I received a call from this number asking if we were speaking to Mrs. . . . As soon as we confirmed it, they abruptly hung up. Quite odd, if you ask me!

I found it quite difficult to communicate properly in English. It really comes across as a bit dodgy, if you ask me!

We received a call as well, and typically, I don’t tend to return calls. However, given that we were anticipating a call from someone, I decided to ring back. The call disconnected right after, leaving me quite frustrated. What a complete letdown! Honestly, I wouldn’t advise anyone to bother reaching out to these folks.

We've recently made contact with these individuals; they operate as a data media and research consultancy.

For the past month, I've been receiving calls from these folks who are constantly asking for my husband. Oddly enough, every time they ring, he's always at work. This morning alone, they tried calling twice, but the moment we inquired about their identity and let them know he wasn't home, the caller, who sounded Indian, got a bit irritated and abruptly ended the call. It's quite baffling, to be honest!

Absolutely, I’ve had a similar experience with this number as well. A bloke on the other end gave us a name, an address, and a phone number, and even attempted to throw in an email address that wasn’t mine. As soon as I started questioning him, he abruptly ended the call. It’s quite infuriating, really. It seems like just another tactic used by some marketing firm pretending to gather research. Can someone please explain to these people that offering misleading information and then hanging up isn’t acceptable? A simple apology would suffice rather than cutting off the line!

We received a call from a company claiming to be "INSTANTWIN. CO. UK", but it all feels rather dodgy to us.

I received a call from these individuals, and as soon as I picked up, they hung up on me. This isn't the first time it's happened, either. I've just come onto this site to try and uncover who they might be. Honestly, just leave us be! I've got plenty on my plate without having to deal with nonsense like this!

I've received a couple of calls from this number, and every time, the caller hangs up on me. Luckily, I haven't bothered to return the call, so that's a relief!

Absolutely, I had a similar experience with this number. The person on the other end clearly had trouble articulating themselves and ended up giving us our own name first. Then, they rattled off our address and phone number too, which was a bit disconcerting. To top it all off, they shared an email address that isn’t associated with me at all. The moment we probed a bit further, they abruptly hung up! It’s quite frustrating to think this is merely a tactic used by some market research company. Can't someone educate them on basic phone manners? A polite acknowledgment that they'd got their facts wrong would’ve sufficed instead of the sudden drop of the line!

I received a call from this number recently. They seemed to be after specific information, but I couldn't quite follow what the chap on the line was saying-his accent was rather thick. He mentioned he couldn't disclose what he required and then abruptly hung up! Quite impolite, if you ask me!

Absolutely bizarre! This number keeps ringing us, but only when we’re at home. I answered once, and it was completely silent-very peculiar! The digits show up as 01142814570 and 00441142814570, which raises a few suspicions. It feels a bit fishy, and we suspect they might not actually be from Sheffield, despite the 0114 code. Definitely something off about this one!

Received a phone call seeking our husband, where the caller claimed to be affiliated with their platform. However, she wasn't a member at all. She mentioned that others would get in touch again, and as we tried to clarify that I’m registered with the Non-Call Preference service and shouldn’t be receiving such calls, they abruptly hung up before I had a chance to request my details be removed from their contact list. Quite baffling!

Initially, it was just a call with no one on the other end, but then they went on to ask for us by name-with laughter and a lot of racket from the street behind them. It’s quite unsettling, to be honest, especially since we have an unlisted number and they refused to reveal who they were. It's put us on edge a bit!

A call came through to our home phone, and they were asking for my wife. When we explained she wasn’t available and offered to take a message, they started yelling down the line and then abruptly hung up. Absolutely unacceptable behaviour! It's quite frustrating, and I’d appreciate it if they could erase any details they’ve noted about us. The second time they rang, we asked to speak to a manager, and once again, they just cut the call. Ridiculous!

Blimey, I just had a call from them as well! I tried ringing them back, but the moment they picked up, they hung up on me. What a cheek!

We keep getting calls from this number while we're at our jobs, and as soon as we try to return the call, they just disconnect! It's rather frustrating, to say the least!

I received a call from them earlier, so I decided to return the call, only to be asked for a password to proceed.

If you receive a call from the number 01142814570, I suggest hanging up immediately. It’s nothing but a scam; they’re just after your cash!

Today, I received a call from someone asking to speak to my husband. As soon as I mentioned our availability to assist, they insisted that a certain member of their site needed to converse with them (the name slipped my mind). My partner, however, was utterly baffled and claimed she didn’t have the faintest idea who they were. She’s not into computers at all, but she’ll endeavour to get their name the next time they decide to ring up.
