Frontier Wins Permanent Injunction Against Robocalling VoIP Provider

U.S. District Judge Michael Shea for Connecticut in New Haven granted Frontier Communications’ renewed request for injunctive relief to block VoIP service provider Mobi Telecom from engaging in unlawful robocalling conduct, said Shea’s signed order Tuesday (docket 3:22-cv-00218). The judge’s permanent injunction prohibits Mobi from routing phone calls to Frontier’s customers made using an automatic telephone dialing system, said the order. Mobi also is barred from using an artificial or prerecorded voice “to deliver a message without the prior express consent of the called party, unless the call is initiated for emergency purposes,” it said. The judge ordered the clerk to close the case.
