01216782348 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01216782348 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance and scam caller, often using fake local numbers with heavy foreign accents and automated or silent calls. Callers falsely claim to represent government schemes, broadband providers, or organisations like the BBC, frequently offering “free boilers” or car accident claims. Many report no message is left, with hang-ups or rude behaviour occurring when answered. Attempts to return calls are typically unsuccessful, as numbers often do not exist or are unreachable. These calls cause distress, especially to vulnerable individuals, and are linked to international scam operations. Users strongly advise ignoring or blocking the numbers, noting regulatory response is inadequate, and warn that engaging with such calls may result in further harassment or telemarketing.

Got a call from 0121 678 2348, but the woman on the line had such a strong foreign accent I couldn’t make out most of what she was saying. She mentioned something about internet stuff, but I just said I couldn’t follow and was ending the call. They rang back a bit ago but I just let it keep ringing.

Got a call from ‭0121 031 8045‬ which sounded super robotic. They said it was about car accident claims. Ended the call straight away. Best to ignore these dodgy calls.

0121 943 2693 Called me, sounded African and claimed to be from Openreach about my broadband. I pretended to go along with it for a while but then he got annoyed when I couldn’t get the Windows key plus R right after about 10 tries. He kept grilling me about my personal stuff but didn’t buy it when I said I was an orphan or whatever. Ended up swearing at me, calling me a f##king mother f##ker multiple times before just hanging up.

I received a call from what sounded like a busy call centre, but they didn’t leave any message. When I tried to ring them back, a recorded voice greeted me instead, asking me to leave a message and then to press either * or # to connect with an operator. Unfortunately, I couldn't get through, and the call cut off abruptly. Quite the hassle!

I just received a call from a gentleman of Asian descent named "James." When I politely indicated that I wasn't interested, he responded with a rather rude remark, calling me a "stupid bloody idiot." Quite disappointing, really, as I discovered that the number seems to be disconnected when attempted to call back. It's astonishing the calibre of individuals this appalling company has on their payroll!

My parents keep getting calls like twice every day, but when they answer, it's just dead silence. It's really upsetting them, especially with my dad having dementia. I don't get who these people think they are! It's so frustrating because my parents are already signed up with the telephone preference service.

Just got a call today from 01456 456 7777, looks like the same scam group from India is behind it again. The number itself has that obvious pattern - 456 then 7777 - and weirdly, the 678 234 bit shows up in other fake numbers by these lot. Guess the scammers still know how to play with numbers! Check out what others have said about the 01456 numbers, it’s the same scam all over.

Got 5 calls over the last couple days and since the number’s unfamiliar, I just ignored them. Looking it up now, feels like my instinct was spot on. Looks like either a scam or just annoying telemarketers! Can’t label it as harmful without proof though, but I’d definitely report it.

This number from Birmingham keeps ringing me repeatedly over the past few days. Feels like they’re using some kind of auto dialler as I used to be a director. Occasionally, the phone shows it as an ‘international’ call which is a dead giveaway it’s dodgy, but other times it doesn’t. The simple fact with these calls is they wouldn’t bother if they weren’t after cash. If we all just don’t respond, they’ll eventually stop pestering us. Honestly, we hold the power to put an end to it.

My mum got a call on our home phone, some bloke claiming to be from the Government offering a free boiler. Sounds fishy, right? I asked him straight away for his full name, contact info, and the company's official details, but he kept messing it up. He spoke with a strong foreign accent and tried to defend himself, but I kept asking which government he meant. He just called me silly and couldn’t explain anything. I told him to take my number off their list and wished him a nice day before hanging up. Total nonsense!

These calls come from scammers speaking with strong Indian accents. When you check [#][#]telephonesuk[###]/exchanges.htm and look up 0121-678, you’ll see that this exchange isn’t genuine. The real ones get listed there. It looks like they’ve made up a local number to pretend it’s their own. On some phones, the call even shows as international. Right after that, I got a call from 01922 304925. Walsall numbers starting with 3 had 5 digits and were replaced in the 1990s by 6-digit ones that don’t begin with a 3. So, this number seems fake as well.

Got quite a few calls these last few days. One was from a woman claiming her name was Tracey and said she was calling from the BBC. I asked her to say it again, which she did, but when I wanted to know which department she was from, she just dropped the call. Then there were two calls on the same day where nobody answered, and another time, all I got was a quick "goodbye". Just got yet another one with the same rubbish chat.

Got two calls this evening - missed one and answered the other, but the connection was really bad. The woman on the phone said she was calling from BDC and told me the government was offering grants to cover the cost of replacing boilers that are 4 or 5 years old, including installation at no charge. I haven’t seen anything about this scheme before, so I told her I’d check with my current provider and then ended the call. Probably safer to just steer clear of these sorts of calls :)

First ring I picked up and could hear someone but they weren’t replying when I spoke, then they just hung up. Second call, “this is xxxx from abc” (couldn't quite catch the name because of the thick accent) "I'm calling to tell you about a govt scheme for free boilers". I've had this call a few times from different numbers and I know we don't meet the criteria (if the scheme's even real). I'd say just block it out, unless you’re actually interested in that “free boiler” thing.
