About The New Florida Telemarketing Legislation

This new bill updates the Florida Consumer Protection Law and the Florida Telemarketing Act and creates what is basically another version of the TCPA, including a private right of action. The proposed changes could have a significant impact on a company’s ability to call and text prospects and customers.

If the Bill is enacted, businesses will have to familiarize themselves with material changes to both the Florida Telemarketing Act and the Florida Do Not Call Act. Among the notable provisions:

• Businesses would be required to obtain prior express written consent from individuals before placing sales calls through use of automated systems.
• It is important to note that the Bill does not define “autodialer,” referring instead to “automated system[s] for the selection or dialing of telephone numbers or the playing of a recorded message,” which expands upon the definition contained in the Federal TCPA.
• As defined under the Bill, prior written consent requires a signed agreement that authorizes a business to place/send a call, text, or voicemail through use of an automated system or pre-recorded message.
