I got a similar call and they said they spoke to me earlier in the year
and i agreed to do an ad. I fell soft but got them to reduce the cost
to £100 but have been kicking myself ever since because I'm sure I never
agreed to it, i would have remembered.

This company is mph direct and are genuine but I'm sure it's a new
tactic to get money out of you - I won't do it again.
