Regulate Telephone Preference Service (TPS)

Additional Information

I would like TPS to be regularted in order that companies who make unwanted sales calls can be prosecuted and fined

TPS has no powers to prevent companies from making unwanted sales calls. It is responsibility of ICO to enforce the law

ICO has the power to fine companies up to £500,000 but this rarely happens as companies use legal loopholes to claim they are making legitimate calls

Despite registering with TPS, people are still harrassed by sales calls without action being taken

Whether its double glazing, PPI or energy grants - companies flout the law knowing they have little chance of being prosecuted

Such calls are a misery to those who receive them with some companies phoning the same number many times per day

TPS is a toothless organisation which needs sweeping new powers and reform to reduce the number of unwanted calls and prosecute persistent offenders

We need new laws for TPS, ICO and OFCOM to tackle the problem
