Enforcement Bureau Removes Global UC From Robocall Mitigation Database

The FCC Enforcement Bureau removed Global UC from the robocall mitigation database after failing to meet robocall mitigation requirements. The provider failed to correct its certification or explain why it shouldn't be removed from the database, after receiving an October letter ordering it to do so, said an order Tuesday (see 2210030072). "We are cutting providers off and preventing them from accessing our networks when they fail to demonstrate they will protect consumers," said Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel: "This is a novel way to stop robocalls, and it’s one we are going to keep using until we get this junk off the line." The bureau also directed intermediate and terminating voice service providers in a public notice to "immediately cease accepting traffic" from Global UC within two business days.
