- "J" shares her frustrations:
They
are using a new number - 0800 064 1087
Thank
you for your helpful website, their calls are driving
me demented.
The calls were to my orange
phone and orange were no help, said they could do
nothing. (except for the chap dealing with the call
who was shocked himself that Orange could not block
these calls.)
If I called the number back
I got a message saying O2 couldn't connect me, so
I rang O2, who were really helpful, and gave me
the name which fit the number - LBM, and told me
about TPS and gave me their own department to write
to.
Thanks to O2 I Googled LBM, which brought
me to you.
So, praise for O2, thumbs down
to Orange

- "A" is frustrated:
We
have been recieving these phone calls for the week,
today was the worst we have recieved no fewer than
4 phone calls.. We have used the numbers provided
to ask these people to stop sending us phone calls
but to no avail.
It is driving us insane
!!!

- "O" says:
Just wanted
to say thanks for your web pages on LBM. I have
just moved to a new flat with a new number. Barely
1 day after the line was activated I received
my very first call on my new number. I wasn't in
to take it and as I haven't connected the answerphone
yet I've been 1471'ing when I get in. Lo and
behold but 08000 641 699 pops up. A quick google
and I'm at your page. Personally these calls
don't really effect me much more than being an annoyance.
I never call them back on the basis that if
I didn't solicit the initial contact or I don't
know the company, then they'll call back if it's
important.

- "C" is another one:
Using
"FashionWorld catalogue" which they say
my wife asked for, this catalogue has never arrived.
Had
numerous calls in the last week, they refuse to
remove me (the phone is in my name) from there call
list.
Refused to give me there contact number.
In
frustration put 08000 6499555 into web search and
ended up at your webpage.
I would like to
register a complaint against LBM Direct Marketing
Ltd
23/7/07
- "B" comes up with a new lead:
I've
just started being pestered on my mobile number
by LBM, along with another marketing company who,
according to a quick google search on the number,
are called TFC.
This started very soon indeed
after requesting a motor-insurance quote from www.confused.com
- which was the first time I have ever used them.
I have never had such marketing calls to my mobile
before and it seems more than coincidental to me
that not more than a couple of days after putting
my moblie (perhaps foolishly in hindsight) into
thier website, I am recieving marketing calls. I
would guess that this is at the instigation of one
of the companies that they "farm" out
to for a quote, if not actually themselves.
After
finding your site through the magic that is google,
I thought I'd share my suspicions with you in case
others have simmilar experiences, or indeed suspicions.

- "G" is getting hassled by Vodafone,
possibly via LBM:
Silent caller 08080000144
possibly from LBM Direct Marketing,below this is
some of the call information of there calls. I feel
like getting my own back on them for wasting my
time by sending un-stamped envelopes to them and
they would have to pay royal mail`s £1.00 handling
fee plus the cost of the un-stamped envelope per
item. Now to think if everyone sent over 50 of these.Waste
there time. 13.37 06/07/07 12.51 16/07/07
12.17 17/07/07 14.56 20/07/07 19.49
23/07/07 19.51 24/07/07
