My wife and I frequently buy from a well known TV buying.

We have used this channel for about 8 years.Call operators are sometimes telephoning me for credit card details and have I a second car and have I a mobile phone and can they contact my bank etc These calls get short shrift as they have my details. However they phone incessantly. I never get the same caller twice or the same nationality.These calls can persist until after midnight. Are they allowed to do this??

David you put this up before,,,,,,

do shopping channels sell cars??

if youve entered into a contract to buy and they need to verify your details then they are likely to call you,,,,,,,,these shopping channels allow you to choose a personal number to put in after you confirm to buy,this then releases your cash,,,,,,,,if havnt put in your 4 numbers code then they will call to verify you did buy the goods.and your card isnt trying to be used for fraud ....these shoping channels have websites and a contact number where you can get intouch with them,,,,,,,if you are not happy with the service then call them and complain,,,,,,,as I belive I advised before.......

Oh you are wrong,,they can not contact your bank ,they have no authority to do so.
