What can be done to reduce these parasites calling our phone? The Telephone Preference Agency is a waste of time as their Code is voluntary and going ex-directory doesn't have any effect on all the existing phone number lists. Hasn't helped us, anyway.

Shouting at them, stringing them along and other time-wasting practices are at best only of use once and too stressful to do with any frequency.

Is it worthwhile to change one's phone number and then go ex-directory, perhaps? Would VM agree to this?
