ANY reply tells them they have a valid phone number and that the person they are texting reads the texts..... so the number will get sold on to more firms. The only thing I do is add the number to my 'block' list so they just bounce.

 

HOWEVER, when I was at my workmate's house a few weeks back, a company called his number regarding getting a refund on all of his PPI payments. I took the call, said I was interested in finding out more as I had been paying PPI on a £7m loan secured against my castle in Scotland, and that my gardener was paying PPI on loans of £1.5m for gardening equipment. I got put through to several very helpful people, and as it was getting juicy my workmate came rushing through, banging stuff about, shouting his head off at me for stealing his guns.... making sounds like a big punch up.... The phone was going "hello, hello, is everything ok?" before finally hanging up. Did a similar things a couple of weeks earlier.... seems they never get the message!
