I've had a number of called from a company called Sprint Communications, based in Telford on this number: 01242 353007.
Their opening line is something like:
"We're calling about your O2 contract which is nearing the end of its' term and we'd like to talk to you about saving stack loads of money on a replacement."
When querying this, they say they have access to your account details and are an authorised re-seller with O2.
They aren't. O2 told me today they've never heard of this company and recommended I block that 01242 number on my mobile. They may be a highly reputable firm, but they don't like being told to leave you alone. I had three calls this afternoon before blocking the number.
