Caller said his name was David and tried to sell windows and doors, very persistent

Automated voice called David asked if I could hear him then started a sales pitch about windows and doors

Obnoxious seller apparently called 'David' that talks over you and tries to get you to respond by asking if you can hear them. Trying to 'sell' windows in the local area.... scum

Said he was representing a door and window company opening a new branch in our area!!! Tried to get me to say "yes" (which I never do) by asking first of all "can you hear me?" Then he asked how we all were!!! I then, finally, spoke to say that we did not accept cold calls and hung up. We are supposed to have telephone preference and our number is ex-directory but he still got through on the house phone.

Called at 1pm, 20.3.26 - started going on about us being on a Registry and talked about loft insulation. Caller muted me whilst he was talking, I asked where he got my number from as we're with TPS, and he just maintained our number is on a register that they can call about govt schemes. I hung up & blocked number.

This is a company who sells loft insulation. They tell you that your current insulation is most likely causing mold or damp and offer a “free” servay which you know will lead to a pushy sales man. I have had repeated calls from this company despite being registered with TPS.
