The law here states that these people are no longer
allowed to "Cold Call", you have to have contacted
them asking for information, but they are getting a
bit cute about their reasons for calling.
One company in Manchester has been calling me for
over a week now, several times per day, after ignoring
them, I got fed up and answered today, a young woman
tried to sell me a will writing service, I told her that I had
informed a co-worker in her office that my brother wrote
wills and if I wanted one that is where I would go.
I also asked why she was calling me in London, she said
because they were a local company and trying to keep
business in the local community!
I asked her why if she was a local company in London was
she calling from a telephone in Manchester, well that set her
off and she started shouting at me, I didn't listen to what she
was saying as I hung up the phone, I get the feeling that she
wasn't selling wills either, probably looking for some contact
details.
