Local kebab takeaway advertising using my landline number.

PostIng for traffic and fed up!

We have had our landline 3 years and increasingly keep getting calls for a kebab shop the other end of the city. Evenings and weekends we get so many calls.

The most annoying thing is quite a few that call don't believe me when I tell them it's the wrong number! These are usually drunk people swearing or pushy sales people during the day Angry

I've emailed all the companies that list my landline as the kebab shop, but they are just ignoring my emails.

My DH has called the kebab shop and they haven't done anything about it either.

What can I do? Is their anyone I can contact who can force them all to remove our number?

Not sure how this has come about in the first place as the kebab places actual number is nothing similar to ours.

Please help! I'm going mad!

Sorry to be boring but they are misusing your personal information so pretty sure this falls under the data protection act. Write to them mentioning that (and potential legal consequences?) and if they don't take appropriate action then complain to ICO.
