01143190628 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 01143190628 👆 is reported as a persistent and intrusive scam operation targeting mainly UK landlines, often posing as the Telephone Preference Service (TPS) or affiliated organisations. Callers frequently use multiple similar numbers with a local area code, changing the last digits to evade blocking, and claim to offer nuisance call blocking or TPS service upgrades. They commonly possess some personal details like name and address, which raises concerns about data breaches. Their main aim appears to be extracting sensitive financial information, such as card expiry dates or bank details. The callers often use foreign accents, are pushy, and hang up if challenged. Many victims, including elderly individuals, find the calls harassing and distressing. Blocking measures are limited in effectiveness. Authorities have yet to provide a satisfactory resolution despite widespread reports. Vigilance and refusal to share personal or financial details are strongly advised.
Reports on phone number 01143190628
9 yearsMy 85-year-old dad got a call where they were asking for his card info. Seems like they were specifically picking on him. Quite worrying stuff.9 yearsGot a call claiming to be from the Telephone Preference thingy, and the first thing they asked me was how I pay for my phone. When I said that was private, they hung up right away. Since then, I’ve had three calls from these guys, heads up, the third one was from a different number - 01312048701. Watch out for these lot!Telephone Preference Service9 yearsThis morning at around 6.45, we got a call from 01143190628 and it really woke us up.9 yearsI answered the phone bright and early at 7am today, but there was just silence on the other end. No one said a word.9 yearsOver the past few weeks, I've been getting loads of calls, the latest one was at 7am today. No one ever talks when I answer, it's getting super frustrating.9 yearsBeen getting loads of calls these past few days, but whenever I answer, no one's on the line. It's really irritating and they just keep bothering me non stop.9 yearsI got calls from these numbers - 01143190628, 01623270162 and 01447863626. They kept saying they were from something like the Telephone Preference Service, but then they asked weird questions about my bank details, sounded like they were from some Asian group or something. Told them straight to buzz off and warned if they ring again I'd report it to the cops. Watch out everyone, seems dodgy!Telephone Preference Service9 yearsMy mate picked up the phone when someone asked for me by name. She told them she wasn’t the person they wanted and definitely wasn’t the account holder. The caller, sounding like they might be Chinese, said that wasn’t a problem and asked to speak with her anyway. She told them firmly, “Don’t interrupt, I’m from British Utilities and here to assist you.” Since I’ve never heard of such a company, I figured it was a scam. We put the call on speaker and walked away. The caller kept going for about three minutes trying to get a response before eventually hanging up.British Utilities9 yearsJust got a call from this number at 12:14 today, but there was nothing on the line and they ended the call straight away.9 yearsGot a call from a bloke named Darren, claiming he’s with TPM or something. He already knew my name and where I live, then tried to get my card details saying it was to stop unwanted calls. I told him no way, then he put me onto some other muppet who just hung up when I told him to jog on. Best thing is to just hang up or ignore these sorts.DarrenTPM9 yearsThis number rang me four times yesterday, but I didn’t pick up any of the calls since there was no voicemail left.9 yearsGot a call from 01143190628 earlier today. The person said they were from the telephone preference service and told me there was some kind of upgrade to my account. Then they asked me to read out the numbers on my bank card to prove who I was. I flat out said no, and they quickly got irate. I ended the call straight away, not giving them any chance to get info from me.Telephone Preference Service9 yearsThis number has called me three times now, each time with a different message. These kinds of calls are really making landlines useless and honestly, they ought to be stopped for good.9 yearsKept ringing but no one ever answers when I pick up, gonna try and block the number.9 yearsGot a call tonight from 01143190628. A bloke with an Asian accent asked for me and started going on about call blocking. This is just one of many scam calls I've had lately, with fraudsters pretending to be from the TPS (telephone preference service). They've been ringing from numbers from 01143190621 up to 01133190629 and also 01623270165. It's frustrating that the authorities can't seem to do anything to stop this widespread annoyance.Telephone Preference ServiceTPS9 yearsReceived a call from 01143190628 claiming to be my phone company offering to block unwanted calls. They mentioned an account holder’s details that weren’t mine and then asked me for my card info. I said no thanks, but then the caller got really pushy, going on about me being a ‘senior citizen’ and having some ‘voice barometric’ thing. I ended up putting the phone near the radio to drown him out, and after about 10 minutes the call finally dropped. Beware of 01143190628 - it’s obvious a scam and just a nuisance trying to trick people.9 yearsFor the past two weeks, I've been getting a few calls every single day, no matter what time it is.9 yearsA woman called claiming to be from the TPS and talked just like they describe in the fifth quote