I classify them as 'Enhanced and advanced extortion'. Making money out of distressed and worried customers just because they are to lazy to investigate nuicence calls and the source.
Anonymous Caller Rejection is offered free on most Voip providers including BT's Broadband Talk service.
How to deal with nuicence and unsolicited calls:
Get a phone with Number Display
Order Caller Display for the line
Register with the TPS
Anonymous caller? Just let it go to voicemail or Answer machine
Don't include your name or any phone numbers on your personal greetings
That should help reduce the amount of unwanted calls, however if you are BT customer, you can register for BT Privacy with Free Caller Display, that automatically registers you onto the TPS.
However,everytime you get a sales and marketing phone call, you need to write down the time,date and any caller identification details such as the number they called from and then pass it onto the TPS, but be aware, it takes 28 days for the TPS service to become active on your registered telephone/mobile numbers.
