01217095488 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01217095488 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance caller linked to fraudulent accident claim scams. Callers, often with South Asian accents and call centre backgrounds, repeatedly contact individuals - including those registered on the Telephone Preference Service - and pressure them with intrusive questions about supposed car accidents never experienced. Many recipients report silence on answering, abrupt hang-ups when challenged, or abusive language. The number frequently calls multiple times daily, targeting both personal and business lines, causing distress especially to vulnerable people. Attempts to trace or call back typically yield invalid or unrecognised numbers. These calls are widely viewed as scams aiming to obtain personal data or provoke responses. Authorities and telecom providers are urged to take stronger action to curb this harassment and protect consumers.

Got a call from them today (24/02/2017) around 5:50pm. It was an Asian guy asking me to answer security questions before explaining the reason for the call. I told him I wouldn’t share any info since I don’t know who he is. I’m registered with TPS and reminded him I shouldn’t be getting unsolicited calls. He just ended the call after that.

0121 8033168 rang me saying they needed to check info about a car crash I was involved in. When I asked what accident they were talking about (I never had one), they just ended the call. Looks like they’re just guessing and hoping someone will fall for it.

Got a call from some accident support line saying I’d been in a crash, which I hadn’t. Told them I’m on the TPS and they just dropped the call. The person on the other end spoke really bad English and sounded like they were working in a call centre.

Keep getting calls from some accident claims service, even after I've told them loads of times to take me off their list & I'm on the TPS register. They just don't seem to care! Some days they ring me like 3 or 4 times, really get on my nerves.

I got a call at 10.02am on Thursday 22nd December. When I answered, there was loads of background noise, but no one spoke. I called back using hands-free, but the number wasn’t recognised. Something similar happened on 8th December too. An Asian woman said 'it’s about your computer'. I asked ‘what about it?’ and she just repeated ‘it’s about your computer’. I hung up. The number had a Manchester area code but the last five digits were 59279, which isn’t valid. Seems like all these are just scams to me.

Received a call on 22/12/16 at about 10:40 from someone saying they're from Aviva Insurance asking about an accident. The caller kept asking loads of personal info, so I told them I wasn’t comfortable and that they should already have the details on file. I asked for a callback number and then the guy started swearing at me! I ended the call straight away. The caller was a male, sounded Asian. Since then, this number has been ringing the whole office non-stop.

I picked up the phone and there was nothing but silence. After a moment, I said, ‘Is someone there?’ A voice with a Brummie accent just said ‘Hello’ and then hung up. From what others are saying, this seems like a nuisance call that’s been going about a lot recently. Really annoying. They should find out who it is and lock ’em up.

I honestly can’t deal with this caller anymore. They keep ringing me up about some accident they reckon I was involved in, which is just not true. I’ve told them time after time to remove my number since I’ve never had any accident, and I’m not interested in any kind of claim. Yet, they just don’t listen and keep buzzing me. I try to ignore the phone when they call, but they just won’t give up. Really need some advice on how to stop this!

Someone rang my work number and it wasnt by mistake. This guy, sounded like he was Asian, started saying he "wanted my ass" or something mad like that. I just said alright then. He asked when, so I said maybe a week on Friday. Then he tried to get my mobile number and I just cut the call. Weird times!

Just got a call on my landline right before 5pm. It was one of those 'Have you been in an accident?' calls. My dad answered 'YEEESSSS' to every question, and then the bloke just said 'well f##k you' and hung up.

Today (16/12/21) at around 1:01pm, this number rang me, but I didn't answer even though I was just by the phone. It left a voicemail that was a bit strange. There wasn’t any clear words, just some faint background noise that sounded like an office, then it went silent. After a moment, I heard a single dial tone and then a male automated voice came on saying the system was having technical issues and to try again later.

Got a call from a guy with an Asian accent, claiming something about a recent car crash I was involved in. I asked him where he got my info from, and he said 'Aviva'. When I pushed for more details, he just told me to 'f*** off Sir'. I called the number back to check it out, but they said it wasn’t a valid contact. Honestly, this sounds like a scam and should definitely be looked into!

This number kept calling four different office lines about a dozen times asking about an accident I supposedly had (which I definitely didn’t). I spoke to a woman with an Indian accent and told her she had the wrong person since I’d actually died in the last accident I had. There was a silent moment before she simply said “Oh” and ended the call. I enjoy messing around with these callers! :)

When I picked up, there was total silence. 1471 says its this number. Its really frustrating as I’m finding it hard to get to the phone recently - just had a hip surgery. Companies who do silent calls like this should be fined at least £100 for each person they annoy.

Got a call on my unlisted landline, which is also TPS protected, from a man claiming to represent the Accident Advice Centre. I cut the call straight away. The caller ID showed 'international,' but when I checked with 1471, it showed a Birmingham number, 0121 709 5488. Tried ringing it back but the automated message said the number was invalid. Smells like a scam if you ask me.

Round six now, they've been ringing my home phone non-stop for a couple of weeks. I've properly lost it and told him to remove my number or I'd be reporting them for harassment. He told me to calm down, so I just shouted even louder for him to bugger off. Felt pretty good, but honestly, it's been so frustrating.

Who exactly are these folks that’ve got nothing better to do than bother us? We’ve only had one call so far and they just hung up as soon as my husband picked up. We’re already on the TPS but might have to register again. Perhaps they ought to be reported to Watchdog or something.
