what happened to the villa...up the Blues

Extremely persistent! Have been contacted every weekday for the last week! I've got call ID n just ignore it!

I agree that they're persistent - this number belongs to Appliance Online and they have called me daily for the last three weeks! I bought a washing machine from them 12 months ago. I assume they're calling to offer me some kind of extended warranty?

Appliances Online. These fuc*ers won't stop calling.

I'm doing my part by leaving 1 star reviews everywhere and making sure everyone I know won't deal with them.

Trying to sell extended warranty for my dishwasher.
Do not buy products from these people they don't stop calling!

It's Appliances Online, I had a missed call from them every day (sometimes twice a day) for about 3 weeks. I bought something from them a year ago and it turned out they were trying to sell me extended warranty. I emailed them to complain about the amount of calls and told them to remove my details otherwise I would contact the TPS, I received an email apologising and confirmed they would remove my details and so far its all quiet.

Such a pain.  Really puts you off from dealing with that company again.  It was a while ago since I've dealt with them.

Persistent calls, that don't leave a message. I just answer and leave the phone on the side, at let them waste money on the call. Won't be shopping the above company, again as they won't leave you alone once they get your number.

I've bookmarked the ICO complaint form and report each and every call now via the form on www.ico.gov.uk : https://www.snapsurveys.com/swh/surveylogin.asp?k=134674895144

Here's the latest fine for a dodgy company caught with its trousers down and breaking the law:

http://www.ico.gov.uk/news/latest_news/2013.aspx

News release: 20 March 2013

The Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) has served a monetary penalty of £90,000 to a company that has blighted the public with thousands of unwanted marketing calls.

DM Design, based in Glasgow, has been the subject of nearly 2,000 complaints to the ICO and the Telephone Preference Service (TPS). The company consistently failed to check whether individuals had opted out of receiving marketing calls – in clear breach of the law - and responded to just a handful of the complaints received.

In one instance an employee refused to remove a complainant’s details from the company’s system and instead threatened to “continue to call at more inconvenient times like Sunday lunchtime”.

The monetary penalty is the first the ICO has issued for a serious breach of the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) relating to live marketing calls. This latest penalty comes after the joint owners of a company, which was responsible for sending hundreds of thousands of spam texts, received penalties totalling £440,000 in November last year.

The ICO has informed two more companies that it is intending to impose significant penalties over breaches of the law, with a final decision likely in the coming weeks. A further ten companies are subject to ongoing investigation for cold-calling and sending spam text messages.

Information Commissioner, Christopher Graham, said:

“Today’s action sends out a clear message to the marketing industry that this menace will not be tolerated. This company showed a clear disregard for the law and a lamentable attitude toward the people whose day they were disturbing. This is not good enough.

“This fine will not be an isolated penalty. We know other companies are showing a similar disregard for the law and we’ve every intention of taking further enforcement action against companies that continue to bombard people with unlawful marketing texts and calls.

“All of this work has been made possible thanks to the information we are receiving from the public, which has assisted our investigation team in identifying the companies making these calls.”

View a copy of the DM Design monetary penalty notice

The ICO and OFCOM, who are responsible for regulating silent calls, work closely together and will be publishing an open letter to the marketing industry reminding companies that they must comply with the legal and regulatory measures in place. Failure to do so will lead to enforcement action, with the ICO able to issue penalties of up to £500,000 for serious breaches of the PECR, and OFCOM having the power to issue penalties of up to £2,000,000 over breaches of rules linked to abandoned and silent calls.

The ICO has setup a online reporting tool which people can use to send us the details of any unwanted marketing texts and calls. View the reporting tool, which has already received nearly 140,000 responses since it was setup in March last year.
