  • Cold-calling company fined £225,000

    News release: 18 June 2013


    The Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) has today issued two monetary penalties totalling £225,000 to two companies at the centre of the BBC Three programme ‘The Call Centre’. The penalties include the first penalty issued against a company linked to nuisance calls relating to Payment Protection Insurance (PPI).
    Nationwide Energy Services has received a penalty of £125,000, and We Claim You Gain £100,000 - both companies are part of Save Britain Money Ltd based in Swansea. The penalties were issued after the companies were found to be responsible for over 2,700 complaints to the Telephone Preference Service (TPS) or reports to the ICO using its online survey, between 26 May 2011 and end of December 2012.
