Keller Williams is REALLY getting roughed up under the TCPA right now. And the latest blow may be the worst of all.

Well now in a “you cant make this up” moment, the biggest shoe may have just dropped for KW.

On Friday a new TCPA class action against KW was filed in federal court in Miami and if the allegations are true Keller Williams is in a ton of trouble. Just a ton.

The case stems out of a claim that KW brokerages are not communicating DNC requests to one another. So one independent KW agent might be told to stop calling or texting but they aren’t letting the mothership know. So a different KW agent might turn around and call the same person.

This is the EXACT sort of conduct that cost Dish hundreds of millions of dollars a while back and I CANNOT BELEIVE Keller Williams would have such a massive blindspot.

Let us hope, therefore, that the allegations are not true.

The defined classes are as follows:

Do Not Call Registry Class: All persons in the United
States who from four years prior to the filing of this action
(1) were sent a text message by or on behalf of Defendant;
(2) more than one time within any 12-month period; (3)
where the person’s telephone number had been listed on
the National Do Not Call Registry for at least thirty days;
(4) for the purpose of selling Defendant’s products and
services; and (5) for whom Defendant claims (a) it did not
obtain prior express written consent, or (b) it obtained
prior express written consent in the same manner as
Defendant claims it supposedly obtained prior express
written consent to call the Plaintiff.

National Internal Do Not Call Class: All persons within the
United States who, within the four years prior to the filing
of this Complaint, were sent a text message from
Defendant or anyone on Defendant’s behalf, to said
person’s residential telephone number after making a
request to Defendant to not receive future text messages.

We’ll keep an eye on this.
