Get new number
AdsIf the relentless tide of nuisance calls proves too much to bear you are recommended to consider the purchase of a new phone number. This way you can actually lower the costs of your phone bill since providers tend to offer even better condition on their contracts after every year or two. It would be wise to take your time and have a closer look at providers and their offers available to you. Once your number was sucked into the insatiable vortex of a callcenter’s data base the possibility of you being left alone is quasi non existent. Carry your old number to the grave and embrace a new one even if this requires more efforts in the restoration of your own address book.
Handle your new number with care! Only give it to people your know! Avoid at cost the distribution of your number for the sake to “serious” lotteries and similar phone number phishing endeavors. You should also consider not to divulge your number on world wide web.
