Female asked to speak to my husband as the BT account holder. She phoned on my mobile rather than landline. Rarely use my landline & don't usually give out my number. Passed it to my husband who said we'd leave it as we didn't know that she was from BT. She insisted she was but we cut her off anyway.

Cold call supposedly from BT offering to look at our Broadband package to see if they can offer something better.
