Got a call from UK Legal Services, they said my info was sent to them since I showed interest in a Will. Told the lady I never actually asked about it. She wanted to post me a letter, but I told her I already sorted my Will out. She asked if it was recent, said yes, then she goes "that's why our records aren't up to date!" What a load of rubbish! Properly annoyed 😡

The woman sounded quite polite, suggesting I’d asked about making a will. I asked her where she’d got the details from but didn’t quite catch what she said. I told her I’d never made any enquiries and had just gone directly to a solicitor when I decided to sort it out a while back. I advised her to find her information somewhere else. Saw that the earlier reports were ages ago. Have they been quiet for a bit before kicking off again? I’m on the TPS, so it’s really quite frustrating.

Just got a call from some outfit pushing will writing services - they reckoned I wanted to update mine. I said no and that my number was unlisted. When I asked where they got my number from, they claimed it was from a survey I’d done. Asked which survey specifically and they just hung up. Total cold call con - best to just block and forget about it.

Got a call from 08009540184 and my missus answered, thinking it might be a mate trying to catch us before we headed out. Turns out, the caller at 08:45 on 30th April 2018 asked if she’d made a will. She told them that’s private info and she doesn’t share that with strangers. Ended the call straight away. Just thought I’d share this so others know what sort of rubbish calls we get. Calling before 9 in the morning? Totally not on unless it’s a close mate.

This morning at around 8.45, my wife picked up the phone and a stranger immediately asked if she'd arranged a will recently. She told them that's quite private and she wouldn’t be discussing such matters with anyone she doesn’t know. After that, she just ended the call. Honestly, ringing someone before 9 in the morning? You'd expect it to be a mate wanting a quick catch-up, not some random person asking awkward questions.

Got a call at 8.45am on Monday, 30 April 2018, and my wife assumed it was a mate ringing before we headed out for the day. But no, the person on the other end asked if she had sorted her will out. She immediately said that was private and she’s not going to tell a stranger that kinda stuff. Then she just ended the call. Really annoying, especially so early in the morning, and they didnt even bother to say who they were first.

Got a call about making a will. Not quite sure if it was a scam or legit but since we've already got our wills sorted, it was just a no for us. They did say sorry for bothering though, so maybe they were genuine. Still, I’d never trust anyone who rings you out of the blue like that!

They rang yesterday and spoke to my husband, saying that I'd asked about making a will, even though they never asked for me. He told them I wasn't in. When he told me, I said I hadn't enquired at all since we've already got one sorted. He said he did find that a bit odd. What's happened to data protection? They shouldn’t have told my husband what the call was about in the first place. I’m actually looking forward to them calling again so I can have a word with them. I’ll be making it very clear what I think of their tactics.

This number belongs to dig but the call actually comes from some dodgy place in bangalore. They completely ignore TPS and won’t take your number off even after you’ve asked three times. Give them a bell on their Watford line, 01923 281700, and warn them about legal action. Samantaha Pocock is the compliance manager supposedly, but she claims she hasn’t a clue how they got your number in the first place. So dig, if you’re listening, be brave and reply here. They’re dodgy as hell.

By Samuel 4 weeks ago Since it was an 0800 number, I thought it wise to ring them back. I ended up with a recorded message directing me to another number, 08000526871, so I gave that a go as well. Surprise, surprise, another recorded spiel! It did, however, give me the chance to leave my name, number, and postcode to be removed from their lists. I left my number but opted out of sharing my address, requesting them to stop disturbing me. Should they persist in their calls, I shall simply ring them back whenever I'm feeling a bit cheeky and leave a message along the lines of 'Greetings, yet another unsolicited call, cheerio!' The company behind this is known as Consumer Lifestyles DLG, and a quick search online reveals quite a bit about them.

Just got a call a bit ago from this number, and weirdly the voicemail was just a bloke saying "Oh no, not again." Sounds like he was annoyed after hitting my answer machine. Honestly, if they’re not gonna leave a proper message, they should just not bother ringing. I usually hate being harsh or rude to people who are just doing their jobs, but these calls are starting to test my patience big time. I’m signed up with the TPS, so I don’t get spam calls often, but every so often one slips through the cracks.