here. Really disappointing.Telephone Preference Service9 yearsThis number has called me six times today, but no one's spoken, just silence. The last time, I told them I’d be reporting it to the police.9 yearsGot a call from a woman with a foreign accent claiming to be from the telephone preference service. She already knew my name, postcode, and even that I pay my phone bill by direct debit using a Visa card. Asked me for the card’s expiry date and said she’d wait on the line while I got it. I wasn’t having any of it and told her off before hanging up. This number has been ringing me loads over the past week or so.Telephone Preference Service9 yearsGot a call from a guy named John, sounded like he wasn’t from Europe or somewhere close. He said he could tell I was struggling with my computer’s windows. My husband told him to get a real job and then he just hung up. This wasn’t the first time today either - earlier this morning at about 6:50, a number from the same area code but different ending rang me too. These scammers, whatever you want to call them, are just a bunch of annoying nuisance. I’m done wasting my time answering their nosy questions, I’ll just hang up straight away from now on.John9 yearsHow do these scammy folks get ahold of our info even before ringing us up? I wonder if some other business has been selling our details behind our backs. Something really needs to be done about this rubbish, big companies!9 yearsGot called by a lady with a foreign accent claiming to be from the telephone preference service. She already knew my name, my postcode and even that I pay my phone bill by direct debit with a Visa card. Then she asked for the expiry date on my card and said she’d wait while I got it. I refused straight away and told her where to go before cutting the call. This number has been ringing me loads over the past week or so.Telephone Preference Service9 yearsI got three calls in just a few hours from someone claiming to be Henry from the TPS. When I asked why he was calling, he told me to verify my name and address but I didn’t give him any info. Sounds like a total scam to me.HenryTPS9 yearsI got two calls from 01143190628 within just a few hours. I told them straight away that I wasn't interested, thanks. The second time, the person on the line with an accent said they might call me for up to 3 hours a day! Honestly, I think this is really annoying and feels like harassment. They seriously need to be put to a stop.9 yearsGot a call from a bloke who sounded Asian, claiming he could help me upgrade my BT TPS to block all those annoying calls. He already had my name, address, and even knew I pay by direct debit, but then he asked for my Visa card expiry date to 'finish the upgrade'. Didn’t fancy it at all, so I told him where to go and hung up sharpish.Direct Debit9 yearsJust got a call from someone saying they were from TPA, asking me to verify the expiry date on my debit card. When they gave me one, I said it was wrong. Then they wanted to check the sort code for the Direct Debit linked to my subscription! I called them out as a scammer and ended the call. But would you believe it, they rang straight back, telling me off for hanging up! I told them I’m well within my rights and that I’d report them. So heads up everyone, I’ve blocked the number now.TPA9 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from the Telephone Preference Service, asking me to verify my name and address. When I questioned him, he threatened to take me off the TPS list for accusing him of being a scammer. Honestly, it all felt quite intimidating.Telephone Preference ServiceTPS9 yearsGot a call from this number but nobody answered. When I looked it up, lots of people said it was a telemarketing scam. They’ve also tried me from another number too.Telephone Preference Service9 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be with TPS asking if I was receiving annoying calls. I admitted I was, and he said he could put a stop to it. Then he started asking for my name and address, and even wanted me to confirm when my credit card was due to expire. That’s when I just ended the call.TPS9 yearsI picked up the phone straight after lunch, but it was just dead air on the other end. Typical waste of time!9 yearsI havent picked up, but I got calls from this number like five times yesterday and a couple this morning. I'm gonna block it now but judging by what people are saying, that might not do much!9 yearsI got calls from 01143190626 and 28, so I installed a call blocker to deal with them. Now both numbers are blocked. I doubt it's really Sheffield; seems more like a scam from India since they can use any number they want. Hopefully, they’ll give up soon because they’re not gonna scam me, those cheeky lot.SheffieldIndia9 yearsThis is the third time I've gotten a call from them today. They're really irritating, especially since they ring at all sorts of different times. I'm just trying to ignore it, but it's a bit frustrating.9 yearsbeen getting calls from these jokers three times in as many days. luckily, they never actually spoke to me for some odd reason. if you're a BT customer, might be worth signing up for the 1572 service - it lets you add these kinds of numbers to a block list. its helped reduce the nuisance calls a lot for me, apart from these lot who keep switching numbers. if it keeps up, I reckon I'll ring BT and ask if they can sort it out, though I doubt they'll do anything.BT9 yearsJust like before, it's really frustrating. I’m done picking up - might as well let it go to voicemail.9 yearsOh great, here we go once more. These annoying people have just switched the