Number being distributed without consent and has only ever been linked to the person they are looking for when a life threatening operation needed to be done.

I have been receiving calls from marketing companies looking for my sister, seems like a minor complaint right? No.

My number has only ever been linked to my sister when I had to fill in a emergency operation form to ensure she didn't die. Now I am one out of how many people who have had to sign a form for loved ones close to death, mine was fortunate enough to survive however imagine how many numbers are distributed of wives, husbands, children and siblings who did not consent to having their number distributed let alone being called for someone who may not be in a situation to deal with sh*tty marketing pitches. The cherry on the pie is these companies ask for my sisters number when no consent was given to distribute my number in the first place. If I don't want you calling me why would I give you her number? They'd love to harass a women who can barely talk.

Now unfortunately the hospital cannot account for it because of the amount of forms filled and the unknown staff that may have sold these number to you. If your company is going to give numbers out the least can be done to verify and gain permission to distribute. This is a disgusting practice and I feel for people being contacted in a similar situation to mine.

My number was obtained by your company and distributed without consent, and I am saying right now "I do not consent to having marketing companies call me". I would like it removed from any and all lists. This peves me off because I know it is a lost cause.
