    upc/ntl keep texing me telling me my bill is due 3 weeks before due date, if i dont want some of my services disconnected .i sould pay straight away....sick .i keep ringing them to complain but keep getting the same oh just ignore them quote. no i wont ignore them there harrassing me for money before they should, almost a bloody month before.

    i will agree upc/ntl have improved slightly, but this is a pain in the kyber.

    Send them a letter (old fashioned thing consisting of text written on paper usually in ink) instructing them to not contact you by phone. Sign it, photocopy it (for your records) and send it by post. Businesses tend to be less inclined to ignore paper communication so it's often better than phone calls or emails.

    Tell them that you will charge them a fee for having to deal with their unwanted correspondence. €5 a text should make them stop
