in the UK you can go on a list for a small fee that means cold callers are in breach of the law if they call your number. call centres all check their data against this list. if they call you after you are registered then they are liable for a hefty fine and you can sue them. once registered, you start to pray for a old call as a handy bonus payout.

I am on that list and apart from 3 weeks of knacker you get no sales calls other than from your own bloody bank! It is a free service from BT.

ah, the telephone preference service - i remember it well.

there's no fee, you just go to the Telephone Preference Service and register. Stops junk mail and calls from the UK.

If it were only applicable in these forums...

If you demote to a lower league you get much less guestbook spam

In the Netherlands you can register for free.

True.

I get guestbook spam all the time.

I wonder if banning people for it is a good anti spam method...
