Alerts from service providers related to National Do Not Call Registry

This classification is nothing new. It was defined a year back, but due to long pending NDNC new rule, it was not implemented by all operator. I had gt similar kind of massages some 7-8 months back.

----------

For Quick Reference :
 
this system was earlier supposed to be implemented in february this year from what i remember. there have been multiple delays. the entire process has been similar to implementation of mobile number portability and 3G. looks like tomorrow is going to be the day it would finally get implemented.
 
Basically, punish the good (order confirmation SMS) with the bad(spam)Guess I will have to do START 1 for getting ICICI transaction alerts and login passwordsAtleast they should have separated calls and SMS'es, so I could have blocked all calls, allowed SMS, and done whitelisting on my own phone

Both the links are dead!
 
So now, if I choose START 0, Google and my bank can't send me one-time-use codes? It takes an extremely concentrated variety of retard to come up with this bull.
 
i thought 1 was already allowed. :|

standard chartered sends me email updates on a daily basis (not individual transactions).

icici only has sms alerts. so that sucks for me.

would see how it works out before i subscribe for category number one.

well that is not how it is designed to be. from what i have read, banking alerts are not blocked at all. but if i am to believe twitter, even banks are not sure if their alerts would be treated as spam by the mobile service providers.

that is the reason why some banks are advising their customers to turn on the setting for banks.

from the image above, i see marketing alerts related to banking and financial sector. it does not talk about updates and alerts from your own bank. these updates are supposed to be excluded from the ban.
 
I think all transaction related messages would continue as it is. But all Promotional messages will be blocked and to unblock them one has to use that 1 code.
 
that is the plan. it would be interesting to see user experiences in the coming day. i would suggest everyone to have everything blocked :P or at least the banking segment blocked to see and confirm if they are still getting updates from their banks.
