Calls kept coming around 8 pm, often posing as market researchers, can feel intrusive and risky. First, let the call go to voicemail and verify any claims in writing before sharing personal details. If the caller insists on a survey, ask for the company's full name, registration number and a callback number; genuine research firms will provide this without pressure. Block the number on your handset and add it to the TPS if it persists. Report repeat harassment to the ICO, especially when the caller cannot prove a legitimate purpose. Never give bank or credit‑card details over an unsolicited call, and consider a call‑filtering app for added protection.
