How to Keep Your Mobile Number Private

Many are annoyed by the news that a company is providing a directory enquiry service for mobile phones without the permission of phone owners. (and the parents of children who have mobile phone - often given because of our concern for their security, not to allow a company to put through calls to them). Instead if you want to have your name taken off the directory, you have to contact the company. The first choice highlighted by the company is to text them (which may incur costs!)

You can have your number made ex-directory without incurring mobile phone charges by going to http://www.118800.co.uk/removeme/remove-me.html

If you are as annoyed by this company's attempt to infringe our right to privacy of our own information as I am - join me to in protesting to the company (email: shona.forster@118800.co.uk - don't use their feedback as you have to agree to THEIR terms and conditions concerning their use of your details) and passing on your concerns to your own MP
