You shouldn't have to pay for caller display- mine is free and was when I set up my BT account a few years ago.
From memory, you need to go here: http://www.productsandservices.bt.com/consumerProducts/displayTopic.do?topicId=25504
Go to "home phone security features", and sign up for BT privacy at home pack, which is free and include caller display.

Thanks all.
Many kind and helpful replies, i'll look into blocking the numbers. We DO have caller display on the home phone, but i have an eager 13yr old who answers the phone hoping its for her, and then announces to me, in a loud voice "it's for you, it's asda credit card services"
