Getting severely pissed off with call centres ringing every five minutes. was on the phone to my mate and when I put the phone down it rang straight away so I hung up, only to have another one as soon as the phone was down.
Is there a way to stop these calling? They are different companies each time and at the minute its just severely pissing us all off.
Ben.

The balls rolling, a company has taken us off 40,000 call centres and got rid of junk mail lists and also our mobile phones are cleared. The cost - £30 for peace of mind - gotta be worth it - and it comes with a gaurantee.

...or you could just join TPS like Cyber says, then phone up BT and ask for BT PRivacy - Caller ID and TPS and more for free! (if your with BT). We don't get any calls like that now.
And go ex-directory.
