Some relief can be obtained by Registering with the Telephone Preference Service (free) - www.tpsonline.org.uk . After 28 days, you can then report the offending number to the TPS.
Another report can be made to the Information Commissioner's Office about the possible misuse of data - ico.org.uk .
Should you be receiving "Silent" or "Abandoned" calls, these can be reported to Ofcom - www.ofcom.org.uk/phones-telecoms-and-internet/... .
These steps do not stop all anoying calls, but the official bodies can only take action against the offenders if enough people make complaints!

We are with talk talk and the best thing we ever did was to activate call blocking.
if anyone calls us -like family or are in our phone book, the call goes straight through.
if someone calls and they really want to speak to you they record a short message like 'hi its the doctors surgery' then you listen and press 1 to accept and they are through.
Most spam callers just hang up.....bliss
Bt offer the same service
