01206562256 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01206562256 👆 is reported as an intrusive and suspicious number frequently making early morning calls, often around 7:30 to 8:00 am, including weekends. Recipients commonly describe silent calls, hang-ups when answered, and unclear or foreign-accented voices. It is associated with scams involving false claims of unauthorised transactions or attempts to sell energy services, which cannot be reliably verified. Call-backs often fail or lead to engaged lines.

The number is widely blocked and reported for harassment, and users are advised to avoid engagement and refrain from returning calls. Registration with the Telephone Preference Service does not appear effective against these calls.

Got a call from 01206 793072 around 1pm on 01/05/2024. They left a voicemail saying there was some “odd transaction over £1000 on my card” and asked me to ring back for details. They never said who they were, which made me quite wary straight away. I've received similar messages before, but never from this exact number. Since 01206 is my local area code, it almost tricked me into answering. I’m pretty sure this is a scam aiming to steal credit or debit card info. So, I’d say this number is definitely risky and best avoided.

The call was totally quiet, then suddenly there was a beep and someone said bye.

This number claims to be affiliated with Mastercard, attempting to flag a suspicious £600 transaction that I haven't authorised. It’s clearly a scam, so I’d recommend blocking or disregarding any communication from them. Stay safe!

Got a call super early, like 7:49 in the morning, this asian guy talking about saving cash on electricity and gas. Sounded like some sort of scam to me. The number was dodgy anyway, so I've just blocked it.

I got a call on my landline just before 8 in the morning. Could hear a lot of noise in the background, pretty sure it was from some call centre. The person had a really heavy foreign accent, but I just ended the call without saying anything.

My mum got a call from this number, but the line just went silent as soon as she picked up. I've been waiting to see if they ring again. It's pretty annoying!

I got two calls from this number today. I’d pick up but nothing happens at first, then after a few seconds you hear noises kinda like a call centre, and right after that the call just drops. Could be spam, but I’m not totally sure.

Got a missed call on my phone earlier today but no clue why they were trying to reach me. Really annoying, please just quit calling! I've reported them and blocked the number now.

Got a call early this morning at half past seven. I answered to find out who it was, just to see what kind of company would think it’s alright to phone that early. Not impressed at all, so I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number now.

Got one of those quiet calls again, where there's nothing but silence on the other end. So frustrating!

That same number keeps ringing me at 7:30 in the morning without fail. I attempted to return the call on my mobile, but the line was out of service. Quite odd, really!

I've been receiving incessant calls from the number 01206562256, nearly every single day without fail. They usually kick off around 8 in the morning and it's quite exasperating. As an elderly individual with hearing difficulties, these interruptions are particularly bothersome and disruptive. The voice on the line is often hard to decipher, leading me to just hang up in frustration. Although I’ve registered my number with the Telephone Preference Service, it doesn’t appear to deter them in the slightest. My only wish is for them to cease these relentless calls. - Caller: 01206562256

Just had an annoying phone call at the crack of dawn, around 7am, from this number: 01206562256. They were attempting to peddle some kind of product, which is really not on at that hour!

Been receiving calls from this number for the last couple of days, even over the weekend around 7:45-8:00 in the morning. The one time I picked up, it was a fella with an Indian accent on the other end. He was inquiring about someone who lived here three decades ago. - Number: 01206562256

I absolutely detest receiving unsolicited calls at the crack of dawn on a Saturday - especially at 8 AM! It’s just rude to interrupt my sleep like that. The number that disturbed my peace was 01206562256.

I've been receiving numerous calls in recent days, and they often disconnect as soon as I pick up. This morning, they tried me while I was still tucked up in bed. An Asian woman was on the other end, but I struggled to grasp what she was saying. I believe the word ‘gas’ came up in her spiel. I've since blocked the number.

Received a call on my home phone at precisely 10:20 this morning, and lo and behold, the same happened yesterday. They identified themselves as ‘Energy Switch’. I’ve looked into them but come up empty, so I’m quite certain it’s a dodgy operation. - Caller: Energy Switch

Got a call on my home phone from someone about switching energy providers but they wouldn’t say which company. I just told them I wasn’t interested and ended the call.
