    Does this mean you're not registered with the Telephone Preference Service?

    If not, maybe you should be.

    Definately do this - after doing it, the number of calls has reduced to something like 1 or 2 a month whereas it used to be 3 or 4 a week. Sodding Nationwide windows keep calling me up every month though:mad: :mad:

    TPS doesn't stop offshore calls though, and for UK calls they won't do anything unless you answer and get the name of the company etc.
