we have been registered with this for ages and we still get the calls.................
an elderly friend of mine was hounded by sales calls for new windows etc to the point of sheer exasperation......... the final straw was a very pushy sales men who wanted to sell her a conservatory........ after chatting away for an hour on the phone he finally persuaded her to make an appointment for a saleman to call............ the day arrived and the door went.......... she opened it to find a VERY frustrated salesman demanding to know WHY she had made an appointment for him to call about buying a conservatory when she lived in a flat two flights up.......... she then responded in her sweetest voice..... but the man only asked if i was interested NOt if there was room to build one!

lolol

By the way i find both spam and direct mail a pain in the rear end but direct mail is so much more of a hassle..... with spam all i have to do is hit delete
