A Florida woman was charged after police said she threatened an insurance company with the phrase "delay, deny, depose."An arrest affidavit obtained by WFLA said the FBI contacted the Lakeland Police Department on Tuesday with information about an alleged threat.According to the affidavit, 42-year-o...
that makes anything you say after implied to have given consent for the recording, bypassing any two-party comsent laws.
That… doesn’t sound like two party consent to me. Are you saying that I can tell someone “I’m recording this call” and they don’t have to actually consent, they just have to not mention it?
But you can say “Just so you know, this phone call is being recorded” and if they continue to talk, they are implicitly giving consent
Which makes it kind of bullshit and not two-party, since in many cases this is effectively the only means of communicating with these companies. There is no real option to not consent, especially in the case of healthcare companies, since it’s not like a person can just choose to not have a body with real medical concerns (and in the US you legally can’t even go uninsured without penalty). Calling this “two party” at this point is a fucking joke.
Makes sense. I don’t usually call customer service - I tend to use email or social media where possible, so that I have everything in writing with timestamps, just in case I need to refer back to it or use it as evidence.
First off, you don’t have to tell them you’re recording if they’ve already informed you they’re recording. They’ve already consented to being recorded.
And when recording a conversation across state lines from a single-party consent state to a 2-party consent state, the 2-party rules are in effect.
Otherwise they could just route all call centers through single-party states and skip the recording.
And if you hang up you can’t deal with the claim denial. So really, wouldn’t that start to tread the line of coercion? If you don’t consent to being recorded we’ll continue to deny healthcare.
It’s just down right petty how they go out of their way to be evil. Piss people off until they lose control of their emotions and say bunch of shit and record it.
Some states you don’t even need that. I live in a one-party state, so I wouldn’t need to tell someone they’re being recorded, as long as I knew they were.

You can literally choose to not say anything about threatening or murdering someone over a recorded call.
Yes of course. But maybe we don’t have to stick only to specific bad example and can speak to the practice in general, perhaps?
I mean it’s literal common sense but sure

Does that mean I can also record them?

That’s incorrect twice.

They consent by continuing the call. They can otherwise hang up
And if you hang up you can’t deal with the claim denial. So really, wouldn’t that start to tread the line of coercion? If you don’t consent to being recorded we’ll continue to deny healthcare.
Oh honey… they were going continue denying the claim either way.
Oh absolutely.
It’s just down right petty how they go out of their way to be evil. Piss people off until they lose control of their emotions and say bunch of shit and record it.
Legally, the fact that you didn’t hang up the phone after that disclaimer means you consented.
Some states you don’t even need that. I live in a one-party state, so I wouldn’t need to tell someone they’re being recorded, as long as I knew they were.
It depends on the state. Not all states have two-party consent.
