Those cold callers really annoy me. Usually I just say I really resent people ringing me at home when I haven't given them my number, and could they please pass that onto their superiors. I feel sad that someone has to do this for a job......but call me old fashoined, as far as I'm concerned people shouldn't be phoning my number unless I have given it to them personally.
Yes, I await responses about how careful I should be about who I give my number to.....but I do think you should be able to give your number to your utility provider without constantly getting cold calls; and I also think you should be able to phone them on your insurance contract to tell them that the boiler has broken down, and just be able to sort it, without being put through to the sales dept. And yes, BT and BG are top of the list of offenders.
