SOUTHFIELD, Mich., Aug. 22,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Lingo Telecom is pleased to
announce that it has fully resolved the Federal Communications
Commission's ("FCC") investigation pertaining to
certain robocalls during the New
Hampshire Democratic primary earlier this year.
The settlement announced on Wednesday contains no findings of
any rule violations, and Lingo Telecom continues to believe that it
complied with all FCC rules, including those pertaining to
STIR/SHAKEN call attestations.
The FCC has never before undertaken an enforcement action under
its STIR/SHAKEN attestation rules. In the interest of putting
this matter behind it, Lingo Telecom voluntarily agreed to
implement additional measures to further supplement its existing
robust robocall mitigation procedures.
The settlement also underscores Lingo Telecom's long-standing
dedication to both its robocall mitigation obligations, and its
strong commitment to ensuring election integrity. This
long-standing commitment to both issues was further demonstrated by
Lingo Telecom's complete cooperation with federal and state agency
efforts to identify the perpetrators responsible for initiating the
robocalls.
Indeed, we are pleased that the FCC saw it appropriate to reduce
by half the originally proposed settlement amount in light of our
collaborative approach. Now, both the agency and Lingo
Telecom can move forward and focus on the future.
