Register with TPS, then they can't ring you and if they do report them and they'll get a fine :hihi:. It takes a few weeks but will put a stop to the calls after a while, as it will show on their computers that you are registed with the TPS.:D

There was a product on dragon's den last night called truecall that is designed to deal with exactly this sort of thing. You can get them online but they're about £80.
