This question already has an answer here:
What do you do if someone says they'll email you tomorrow, and they don't?
2 answers
So I get a call from a company asking general questions about myself and in the end they tell me they want to see me in person. She asks me if so & so time & date is good for me. I say yes and she tells me she will send a confirmation email telling me whom to speak to at reception, time, date & location.
I know the location but I am in a dilemma if I should go or not? Moreover, I forgot the name of person who talked to me. So I call them & operator transfers me to someone and the call goes to voicemail. I haven't heard back after leaving voicemail.

Go to the interview. Better to go to an interview that doesn't happen than to not turn up for an interview when you are expected. Even if it doesn't happen, they're like to feel bad and re-schedule you in for a later date.
You're fine just to turn up for the company and say you're there for the interview - that's usully enough for most companies except the really, really big.
The exception to this might be if you have to make an expensive commute - don't spend lots of money if you can't confirm the interview exists.
Dumb question, but did you check your spambox?
Anecdote here: When I started my last job, I asked a question about the start date & time, but never got an answer. I was only about 80% sure I actually had a job to turn up to. I turned up anyway and everything was fine, but the CEO at the time had noticed that they'd forgotten to confirm everything and apologised sincerely. Sometimes just hoping for the best works out fine.
I think I would go, also I did check my spambox. Let's see how that turns out. Though it's a long commute but I think I can manage. I called again and the call again went to a voicemail.

@user3777390 If you don't remember her name ask who normally handles HR. If the name sounds familiar then say oh yeah that must have been her.
