We have had ACR on our NTL line for a good few years now and for a long time it was very effective.

During the last 12 months or so, we have been getting an increasing amount of these automated calls. Reminds me of the Simpsons episode where Homer finds an autodialler. 'If you want happiness, send $1 to Happy Dude, 742 Evergreen Terrace'.

As soon as you pick up the call, you can tell what it's going to be - I more or less put the phone down straight away.

I have registered with TPS, but so far can't say that I've noticed any difference.
