Spam call about life insurance

Options
Anyone has a spam call from an Edinburgh company about life insurance? Couldn't get the name but want to find the comp so I can alert future entrants. Bon Accord or something like that? Not finding anything on a search.

too many comps..not enough time!

    From other posts, I believe Bon Accord are already on the Spam list and have been for some time.

    Think they said something about "Smarter life insurance" too. Very annoying and persistent even after I told them I wasn't interested. I only enter comps off here so it's either been removed or here under a different name.

    Sadly seems to be on the rise.. i work at a insurance firm, and hear about brokers cold calling customers, making out they are actually us; phishing for info, and pushing new 'cheaper' policies onto people, not mentioning the cover they get has also been reduced..

    be careful out there! Any genuine firm would announce who they are, and freely give a contact name & number, or office address for you to check on the firm's website..
    breathe in, breathe out- You're alive! Everything else is a bonus, right? RIGHT??
