I am getting daily spam calls from Sky trying to sell me something - the number comes up as 0800 761 3362 - these are at all sorts of times weekends, evenings etc.
I am not a Sky customer and have no interest in becoming one given previous bad experiences with them

Sky can get around the obvious measure of me blocking the number on my iphone - and it the usual rubbish when you try and call them to try and stop this - e.g. sign into your account ’cos we can’t be bothered talking to you - but as I am not a customer I don’t have an account (d’oh)
How do I stop these people from continually phoning me?
I thought there were rules stopping this sort of thing?

Advise them to remove you from any marketing.
If they don't, you can complain to the ICO.0 -
I suggest you email their data protection department at dp.department@sky.uk, instructing them to ERASE your telephone number, and to not contact you by telephone, post or email for marketing.
Sky replied within a couple of days of my email, stating that they added my telephone number to their "suppression list". I have not received a call from them since.1
