CUNA urged the FCC to retain purpose-built notification methods as it has ordered, or if it permits an alternative method, to sunset that permission in the future. The letter follows several meetings between CUNA and the FCC.

The FCC announced a beta test period for credit unions to access its Reassigned Numbers Database for free from July 1 through Sept. 30.  Participation will enable callers and caller agents to understand usage needs prior to signing up for a paid subscription.

CUNA continued its push for the Federal Communications Commission to issue an Erratum correcting its December 2020 Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) Report and Order in a joint comment filed Tuesday in response to two petitions filed with the FCC.

The U.S. Supreme Court ruled in favor of CUNA’s position in Facebook v. Duguid Thursday, supporting a narrow scope for the Telephone Consumer Protection Act’s definition of an automated telephone dialing system.

Credit unions  suffer unequal treatment for having made important and welcome calls to members under the TCPA, CUNA said in an amicus brief filed with the U.S. Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals. CUNA calls on the court to affirm a previous district court's dismissal of the TCPA lawsuit.

CUNA and other trade organizations followed up a meeting with the Federal Communications Commission last week with a letter sent Tuesday asking for error correction in the agency’s December 2020 Telephone Consumer Protection Act Report and Order.

The U.S. Supreme Court heard oral arguments Tuesday in Facebook v. Duguid, a case involving automated telephone dialing systems. CUNA filed an amicus brief in the lawsuit in September supporting a narrow scope for the TCPA definition of an ATDS.
