Make all cold caller telemarketing calls /automated calls illegal in the UK
Almost all British Citizens have mobile phones near us at all times, and increasingly less control over who has our phone number.
Companies call without prior permission, at any time of day or night, in order to sell us unwanted products or services.
An example - Not at fault accident claim
We wish the UK government to pass a law to stop these unwanted calls by making it illegal for companies or businesses to call any numbers that have not given them permission to do so and to fine the companies or businesses an amount that will be a high deterant to them breaking this law again.
We wish the UK government to pass a law to stop these unwanted calls by making it illegal for companies or businesses to cold call any UK residential or mobile phone numbers without prior consent.
