    I would never enter a comp with these people they will bug you every single day (in my experience) it got to the point were I would answer the phone with "helloo Mychild what can I do for you today" - the person on the other end would always chicken when I said that and put the phone down. I kept being awkward and asking them questions about their incessant mithering and eventually they gave up thank God!

    Just had a call from My Child. Thought here goes ~ "if I haven't won anything, you're wasting your time."
    Actually very nice sounding young woman asked me what the problem was. So I told her to google the phone number that she had rung me on, and have a look at the comments on MSE about the company, and that would tell her what the problem was. She said thanks for telling her (she gets the email from MSE) and she would look it up.
    So obviously she's new to the job!!!!!! poor woman.

    I had a call last night from them. very pleasant woman started the call but the minute she said her name then she was calling from My Child I said - "No thanks!" "Er, no thanks to what?" me - "Anything, your company keeps calling & pestering me when I have asked before to be taken off this damn list" she was then all clipped tones "Well thank YOU, goodBYE!"

    Why won't they get the message? stupid.gif

    My partner had a call today from this number. Very rude, also I am on the TPS. Only entered a comp 3 days ago on that site for the first time.

    Hi

    Not sure if everyone knows about this site http://www.whocallsme.com but it's useful to find out which numbers are 'genuine' ... saves you wondering whether you've won a big prize or not and getting disappointed!
  • I havent had a call off these ones yet, but il stick it in the phone so I know to avoid it if they do ring!
