[edit]Telecalling
ICICI Lombard was the first general insurance company in India to start telesales operations due to its inherent profitability. However in recent times, public outburst against pushy and intrusive telecalling in general has led to a reduction in cold calling and the introduction of 'do-not-call' (opt-out) lists similar to the US 'Do Not Call Registry'. ICICI Lombard too has the Do Not Call option and respects the privacy of their customers.[citation needed]
