I have no idea who they are or any ties to Leicester. I picked up, said nothing, got no reaction, then ended the call and blocked the number straight away.

Received a nasty call from some call centre trying to scam me. If you want these annoying calls to stop for good, just head over to [spam website]. It worked for me 100%!

Some bloke from this number called my husband, threatening to ### him and saying he knew our address! We’ve handed it all over to the coppers now.

I didn’t get a voicemail, so I looked up the number and, just as I thought, it was another spam call.

Got a call from this number earlier tonight. Someone wanted to talk to someone in my family. I asked who was calling and what company they were from because I suspected it was a call centre. When I put the phone down for a moment and picked it back up, the line was silent. Then a couple of minutes later, the phone rang again and this time the person was shouting at me asking why I’d hung up! I told them I hadn’t. They kept going on and on, so I calmly told them to stop being so rude and if they didn’t, I’d report the call. After that I definitely hung up. Seriously, what cheek!

I received a call from someone inquiring about my TV service setup. I mentioned I wasn't interested in any offers and was quite content with my current service. I requested that he take my number off his call list, but he claimed he couldn't do that. When I pressed for an explanation, he abruptly hung up. The caller, who introduced himself as Amman, had a heavy Indian accent, which made the conversation quite challenging. It's getting quite frustrating; how on earth can I put an end to these persistent calls? I've been inundated with three or four similar ones today, each from a different number.

Got a call from this number today. I told the person on the other end that I’m on the TPS register, but he claimed it was a lawful call and insisted he wasn’t selling anything. I told him all these random calls ought to be banned. Asked him to take me off their list and never ring me again. He was still shouting even after I ended the call!

I got two calls back to back, one from abroad and then one from a 0116 number. Feels like the same outfit behind them both, can’t be just chance. They keep ringing week after week even though I’ve told them the person they're after isn’t about - they’re calling for me using a name I haven’t gone by in over two decades!

I had no clue who this bloke was, but he seemed to know my address right down to the postcode! He started firing off the typical market research questions, but honestly, I struggled to keep up. He had such a thick Asian accent and spoke at lightning speed, it was a bit overwhelming, to be honest.

Got a call from a woman with an Asian accent, she claimed she wasn’t trying to sell anything, just wanted my feedback. She said the name sounded like Infinite Pavings, but I think it was actually something like Infinite Savings. When I asked what company she was representing, she suddenly cut the call. Pretty suspicious if you ask me.

This bloke called me, never said his name, just asked if he ‘d reached the person with my name. I asked who it was, but all he did was mumble about some survey thing. I told him I’m not into surveys and he just cut the call out of nowhere!

This morning I got a call from a woman who sounded Asian. She claimed she wasn’t trying to sell me anything, just wanted to hear my views. When I asked where she’d found my phone number, she told me it was available publicly. I pointed out that it wasn’t and asked again where she got it. She suddenly went silent, so I ended the call.

This morning at 9:35, I received a call from this number. When I picked up, they hung up straight away. I've had calls from them previously and they’re becoming quite bothersome. I'm left wondering what they hope to achieve with these calls. It really is quite irritating!

Today at around 14:12 I got a call from this bloke claiming his name was Aiden and he was from Infinite Saving. He said he found my number in some public database. I told him that was rubbish and he had the wrong info, then the cheeky sod just went and hung up on me.

I've had a few calls from this number, and I tell you, it’s utterly baffling! They ring, I pick up, and there's just silence until one of them eventually mumbles something about 'John'. When I ask why they don’t reply to my cheerful ‘hello’, they promptly hang up on me. What a waste of my time!

Got a call on my landline at about 2:34pm on 21st January 2017. The bloke sounded Asian and somehow knew my name. He said he wasn’t trying to sell me anything. I cut him off quickly saying I was just about to leave, which was true. He kept going but I’d already hung up.

i got a call from someone with an indian accent who knew my name, but then asked if they could call me by my first name. i found it a bit creepy so i ended up hanging up and blocking the number. a little while after, i saw they tried calling again but now i can’t seem to get through at all.

They kept asking for my age, name, where I live and a bunch more personal stuff like who my internet provider is and the brand of my washing machine - all the typical questions these calls throw at you. I just gave them made up info and kept pretending to be interested, stretched the call out to about 10 minutes. Proper frustrating since they’ve called me three times already today with the same old script.

The number 01162414497 seems to be a landline in Leicester, probably BT. It keeps calling and then going silent, which is really annoying. Wish their manager checked websites like this so they’d realise their employee isn’t actually doing anything worthwhile. They’ve just ended the call, but I didn’t hang up. Since I don’t really mind the landline being off because of idiots like this, I’m just gonna leave it disconnected for now to hopefully stop them bothering anyone else. I’ll put the phone back on before bedtime. This happened on Friday 20th January at about 3pm.

01162414497 - It seems this number belongs to a BT landline based in Leicester. I've been getting calls from this persistent silent caller, which is quite unfortunate. If only their supervisor were to stumble upon these websites, they might realise their employee is larking about instead of earning their keep. They rang and promptly disconnected without uttering a single word. But here's the kicker: I haven't hung up, so it’s a bit of a stalemate until I decide to. They’re welcome to wait! Honestly, I don't mind leaving my landline off the hook; I shall do just that until I retire for the night. 😉 Friday 20th January 2017 15:00

01162414497 - it looks like a BT landline from Leicester. They keep ringing but never say a thing, which is pretty annoying. I wish their manager checked out websites like this, so they might realise they’re wasting money paying these daft callers. Just got a call from them and they hung up straight away without a word. I didn’t hang up though, so as far as I know, they won’t be able to call anyone else till I do! Honestly, I don’t mind leaving my landline off the hook because of these idiots. I’ll keep it that way until bedtime tonight :) Friday 20th Jan 2017, about 3pm.

Got a call around 6 tonight, just like others mentioned, but as soon as I picked up, it just hung up. Guess they’ll keep ringing now that they’ve seen someone’s actually there. Would be great if these annoying calls could just be banned for good!

01162414497 - This number frequently rings without uttering a word. It’s a shame that their employer doesn’t check out sites like this; perhaps they’d realise they’re shelling out money for absolutely no productivity from their employee.

For the last two nights, at around half past five, my phone’s been ringing with no one speaking when I pick up. Last night was silent, and tonight, as soon as I answered and the answer machine clicked on, the call was ended! Really odd!

I tried calling the number but it just kept saying it wasn't valid or something.
