Sounds more like a company that deal in property then insurance, as long as you got your card cancelled thats the main thing, i never give my card details out over the phone unless it is a company that i deal with on a regular basis, a close run thing by the sounds of it Pete.

I'm not trying to flatter him, I'm just being honest. I just hope this doesn't get any worse.

and I replied on the vsc site as follows

I had a call to my mobile supposedly from my airtime provider asking if I wanted an upgrade, was a bit suspicious as I'd only had the contract 6 months, when the conversation went to lines of "can you confirm your postcode dob" etc I turned round and said "if your my airtime provider you know these details"

reply, we do but were asking you to confirm them,

My reply, No your not your asking me to tell you,

reply, no were not were asking you to confirm them.

my reply, well you tell me and I'll confirm them,

eventual reply, so you don't want an upgrade then,

No bugger off

anyway rang my airtime provider guess what not due an upgrade for 6 month (as I thought) no they most definetly had not rung me
