Last Wednesday I got an automated phone call from some outfit claiming that I was entitled to a grant for a new boiler, they also did solar panels and to press 2 to speak to an advisor. Their phone number was withheld.My phone number is registered with the TPS of course so I shouldn't get that type of call.
Last Thurday I had the same phone call.
Last Friday I had the same phone call.
I've just had the same phone call again. So this time I pressed 2 to get through to someone. I asked them for the name of their company. They said with a very strong accent what I think was Green Deal Scheme. I doubt if that's their genuine name as that's the name for the grant scheme.
I then asked for their phone numer. They didn't give it and they phone went dead.
However this time I could see the phone number. It's one which has been reported many times for this sort of phone call.
But I have just reported my calls as above to the Information Commissioners Office
