Answer & full 3-part explanation (select an option above, or peek)
Why D is correct
The federal Telemarketing Sales Rule (16 CFR 310) restricts telemarketing calls to the hours between 8 a.m. and 9 p.m. local time at the consumer's location. Calls outside that window violate the federal rule regardless of the caller's good faith or the recipient's status.
Why the other options are wrong
- A) Existing-client status does not lift the federal calling-hours window.
- B) The rule defines a daily time window, not a weekend-only calling privilege.
- C) The federal rule does contain a time-of-day restriction, which is the 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. window.
Memory hook
Dial between 8 and 9 — a.m. to p.m. — under 16 CFR 310.
