Ban Cold Calling on the Telephone or at the Door
This is a petition to call for a ban on any company calling you on the telephone or arriving on your doorstep when you have not previously chosen to affilate yourself with them in any way. This would serve to assist in preventing vulnerable people from being pressurised into buying things that they do not need or want by unscrupulous companies.
I would still allow companies you do already deal with such as your bank to call you to advise you of new products.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
There's already a petition about this issue. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one about a very similar issue.
You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition.
