01143034042 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01143034042 👆 is reported as a persistent automated school absence or truancy call, often originating from numbers unrelated to your local area. Many parents receive repeated calls if they haven’t reported their child’s absence or if the school’s records haven’t noted a valid reason, even if already reported via app or text. The caller doesn’t always leave a voicemail, causing confusion and frustration. Some users suspect it’s spam or a scam due to the strange number origin and the lack of message clarity. The calls can be frequent and relentless, sometimes multiple times a day. Despite the annoyance, it’s generally linked to an official school attendance follow-up system, although some people have reported unclear or silent calls and occasional mismatches between the caller ID and school location.

This number has been ringing non-stop almost every day for weeks. I never picked up 'cause I figured it was just some spam, and honestly, that's still what I reckon it is. Usually, if someone calls and no one's there, they leave a voicemail, right? But this lot never do. They just keep ringing and ringing. So yeah, I'll only pick up if pigs fly or something. Simple as that.

That school truancy hotline seriously never stops! Mine’s been off sick for ages but if you don’t ring in to tell them, you get bombarded with automated calls for what feels like forever. Even when you do answer and give all the right info properly, they just keep ringing. It’s honestly a nightmare and such a strain every day!

I keep getting calls from this school and honestly, it feels like harassment. If I don’t pick up one time, they just keep ringing non stop. It’s really annoying and a bit much.

Got a call from a Sheffield number, picked up to hear an automated voice saying my name and my kid's school, asked if that was right. I ended the call straight away since we're actually based in South Shields. My child wasn't at school today, but I'd already reported the absence through the school's app.

Not 100% sure but my lad is off school sick today, he goes to a school in Leicestershire and from all the other comments it looks like this might be related. I mean, when I see a random number from Sheffield I just figure it's junk anyway.

The school’s new absence number called me, which I get the reason for it, but my daughter is actually away on a school trip today. So, I’m not sure why she’s showing as absent?

I just got a call from this number, but my son’s not missing school or anything. I didn’t pick up and they didn’t leave any voicemail.

I think this might be a government line. When you don't report your kid's absence, they keep ringing nonstop with a message like "Is this (Your name)? Press yes if it is." And if you answer "No," it responds with "That's the wrong answer!" Really annoying stuff.

18th June 2024: I had a rather peculiar experience today, receiving two phone calls within the span of just an hour. On both occasions, an automated voice prompted me to confirm my identity by pressing either 1 or 2. Quite suspicious, I must say! I promptly decided it was best to hang up and subsequently blocked the number.

It's an automated line intended for reporting when a child is away without any explanation. Just to clarify, this isn't junk mail.

They rang me even though I’d already told them my son wouldn’t be in because he was at a try out day at a special school, which the school was fully aware of! Such a pointless use of time and effort.

This is just a standard absence notification service for schools. If your kid's been off and the school doesn’t bother checking their emails-like in my case-you'll receive a robocall inquiring whether you’re aware that your little one hasn’t shown up.

I think this number is linked to schools, probably for attendance stuff. None of the schools I asked had any clue either, so maybe it’s just some kind of error or technical problem.

It seems to be a universal contact number utilized by educational institutions for attendance purposes. However, there's no clear understanding among these schools as to why it’s showing up; it could simply be a technical hiccup.

I've got no clue why this number keeps popping up. I’m based in Leicester, yet I’ve just had a call stating that my child is missing from Beauchamp College. It’s all rather perplexing!

The school sends out automated calls about absences, along with emails and texts - it's really annoying. The number shows up as being from Sheffield, but the school’s actually in Caister-on-Sea. That made me a bit wary seeing the Sheffield area code. I can't imagine how much money schools are wasting on all these different systems.

This is the main number for the school attendance office. Should your child be away from school, they will get in touch with you to let you know and inquire about the reason for their absence.

Received a call from an automated system purporting to be linked to my child’s school. The voice prompted me to press '1' if it was me or '2' if it wasn't. Without a doubt, this is spam.

I think it’s one of those automatic lines for school absences. My daughter didn’t go to school today, and the message I tried leaving earlier this morning didn’t seem to get recorded. Maybe they’ve got a set up that calls parents or carers automatically?

At first I was just letting it ring cause the number looked dodgy, turns out it was the school's automated call about my kid's absence.

So, this call was from an automated system for the school's attendance team. My husband's meant to inform them when our daughter is sick, but he couldnt get around to it this time. I was hesitant to reply because the number showed up from a strange area code, not near us. Still, after I checked with the school, they told me this was legitimate and they do use that service for attendance calls.

Got a call from what sounded like an automated system for the school’s attendance. Our daughter was home sick and my husband was meant to let the school know she wouldn’t be in, but he couldn’t get around to it. I nearly ignored the message since it showed up from a number based far away, which made me suspicious. Still, after checking with the school, they confirmed it was their attendance system contacting me.

I didn’t pick up, thought it might be some spam since they didn’t leave any voicemail. My lad was off school today and I’d completely blanked on notifying them on time. Then I got a text from the school asking me to confirm why he was absent. Looking back, I reckon that missed call was probably the school trying to check in, but not leaving a message made it super confusing.

I just put up my review for that number, and then guess what, they called me again. It's definitely one of those automated calls asking why my kid missed school today.

Some lady rang me, said she was doing a holiday survey or summat, but I don’t really recall the exact name. She wanted info about my last package holiday, but when I told her it was like six years ago, she said sorry and that it had to be within the last three years. That’s when I realised I’m signed up to the TPS. I’ve blocked that number now.