last digit of their phone number - yesterday it ended in 0626, and now it's 0628. They rang me at 10:13 this morning. Added them straight to my call blocker and reported to the ICO. And guess what? While I’m writing this, they tried calling back at 10:16. Blocked again! What a pain.ICO9 yearsGot a ring from 01143190628 earlier today, with the person saying they were from the Telephone Preference Service and wanted to tell me about an upgrade to my plan. I asked if there’d be any fees involved, and they said it was free for now. Then the line got really bad and the conversation became unclear, so I just ended the call before they could try to get any more info from me.Telephone Preference Service9 yearsNormally I just ignore these calls, but decided to answer this one. Caller claimed to be from BT, checking if my nuisance call blocker was still working, which was quite suspicious. They even knew my address! Then they tried to get me to confirm my direct debit details. Once I told them my wife handles all that stuff, they hung up straight away. Next time they call, I’m planning to mess with them properly!BT9 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from the telephone preference service. They already had my name and address sorted. Then they asked me to confirm my visa card expiry date. I questioned them about it and they just hung up on me!9 yearsThose numbers .0624, .0626 and .0628 are definitely from the same lot, targeting old folks and anyone who’s easy to fool. Total scam calls, be careful!9 yearsI just got a call from them AGAIN, that’s the 4th time today! The bloke had an Indian accent, knew my name, and said he was ringing about unwanted calls. I told him he’d already called me four times today, so he was the one being unwanted. Then he hung up on me.9 yearsThey claimed to be from the telephone preference service. I was actually answering on behalf of my elderly gran. They then asked for her sort code and bank account details. When I said I was just ringing about the policy, they suddenly ended the call.Telephone Preference Service9 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be with the Telephone Preference Service, but they asked me to verify my bank info, which seemed a bit off to me.Telephone Preference Service9 yearsGot calls from 0114 319 0628 this morning, a guy with a strong Indian accent saying he was from "Telephone Preference Management." He rang our landline three times within about 90 minutes. The first two times I quickly ended the call as soon as he mentioned that name. On the third try, I let him finish and told him it was their third call today and to stop calling, but he just hung up straightaway! We’ve been on the official TPS register for years, so how do these people still manage to get our number? It’s so frustrating!!TPS9 yearsThat pond was so rank, not a single fish, no matter how hungry, would dare swim close. Straight to the block list with that one.9 yearsThe number seems to keep changing, like someone said before, they've been ringing different numbers that jumped from 0622 right up to 0628 now. Today they called at 7:25 in the morning, but they've also phoned as late as 7pm and loads of times all through the day.9 yearsBeen getting calls from 01143190628 loads, like others mentioned it’s the same area code but they just switch up the last number. Yesterday it was 622, now it’s 628. They keep ringing all day and I’ve had 3 calls in just the past 40 minutes alone. Proper annoying!9 yearsGot a call from this number earlier today, but all I could hear was silence and then some faint background noise before they just ended the call.9 yearsOver the last four days, I’ve gotten about a dozen calls from this number. They keep asking about someone who lived here before but sadly died nearly ten years ago - I told them that, yet they just hang up like it hasn’t registered! On the bright side, the calls always come when I’m free during the day, so I’ve had time to answer these probably dodgy, scammy types (can’t be sure, but I’m suspicious).9 yearsThis number has been ringing me non-stop the past few days, sometimes up to 10 times daily. They never bother to drop a message on my voicemail. I usually ignore calls from unfamiliar numbers, but this is getting really annoying. If it was a genuine business or someone important, they’d surely leave a message asking me to call back. Feels like a dodgy scam call to me… watch out!9 yearsThis number has been ringing me non-stop for days now. I looked it up and decided not to pick up whenever it shows on my phone.9 yearsThis number keeps calling me non stop, feels like a total scam for sure. Really annoying and probably best to avoid!9 yearsWithin the space of an hour, I just got my second call from this number. This time they actually managed to talk. It turned out to be the same person I dealt with yesterday, but from a different number which we’ve already blocked. They claimed to be from the Telephone Preference Management, not the TPS. I told them the only number I’m interested in blocking is theirs! Proper persistent and really annoying.Telephone Preference ManagementTPS9 yearsFor days, I just let calls from the 01143 number go to voicemail since they hung up as soon as the answering machine picked up. Got fed up yesterday and finally answered because it kept ringing constantly. The guy on the other end said he’d block nuisance calls (can you believe that?), then asked if I still pay my BT bill by Direct Debit - that’s when I quickly ended the call. Now, they’ve called me again. Such a pain!Direct Debit10 yearsHey, anyone know who this might be?Submit Your Own Report (0114 319 0628)
