Thanks to Grumbler for the link.
Had a contact telephone call but hadn't heard of them. Wanted to check up on them and found that my initial alarms confirmed.

The reason for your post s not clear.

As the organisations's initials are the same as and the name is broadly similar to the (free) Telephone Preference Service, I think we can guess what their game is.

The OP originally posted this elsewhere on the forum.


Grummbler pointed the correct place for it.

The "real" TPS has a list of dubious organisations on a warning page HERE.

One of the ones mentioned is Telecom Protection Service which is pretty similar sounding to the OP's caller.

I was telephoned by Telephone Protection Service telling me that they had been informed that I had had a spate of nuisance calls. They offered me a service for 3 years barring such calls for 60p a week, totally free after that.
As I had never heard of them, I said I wanted to think about it. I was given their number and place of business - Bournemouth. Checking them out for an expected call the next day, I found this site.

Why even 'think' about it-all they will do is register you with the TPS, which you can do yourself for no cost, if you are not already registered.
And did you not wonder how a third party could possibly have access to records of your incoming phone calls? The answer, of course, is that they don't, it's just a scam.
