I'm sure you must have given it to the account, I imagine if you go and look at the personal details it will be there. Did you ever link the account with any other account, facebook or anything?
Call customer services and ask where they obtained the number. If they are using some sort of directory enquiries service, you could suggest that they don't do that. Find out what it is and ask to be removed. It is actually a data protection issue, so they should explain what info they have. |

I am inundated with Emails and texts regarding loan, PPI, bingo, competitions, surveys, debt, credit cards, bank loans, pay day loans, you name it they have been coming through every day. Some has sold my Email and mobile number on and i am having to inscribe to these unsolicited nuisances.
if you are not expecting a parcel then ignore it especially if they then want bank details etc! |

That's strange, you really do need to do what Deighton suggests, they are obliged to tell you...

These companies have ways and means to know everything about you.

Complain to the Information Commissioner's Office, http://ico.org.uk/ , because it's likely that an offence has been committed, and you may be able to claim civil damages too.
