Use telemarketing Companies own number online to avoid nuisance calls

I have obtained several landline numbers of these PPI and Insurance type claims companies.

These companies ignore all laws - like TPS opting out - and buy your number if you use it in any online forms like Comparison sites

I use these numbers instead of my own landline number on the internet when i want a quote or something.
The beauty is - these scumbags will be buying their own telephone number, and might be even bombarding themselves with sales calls.

The Claim Guys (PPI claims calls) 01706 751320

Life Secure Financial Services (Insurance cover sales) 01892 576669

Another one - cannot remember what they were selling - 0203 3183167

Anyone got any other numbers we can circulate ??

Like I said, if you use these numbers on online forms they are buying their own number back, and you should get less calls.
Obviously if you do later buy something, you can then change the number back to your real phone number, but still be aware of the "tick boxes"

I do this all the time.

Also if someone cuts me up in a serious matter on the road in a liveried vehicle then I will use their number - but it has to be a serious infringement or I'd be using everyones number - more the person who has no regard for others.

Checked the phone and had a missed call, dialled it with 141 in front and got a recorded message stating 'Press 1 if you want your number removed'.
Obviously I didn't and don't know what they were selling/promoting but the number is: 01394803102

I have lost count the amount of times I have had the PPI one. At least is was to the mobile and not the land line. What gets to me is when they call then hang up, or put you on hold.
The best one I have had is the car accident one. The thing is I do not drive. I was so fed up when this one called, I let the guy at the other end chat for a few mins, then dropped the I do not drive on him. This company has never called back.
