I've complained and was appalled at how obtuse the process is. (E.g. the FCC requires that you include hyphens in phone numbers, the Do-not-call list won't allow numbers with hyphens.)
I've thought of making an app to automate the process. It would remember all form's entries for you (name, address, etc) and fill in the current time and date. You'd just have to copy the phone number.
Think there's any demand for this?
