BREAKTHROUGH PRODUCTS FROM CALL COMPLIANCE.COM, INC.;
PROVIDE "DO NOT CALL" COMPLIANCE FOR TELEMARKETERS;
PROTECT CONSUMERS FROM UNWANTED SALES CALLS

CCI Announces New Proprietary Products, Connection Agreement with Telco Communications and Easy Web Access to Ensure Compliance Glen Cove, New York - March 30, 1999 - Call Compliance.com, Inc. (CCI), announced the first suite of software solutions that allow telemarketers to automatically block phone and fax numbers of individuals and businesses on "do-not-call" lists. The new technologies provide relief for consumers from unwanted sales calls, while helping ensure regulatory and statutory compliance for telemarketing companies. "Now, for the first time, telemarketing operations have the means to comply with stiffening government regulations. Firms will not only save on legal and regulatory costs, but gain a significantly greater return on their telemarketing investment," says Alison Garfinkel, president of CCI. The service will block unwanted calls and faxes made by telemarketers who subscribe to CCI. "Consumers demand and deserve a right to their privacy. At the same time, telemarketers don't want to waste money or time calling customers who will be unresponsive. We've answered both challenges with products that are available at virtually no cost to the telemarketing firm." Further, CCI's products are the first on the market that enable telemarketers to comply with SEC, NASD, Federal and State regulations, thereby avoiding potentially damaging fines, closures and compliance costs.

Teleblock, the first product to be developed and marketed by CCI, is an automated blocking service that enables telemarketing companies to have phone calls blocked to all individuals and businesses listed on a telemarketer's proprietary "do-not-call" list, CCI's in-house list and third-party lists provided by states and other sources. The new technology is first available to businesses through an agreement between CCI and Telco Communications, Inc. Group, which is a subsidiary of Teleglobe, Inc., one of the largest providers of telecommunications services in the United States. To get the Teleblock service, all companies have to do is sign-up with a long distance carrier who has a connection agreement with CCI. Teleblock is then provided at virtually no additional cost. There is no hardware or software required, just Internet access for selecting the database of lists. An important feature of CCI's software application is its ability to enable geographically dispersed offices and locations of a company to block "do-not-call" numbers. Notes Garfinkel, "Now national operations with many offices can keep in total compliance through the parent company's use of Teleblock, all managed through one Internet-based entry screen."

Telestop^TM New Service Provides Direct Consumer Sign-Up To "Do Not Call" Lists

For consumers and other end-users, CCI has introduced Telestop, a subscription service that allows individuals and businesses to add their telephone numbers to CCI's "do-not-call" database of telephone, modem and fax numbers at a nominal cost. Individuals simply sign up at the CallCompliance.com Web site (or by calling the CCI Hotline at 1-888-674-6774), and are automatically included in CCI's "do not call" list provided to all telemarketers and other telephone/fax solicitors who use CCI's Teleblock service. "At last, consumers and businesses have the means to protect themselves from the kinds of calls or faxes they do not want to receive. Consumer advocates have been calling for greater protection and privacy. Garfinkel continues, "There also are a variety of federal, state and industry-specific rules and regulations being enforced, but until now there has been no effective way for telemarketers to access and automatically block "do-not-call" lists to comply with the laws." These laws include SEC and NASD regulations for financial services firms and FCC enforcement of such laws as the Telemarketing and Consumer Protection Act of 1991. Concludes Garfinkel, "CCI's new software solutions will provide an unrivaled benefit to consumers and telemarketers who utilize these products, and a positive step in addressing consumer concerns with telemarketing practices."
