Phone number ☎️ 01179088268 👆 is reported as a persistent telephony source primarily associated with charity fundraising campaigns, often on behalf of organisations like environmental and animal welfare groups. Callers typically seek to establish regular donations but many recipients perceive the calls as intrusive, frequently receiving multiple daily attempts without messages left. Some have experienced confusing call patterns involving alternative numbers. The caller identities vary and attempts to verify authenticity can be difficult due to inconsistent information and occasional call disconnections. Many users choose to block the number to avoid nuisance calls.

The calls are widely regarded as unwelcome and ethically questionable by those contacted.

Yesterday when I got back, my landline showed 21 missed calls, all from the same number. Each time it rang, it went on for about 4 rings then stopped. They left weird messages saying they’d signed a lease for their flat and oddly mentioned I had a new boyfriend. I’ve gone ahead and blocked the caller now.

Haha, I really can't stand charities and there's no way I'll ever donate to one, even if hell turns into an ice rink. Greenpeace annoys me the most. That tree-hugger who kept going on about scrapping Trident quickly learnt that with me.

Someone rang me up about donating to Stand Up 2 Cancer, trying to get me to set up a direct debit to help raise money. I told them I already contribute to Cancer Research every month. The lady on the phone was quite nice about it though.

The company in question is Ethicall Bristol, and they facilitate calls purportedly to raise funds for charities. However, one can't help but wonder just how much of your contribution actually reaches the intended organisations, as they likely pocket a significant portion before any funds make their way to the charities.

To put an end to their unsolicited calls, you're required to send an email to

[email protected], including your Name, Address, and phone number.

Of course, this raises concerns that they could then peddle your details to other dubious individuals lurking in the Bristol area, especially since you’ve unwittingly handed over your contact information. It appears their ethical claims are rather questionable.

Think of them as trustworthy as you would a Swansea-based debtor chasing after solar PPI payments!

For the past few weeks, my mum's been getting calls from this particular number. Weirdly enough, if she ignores it, another, totally different number will ring her other phone straight away. It’s all a bit baffling. I’m pretty sure it’s just some cold caller, but I can’t say for certain. - caller: 01179088268

This number keeps ringing my phone loads, but never leaves a voicemail if I don’t answer. Seems like one of those cold-callers for sure. I get at least two calls a day from them, but I’m usually busy at work and can’t pick up. When I try to call back through my answering service, all I get is silence then they hang up. Honestly, I’m gonna block this number, 01179088268, as it’s starting to get really annoying.
