Am I just too cynical to register and pay for this when all I'm doing is giving my details to yet another anonymous web based company? Am I the only one to suspect that the people selling the subscriptions to block calls are also the same ones that generate them?

callpreventionregistry.co.uk want £37.50 a year sunscription and I don't trust that they would be effective

Me too along with the FAX version and it stopped 99% of the calls. No charge for the services.

A good answer machine that doesn't record the hang ups ? only downside is you have to call back people you want to speak to if you dont get to the telephone fast enough. Other than that works a treat for me regardless who is calling.

Thanks all, signed up to TPS now. Apparently takes up to 28 days before all the marketing callers get their databases synced up with TPS. It's against the law to call once I've told people I don't want their calls and registered.

Of course that's not going to stop calls from offshore companies who don't give a **** but....we'll see
