Wow, just discovered from LinkedIn that the MD of this company won the Wales Call Centre Manager of the Year Award.
Wonder if the people who made the award know that the business has absolutely no worries about disregarding the TPS.
Come on OCI - get your finger out enough of us have complained!!John replied 2015-10-07 15:15:56Interesting! Has anyone reported them to Linkedln?MarkF replied 2015-11-04 08:55:45And he's a lovely guy!!!

Unwanted call, they start message part way through, do not say why they are calling you and if call back can not speak to anyone.
Report them to ICO, if we get enough names action will be taken

to see that the company is going down the tubes other sites indicate that their new address at Princess House Swansea is a real graveyard of failed welsh companies.
Anyone have the contact details of the directors, if so we could all direct any unwanted junk mail in their direction.
Their names are on the link as provided.
Other sites indicate that the Winchesters like their name ride roughshod over every company they get involved inKerry replied 2015-10-08 14:15:43Done, I have reported them too, had 4 automated messages today alone!

Many, many calls despite being on TPS and not having been mis-sold a bank account. Reported to ICO.
A little digging and I believe this is one of the two gents involved although both have 'resigned' as directors:
https://www.linkedin.com/pub/marc-winchester/2b/a09/679JimZ replied 2015-10-07 23:11:43Seems they are serial offenders with many, many directorships of dodgy companies doing similar things. LinkedIn page for Marc seems "made up" given the history I've just dug up on them. Lots of scams and business flipping.
Marc and Wanda Winchester seem to be married. She has a facebook page so that was the easiest route to find them...
here's their current address AFAIK:

Ignored TPS - so illegal call. Another parasitic company.
Chris replied 2015-10-02 12:07:11Apparently any call with an automated message is illegal without your consent whether registered to TPS or not.Honest worker replied 2016-01-12 15:07:21What a disgusting troll comment. These people are just doing their job like you do your job. There was never any obligation to purchase, although PPI is extremely important. They are doing a good duty. You have no idea.TomBoy replied 2016-01-13 16:19:18Honest worker - was your comment before they laid you all off without pay! -
Call seems to start part way through a tape
If you have already claimed or do not wish to be contacted in Future press 9 For further info send letter to floor 4 Princess house Swansea SA1 3LW.
So they have successfuly not told you what the call is about, they have withheld the companies name and they expect you to write to them if wish to vent your anger at a real personlyyn m replied 2015-10-02 12:59:14same here today,glad I googled cos I have cancelled something,and thought this was something to do with it.LisaNeath replied 2015-10-08 15:31:33Apparently several of the staff at the swansea branch have been arrested and their office shut down,,Yippie -
Some great news people: Ben Winchester has been banned from being a director for 6 years,
https://www.gov.uk/government/news/director-of-swansea-nuisance-call-firm-gets-six-year-ban
His latest efforts with QuickStart recruitment have faltered as it has now been the subject of a compulsory order. Yeay, victory at last. I might just give him a call to wish him well -
Finally got a verdict in the Ben Winchester case - 6 year director ban. Not really enough https://www.gov.uk/government/news/director-of-swansea-nuisance-call-firm-gets-six-year-ban

12th Jan 2016: " ... has had its licence suspended". Is that all? Still, one small step for man ... I hope Falcon and Pointer and their ilk get fined to oblivion or end up in a cell with a perpetually ringing telephone.
-
Rang three times, even though TPS on phone line. Now blocked number. How do they keep getting away with this
-
As others have mentioned, auto-message start part-way through, telling you to press 9 to be removed. The voice is so unclear that I thought it was 'thousand and pointer.com', but someone here wrote 'Falcon and Pointer', so there we go. No mention by the company what they do/why. I get so many calls from various numbers, and have emailed my MP who I doubt will bother raising in Parliament. Feel free to email your MP.
-
Annoying that this number calls what seems to be as often as - every day.
-
On answering phone, caller launches into a pre-recorded talk. Doesn't respond to "Hello, who's calling?". very rude. Had this twice this week. Replaced receiver both times.1471 told me it was 01600469009
-
Have called me everyday for a week at the same time of day. I don't answer thanks to the comments on this page.

