Telemarketing for Connecticut Consumers
In Connecticut, telemarketing is subject to strict consumer protection laws. A telemarketer cannot bind a consumer to purchase, lease, or rent goods from an agreement over-the-phone. They must have a written and signed contract that clearly states the full terms of the sale, lease, or rental.
Without such contract, the consumer is not required to pay for any goods or services, as it is considered an unconditional gift.
