There is not much you can do to them as they are located abroad in the UK. Just ignore them.

I dunno about our guest, but it would really chap my a$$ to just bide and ignore something like this. Filing complaints with the Attorney General and FTC only takes a moment, and may bring at least a feeling of having 'done something.' Documenting abuses is fairly easy, too. He might not be able to sue, but...
Given that this is apparently a UK-based operation, I might also be digging into ways to make them uncomfortable. The UK consulate springs to mind here, as do elected officials.
Just my $.03 [adjusted for inflation...]

Welcome to the community Guest. Good news! Louisiana is a one party state, meaning that only one party of the conversation (you) is required to give their consent in order to record a telephone conversation.

DID YOU HEAR FROM THEM AGAIN? DID THEY EVER DO ANYTHING TO YOU? YOU KNOW THEY CAN'T ARREST YOU. WAS IT ABOUT A PAY DAY LOAN?

agree with frog..if located in U.K,they do not fall under U.S. regulations,ftc etc,ignore as he stated..because Us does not get involved,unless Rico occurs I think. and unless you plan to travel abroad to persue the matter,ignore don't bother with threat and dont waste time,Frog adviceis best option

You can find out what city they are located in and complain to their constable. I think Parliament may have enacted similar laws to our own governing this type of activity.

Here is the area code information:
303~Colorado, covering Boulder, Longmont, Aurora, Denver, Highlands Ranch, and other areas in central Colorado.
203~Connecticut, covers:
Ansonia, Beacon Falls, Bethany, Bethel, Bethlehem, Branford, Bridgeport, Brookfield, Cheshire, Danbury, Darien, Derby, East Haven, Easton, Fairfield, Greenwich, Guilford, Hamden, Madison, Meriden, Middlebury, Milford, Monroe, Naugatuck, New Canaan, New Fairfield, New Haven, Newtown, North Branford, North Haven, Norwalk, Orange, Oxford, Prospect, Redding, Ridgefield, Roxbury, Seymour, Shelton, Sherman, Southbury, Stamford, Stratford, Trumbull, Wallingford, Waterbury, West Haven, Weston, Westport, Wilton, Wolcott, Woodbridge, Woodbury
917~New York:
It is the standard cellular/pager/voicemail phone area code for all of the city's boroughs and is an overlay to 212, 347, 646 and 718. Occasionally, 917 is also assigned to landlines (most commonly in Manhattan, due in large part to the sparse availability of area code 212)

Snickers11. Here are the corresponding area codes, the city/state they are located in as well as the names and websites of the telephone numbers service providers. I suggest filing a complaint with your state Attorney General's office, the Federal Trade Commission. You may also wish to file a police report for harassment and file complaints with these companies:
917: XO, number is in New York, New York, www.xo.com
203: Paetec Communications, number is in New Haven, CT, www.paetec.com
303: Qwest Corporation, number is in Denver, CO, www.qwest.com
