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.

11 yearsYesterday 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.11 yearsGot a call from a lady saying she was ringing from some sort of charity, but the signal was rubbish and kept cutting out, so I never really caught who she was or what it was about.11 yearsThis number, 01179088268, keeps ringing me up. I don't pick up, but then right after my landline stops, my mobile starts buzzing with the very same caller. Honestly, what a nuisance! - caller: 0117908826811 yearsI’m a bit confused about why I’m even looking this up. I’m with Virgin Media and already pay them, so why on earth aren’t they blocking these calls? - caller: 01179088268Virgin Media11 yearsGot two calls from this number but no voicemail left either time - blocked straight away!11 yearsGot a call from this number two days in a row, both times right around the same hour. I've gone ahead and blocked it now.11 yearsAnyone know who that was on the phone?11 yearsGot a call from this number, the person claimed they were ringing for guide dogs charity.11 yearsI had an experience just like everyone else here. Definitely going to block this number now.11 yearsHaha, 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.Greenpeace11 yearsSomeone 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.Stand Up 2 CancerCancer Research11 yearsNo matter what, they wouldn't have anything to do with being intrusive.11 yearsThis number keeps ringin me every day but no one ever picks up when I answer.11 yearsI got a call from Ethicall[###][###], said it was about charity fundraising. They mentioned on their site you can ask to have your number taken off their list.11 yearsFor the past week, I've been getting a call around lunchtime every single day. Honestly, it's driving me mad!!!11 yearsGot another missed call from this number - definitely a scam!11 yearsThis number 0117 908 8268 keeps ringing me every single day recently, its really annoying.11 yearsGot a ring just after 8pm and it totally disturbed my kids! I tried to be polite but ended up telling them off pretty sharp, saying if they dialled me again I’d track them down and chop their legs off with some old rusty spoon haha!11 yearsGot a call on my phone but they didn't bother to leave any voicemail.11 yearsGot a call from someone looking for an Ibrahim Kahn, which is strange since this number’s been mine for over 8 years. Seems a bit fishy to me.Ibrahim Kahn11 yearsThis number keeps ringing my landline at least three times every day. I never pick up, and they never bother to leave a voicemail. It’s really irritating. - caller: 0117908826811 yearsGot a call from a call centre wanting to arrange some environmental direct debit thing.11 years[#][#]ethicall[###][###]/ yep, that's the business!11 yearsSomebody called claiming to be with the Dolphin Protection Society. I told them I wasn’t looking to get involved and then decided to block the number.Dolphin Protection Society11 yearsThey’ve been ringing me tons this week, even up to 8:19pm. Tried to ring back but all I get told is they’re calling for a charity or something. Pretty frustrating.11 yearsHe said he was calling for cancer research or something but I told him straight up I didn’t want to talk. I also made it clear not to call me again... let’s see if they actually respect that!11 yearsGot a call on my phone but no voicemail or anything, bit strange.11 yearsThis number has called me loads of times but never left a single message.11 yearsThis number has rung me up four times over the past week, including two calls just yesterday evening, one of which was around 7:50 pm. Pretty annoying!11 yearsThey keep ringing me, sometimes twice each day, even as late as 8:45 in the evening. I just don’t pick up, hoping they’ll eventually take the hint.11 yearsThey keep ringing me like 5 times every day, it’s really getting on my nerves!11 yearsI got repeated calls from Ethicall Bristol, who say they're fundraising for charities but I reckon they take a big cut before any money actually reaches those charities. To get them to stop ringing, you have to email [email protected] and give them your full name, address and phone number. Bit ironic considering they’re calling you most likely to harvest your details. Feels like they're just trading your info to other dodgy Bristol companies. Hardly the ethical folks they claim to be. I'd trust them about as far as a Swansea solar panel PPI debt recovery firm!Ethicall BristolBristol11 yearsThis number called me, but I didn't pick up. I've gone ahead and blocked it now.11 yearsThis number just keeps ringing and when I answer there's never anyone on the line.11 yearsI got a call from some people at Greenpeace asking me to put in a direct debit to help out their charity.Greenpeace11 yearsThis number showed up on my missed calls list, so I decided to block it right away - caller unknown.11 yearsFor 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: 0117908826811 yearsThis number keeps calling me a couple of times a day but I don’t know who it is so I just ignore it. My Nokia Lumia 510 sadly doesn’t have a way to block numbers which is a pain.11 yearsThis number has been ringing my mobile loads lately.

Really annoying, honestly.11 yearsI usually get calls about fundraisers, mostly for charities like WWF.World Wildlife Fund11 yearsI got a call from 0117 908 8268 about some charity fundraising. They were asking for donations for WWF, which is cause I do support.World Wildlife Fund11 yearsThis 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.11 yearsI picked up the phone only for them to drop the call straight away. Probably just testing if the number is active or something. The number was 0117 9088268.11 yearsLoads of times I’ve seen missed calls from that number pop up. Looks like it’s some sort of firm that helps other businesses with their fundraising efforts.11 yearsThis morning, I got a call from a bloke named Tom using the number 0117 9088268. He said he was ringing for Amnesty International and wanted to know if I could spare £10 a month for donations. Quite persistent, but I wasn’t really up for it.TomAmnesty International11 yearsHonestly, I just wish these folks would bugger off for good. Not interested one bit!11 yearsIt seems that these individuals are quite keen on having you register with one of several charities they represent. It can be rather bothersome, to be honest, as they are exceedingly relentless in their approach.11 yearsCould you tell me who this individual is?11 yearsThis number just won't stop calling!Submit Your Own Report (0117 908 8268)
