[Resolved]  Just Dial Service — No privacy

I use Just Dial services frequently on their 28888888 number.
I called them to inquire for a distributor of Tata Sky Services and as usual they sent me a message on my mobile phone with the numbers of distributors.
Imagine my surprise when a minute later when one of the distributors calls me on my cell.
While this may be good from a service perspective, I am apalled at the complete disregard for consumer privacy. I did not authorise Just Dial to share my numbers with anyone. I have not signed anything to this extent nor have they ever mentioned this in any of their communication - verbal or via SMS. The thought that my personal cell no is lying in the hands of completely randomn strangers is downright scary.
I would like an explanation as well as a written assurance that my number has been withdrawn from every single database they have sold and will not be in any that they might sell going forward.

I agree.

DNC should be applicable.
I agree.

I used to call Just Dial Delhi[protected] frequently, never mind the call I received immediately from companies for services I was looking for, but one day I received a pestering call for Insurance out of the blue. My mobile is registered with DND services so I was surprised, upon insisting the sales man blurted she had received my number from JUST DIAL, which is illegal.

So, please be careful before you call Just Dial and give your numbers, your personal details will be sold to the highest bidder.
