Well today I got a phone call from 020 3148 6449 by a lady from didn't-catch-the-name-but-it-had-"Pension"-in-it who said that I'd recently transferred a pension with advice from the Better Retirement Group and I'd have "lost money" as a result. A bit taken aback at the call, I just said I was happy with the advice and she quickly said ok they'd note that, and hung up.
The whole thing was very quick and took me by surprise and I wish now I'd interrogated her on who she was, what they were actually after, and how they got my numbers*.
So, I'm posting about it here (a) to ask if anyone else has received a similar call and (b) to give the "heads up" to other BRG transferees that they might get such a call, so that they can be a bit more prepared than I was.
* They first called my landline, but if I don't recognise the number I usually let it get to the answering machine picking up, although in this case it didn't get that far with them hanging up before that but then immediately calling my mobile, and as I don't think any marketeers have both of my numbers, only "pukka" companies I've dealt with, I answered that.
BTW. Yes, I know BRG got sanctioned by the FCA for their no-transfer-no-fee approach, but I don't want this thread to get into any of that, or anything about BRG, but just about the phone calls, as per (a) & (b) above, please.
