Letters: D Woolven

Is it me or has there been an increase in time wasting phone calls. I signed up to a scheme run by BT saying that they would cut out these nuisance calls but they seem to be getting worse. If it's a recorded message, I put the phone straight down.If it's someone talking in some language I cannot understand, I politely thank them & tell them that whatever they are selling, I don't want it. I have a friend who uses two Anglo Saxon words.
