Half the time the TPS doesn't even work and it can also take up 6 months to effectively even make a difference

Unless of course you like them?:lol:

Totally useless ...

There are also companies, usually operating from overseas that are running scams. One of the most common is based on a bogus PC support service where their aim is to get you to pay for an unnecessary service or gain access to personal information on your PC.


:rolleyes:

After about 10 calls with my various humorous (to me) responses, my wife Kathy outdid me and answered with "windows? I don't want my windows washed!" The person actually got mad and said " no, no! Your computer has a problem and I will fix it." Kathy replied, "but I don't have a computer". The person hung up. These have become FUN calls!

That tps service?

I was getting regular spam calls everyday which involved me wiping all the answerphone messages every day or picking up the phone and telling them to **** off.

I registered with the tps thingie three months ago and in that time I've only had two spam calls.

So it worked for me, the calls stopped more or less overnight.
