Tortured by debt management companies?

Where do these people get my number? I've had 4 calls today on my mobile and 2 on the landline from various companies.

I've had calls from various Debt Management companies, various payment protection companies,

Do you get these calls? I'm on the TPS but it hasn't made any difference. They have really taken of this past week

    Yes they come in waves... tell them each time that you are on the TPS and that you expect them to remove you from the list and inform the calling service to remove you from their list too (most of them use a Canadian company to place the 50k calls with "Hi, this is a public service announcement... if you have debt... press 2 to speak to one of our advisors..." eventually they'll get the message :)
