3 yearsJust yesterday, I was browsing for health insurance on "Compare the Market." Since then, I’ve been bombarded with nine missed calls from three separate numbers. It’s all quite irritating and certainly unwelcome! I’ve resolved not to put my details online again.5 yearsThis number keeps ringing me but I never pick up since it looks dodgy and proper callers always leave a voicemail. Just like others have said, right after the call I got a text about some 'compare the market' thing that I’m pretty sure I didn’t ask about.5 yearsI reckon they’re just some kind of broker and are ringing up people out of the blue.5 yearsI didn’t pick up since I’d just checked an online insurance quote for people over 50.6 yearsI got a call from this number, then later received a text from someone else totally different thanking me for asking about something I never actually enquired about. Weird!6 yearsLast night, I was looking into health insurance through Compare the Market but chose not to continue with it. This morning alone, I got six calls from four separate numbers, and when I checked who they belonged to, it turned out to be Compare the Market.

Now, I’m just blocking all their calls.Compare the Market6 yearsJust got a call from someone trying to sell me stuff saying they’re from Compare the Market.
