A lady with a very strong Indian accent called me (completely unsolicited) about maintenance cover for my boiler. She very kindly offered me a contract which covered toilets and drains too. All I had to do was tell her the make of the boiler and its age. Let's play along with this game. Oh, and the little matter of bank details. END OF CALL! What did freak me out slightly was that she had my name and address. Obviously this number has slipped through the Telephone Preference Service net.
