Don't know if it works with CG calls.

Try a seach on www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/youandyours

They had an article on it a few weeks/months ago.

Or if that fails, e-mail them on

Let them know you have trouble with these calls and what can you do?

These addresses are purely from memory, but think they're good.

I started getting nuisance calls at work last week, one day I got about six, so I phoned the line provider to ask what they could do. I was told to call the police and report it, get a crime number and call them back!!!

call BT and explain to them the problem and they should give you a website address (i can't remember it ) I am with telewest and they were great and gave me the site. Log on and you need to have the numbers that have been calling you. The computer generated ones are a pain in the as* as the number that is left on your phone is sometimes not recognized by the sites that can cancel the calls. Give it a go though buddy

Agree completely. I was paying £1.25 per month for caller ID, then found this by accident. It's available to existing customers as well as new ones, it's free, and it includes caller ID and registration to the TPS. Great idea and in my case has saved me money!
