How to cancel phone books

My heart groaned when I saw the plastic-covered White Pages on my front door.  I’ll recycled them un-opened.  I don’t use them.

A neighbour, Steven, just sent me a link where I’ve been able to cancel the White Pages and all the other phone books I get but don’t want – the cancellation lasts for three years.

If you wish to cancel any one or more of your phone books, go to:

    This is an ongoing battle for me. I have joined every Do Not Call/Do Not Deliver list I can. It has had no effect. I recently recycled the last ones to arrive and despite telling myself it wasn’t worth the effort, was mightily peeved.

    The last time I did it I phoned Sensis. A short while later a truck went by flinging White Pages into every drive. I stopped him and said “No. I have cancelled it” to which he replied “You have to take them”.

    I have a theory about the website. Its like those buttons at traffic lights: you push them but they make bugger-all difference. They give you the illusion of being in control.

    I shall try again – my blood pressure can’t stand the alternative.
