Bajaj Finance, HDFC Companies Top Spam Callers List<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A consumer survey by community platform Local Circles reveals that financial services firms Bajaj Finance and HDFC Group entities top the list of pesky callers, with 40% of over 12,000 people polled complaining of maximum unsolicited calls from Bajaj Finance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

HDFC Life Insurance and HDFC Bank took second and third spots at 15% and 12% respectively, followed by Kotak Mahindra Bank for 4% participants. The rampant spam calls highlight ineffective DND registrations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

60% Get Daily Pesky Calls Despite DND<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The survey found 60% respondents continue facing nuisance of 3+ unwanted telemarketing calls every single day on average over the past year, exposing limitations of Do Not Disturb (DND) safeguards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

30% faced 1-2 spam calls daily. Butcember encouragingly, repeat calling instances have marginally declined from 66% in February 2023, indicating some positive impact of TRAI’s stricter regulations against pesky communication by registered entities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But with 90% subscribers still battling spam calls despite DND enrollment, urgent reforms in user consent mechanisms and grievance redressal systems remain imperative, experts emphasized.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
