Since ive had an ad on yell.com ive had no end of people calling trying to sell me stuff!!

 I had 4, yes 4  letters the other day from different accounting firms offering their services!!

Ive told yell.com i dont want to buy a paid listing and they wont stop ringing me!!!!

Do yell.com sell lists of names or do these people just look on the website and target new advertisers??

When I was in sales thats what everyone used to target new business, used to be the books, would be easier now with things being online

When I started up a web company long time ago now, I used to call all the 0800 numbers to save on my phone bills then hit area codes and big adverts
