I know this is nothing to do with the Atari or even computers, But does anyone
know how to stop all the telephone calls from companys selling .
I have calls on average 7 times a week trying to sell me kitchens,windows and
more kitchens.They come anyday and anytime up to 9pm at night. 
Is there any way to stop this.It makes me annoyed and I often just slam the
phone down on them.
Trouble is why should I have to put up with this intrusion into my life week in
week out. 
Any help would be really appreciated

Phil

Why post it in here then?

Trouble is, why should we have to put up with this intrusion into our
newsgroup.

Try going ex-directory, oh, and try another newsgroup.

Thanks for the help all,

Robs suggestion seems the best idea to have calls barred that use 141.
Cant really go ex directory as I work from home and use it as a business line.
The latest now is for hospitals to phone up asking for money,This was after they
saw my add in the paper.
I do really get fed up with them,I get enough rubbish email as it is,coming
into my Falcon.

Paul ,Sorry about posting here with a non Atari problem.Didnt quite know
where else to go.You suggested another news group,Is there one for this topic do
you know.  

Thanks 
Phil

Grab an active file (which lists all the available groups) from /pub/news
on ftp.demon.co.uk, a group in the uk.* hierarchy would probably be best.

demon.local, uk.misc, and/or perhaps uk.telecom, uk.people.consumers.
