The caller was really pushy. I told him I wasn’t interested in any energy deals, but then he accused me of asking for a call back, which I definitely didn’t. I kept asking to talk to a manager a few times, and once he figured out he’d messed up, he just hung up on me.

This number keeps showing up with missed call alerts, but the odd thing is my phone never actually rings, just like other people have said. Feels like some sneaky trick to dodge the rules. If you try calling back to see who it is, then technically you’ve made the first move. Really fed up with this nonsense.

I was travelling abroad and my phone got a call from this number. I never picked up but somehow it still charged me. Quite annoying!

Avoid calling this number, it’s a total scam. I tried ringing it back using my landline and ended up with a £7.80 charge on my phone bill! I’ve contacted BT about it and am still waiting to hear if they’ll refund me. What’s worse, it somehow gets around my iPhone’s blocked numbers and keeps bothering me like twice a week for ages now. Proper pain in the neck!

Got a call from someone saying they were ringing for the Canadian Cancer Society. They wanted donations, but it was so clear it was a scam. The bloke had a thick English accent and it sounded like he was actually calling from England on some dodgy VoIP line. Just felt really fishy.

Today, I received a call from this number with an automated message about PPI claims. Even though I hung up almost straight away, within 3 seconds, it still charged me 1.50 quid in roaming fees. These types of annoying calls make me lose around 10 pounds every single month. Honestly, I’ve had enough! I’ve submitted complaints several times, but it feels like the officials just aren’t bothered to do anything about it.

I’m from the Philippines and actually think it’s funny how these calls charge £1.50 per minute. I’d be happy to take them, but the catch is I’d end up paying that same amount myself!

I get calls from these morons at least once daily. Every time I pick up, they just stay silent and never say a word. And when they don’t get an answer? No messages left either. Honestly, they should just find something better to do!

Basically, when you pick up the call, you're giving permission for your phone to be tracked. It's like connecting your device to some sort of tracking system without realising it.

I get calls from a number that's really close to one mentioned earlier, but mine shows up as 020 3476 4381 on my phone. When I try to play the voicemail - which honestly doesn't exist - it’s the 0118 number that’s read out instead. Quite confusing, honestly.

Got a ring from this number while I was away, it only rang about three times and then just cut off. Not sure who gave them my details, maybe from places like the bank or shops like Tesco, M&S, Waitrose, or Debenhams sharing info. I never check my voicemail and only pick up if I recognise the caller.

One day, when I’ve got a free moment, I’m planning to pay these folks a visit and give them a bit of a shock. Until then, I just let their calls ring out, save the number labelled as SPAM in my contacts, and ignore. I can’t wait to see how gobsmacked they’ll be when I turn up at their doorstep.

Since I came back from Austria, this number has been ringing me every day. I never pick up because it usually rings while I’m at work and my phone is switched off. Later, my phone shows I’ve missed a call and displays the number. I decided to check it out since the area code is from my town, and I assumed it might be genuine. No voicemail has ever been left though. Looking back, I’m relieved I didn’t call back to discover who it was! I was under the impression that cold calls from PPI firms were no longer allowed!

I find it weird that these phone calls only happen when folks are overseas - how does that even happen? When I was visiting the States, I got four calls in total: three from 01189005596 and one from 0118900500. Didn’t pick up any of them and still haven’t checked if they left anything on my voicemail. No messages so far, but I guess if they did, I might have been charged for receiving them. What’s the deal with these calls only showing up when someone’s out of the country?

This number rang me earlier and it was one of those automated messages about PPI compensation. I only answered for a few seconds, but it still charged me £1.50 in roaming charges! I reckon I’m losing around £10 a month thanks to these annoying calls. I've put in complaints, but it feels like no one’s actually doing anything about it. It’s really frustrating now!
