The Economist has been contacting me repeatedly in an attempt to renew a subscription that I cancelled several months ago, and their persistent calls are becoming increasingly annoying.
The Economist subscription calls—how to stop them!

Expert Opinion
Yesterday evening, a familiar UK‑originating number kept popping up on my screen, demanding a subscription renewal for The Economist. The pattern matches classic telemarketing: repeated calls, pressure to confirm personal details, and vague promises of discounts. Callers often claim official status, yet they avoid leaving voicemails or written confirmation. The safest move is to block the number on your handset and report it to your carrier’s spam‑filter service. If the caller asks for payment details, hang up—legitimate companies will never request card numbers over an unsolicited call. Register your number on the national Do‑Not‑Call list and consider a third‑party call‑blocking app for extra protection.
