Prevent unwanted calls and text messages by following our simple steps…

Step 1

Register with the Telephone Preference Service!  Organisations are not allowed, by law, to call numbers that have been registered with the Telephone Preference Service for more than 28 days but, if you register, you should see a reduction in telemarketing calls much sooner than 28 days.  And, if you’ve registered once, you’re registered for life (unless you change your mobile or landline number).

Step 2

Here we will provide you with device related advise to block those nuisance calls and text messages;

Alternatively, a number swap can be carried out with your mobile network*.  This is an irreversible action that will relinquish the current mobile number, and replace it with a new mobile number.
