Been getting calls from this number and 080000927201. Not bothering to answer but considering asking for the name and address and lots of personal details from the caller and saying that if I hear from them again I will use the Harrassment Act against them personally.
Protection from Harassment Act 1997 makes it a criminal offence to pursue a course of conduct, which amounts to harassment of a person. This Act also creates a civil statutory tort of harassment, which enables a person to obtain a civil court injunction to stop harassment occurring and to claim damages where appropriate. This is a very important piece of legislation which can potentially provide protection in neighbourhood disputes, cases of racial harassment, bullying at work, confrontation with the media or stalking, as well as hate mail and persistent unwanted telephone calls.
Harassment is not defined in the Protection from Harassment Act and so it will be a matter for assessment based on each case. It has been established that publication of a series of newspaper articles by a newspaper can constitute a course of conduct amounting to harassment. However, there must be a course of conduct in order to bring a claim. This means that there must be at least two incidents representing harassment - i.e. more than one telephone call - and the person who is carrying out the harassment must know or ought to know that it would amount to harassment. Although that is to be assessed objectively so that persons with psychiatric illnesses will not be excluded from the effect of the Act merely because they did not think that their behaviour would amount to harassment.
I don't hold out much hope though :-(
