I actually used an old laptop. Just in case the links were dodgy. Followed them through and got the phone number to a UK PPI company.
I phoned them about 100 times. Gave them the silent call treatment. Except some youtube spam songs every now and then.
Kids had some private hospital trying to sell them a plan.. They didnt like me phoning to complain.
Already checked it, and they seem to be a legit company offering some illegal tactics.
I had a smash last year (insurers notified, but other party paid), so that's the personal injury ones.
The others, I can only assume has been from using my phone to deal with DCA's for others. I 141 my number now, but never used to :mad:
I dealt with a few just before Kiev (so 2nd week November), and don't know if one of those has 'sold' my number to someone!
