01208227099 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01208227099 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance scam involving calls from individuals claiming to be "John" from a driveway company. Callers frequently use multiple similar or spoofed UK numbers, often ringing several times a day without leaving messages. They inquire about driveways, sometimes referencing properties inaccurately, and attempt to engage recipients in unsolicited sales or to elicit personal information. Many report these calls as harassment, noting disregard for do-not-call preferences and ex-directory status. The calls are widely recognised as a scam, with users advised not to respond, not to provide any information, and to report the incidents to appropriate authorities such as the police fraud database and the Telephone Preference Service. Blocking numbers has proven ineffective due to the use of numerous different numbers.

They keep ringing my landline but as soon as my answer machine picks up, they just hang up. What’s worse is they use numbers that are only a bit different from each other, so if I block one, another one pops up straight away. Honestly, BT should really do something about this because it’s their network that lets these scam calls come through in the first place.

BEWARE, it's defo a SCAM! If you want to help, head over to Google and type in 'action fraud', then go to the official 'police.uk' website. Find the section for reporting phishing scams and make sure you read everything carefully. After that, submit all the info about the scam, including any links or website addresses, straight into their database. This is really the only way the cops can track how widespread these scams are. Don't just ignore it!

Total con! Some bloke named John claiming to be from a “driveway business” keeps ringing a bunch of different numbers. The weird bit is John isn’t sticking to one number either - he rings me from loads of different ones, forcing me to block each one. Definitely a dodgy caller using fake numbers from all over the place! Here’s a few of them: 01208 227099, 01970 607499, 01417 7298566, 02039 308652, 02039 308736, 0121 3146295, 0151 3128452. All just bothering me nonstop. And I’m supposed to be on the ex-directory list!

This bloke John from that driveway place has been ringing me once more. It’s twice today and the last time was a few weeks back. Got caught up chatting with him then about resin drives, which I really didn’t want to do. He kicks off by saying ‘I noticed you have a driveway at your home’ - yeah, I do, but how on earth does he know that? Bet he’s been creeping on Google Maps or Street View, staring at people’s homes! Feels like proper harassment, almost scary if you ask me.

I've been getting endless calls from some bloke named 'John' pushing that driveway scam. Whenever I block one number, they ring from another. Honestly, I can't keep track of all the different numbers they've come from. On one occasion, the guy actually claimed I'd had a driveway before and asked if it was still there. When I replied with something like, "You mean on a houseboat?" he didn't skip a beat and just carried on with his pitch. Eventually, I told him exactly where he could shove his nonsense. I'm properly fed up with these so-called callers.

Honestly, I don’t even let them finish after they say who they are, but I’ve made it clear loads of times I’m not interested. Yet, the calls just keep coming. These calls feel like harassment, maybe even some kind of scam or spam, really dodgy if you ask me.

I keep receiving calls from a chap named John, supposedly from the Driveway Centre. It’s been going on for months now, starting with 01135 214054, and just last week I began getting calls from a different number since the 21st of March. He rang last Thursday afternoon, then again Friday morning, and followed up Monday morning, Tuesday morning, and yet again just now. Sometimes I like to play along and compliment him on his phone etiquette, suggesting he might want to channel that talent into something worthwhile. His response? A chirpy, “Well, have a lovely day!” This evening, I finally asked him why he thinks it’s acceptable to pester someone on the TPS and if he takes pleasure in duping people. Surprisingly, he acknowledged my point and wished me farewell. Quite the polite lad - a shame that his actions are quite the opposite. John, if by some chance you're reading this, I urge you to reconsider your path before it eats away at your conscience in years to come.
