Are you plagued by nuisance phone calls?
It could be the end of the line for cold callers … ministers are planning a change in the law to fine firms who bombard millions of Britons with unsolicited phone calls with fines of up to £500,000.
The move follows tens of thousands of complaints about cold calling.
The government says the number of complaints has risen in the past decade and the issue is particularly acute for the elderly and housebound as such calls can cause distress and anxiety.
Are you plagued by nuisance calls on your home phone or mobile? Do you dread picking up the phone? How do you respond to unsolicited calls?
