Sunday morning, minding my own business at home, the phone rings
Only my Mum knows my knew number, so answered hello Mum... only it wasn't her ! 
Flipping Market Research company - do i have 15 minutes to go through some questions. First reply is yep my rate is £100 per hour or part there of.
Oh no we don't pay you !
Then why are you disturbing me on my TPS registered line!!??
TPS does not apply to market research (which to be fair i already knew) but it really does annoy me that they can call you within this loophole, knowing damn well that they will either sell your details or try and sneak a sales message in at the end.
Anyone know why TPS does not apply to Market Research and is there anyway of converting my TPS registration to cover Market Research suppression?

Market research calls are often from third parties asked to contact you by banks, utility providers, etc. My recent experience with Creative Lifestyle showed me the importance of ticking that box declining contact from third parties. Npower had given my details to this company who just wouldn't take no for an answer. Changed Npower online account settings and blocked number did the trick. One I've yet to master is the insurance companies. I use comparison sites and am often asked to include a contact number. I don't, tick the box declining further contact and still get calls. Two of the offenders are Saga and AA. JuliaP
