Telemarketing: latest reports

Live sales and marketing calls that visitors did not ask for.

Common signs

  • A live caller reading from a script about an offer, subscription or service.
  • A "limited time" offer, or a request to confirm details they claim to already have.

What to do

  • Say clearly: "Put me on your do-not-call list", then hang up.
  • Note the company name and date. Legitimate sellers must honour that request.
  • Register your number on the National Do Not Call Registry if you have not.

What to avoid

  • Do not agree to anything on the call, including a "free trial".
  • Do not confirm your card or bank details to "verify" an offer.

Questions people ask

How do I stop calls from one company?

Ask to be added to the company's own do-not-call list and keep a note of when you asked. Continued calls after that can be reported.
