Making my landline ex-directory
Making your number ex-directory means that it won’t appear in the phone book or the 118 directory service, which is a great way to avoid nuisance and cold calls. This is a free service, so making your number ex-directory won't add anything to your bill.

How long will it take to activate?
It may take a little time for this to take effect. Making your number ex-directory will mean your number will be removed from all future issues of the phone book, though unfortunately, it can't remove it from anything that’s already been published.
