After repeated "silent calls" leaving which al left the same message "Call MDR Urgently on 0161 etc" I rang them. Spoke to "Charlotte" Did not give any personal details. Informed THEM that i was recording the call, reminded them of the Harassment Act and asked them to remove my number from their database. They have and i should now get no more calls.
