"15-20 per day"

I heard TPS is a scam (funded by the telemarketing industry).Truecall seems to be effective, but is expensive.

"Under current rules, the ICO can take enforcement action only if calls cause “substantial damage or distress”. The government is considering how to make early intervention easier, and it is expected that in future the ICO will be able to intervene where calls cause “nuisance, annoyance, inconvenience or anxiety”.- http://www.theguardian.com/money/201...own-complaints
