    do remember there is also a fax preference service to cut down junk faxes (linked from either of the above sites and also with the telephone preference service you can add your mobile numbers to cut down on junk text messages too.

    a little follow up is often required so if you get a junk call / text just call the company (not on their premium rate number) and inform them you are on the prefrence list and they are breaking the law and will be reported if they contact you again, they usualy stop pretty quickly same applies if you get junk mail, phone the company and tell them you will report them and they will remove you immediatly from their mailing list.
