About a month ago I was looking through some price comparision websites and one of them (a company called Switch Electric & Gas) asked me for a phone number. I'm not stupid and know how some of these companies work so put my Skype number in instead.
Since then, I've been bombarded with missed calls from them. Thankfully I only use thie Skype number or rare occasions so it doesn't really bother me, but I did search the number and found a lot of website with people complaining about be pestered by the company. It seems they use extremely agressive tactics to get you to change suppliers. It was never made clear to me that they were going to add my number to a database and keep calling me. Naughty.
I tried to email them but surprise surprise, the email was rejected. I've called them today and asked them to remove my number from their database. The rude cretin I spoke to assures me that the number as been removed.
