Yell!

All our numbers are... but we advertise with Yellow Pages (only under the NICEIC Sub Heading) so I don't think the TPS will touch them.... On the other hand they have not right to call my mobile... I don't even make budget decisions!!!!

RWJ or anyone that gets an unwanted call from any British company tell them these words. "Telephone communication act 1988, you may not call this number again, please take it off your data base. Any further calls will be reported".

Telephone law, if they call you again after your request they can be fined by the ombudsman.

As people have said you have got to be really careful . I get calls all the time from companies saying i can be number one on their website. What chance have i got of getting work when i havent even heared of them. As with google it takes alot of work and no-one can garantee that.

I pay Yell £68 per month. I have had a few jobs from the add and so far it has more than paid for itself, just. However, shortly after my listing appeared I got a job through a friend that will probably take 9 months, at least. So I never bothered altering my listing and I only accept jobs that I can do over the weekend.

The salesman that sorted my advert out told me that I could advertise in a second region, as I live on the border between two Yell regions, and it wouldn't be that much extra but he assured me I would get loads of business from the one region. Loads of business? Definitely not and the phone calls I get are all local, all but one have been from my postcode, which suggests that most people find me by typing in their postcode and looking for an electrician.
