I have been getting a series of calls from Talktalk whereby I answer the phone and am asked if I am the (named) account holder. On answering yes the chat usually goes along the lines "How are you today" etc then the line "For data protection purposes can I ask you for your name?" This results in me telling them they know who I am and I have just confirmed this to them. What follows is utter confusion and always ends with me terminating the call. If I phoned them I can see the justification for being asked for details but if they phone me I refuse to play their silly game. The service has been fine and I have no outstanding problems. If I did I would soon be onto them so why don't they stop playing silly buggers?
