Telegraph phone call?

I have missed a phone call yesterday and today from the Telegraph. When I phone back an answer machine says they will phone back but as I work, don't know when they can get back to me. How do I find out which comps I have entered. I have thanked as I enter comps. Hope it is a win and not a survey!!

    Hi,

    Sorry to say this but the telegraph are forever phoning folk and trying to get them to take out a subscription.

    They tried that with me last week, I demanded to know where they got my number and they replied I had entered a comp.

    Funny that as I never, ever use my landline for comps:rolleyes:
  • Sorry but I agree with shojo558! Had a call from the Telegraph this morning and also last week trying to sell me a subscription! I would have thought they would have left a message if you had won a prize!!

    Sorry but I think everyone is right, I had the same thing today, see HERE they're renowned for it I'm afraid.

    Had four calls from them this week. Only one actually talked to me - the others hung up when I answered. On the call that talked I was asked if I read the Telegraph and how often each week. That done the caller said thankyou and hung up.
