I've been inundated with missed calls from this number, and it’s become a right nuisance! I really fancy having a word with someone to let them know I've signed up for the Telephone Preference Service. I’m curious to hear their take on it.

This phone number has been calling us roughly half a dozen times daily, and it all started shortly after we visited the comparison site Go Compare.

I found the sales approach to be quite relentless and rather annoying. They insisted that I had participated in a survey, and supposedly these callers were getting back to me about one of my responses. However, they weren't able to provide any information promptly, which was quite frustrating.

Received a call from this number, but the line just went silent. Terry, how did you come across their website? Have they reached out to you in any way? I'm curious to find out who these individuals really are.

01162492630 Ah, just let that one slip by without answering. Cheers for all your insights; I'm relieved we didn’t pick up! We only looked into it because we think it's a number from Leicester, where we have mates living.

We're receiving calls from these folks incessantly as well. I’m hardly ever at home, so they just pester my partner, who ends up saying I’m not about. This chap insists that I've been looking into mortgages online and then bombards him with an array of queries regarding our mortgage affairs. My other half hasn't got a clue, as I handle all those matters. It seems they must have snagged our number from somewhere like MoneySupermarket or a similar site, as that's the only plausible explanation for how they got hold of it. Oddly enough, we've requested this to stop over a year ago!

I've been bombarded by these absolute nuisances, ringing me at least once a day for the past fortnight. Occasionally, they bombard me with back-to-back calls, only to leave me hanging when I finally pick up. Honestly, I'd love to tell them where to shove it, but they never give me the opportunity to say a word!

We’re constantly getting calls from this number, and every time we pick up, the line just goes silent. It’s becoming rather annoying, as they ring us frequently-some days it’s daily, other times it’s just a few times a week. The calls can come at any hour, including late ones, with the most recent coming in around 8pm last night. Who on earth are these callers, and why won’t they bother to speak when we answer?

It seems like almost on a daily basis, we're receiving yet another pointless "silent" call that ends up cluttering our voicemail. More often than not, it’s from an 01162 number!

For the last three weeks, I've been getting a minimum of one call per day from this number. It's utterly maddening! The callers claim to be from Legal and General, but aren't they just a small-time operation based in Leicester? Quite puzzling if you ask me!

I’ve been getting a minimum of one call each day for the last three weeks from this number, and it’s driving me absolutely mad! What's particularly annoying is they never leave a message. We’ve definitely never participated in any surveys, so I have no idea why they keep ringing.

We tend to bypass these calls altogether. It’s fascinating how some remarkably clever individuals are employed at call centres. Ultimately, though, it’s the company itself that appears rather foolish.

It’s absolutely extraordinary how many times these folks have attempted to contact us-212 times, no less! Oh, how we adore the wonders of modern technology. We’ve even signed up with the Telephone Preference Service and certainly haven’t consented to receive these calls. I've made several attempts to ring them up to request that they stop, yet I can’t seem to get through to anyone!

At the end of the day, a cold call is just that - a cold call. It really doesn’t matter how these folks got hold of your number; the issue remains that they’re reaching out without your invitation, all in a bid to peddle something you most likely have no interest in. It baffles me why these companies can’t grasp the simple idea that if I wanted their services, I would take the initiative to reach out to them. It's utterly counterproductive!

I keep getting calls from this number, and I can't for the life of me figure out how they got hold of my details. It’s maddening! Whenever I pick up, there's just silence on the other end. When I try to call back, I find out it's AWD Finance saying they’ll try again later. Honestly, they're quite the bother!

These callers aren't just blindly reaching out to you. It's quite possible that you participated in a survey or submitted a form that had a tiny print mentioning your details could be shared with businesses that might pique your interest. That’s the reason behind these phone calls; they've received your information as a lead. We can confirm this is the case.

We consistently get calls from this number around 5 o'clock, but there's never anyone on the line. It’s quite peculiar, really…

For the last few days, we've been getting roughly five calls daily from this number. We never answer; we simply let them ring out and move on, yet these callers just won't take the hint and keep trying to reach us. It's rather annoying, to say the least!

I received numerous calls from the number 0116 249 2594, but the information provided on their website is quite misleading. It states an address of Fourth Floor, Arnhem House, 31 Waterloo Way, Leicester, LE1 6LR, alongside the number 0116 255 0234. Quite baffling, really!

We've had our fair share of missed calls from this number at various times throughout both the day and night. Not once have we received a message, and whenever we attempt to return the call, it’s impossible. Does anyone have a clue about who this might be? It’s becoming quite bothersome!

This number keeps ringing me up, and every time I pick up, there's just silence on the other end, then the call drops. It's quite often too, sometimes every day, sometimes just once a week. The calls come at all sorts of times - yesterday it was as late as 8pm. Anyone got any idea who they are or why they never say a word?

For the last couple of weeks, these idiots have been ringing me everyday. I pick up after a ring or two, but all I get is silence on the other end. I’d like to give them a piece of my mind, but they won’t let me say a word. It’s so frustrating.
