How to opt out of Simunix Ltd
- 1
Open the help page
Go to ukphonebook.com/help.
- 2
Send a suppression request
Use the online form. Simunix says a suppression request keeps your record off the site now and in the future. If you'd rather use paper, the same page has a written form that you complete and post to the York address it gives.

Wait
Online forms may take up to 2 working days. Posted forms can take up to 28.
Watch out for
- Posted requests are the slow route: up to 28 days, against up to 2 working days online.
- Google can keep showing your name for a while, because the help page says the entry leaves the search index only when Google next crawls the site.
