Toodlepips Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 Can anybody tell me how one would get off a call centre list (one of those when they dial hundreds of numbers and the first to answer gets the sales call, everyone else gets a dead line - very annoying!)Also, I've suddenly appeared in the telephone directory - I asked that I not be included when the phone was installed, but I'm in the new one - how do I make sure I'm not in the new one (or any subsequent ones)?Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clair Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 Assuming you are with France Telecom:There are several free services which can be taken up from the FT website: http://www.agence.francetelecom.com/masquer vos coordonnéesListe orange is if you don't want any marketing calls. Marketingcompanies can get your number even if you're on the liste orange, asthe Ft directories can be purchased by anyone. So any personne listed thereis a target. The only garantee you'll have is that FT will not haveSOLD your number directly to them...Liste chamois is if you don't want to be listed in the annuaire.Listerouge will do both and also prevent your number being given out bydirectory enquiries. Despite the scary looking advice shown on FT'swebsite, it will NOT stop emergency services from contacting you, butit will prevent any Joe Bloggs from getting your number "in case ofemergency". Presumably, anyone you know and trust already has your tel number, sochoosing not to be listed is the ONLY option to ensure FT does notprint/publish your contact details, therefore, stopping any marketingcompany from getting hold of them.Secret permanent will stop your number being displayed or redialled from 3131 on all your callsSecre appel par appel will do the saem on individual calls..I used to be on liste orange when FT used to charge for liste rouge, then went on liste rouge when it became free. I have NEVER received any marketing call.If you are not with France Telecom, you have to specifically request your tel supplier not to be included in the directory.links edited 09/09/08 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clair Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 I don't know about Orange per se, but I am with Neuf and I had to opt out of directory listing.I did that from my Neuf account page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anton Redman Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 I believe that as in the UK a call centre will be in breach o its terms and conditions if it calls a Liste Orange number. Certainly yht few calls we received after first registering were pretty applogetic. We have not received any at our new number which was Liste Orange from day one.
