I live around that area but have been staying at my parents house since being unfaithful...i missed this call and did 1471, imagine how i felt, scared witless it was an angry friend or family member who had looked up my parents!! Quite relieved it seems to be a marketing scam or charity call centre (i know people who have worked at that one on north road but cant recall the name)

This company is a telemarketing company used by several charities.  So I spoke to the Donkey Sanctuary to confirm this, which they did. I asked them to get my telephone number removed and I haven't had a peep for two weeks now.  Sorted!!

I support charities. I don't have much money to give but I try to make the most of my donations by following the route of gift-aid in order that the Govt. chips in as well.  

I DO NOT want my donations to be diluted by these cold calling agencies.

Please help us to BAN THESE middle people (middle-men) who rake off more than I earn in a year and sekk to profit from my philanthropy!

Good to read previous info. I m a Rabbit charity without the big bucks of the RSPCA so I ll ask THEM for money if they persist!

Sorry you're wrong. Speaking as an ex employee of PTF. Never got any commission.

Just had a call from this number - stated they were from the Cats Protection League; I'm guessing it's an agency working for a number of charities and sources a list of targets from other charities.

This number rang me yesterday ( 6.15pm 27/11/2014). Chap said he was called TOM and that he was from the Cats Protection League. He had details of my name, phone number, email and my Cats Protection Gift Aid reference number. Said they were setting up Direct Debit arrangements for helping kittens in my local area (Dorset). He did say that they were not a marketing company and that ALL money collected went to help the kittens. Was this a lie ?????

re my message of 28 Nov 2014 - I have now spoken to the Cats Protection Head Office. They have confirmed that this company IS working for the Cats Protection Charity. This company make a one off small charge to Cats Protection for the telephone call and then ALL money collected from Direct Debits go to the Cats Protection League. This is nice to know and I hope this helps others - especially the stray cats who need our help..

This number has called me 4 times in 2 days but I do not answer the phone if I do not recognise the number as it is usually someone selling or wanting donations. I have registered for TPS but that doesn't stop them. They always have a reason why they have my number.

This number is ringing at different times and sometimes within 5 minutes.  I don't answer but have the answering machine on, so they ring off.  Why don't they take the hint and not ring me?  I give to charity, but to whom I want to give and as much or as little as I want to give.

Called  did not leave a message  not answered  not recognised

This number is a damned nascence, they keep calling me. I'm disabled and am unable to get to the phone easily, please stop these pests from calling.

you are all idiots the reason your not getting any answer is because they run an 8 ring policy so that they can get to more people if you are stupid enough to give your number out which you all are otherwise there is no where or way they could have got your number anywhere else because they have not the means or brains to do so so wake up peeps be more savy with your number even facebook is now a source for trawling info so smell the coffee you idiots and answer the phone give more money and they wont ring you back simples

wake up you idiot these people make 4 pound for every pound that gets spent on them i doubt you could make 50p for every hundred spent on you

Yet another call from this number, phone cuts out when answer phone cuts in no message .

Another call from this number hung up when answer phone cut in no message

Another call cut off when answer phone cut in

Another call from this number which cuts off as answer phone  cuts in .Pests !

I wanted to try and allay some fears and also give people the information they need to not receive calls from us. We do understand that some people do not like being called at home but typically 95% of supporters are happy to receive calls. Apologies to anyone who has been disturbed or concerned by one of our calls.

If you prefer not to be called by the charities you support please answer our call and let the fundraiser know and they will be more than happy to end the call immediately. If you do not want to be called again they are trained to make a note of this on your record which means you will not be disturbed by that organisation again by phone. We understand this not the usual approach taken by many organisations, but can I assure you that it is as much in our interest as yours to make sure that those people who do not like receiving calls are taken of the calling list (as you’ll only get annoyed with us next time we call and we realise that in the long term it will be the charity that suffers from the loss of much needed voluntary support).

We take great pride in what we do and the high quality of our calls, we are not a “telesales” operation and have worked in the not for profit sector for over 20 years. We do not pay any commission to our staff, so they are not personally motivated to engage you by phone if you are not happy to speak to them.

I can be reached on 01273 698697 or by email - deniseb@ptf.org - if you have any concerns you wish to bring to my attention.

Director of Operations, PTF

Note the weasel words in the previous post.    For example,   "you will not be disturbed by that organisation again by phone".    Would it be fair to say then that your number remains in the system and you will be called on behalf of other organisations, according to that?

It seems unfortunate that the 5% of people who do not like your calls have decided to congregate here.   All 24 pages?
