I use the telephone preference service to screen out most cold callers but, in the last couple of weeks, I have been bombarded with calls that seem to be of American origin. Always it's a recorded message, in an American accent, telling me that I have won a prize, been selected for a free holiday etc., etc. I never hear the end of the message because I always hang up in disgust.

I haven't found anyone else who lives near me who has had these calls. Are you getting them in Accrington? If so, has anyone got a solution to the nuisance as they are getting through the TPS?
