my mil is away for a few weeks so iam looking after nan. she is 86 and lives on her own. although she can still look after herself she is a bit batty.
i went to her house yesterday and found a letter by the phone. it was one of those " you have won £20k please call this number" letters. the number ( shock horror) was a 1.50 per min phone line. it infuriates me that these con artist are aloowed to opperate. she has obviously called the number as the letter was by the phone.

you can get BT to bar 090 type numbers on a line -call BT whilst shes there and get her to give authority for you to speak re her account.

thought that there is something i could do. to be honest it would take forever to get her to chat to them. she is mad as a brush really. will get mil to do it when she gets back. she has power of attourny so will do it on her behalf.
