Federal Trade Commission.
Notice and request for comment.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
The Federal Trade
Commission (FTC) requests that the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) extend for three years the current
Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA)
clearance for information collection
requirements contained in the rules and
regulations under the Pay-Per-Call Rule
(Rule). That clearance expires on
January 31, 2025.
DATES: Comments must be received by
February 20, 2025.
ADDRESSES: Written comments and
recommendations for the proposed
information collection should be sent
within 30 days of publication of this
notice to www.reginfo.gov/public/do/
PRAMain. Find this particular
information collection by selecting
‘‘Currently under 30-day Review—Open
for Public Comments’’ or by using the
search function. The reginfo.gov web

collections.
SUMMARY:
P.
Connell McNulty, Attorney, Division of
Marketing Practices, Bureau of
Consumer Protection, Federal Trade
Commission, Mail Code CC–6316, 600
Pennsylvania Ave. NW, Washington, DC
20580, (202) 326–2061.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title:
Trade Regulation Rule Pursuant to the
Telephone Disclosure and Dispute
Resolution Act of 1992 (Pay-Per-Call
Rule), 16 CFR part 308.
OMB Control Number: 3084–0102.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Abstract: The existing reporting and
disclosure requirements of the Pay-PerCall Rule are mandated by the
Telephone Disclosure and Dispute
Resolution Act of 1992 (TDDRA) to help
prevent unfair and deceptive acts and
practices in the advertising and
operation of pay-per-call services and in
the collection of charges for telephonebilled purchases. The information
obtained by the Commission pursuant to
the reporting requirement is used for
law enforcement purposes. The
disclosure requirements ensure that
consumers are told about the costs of

using a pay-per-call service, that they
will not be liable for unauthorized nontoll charges on their telephone bills, and
how to deal with disputes about
telephone-billed purchases.
Likely Respondents:
telecommunications common carriers
(subject to the reporting requirement
only, unless acting as a billing entity),
information providers (vendors) offering
one or more pay-per-call services or
programs, and billing entities.
Estimated Annual Hours Burden:
949,536 hours (24 + 949,512).
Reporting: 24 hours for reporting by
common carriers.
Disclosure: 949,512 [(19,440 hours for
advertising by vendors + 19,992 hours
for preamble disclosure which applies
to every pay-per-call service + 6,480
burden hours for telephone-billed
charges in billing statements (applies to
vendors; applies to common carriers if
acting as billing entity) + 13,000 burden
hours for dispute resolution procedures
in billing statements (applies to billing
entities) + 890,600 hours for disclosures
related to consumers reporting a billing
error (applies to billing entities)].
Estimated annual cost burden:
$49,402,048 (solely relating to labor
costs).1
Request for Comment
On November 4, 2024, the FTC sought
public comment on the information
collection requirements associated with
the Rule. 89 FR 87575.2 The
Commission received one germane
comment, which supported the
continued collection of information
under the Rule. The Commission
received a second comment that
mischaracterized the Commission’s
November 4, 2024 Notice and request
for comment as a notice of proposed
rulemaking. The commenter asserted
that the Commission’s Notice raised
constitutional and ‘‘statutory overreach’’
concerns. The Commission’s Notice, as
discussed, sought public comment on
1 Non-labor (e.g., capital/other start-up) costs are
generally subsumed in activities otherwise
undertaken in the ordinary course of business (e.g.,
business records from which only existing
information must be reported to the Commission,
pay-per-call advertisements or audiotext to which
cost or other disclosures are added, etc.). To the
extent that entities incur operating or maintenance
expenses, or purchase outside services to satisfy the
Rule’s requirements, staff believe those expenses
are also included in (or, if contracted out, would be
comparable to) the annual burden hour and cost
estimates provided below (where such costs are
labor-related), or are otherwise included in the
ordinary cost of doing business (regarding non-labor
costs).
2 On November 27, 2024, the FTC filed a Notice
to correct an incorrect date in its Notice of
November 4, 2024; namely that the current PRA
clearance expires on January 31, 2025, and not
January 30, 2024. See 89 FR 93602.
