Carphone warehouse contacted me about upgrade

[Charlieboyoo]

Yesterday I received a call from a Belfast number yesterday and they said they are calling on behalf of carphone warehouse.Then they said you are eligible for an upgrade.i asked how did they get my details cause I always deal with o2 direct and they couldn't answer me.Then they tried to offer me a phone.i said I can get it cheaper elsewhere and they said sure you can return it within 14 days!i said I'm nit interested.wouldnt get the hint.Who handed my details out?I never agreed for details to be passed to a third party.

Yeah I'm glad I checked mine first thing and brought this latest fiasco to the fore.......

The problem is that our numbers are out there now, it can't be undone and no apology can suffice.

3 to 5 spam calls a day are testament to that.

Hi guys,

I'll get an update as soon as I can on this.

Strange I received a notification saying that a reply has been accepted as a solution.I thought we where waiting on an update from Toby?

o2 are denying they did anything wrong and trying to cover it up - they are hoping we will go away if we are ignored long enough.
