Reports on phone number 01179505599
2 yearsGot a call around 10:15 saying my phone would be disconnected by noon. I tried ringing back at 12:15 but the line was dead. Proper pointless, if you ask me.6 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from HMRC, saying I owed a payment and had to pay straight away! Total scam. I missed three calls from them after that and have just blocked the number now.HMRC6 yearsThey’ve rung me half a dozen times this morning already, honestly such a nuisance.6 yearsI've had two calls with no one saying a word, both just yesterday and today.6 yearsThis was clearly a scam, so I just hung up straight away. Don’t bother getting involved with calls like this. If you’re registered with the telephone preference service, they definitely wouldn’t be ringing you!6 yearsThis number rang me twice today, but just silence each time. I didn’t pick up and they left no voicemail either. After seeing what others have said about it, I'm reminded of a call I got months back where a guy claiming to be from the telephone preference service asked suspicious questions. He was an Asian man and got a bit dodgy when he started asking for bank info! Definitely adding this number to my scam block list from now on.Telephone Preference Service6 yearsI’ve been getting nonstop annoying calls this whole week. I try to report a few to BT when I manage. I did put my number on the TPS a long time ago, but these calls keep coming anyway. Really fed up with it!BT6 yearsEvery single day this week they've been ringing me up, but never left a voicemail. Seeing what others have said here, I think I'll just block the number now.6 yearsToday around 9:10am I got a call from this number, a bloke with an Asian accent trying to tell me my Telephone Preference Service was ending soon. I cut him off quick and told him straight up I've got two words for his nonsense, and the second one’s "OFF"!!!6 yearsGot another call from silence today. Just one of those annoying days, I guess.6 yearsOn the morning of March 5th, 2020 around 8:44, I got a call from a guy with what sounded like an Asian accent, number was 01179505599. He warned me that I’d get into trouble if I didn’t pay attention to his call. I just replied “Alright then” and hung up straight away. This happened near SOUTHAMPTON.Southampton6 yearsHad two silent phone calls come through within the past couple of hours.6 yearsGot a call from a bloke speaking with a Filipino accent saying he was from the TPS, the Telephone Preference Service, and that our subscription was about to run out. When I told him it's actually free to use TPS, he seemed a bit rattled and I just hung up straight away.TPSTelephone Preference Service6 yearsThis number rang me again today, the second time within just three days, but since I’ve got it blocked I didn’t even bother answering.6 yearsGot a call with no one saying a word. Quite strange, felt like a silent prank or something.6 yearsNo one spoke when I answered. Just dead silence.6 yearsGot a call from 01179505599, bloke had an Indian accent and was chatting about my telephone preference service. I didn’t even bother listening, just hung up straight away. After reading what others said about this number, I’m pretty sure it’s just another scam call.6 yearsPicked up and nothing but silence, so I've gone ahead and blocked that number!6 yearsThe caller from 01179505599 sounds like he’s got an Indian accent, and honestly, it’s a total scam. I really think people should report him to their phone company and even the cops so they can stop this bloke from ringing up and conning folks out of their cash. Don’t just ignore it, try to get it reported so he can’t keep stealing from innocent people.6 yearsGot a call from 01179505599, some bloke with a weird foreign accent trying to chat about blocking nuisance calls. When i said he was one of the nuisances, he didn't take it well. Told him to jog on pretty firmly and he just hung up. Why does BT let these annoying calls go through their network? Wish these no win no fee companies would crack down on them, but they'd probably end up skint!BT6 yearsBloody 'TP' yeah right! Ended the call right there, no way I was putting up with that.TP6 yearsI’ve blocked the number 17 950 5599 now, even tho 0117 is definitely Bristol’s area code. It’s still just a scam caller, no doubt about it.Bristol6 yearsCharles said he’d help me deal with annoying calls. When he asked how many I get every day, I told him none at all, apart from the one we were on right now. He didn’t seem to like that and just ended the call.Charles6 yearsSome guy with a thick Indian accent said his name was "Steve" and said he was from the "telephone preference service". I told him I didn’t buy it and said he was dodgy. Then he just hung up on me.Steve6 yearsGot a call from Pluto Electronics saying my call blocking subscription was ending soon. I told him it’s a machine, so it can’t really expire. He kept arguing like it was legit. Hung up before he could ask for any payment info, which I’m guessing was next. Blocked the number straight away.Pluto Electronics6 yearsSome bloke called saying he was with BT, told me my call blocking thing was about to run out and asked for my bank card info to sort it. I asked him where he was ringing from and he said England. Then I asked for his phone number and he just cut the call. Pretty dodgy if you ask me.MartinBTEngland6 yearsGot no clue who that was, left no voicemail or anything, so I've just blocked the number.6 yearsI got a call the other day where it was dead silent at first, then right as I was about to end it, a guy with a strong foreign accent spoke up. He was asking for Mrs so-and-so who supposedly lives here. I told him she wasn’t in and asked if I could pass a message on. Just after that, he cut the call. Not sure what kind of scam it was, but I’m betting it wasn’t legit.6 yearsGot called twice today, both times it was dead silent on the other end. Quite odd.6 yearsGot a call where someone was asking for my card details.6 yearsGot a call from someone asking for my card details to renew a service for a call blocker that I never signed up for. Pretty dodgy if you ask me.6 yearsGot a call but no one spoke on the other end, just pure silence. Bit odd, really.Submit Your Own Report (0117 950 5599)