-
Phoned 3 times already, wish i could block this number
-
Constant calls by a computer system I'm with tips but they don't care keeps calling day and night
-
several calls upto 20:00 at night,
Millions of years of human evolution and we end up with Wesh Idiots who can not manage to leave a complete message that starts at the right place,
suggest use all prepaid responce envolopes and request for information cards to get a load of junk delivered to these idiots -
usual bank/PPI rubbish. They keep calling, recorded message - reported to ICO
-
Pain constant ringing i pressed 5 when answered told the guy i had pressed 5 the wind up a parasite button he rang off

Telemarketer ignoring TPS
-
18:23 Today. A real Telepest. Also called 12:32 yesterday. Clear recorded Welsh accent talking about a dreamed up "bank claim". I'm with TPS. How can these people get away with working like this?
-
We have had several calls from this number over the last couple of weeks. we are on the TPS so have reported the company to them, have also reported the company to the CMR who are regulators for claims companies. I have also sent emails to the company themselves, but so far have had no reply.
-
Recorded message about PPI. I wonder how amused the MD of this scumbag outfit would be if I rang his home every day trying to sell him my goods? I expect he'd soon be crying foul.
-
Reported them to ICO after second call today. Why can't something be done to stop them? Maybe we should all go to their office and sort it out ourselves?
russg123 replied 2015-10-29 16:04:44love to see that!! -
Total pain in the neck. Have recently had a number of calls from them even when on TPS. Report them to Action Fraud please if they call you
http://www.actionfraud.police.uk/ -
The third recorded call from Falcom & Pointer today and dozens over the past few weeks. I am fed up with them wasting my time.
-
Automated call about 'mis-sold packaged bank accounts'. Option at the end of the call to press 9 to have your number removed; however, I did that last week and have received the same call twice since then.
TPS don't deal with automated calls; to report this number, go to the ICO website: https://ico.org.uk/concerns/marketing/report-automated-calls/
Falcon & Pointer claim to be registered with the ICO and with the Government's Claims Management Regulator.MMG replied 2015-10-07 17:46:19I too have reported them to ICO on several occasions. They advised me not to press 9 as this would just confirm to Falcon & Pointer that my number exists and encourage them to continue! The more complaints the ICO receive, the more ammunition they will have to prosecute these rogues. -
5uckers all me every day. TPS totally ignored. About time ICO and BT pulled their fingers out of their [email protected] and shut this [email protected] down
-
Its this Falcon and Pointer lot again hiding behind a call centre in USA. 3rd call in a week. TPS useless have reported the calls with full details to ICO and TPS. Got another for them now. Can someone in Swansea go and tell them there's a big fine coming.
-
Getting called repeatedly by this number, as soon as my answer machine cuts in they clear (i'm in the TPO but as usual that makes no difference to these scammers/spammers) Why is the ICO so useless with these people)
-
These muppets have obviously completely ignore TPS and call anyone they want and no one at ICO seems to pay any attention.
-
This company keeps calling - & leaving recorded messages. I am delisted for phone calls but this company is not interested & does not care. How do they expect anyone to do business with them if they act like this. They deserve to go out of business - the sooner the better.
-
some recorded message about banking.Have had calls previous week with exactly same message from a different number,but obviously same annoying firm.tried to ring the numbers back,but get number unobtainable tone.How do they call me from a number that doesn't exist?.Fed up.
-
nuisance caller keeps trying despite being registered with TPS
-
-
Yet another call from this number. Pity I'm not living nearby, as I'd pay them a visit. BT knows exactly who all these callers are, but prefers to make money out of them, rather than do anything about it.
-
Fed up of calls
-
Two recorded message calls in an hour re: bank charges. Reported to TPS
-
Two calls (both recorded messages) in just over an hour from this bunch and I have reported them to the TPS - I suggest you do too.
-
Phone rang. Picked up. Recorded announcement. So hung up. My number is XD & signed up to TPS. I get very few unsolicited calls, so don't know how this one got through. Will be reporting them.
-
Was called today at 15:01 by someone stating they were Falcon & Pointer. My number is unlisted plus I signed up for TPS years ago.
I am sick to death of these illegal calls.
