name and telephone number of the person on whose behalf the telephone solicitation call is being made, and a telephone number for such person that permits the consumer to make a do-not-call request during regular business hours; provided that, such telephone number may not be a 900 number or any other number for which charges exceed local or long distance transmission charges; and (2) an automated, interactive voice- and/or key press-activated opt-out mechanism that enables the consumer to make a do-not-call request prior to terminating the call, including brief explanatory instructions on how to use such mechanism. When the consumer elects to opt-out using such mechanism, the mechanism must automatically record the consumer's number to the telephone solicitor's in-house do-not-call list and immediately terminate the call.
