Nuisance phone calls

Post by bornintheuk »

The French government has created a new site to prevent these "sales" call from reaching you. It replaces Pacitel as from Today.
You can register at http://www.bloctel.gouv.fr/
Lets see if it works.

Be good if it did, but how long before ways are found around it?

On the other hand, I quite enjoy saying to the caller "va te faire f**tre". Seems to reduce the number of calls for a while.

I signed as a consumer but I did wonder whether it would allow hubby to re-register as a business. I am unsure whether how you registered affected the types of phone calls that should be blocked?
