What constitutes telemarketing calls?
Telemarketing calls are those from a commercial Company, a charity or even a political party promoting their goods and services. A call made by a market researcher is permissible unless part of the call also includes the promotion of a particular product or service. A call to check contact details is also permissible, but telemarketing companies should not try to circumvent TPS registration by using such a call as a lead into telemarketing calls.
