Comments:

These types of calls are used in misleading and damaging ways within the UK. The calls cause undue stress to people not familiar with automated messages and offer no methods of responding to the message. If companies really need to contact a person it should be through written methods to allow time to understand the information and include methods for further information to be attained.
