I've received several calls from this number during the past week. I picked up once, and the bloke on the other end claimed he was from the PPL PRS. I didn’t stick around for a chat, though; I just hung up.

They’ve rung me several times across a couple days but never bothered to leave a message.

I received a call from 0116 218 2151, yet they didn’t bother to leave a message. After doing a bit of digging, I discovered that this number has been flagged for being linked to a scam involving some sort of Government Scheme. Quite concerning, really!

Just a word of caution: if you're not in possession of a PPL or PRS licence, steer clear of returning calls to 01162182182151, as it's a rather pricey premium line. Instead, it's much wiser to reach out to PRS or PPL at 0800 072 0808, which is toll-free. While there’s an annual licence fee involved, you'll definitely save yourself some money by contacting them instead of dialling that dodgy number!

Annoying! They keep calling and claiming to work for some music licensing firm.

I received a rather insistent phone call from an outfit claiming to represent PPLPRS, asserting that securing a Music Licence is a mandatory requirement imposed by the Government. I mentioned that we’re simply renting an office within a serviced office setup and have no intention of hosting any music-related events or playing any tunes. They pressed for a manager's name, which I declined to provide. I firmly informed them that we have no need for a licence at the moment and would reach out if that ever changes. Their approach felt quite aggressive, leading me to suspect either a potential scam or just a rather unprofessional way of doing business. For anyone genuinely seeking a music licence, I’d suggest checking directly on the Government's website - they provide reliable contact details for PPLPRS there.

I received a call from someone claiming to be with PPLPRS inquiring whether we played music in our establishment. I informed him we don’t, but he was rather insistent and insisted on speaking to a manager, mentioning it was a legal issue. I supplied him with a generic email address, but he assured me he would ring back. Quite unpleasant, honestly!

I received a call from PPLPRS, who were inquiring about music licensing issues, particularly if music is being played at my business premises. To be honest, it was rather bothersome, as the caller insisted it was a legal matter and pressured me with convoluted terms from what sounded like a rehearsed spiel. He then started questioning me about the presence of televisions in break rooms and such. Honestly, I could just say that there's no music being played at all or that everyone is working remotely! It wasn't fraudulent, just an attempt to gather information about any music or television usage in an office setting.

Beware of spam calls!

I've been receiving a slew of calls from the same bloke using this number, claiming to be from PPL PRS about some Music Licence payment. It's really starting to irritate me! Initially, he was calling from a landline, 0113 539 9008, but after I blocked that one, he switched to this new number. It's relentless!

I’ve discovered that this number is linked to Kuala Lumpur. We recently received a fraudulent call about a music licence, posing as PPL PRS. Just a heads up to everyone, stay vigilant!
