    Yup,I get them all the time since I signed up for my credit report from one of those 'reputable' companies you see on TV.
    At one stage I was getting about 10 calls per day to my home & mobile as well as the texts,now it's mainly the texts.
    AND being TPS registered didn't stop the companies in the UK calling me!

    Could try complaints here. They may be able to help or you may have to change your number (v. inconvenient) but necessary to put an end to it.
