On a daily basis i get so many missed calls from numbers like these, leaving the call to ringout and then check the number. Its got to the point is annoying me and my partner, as there is no need to be contacting everyday at silly times especially when we are at work.

I tweeted Scottish Power and they were responsive and helpful, in so far as they have confirmed my number will be removed from their list (it might take five days, but that's okay by me).

Scottish Power continually ring 3-4 times a day. Often there is no one on the other line and I hear a replayed message from them. If I call the number back to try to speak to someone the same thing happens. I have tried telling them to stop their messages but they have persisted. The number is a premium number so ringing them back is actually very expensive.

I kept rejecting this number based on what this thread said. Turned out it was EE calling me back after I reported a fault! Definitely feel stupid now after ignoring it for a week.

Sick of these idiots calling me. End up answering and some bloke almost thought we were long lost friends by the way he was talking to me. Didn't like it when I told him I wasn't interested in him saving me money and hung up on me. Surely something can be done about these people???

Fed up with these nuisance calls so I got this attack alarm from work. Aerosol thing that makes a massive screech. Let that go off in the mouth piece and you won't get a call back!

Caller: Scottish Electric I think. Didn't pay much attention as was looking for my screechy alarm.

A harrassed indiviual 21 Jan 2015

This is Scottish Power. They've got my number from somewhere and despite me repeatedly telling them that I don't want their services, I'm not interested at the moment, I'm tied into a fixed term 24 month contract with early cancellation penalties and that they're just more expensive than my current supplier anyway, they won't take no for an answer and currently phone me around 4 or 5 times a day. Obviously they never went to any sales and marketing stratgey courses, because this is a sure fire way to piss people off and ensure they never use you as a supplier.
