If they are from dealers, then it is likely that they have looked up
the number ranges and know that the number was issued 1 year ago.
They probably don't know who you are. Ask them who they want to
speak to. They will probably reply "The account holder".
Add your number to the TPS list:

This will stop most (but not all) of these calls.
UK companies have a legal obligation to check against this list
before making a marketing call.
