I was looking to get a B&Q Trade account set up (for which I meet the

I don't mind them having my email address but I don't want to give them
my mobile number. Unfortunately they apparently insist on a mobile
number that they can send SMS text advertising to.

Anyone else had this issue with B&Q Trade accounts and, if it wasn't
acceptable to you either, what did you do to get round it?

Give them a dodgy mobile number, or the number of someone you don't like,
