As is the Do Not Call Register
Tue 23 Jul, 2013 4:01 pm
The don't call register is only good if They respect it. They are under no obligation to do that.
That's what I was told by one of the callers.
I am on that register and it doesn't stop the calls.
When those bods rang up the other day I told him I'd give them a ring when I kicked the bucket and get a price then.

unlisting your ph no might not help either, mines unlisted, i was still being rung, some companies at least take known numbers and change the last digit to find unlisted no's.....

There are exemptions to the do not call register:
Once your numbers are listed on the register, telemarketers and fax marketers must not contact you.
Some groups can still contact you after you register. These include charities, research companies, political parties and educational institutions.
We are on the register. If we get a marketing call, I ask them for their details and then ask them if they have heard of the DNC register. Usually they can't get off the phone soon enough.
