Compliance

The telemarketing flag and why it blocks billing

If a client was signed up through outbound telemarketing, you cannot collect from them here. There is no override.

What the flag means

At intake there is a checkbox recording whether the client relationship originated from outbound telemarketing. If it is checked, every attempt to charge that client is refused with a message citing the Telemarketing Sales Rule, 16 C.F.R. §310.4(a)(2).

Under that rule, a credit repair service sold via telemarketing cannot collect payment until six months after the promised results are demonstrated by a report issued after those results were achieved. The platform does not attempt to model that window — it blocks collection entirely.

There is no override

No setting, role, or support request will unblock billing on a flagged client. This is deliberate and permanent. You can still perform the dispute work; you cannot collect for it through this platform.

If the flag was set in error at intake, that is a data-correction question — contact support with the client id.