Since the number was an 0800 freephone, I decided to ring back. The first response was a recorded voice directing me to dial 08000526871. When I called that, another automated message came up, offering to take your name, number and postcode if you want to be removed from their list. I only gave my phone and asked them to remove me and stop pestering me. If they keep ringing, I’ll just call back and leave a message like “hi, just another annoying call, cheers.” The company’s called Consumer Lifestyles DLG - if you search online, loads of info pops up about them.

Since it was an 0800 number, I decided to ring back. A voicemail gave me a different number, 08000526871, so I dialled that one next. Of course, it was another recorded message, but this time they offered the chance to leave your name, phone number and postcode to be removed from their list. I gave my number but left out my address, asked to be taken off their database and not to call me again. If they persist in ringing, I’ll pick up again when I’m bored and leave a cheeky message like ‘hello, just another irritating call, cheers’. The company is called Consumer Lifestyles DLG - a quick Google search reveals heaps of info on them.

Got a call from a bloke in the UK who sounded quite polite. Once I told him I’m not into wills and mentioned I’m on the TPS list, he ended the call pretty fast. Just wondering who these people actually are and if they’re breaking the rules? Should they be fined or something?

Got a call from a woman claiming to be from a Will-writing service, using my name and number. When I asked how they got my details, she mentioned some sort of tick box, but I never gave an address or anything, so no idea what list they’re talking about. She promised to send info through the post but never asked for my address. She did say sorry and that they’d remove me from their list - but whose list? And how did my number get on it? These days, you just can’t trust who’s got your info. Even the TV Licence people seem sketchy - why should we have to answer strangers ringing up? Times have totally changed, yet some firms still won’t adapt. Politicians have left us exposed to profits-hungry companies, and honestly, it feels like we’re heading for disaster. Those posh accents on the phone are as bad as bailiffs or TV Licence inspectors turning up unexpectedly. Some pretend to be council workers, while others deliver to the wrong house or pretend to read energy meters. Wearing a uniform helps, but apart from the postman (who just brings junk mail and leaflets), nobody’s really trustworthy. With all the talk of conflict in the news, it’s only going to get worse. We can’t trust strangers, full stop. They’ve banned carol singing and Guy Fawkes pennies for safety, so why not ban this kind of harassment too? The BBC has four channels, yet two barely start until 7pm. Surely they could use them for advertising or raising awareness instead of constantly chasing people for money? Considering the scandals with people like Jim Savile, viewers deserve some kind of refund, not higher charges. And now there’s talk of charging for online viewing too - while in the US, it’s free! No one ever asks MPs about this stuff because no one knocks on doors or protests anymore. Big companies are trampling over our rights - cold calls, junk mail, bullying about payments - it’s frightening. Am I even safe living here? Can I leave my house without worry? It’s clear those in charge try to dodge responsibility and exploit the law for profit. Take people like factory workers struggling to keep going in tough times - democracy feels parasitic, sucking the life out of folks just to move on to the next victim. Cold calling should be stopped, especially from people offering services that rarely deliver unless they’re ripping you off. Phones could be used to advertise properly, pay for services, and still provide real value - but instead, it’s all vultures making money off the vulnerable. It’s sickening. - caller: 08009540184

I told them everything was set up with a proper solicitor, and there’s no way I asked for any changes. Then they suggested I must have done some survey where I gave my details. Basically, they’re just scooping info from surveys or other places and then cold calling people. I’m signed up with the TPS, but it’s pointless - this call and loads of others prove that. It’s all dodgy and probably illegal, but nothing ever happens. The number was 0800954084.

This number rang earlier today, but my wife didn’t even get to answer before the call ended. Weirdly, we're both signed up with the TPS! - caller was 08009540184.

I can’t believe they actually called me! I’m on the TPS list too, just like loads of others have said here about how annoying and pushy they are. They keep ringing about wills or something... they really should be fined for that! The number was 08009540184.

I’m absolutely baffled by the brazenly rude cold call I just received. It’s as if common courtesy has gone out the window! What a nuisance!
