SPAM and Telemarketing ⬇️⛔️

I’m fucking frustrated with some shameless companies, despite DND, emails and requests these scammers don’t leave a chance to irritate.

I’m filing an appeal with regulators, name the company and do share your experience. I promise to take it ahead.

I’m starting with PolicyBazaar, Dhani, Rupeek and Bajaj Finserv.

Was doing a product research so had to sign up for feasibility and to review their offerings.

Now they don’t miss a chance to spam me, every day I receive shitty phone calls from their agents!

@Truecaller said 98.5% of all spam calls in India came from domestic numbers obvious due to lockdown and this makes difficult for authorities to identify between commercial and personal usage.

And I’m not surprised, ⬇️

I don’t care about the target of your sales team and monthly ARR, all I want my privacy to be respected and protected.

Adopt new marketing channels e.g. - Social Media, WhatsApp etc but you can't bombard me with your calls/SMS, especially when the user has declined.

Even if it takes years, I’m after this telemarketing industry and some shitty companies who have overridden regulatory and laws.

BFSI is one the golden mine for them, I wouldn’t stay quiet.

Multiple developments are happening with TRAI, Consumer Forum, IRDAI, RBI and MoT.
