Anonymous Suspicious Robocall / Automated Message 3 weeks ago

DCB Legal keep robocalling about a parking charge that's being disputed even though they've been told loads of times to take it to court and put everything in writing. One of their staff told me to just block their number if i dont want the calls.

Said they were from DCB Legal, which is supposedly a sister company to the unpopular DCBL, both claiming to be 'separate companies' but they have the same staff, directors, address, etc. I haven't picked up these calls but know it IS DCB Legal ringing me all the time from this number, even after I've asked for written correspondence only.
