10. NIo dchoisiceli okf ehodw …contacted.
We have too many
unsolicited phone calls
Abruptness and
impersonal
Basically intrusive and a
cheap way of
advertising.
half the unsubscribe links don`t
actually work
A bit Smarmy
I have not been considered
It was too broad -
when and where and
how often would they
contact me?
11. I disliked… Once you`re on the list never
get off, like hell on a
roundabout
No choice of how contacted.
We have too many
unsolicited phone calls
Carefully selected on what basis?
Carefully to ensure customer interest
or carefully to maximise advertising
reach / revenue for the partners?
I don`t want my
details passed
around for money
cobblers, all it means is they are going to sell
my details
Carefully selected –
you must be joking
