Absolutely, I’ve received a call from the same number as Tony, and the message is pretty much a carbon copy of his. At least they’ve bothered to leave a message, but I haven’t the foggiest idea who they are. We're starting to think it’s yet another bunch of debt collectors on the hunt for the previous occupants of this place. It’s quite infuriating, really!

Is this call meant to be complimentary or what? Honestly, we're getting bombarded with calls every single day, which is frankly infuriating. We’re on night shifts, and having our rest interrupted like this is absolutely unacceptable! I rely on my phone for work, not for your company to ring us up just to leave us hanging in silence. If you decide to call again, at least have the decency to actually have a conversation with us instead of letting it just ring without any follow-up!

This number keeps calling me multiple times every day, but I never get a soul on the other end. I’ve been registered with the Telephone Preference Service for ages, so I'm baffled as to why they keep ringing or who they might be. It’s quite irritating, to say the least!

I've had my fair share of calls from this number as well, and it seems to be linked to those pesky PPI claims. What a lot of people don’t seem to grasp is that these firms pocket a hefty fee of about 25 to 30%! The truth is, you can sort this all out easily by getting in touch directly with the provider of your policy or your bank, and it won't cost you a bean... Why shell out for the same service twice? As for the Telephone Preference Service, what a waste of time! When I called them to find out why I was still receiving all this advertising rubbish, they informed me they can only tackle legitimate calls. What good is that? Charities and the like are still free to pester us, and they’ve got no power to manage that. So unless we just yank our phones out of the wall, it feels like we’re stuck enduring these irritating cold callers endlessly!

I've received numerous calls from this number over the past few days, often multiple times a day. Each time I answer, it’s just silence! I shan't be returning the call, as I'm wary of getting hit with one of those pricey call charges...

We receive calls from this number nearly daily. Every now and then, as soon as I sit down at my desk and answer, the line is completely silent. When I tried returning the call, I was greeted by a pre-recorded voice stating, "Consumer Money Matters has tried to reach you. We'll call again later." Quite the nuisance, isn't it?

I received a missed call from Leicester on 0116 249 2472, which prompted me to return the call. It turned out to be "Consumer Money Matters." They only engage with ethical financial institutions, akin to Building Societies and the Co-Operative. As a result, I think I’ll just brush them off!

I’ve had a few rings from this number in the past, but today, while enjoying a day off, the caller identified themselves as "Carrington Carr" reaching out for a "follow-up". I decided to hang up!

I've been receiving calls from a particular number, with the caller asking for someone who doesn't reside here. Upon informing the caller about the absence of such an individual, I was then asked to provide my own name. Additionally, they inquired if I lived at a specified address in my town. Having no connection to the mentioned name or address, I made it clear that it is unnecessary for them to know my personal information. Furthermore, I explained that I do not entertain unsolicited calls. Consequently, I ended the conversation by hanging up. I am actually registered with the TPS, so these kinds of calls are quite infrequent, although they do seem to come in groups. It's high time that Ofcom takes necessary action to address this issue.

I have been receiving calls from this particular number for quite some time now. Every time I answer, there is absolute silence followed by an abrupt disconnection. Thankfully, I now have caller display and no longer answer calls from unknown numbers. However, it is still frustrating and completely unacceptable that someone is invading the privacy of my home.

Indeed, I completely agree, day and night! It's perfectly alright to block unwanted calls on my mobile phone. I'm contemplating purchasing a caller display feature so that I can simply disregard those calls. It's quite bothersome to receive more than twenty calls every week. They are excessively curious, intrusive, and delve into personal matters, which is not something I appreciate. If the person calls again this week, I will firmly ask them to leave and go away!

To everyone inquiring about how to block unwanted contacts... I own a Samsung smartphone, and the process is quite simple. You can add these contacts to an auto-reject list, which will also work for blocking text messages.

I'm incredibly frustrated with these never-ending phone calls. It's just one of many that I've been receiving, so I've started keeping track of the numbers, dates, and times they come in. How can I block them? I'm also dealing with calls marked as withheld or out of my area, where the person on the other end remains silent when I answer. One day, a woman had the audacity to respond cheekily when I politely declined her offer. She asked why I didn't want it and why I wasn't interested. Honestly, she made me so angry. To make matters worse, that same number called four times that day and continues to call on other days as well. Please tell me what I can do about this. I receive around nine or ten calls a day from different numbers. Thank you for your help.

Hi Bryan, If you could give me a quick call at 0116 249 2462 and share the number I’m contacting you from, I’ll be able to remove your number from the directory. The office was operating until 5pm today and will reopen at 9am tomorrow. Cheers, Phil. CMML

This evening, my husband received a call from this number, but he hung up after exchanging just a few words. When I inquired about it, he mentioned it was some sort of insurance firm, though he couldn’t remember which one. As I’m signed up with the Telephone Preference Service, they really shouldn’t have been contacting my number in the first place.

I've never had any dealings with these individuals prior, yet they seem to be relentless in their attempts to get in touch. By mistake, I picked up one of their calls, which turned out to be about PPI or some such nonsense. Honestly, I have no desire to fork out for such services when I’m more than capable of handling it on my own if the need arises. It’s really not rocket science! There ought to be regulations in place to curb this sort of harassment, as it’s utterly infuriating.

I have not had any previous dealings with these individuals, yet they persistently call me. By mistake, I answered one of their calls, which turned out to be related to PPI. However, I do not require such services, as I am capable of handling these matters myself if need be. It is not a difficult task. There should be regulations in place to prevent this kind of behaviour.
