Luckily, I opened the post while my wife was standing next to me, else I would be living in fear of the 'chilli oil in the underpants' revenge.

Well, I'm pleased to see the vast majority are a little more welcoming than Tally-Ho.

I called my Mother on Monday, she told me I had some post, I said I wasn't expecting anything & asked her to open it... I'll get your Dad to open it she said, I heard her cover the receiver and ask "is it dirty?"

Imagine my horror, the shame, the humiliation. Anyway, my Dad googled the address & told me about this thread. The delivery address was in Coventry, I have purchased on eBay & Amazon recently but don't recognise any of the UB business'. I have also used the comparison sites that have been mentioned. I've also been declared bankrupt in the past, which was my first thought as to where the details came from, however, you all seem a little more reputable than me so guess that's not the case.

When I finally pluck up the courage to show my face at my Parent's house I'm going to look into who owns the copyright of the material & see if any law has been broken there. Fingers crossed we can nail the company & have them shut down... oh, wait, sorry Tally-Ho, I forgot... all of us have conspired to make up this thirteen page thread... what a deluded ****nut!

My hub also received these. They were sent to his parents address where he hasn't lived for more than 5 years. So the source of the addresses might be old.

I've just phoned BT and it's not recognised by their system. I'm not entirely surprised by this as there are many companies out there who buy 0843/4/5/0870 etc numbers from BT and then sell them (and their own tariffs) on to businesses to use to generate revenue.

Given the positive response nigelbrooks has received from the Met Police vice team (see his posts nos. 59, 61, 132 & 177), I'm sure they will use all their powers to investigate this matter - I'd love to hear the final outcome, but I'd be happy just not to receive any more unsolicited !!!!!!! :j

Katy (if I may) et al, if I get any feedback at all or anything hits my local press (as both my home and the distribution centre for this material are in the same borough) I will post details here.
