Plusnet won't stop calling.

Options
Last week I priced up a fibre deal on the Plusnet website but didn't complete it due to me working out I was still tied to BT until May (due to agreeing to a 12 month contract extension to keep the Caller Display option free).

Since then I have had several calls originating from Plusnet, none of which have made it through my TrueCall box. I wonder how long before they give up.

It might be a coincidence, but I also had call from a different Sheffield number that several websites suggest is a "you've won a free prize" scam. Makes me wonder if Plusnet have sold on my landline number.

    Hi
    I also priced up through plusnet & got a couple of calls. They wanted to see if I needed any assistance signing up or if I had any queries.
    I haven't had any other nuisance calls though.

    Same problem with Vodaphone. After a couple of calls I answered and told them I don't want to go with Vodaphone. No more calls.

    So if we do that with broadband providers how can they check to see what the phone line will support?

    :rotfl:

    So your advice is to use your neighbour's number without their permission?

    I expected that answer. I'm not even going to try. Can't teach someone who already knows everything.
