Avoid TCPA Violations and Ensure Robust Data Integrity with RealAgentTM
Ensure your outbound calls & texts are only directed to your intended recipient!
These days, businesses looking to stay in touch with customers via call or text face a potentially serious dilemma… With approximately 1 in 10 consumers changing their phone number every MONTH, it can be difficult to maintain accurate data to ensure your contacts' info is up-to-date. Even if unintentional, contacting a consumer who did not consent to a call or text can expose enterprises to costly Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) violations. Even worse, assuming a call or text belongs to your customer without proper data validation could result in sharing personal and secure information with a fraudster.
RealAgent from Somos is a new solution that enables organizations to simply and easily query the Reassigned Numbers Database (RND) – a repository of over 400 million phone numbers that have been permanently disconnected and potentially reassigned to a new user – BEFORE a call or text reaches its recipient. Through this direct access to the RND, RealAgent helps empower enterprises with the crucial data they need to ensure that their calls and texts are reaching the intended source.
Now more than ever ensuring data integrity to maintain regulatory compliance are imperative. RealAgent can help organizations increase safe harbor, potentially avoid costly fines and be confident that every connection is the right connection.
The Stats Don’t Lie!
RealAgent can enhance your data integrity by querying the RND to:
- Extract data from the FCC’s Reassigned Numbers Database with ease.
- Process responses received, and deliver data in a simple, digestible format.
- Reduce the cost of querying the RND directly with our agent pricing.
