Show Notes
TMAC Limited fined £100,000 for making over 260,000 unwanted sales calls to TPS registrants, targeting vulnerable individuals. The company, which sells personal alarm pendants and security systems, ignored rules designed to stop nuisance marketing. Callers pretended to represent local crime or fire prevention groups but hid their real identities from TMAC. The ICO enforced the penalty under data protection laws and electronic communications rules, ensuring companies face real consequences for breaking these safeguards.
