01142994947 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01142994947 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance caller associated with timeshare scams, frequently contacting numbers listed on the Telephone Preference Service (TPS) and those ex-directory. The calls often involve silent or abandoned calls, hang-ups upon answering, or aggressive behaviour when challenged. Callers claim to be from various timeshare claims management companies, including one named United Claims, promising assistance with mis-sold timeshares but typically demanding money. Many recipients report daily calls with no voicemail left, causing considerable distress and annoyance. Blocking the number offers limited relief as the caller uses multiple numbers and international spoofing. Reporting these calls to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) and Action Fraud is advised. Users are warned to avoid divulging personal or banking information and to exercise caution with any calls related to timeshare claims.

I’ve been getting loads of calls from this number every day, even though I’m on the TPS registry. The first time I picked up, I told them I knew they were scammers and they just yelled at me before hanging up. I’ve now blocked the number, but the calls don’t seem to stop.

This particular number seems to ring us daily, and despite being registered with the TPS, it appears to have no impact. We've added the number to our block list, yet it still manages to ring before falling silent. It's quite maddening! What steps can we take to put an end to this nuisance?

I’ve had loads of calls from the number 01142994947 recently, and luckily I use this savvy app called HIYA that keeps an eye on who’s calling. Most times, I don’t even notice the calls till I look at my phone later on. They never leave any messages or anything.

I keep getting calls to my landline every day from this number, but I never pick up. I even received a call from a mobile, 07455764465, on the same line, which I just ignored. Despite being ex-directory and having registered with the TPS for ages, reporting them to https://ico.org.uk/ hasn't stopped the calls. Honestly, if the ICO and TPS aren’t handling it, maybe it's time to involve the police for harassment.

For the past month, I've had calls from three different numbers, all linked to timeshares and all from Sheffield. Every time I block one, a new number rings a few days later. Honestly, feels like harassment at this point. I'm just going to block this new one too.

For weeks now, this number keeps ringing me daily, obviously some kind of robocall. I did pick up one time, and it was a timeshare sales pitch.

This number, 01142994947, has been bugging me non-stop! They always ring super early and when I pick up, they just hang up. It’s happening almost daily now. Earlier, they even asked for a person I’ve never heard of. So annoying! Definitely reporting it.

Got a call from some place saying they deal with holiday ownership disputes, something about timeshare misselling. Honestly, I reckon most timeshares are dodgy sales anyway, so they'd be drowning in work if they had all those details. They keep ringing me up despite me telling them to buzz off. Quite annoying!

This number keeps phoning me continuously but there's never anyone on the other end. When I don't answer, they don’t bother leaving a voicemail or anything. I’m not able to block it because my phone initially shows the Sheffield number with 'International' but as soon as the call ends, it just says 'International' and then I can’t block the caller. Proper annoying!

Over the past few weeks, they’ve called me loads. I kept ignoring the calls but finally picked up today. They claimed to be from United Claims, something to do with timeshare financing. I asked where they got my number since I never shared it with them or agreed to be contacted. They said I’m listed on some timeshare database. Told them to take me off their list and the database, and not to call me again. I’m planning to report them to the ICO.

I've been getting nonstop calls from this number on my home phone, and it's such a waste of their time since I have no clue who they are, haha. Luckily, my BT Guardian handset picks up on these dodgy callers and stops them from getting through. I reckon these scammers must be watching websites like this to keep track of how often they get flagged so they can keep changing their numbers. Honestly, I just hope someday one of these muppets gets busted and faces the music.
