Phone number 01233648537, +441233648537

14th. August 2018 - I just got a call from this number, I didn't answer as I am not in the UK and I never get calls from +44~. I'm delighted to have read the comments below. It means I won't give in to the call back temptation & waste my hard earned money on some nonsense call. I am also glad to be able to add a more up-to-date comment, informing all this crowd are still in business and can be comfortably ignored. Andy, Ireland, EU

Ok then, you receive a phone call, they know your name and they want you to engage in a survey. This is nothing more than profile building and the likelihood is that this information will be sold on. Let’s turn the tables and even out the playing field a bit. Here’s a profile on the company associated with the nuisance phone number.

Facts International Ltd is an independent market research agency based in Ashford, Kent. Facts International is part of the Insight and Engagement Division of Chime Communications plc. (Chime is a backing company to entrepreneurs wishing to start their own pioneering business in marketing communications.) History: Facts International sold by Barbara Lee to Chime Communications and private investor Nick Lamb in Feb 2007. Nick Lamb sold his stake in the business to the firm’s parent company Chime Communications for £1.7m in 2011; he currently holds the position of Chairman. The next time you’re pulling your hair out when you receive yet another unsolicited phone call, just remember good old Nick still has a good mop of hair.

They have a 200 seat, in-house telephone research centre based in Kent, they adopt a 24/7 capability policy, often targeting hard to reach audiences.

With regard to TPS, this is what Facts International reports on their web site: Legally, we are allowed to do this. There is no legal requirement to screen research samples against the preferences services (such as the Telephone Preference Service) when conducting market research. In simple terms the law allows them to contact you, so put up with it!

They report that approximately 180,000 people are telephoned monthly to conduct telephone interviews.

And there is so much more if you dig around!

wife got a call from this number asking for me by name saying they were doing a customer satisfaction call from Royal Bank of Scotland. Wouldn't talk to wife only me by name although all accounts are joint.
Wouldn't tell them anything. Phoned the RBOS and confirmed they do not use this company which sounded like nuwood or noon wood.
Probably a scam attempt

Sounds like it was my good fortune that I missed this call then; however, it won't be their good fortune if I decide to take the call and they ask me for my personal banking experiences etc...

I've been a NatWest customer for nearly 50 years. Recently, they kept sending me forms demanding my name and address finally threatening to close my account if I didn't provide the information they'd had for all of those 50 years! Grudgingly I filled in their form with the just my name and address. Then of course, as I'd suspected all along, the nuisance phone calls from these market research clowns - "We're phoning from NatWest's market research department" - started. Three in 2 days. The number's now blocked. Goodbye 01233648537

Phoned asking for me by my name - not available in phonebook. Said they were from survey company for my bank though got the name of my bank wrong even though they knew my name. They rang off when I didn't say anything.
