It's because there's a full stop at the end of the link - I had the same problem yesterday with my blog!

Try www.expansys.com/TrueCall

I've just had a read of it - if I phoned someone and I wasn't on their list I wouldn't be happy having to announce myself first!

How expensive is that?

If I was having trouble with my creditors because I couldn't pay them, now way would I pay nearly 80 quid for a piece of machinery!

I can pay BT for Choose to Refuse, ignore the call, change my number or refuse to answer security questions.

All a lot cheaper!

We've got caller display so if I don't feel like answering the phone I don't - at least I know who I'm ignoring!

Our phone is unplugged half the time as his Mum rings at all random hours to say random stuff, I know that's not nice but believe me at 2am you don't want to hear I'm having salmon for my tea tonight or similar! All others have our mobile numbers so if it's important they can ring these.
IVA final payment left the bank on the 26th January 2013...looking forward to a debt free future.

Dave's mum doesn't know we've got a landline! It's not that she'd ring all the time, but she might give it to his sons or his ex wife and we don't want them phoning!

My parents have my landline, but if they ring in the night, I know it's important.

Otherwise I can answer or not as I choose.

My mum has the number, and Dave's mum will ring on his mobile if she needs to. That saves his sons ringing when they are drunk or his ex wife ringing to tell up she's got a new car or sofa - I don't like boasting at the best of times as it can hurt other peoples' feelings, and I certainly don't want to hear it from her.

The Dragons Den rated it, but if you are struggling with finances, it is a lot of money to pay out.

It is a lot of money - I much preferred to sort it out myself.
