Despite being registered at TPS I have just received a telephone call from a computer generated voice advising me I had won the above. I did a 1471 and it returned "we do not have the callers number to return the call".
Anyone else had this recently ?

I think that the TPS is only functional if the companies actually register to the TPS and I dont think it's mandatory is it?
TPS only works on companies that:
A: Take note of it.
B: Operate in this country.
Calls coming in from abroad are not covered and companies that ignore the regulation obviously pay no attention to the TPS either.
Isn't that the message you get if the call came from abroad?

Some of these people use random dialers which of course don't take the TPS into account. :(
great news fireman :)
If it is a holiday for 2, I'll happily volunteer to come along.
Since a computer called you, does that mean it's a virtual holiday? Maybe they plan to send you a 3D Java applet and tell you to enjoy the views...

Thanks for all your replies, I will just ignore it. The Bahamas were getting like Torremolinos anyway.
