Right now they are considering abandoning all of their auto/predictive dialer software and going to manual dial for everything, because the list-scrubbing services have been shown to be inaccurate.  There are extreme penalties for auto-dialing a cell phone, and "best effort" is NOT a defense to this, at all.  For example, Gallup just settle a claim for $12M.

One of their people talked to Neustar, but didn't get great answers because he doesn't really understand telephony.  Before I get in touch with Neustar, I thought I'd see if people here have some ideas.
