Dayjo.
Ooh what you using the ballraces for. I used to fit loads of them all different sizes on the printing machines I worked on. 607 2zr shielded mostly on the ink/fount system rollers as they collapsed the most. God that's sad its still I have that inside my head.

Just thought, those phishing emails started when I used my other than personal email for the first time on here.

Same here, you can expect one offering you beautiful Russian brides!  ;)

.. having said that the phone is rarely plugged in...
Without a doubt this is almost the cheapest and most certain way to avoid cold callers.


It's easy enough to check caller id and ignore or pick up and hang up but my annoyance was going to the phone to check or finding the answering machine full of Green Deal automated calls.


I did have a cheap number blocker but the Green Dealers made that useless by using apparently randon and constantly changing spoofed caller ids.

Welcome.


Cold callers just use random number diallers so you must have been very lucky.
Most emails get spammed but if your email provider has a decent spam blocking mechanism you probably won't see them. It's very rare for me to get any spam at all in my inbox.

I must say using this Sky phone shield has reformed my phone, no bad calls for two days, not one. The only thing I had to do was to ask Sky to activate it and then put the callers numbers in that I was OK to receive and that was it, best of all as I have Sky it was completely free. I understand BT do a similar scheme. I noticed new person Emmy said she had no nuisance call. Lucky her

I get at least three phone calls a day from companies who want to sell me something so I don't answer the phone unless I see the caller ID . When I've told the people I belong to TPS they don't know what I'm talking about but my biggest nuisance is I get at least twenty spam e mails a day grrrrrrrrr drives me spotty xxxxx
