Oral Revocation of TCPA Consent Ineffective Where Agreement Required Written Notice, Court Rules
A consumer's alleged oral revocation of consent to receive autodialed or prerecorded calls to his cell phone was ineffective under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) when his credit card agreement provided that written notice was required to revoke such consent, an Ohio federal district court has ruled. In Barton v. Credit One Financial, the plaintiff had obtained a credit card from Credit One and, by using the card, had agreed to the terms of the cardholder agreement, which stated that he was "providing express written permission authorizing Credit One Bank…to contact you at any phone number (including mobile cellular/wireless, or similar devices)…for any lawful purpose. The ways in which we may contact you include live operator, automatic telephone dialing systems (auto-dialer), prerecorded message, text message or email." The agreement contained another provision titled "Communication Revocation," which stated, "if you do not want to receive communication as described [herein], you must (i) provide us with written notice revoking your prior consent [and include certain specified information.]"
