Unwanted marketing phone calls.

sandie3

Hello everyone,
Ive just received a phone call from a company in Leeds,(withheld number) she wouldnt give the company name, but told me they were doing surveys for pain relief machines for conditions such as arthritis and would be "in my area demonstrating them". I asked how she got both my name and phone number and she said i was on a "national database" and my details could be accessed via this. To my knowledge im not on ANY public data base, i am ex directory and not on the published electoral roll. I would like to ask if anyone else has had this type of phone call and if there IS such a data base.
Any help you are able to give would be very much appreciated. many thanks

No there is not - they have bought the list from somebody - it could even be your local authority.
Have you registered with BT to stop unwelcome sales calls?

By the way this is the credit card board so you may get a better response in the Phones section.
