My T mobile contract expires in another month or so and I have now had
2 cold calling calls offering me new contracts.
How do these get the data?? and does the Data Protection Act have
something to do with all this?? - ie protect my data??

Not sure, but itd be interesting to find out - ask who their
nominated Data Controller is !

Other than that, tell them their information is wrong - youre on PAYG
and youve just been made redundant - theyll hang up quicker than you
can !

As they emanate from a supplier with whom you have a contract,
I would suggest these calls are somewhere between tepid and
lukewarm ;-)

Due to data protection they dont actually tell you who they got their
data from in the first place.
