    BT Unpaid Bill Phone Scam

    Do they just put you on mute? You put the phone down and pick up to ring and there's no tone. You put the phone down - they hang up and ring you back.

    Music Licence

    A few years ago, before I closed the business, I had the bullyboy phone calls from the PRS. After one call I did a credit check on them and their accounts show a HUGE amount of monies collected.
