FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION
16 CFR Part 308
RIN 3084–AA78
Trade Regulation Rule Pursuant to the
Telephone Disclosure and Dispute
Resolution Act of 1992
Federal Trade Commission.
Proposed rule; withdrawal.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
On March 12, 1997, the
Federal Trade Commission initiated a
review of the effectiveness of its PayPer-Call Rule. The Commission sought
comment on whether to expand the
scope of this rule to cover audio
information and entertainment services
accessed by dialing telephone numbers
that begin with numbers other than
‘‘900.’’ After receiving a small number
of comments in favor of this approach,
the Commission published a notice of
proposed rulemaking to revise this rule
on October 30, 1998. While comments
received during this review were
supportive, technological changes have
muted the impact of the proposed
revisions and the Commission is
withdrawing this proposed rulemaking.
DATES: The proposed rule documents
published on March 12, 1997 (62 FR
11750), October 30, 1998 (63 FR 58523),
and January 4, 1999 (64 FR 61) are
withdrawn as of July 28, 2023.

of Consumer Protection, Federal Trade
Commission, 600 Pennsylvania Avenue
NW, Washington, DC 20580.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On March
12, 1997, the Federal Trade Commission
(‘‘Commission’’) published a document
in the Federal Register initiating a
review of the effectiveness of the PayPer-Call Rule. 62 FR 11750. Among
other things, the Pay-Per-Call Rule
requires disclosures about the cost of
telephone-based entertainment or
information services that consumers
access by dialing a 900 number and
mandates that consumers be given the
opportunity to hang up the phone before
being charged. See 16 CFR 308.1
through 308.8. The Commission also
sought comment on whether to expand
the scope of the rule to cover audio
information and entertainment services
SUMMARY:
PO 00000
Frm 00033
Fmt 4702
Sfmt 9990

accessed by dialing telephone numbers
that begin with numbers other than
‘‘900’’.
After receiving a small number of
comments in favor of this approach, the
Commission published a notice of
proposed rulemaking (‘‘NPRM’’) to
amend the rule on October 30, 1998. 63
FR 58523. Following two additional
rounds of public comment and a twoday public workshop on the proposed
changes, support to amend the Pay-PerCall Rule proved limited.1 Additionally,
technological changes have muted the
impact of the proposed amendments.
Not only did the use of 900 numbers
decline precipitously after issuance of
the NPRM,2 ultimately resulting in the
major U.S. telecommunications
providers of 900-number services
discontinuing those services,3 but such
reduction in use likewise diminished
the necessity of Commission
enforcement of the Rule. The
Commission last brought an action
under the rule in 2003.4 Accordingly,
the review of the Pay-Per-Call Rule
begun on March 12, 1997, is terminated,
and the Commission withdraws this
proposed rulemaking.
By direction of the Commission.
April J. Tabor,
Secretary.

1 On January 4, 1999, the Commission extended
the comment period and announced changes to the
dates of the public workshops held as a part of this

900 numbers for a fee often came to be found for
free on the internet. See Steven Melendez, How
