I have a 100% perfect way of getting rid of these people. Just say that you
work for one of their competitors. Works every time.

"Is it lawful for a power company use the
Electoral Roll for door-to-door sales? And one that's out-of-date-by a
considerable margin"
It's probably better to rephrase the question the other way around - "Is
it unlawful...?" The answer is likely to be No!
More scary though is that recently I had a similar caller from a power
company trying to get me to buy my electricity from them rather than my
present supplier - and she appeared to have details of how much
electricity we used in the last quarter! Not personal data though is it!
rgds,
Kevin
