Reports on phone number 01226120985
4 yearsMy phone flagged this number as possibly dodgy.4 yearsI encountered a right dodgy character trying to swindle me out of my banking information! He rang up saying my credit card was nearing its expiration date and wanted my card details to sort out a renewal. Strangely, he had my full name to hand, but the kicker was, he kept mentioning a bank that isn’t even mine! What a cheek!8 yearsBeen noticing this number keep ringing my mum repeatedly, like 4 times within one hour. Luckily, she’s got that Truecall 4600 box from BT, so those spam calls get blocked before it even rings. Honestly, it’s the best gadget we got - we got one too because it works so well. I often have a quick look at her call list and it’s mad how many dodgy calls try to come through.8 yearsWhen I get a call like this, I just hit them with, "Why are you trying to rip people off?" or "Why not find an honest job instead?" Usually they just hang up pretty quick after that.8 yearsBEWARE - they claim to be from the Telephone Preference Service, mention your name and address, and say you pay your phone bill by direct debit. Then they try to get your bank details to "confirm" them, but really they just want to steal money from your account. Proper dodgy stuff - make sure you report this to Action Fraud.Telephone Preference ServiceAction Fraud8 yearsGot a call from that number five times today, answered it but no one replied.8 yearsGot a call from this number around 10:51 today but I just ignored it since I didn’t know who it was. When I checked my call log with 1471, the call wasn’t listed at all, only my previous call from the day before from a mate showed up. Not sure how that’s possible, but I usually never pick up calls from unknown numbers anyway.8 yearsGot two calls from them, both times they said they were with TPS!TPS8 yearsGot two calls within ten minutes but no one spoke when I picked up.8 yearsI got a call from someone saying they were with the telephone preference service, but it felt a bit off to me.Telephone Preference Service8 yearsThey keep calling but never leave a voicemail. I figure if it was something important, they'd say what it's about, so I just don't bother calling back.8 yearsThey keep ringing but never leave any message. Really annoying!8 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from a phone preference service, saying my free trial was finished and they needed my card info. I told him exactly what he could do with that service! They've been ringing me nonstop all day.8 yearsWatch out, this is definitely a scam! They’re just trying to get your bank info, don’t fall for it.8 yearsI asked him nicely to end the call but he just wouldn’t hang up! I explained I needed the phone for urgent calls, and he claimed his call was an emergency! When I asked what kind of emergency it was, he said something about a call blocking service. Told him again to get off the phone, but he still ignored me. I just left the handset down and had a read of my paper. Luckily, when I picked it up later, the dial tone was back. Can’t believe how stubborn he was. I’ll block the number, but like others have said, they just switch to a different one after a while.8 yearsEarlier today I got a call from someone pretending to be a free nuisance call blocking company (not from my phone provider). They said they were renewing my “subscription” and already had my postcode and knew I pay the phone bill by direct debit. They even mentioned a card that’s long expired and asked for the new expiry date. I asked why they wanted my card details if the service was supposed to be free, but they just went quiet, so I ended the call. After that, I dialled 1471 to find out their number.8 yearsGot these silent calls twice within half a day. Missed the first one as I was out, but still pretty annoying.8 yearsThis number is so annoying, just block it and be done with it, folks.8 yearsGot these quiet calls coming from the Barnsley area code - think they're using legit UK numbers as covers for dodgy stuff. I had to block the whole area code and even block all but the last three digits of the caller ID on my phone. It's like an endless game of cat and mouse with these muppets, honestly.BarnsleyUK8 yearsGot a call from 01226120985 and just told them straight up that they’re being a right nuisance.8 yearsI ended the call as soon as the voicemail picked up.8 yearsThis number has been ringing me a lot lately but no one ever picks up, they just hang up straight away. Got two calls from them today already, first one was at 7:20 in the morning on my day off which really annoyed me. If they ever do answer next time, I won't hold back on giving them a good telling off.8 yearsI tried ringin but nobody picked up. It’s a relief to read all these reviews now.8 yearsSomeone called claiming to be from the telephone preference service. How often do they actually bother to call?8 yearsDidnt pick up since I didnt know the number, but after reading the comments here, seems like its exactly what I thought.8 yearsgot a call from this number around lunchtime today, but all i got was silence. looks like it’s a pretty new number, probably only active for about a day. i guess they use fresh numbers to sneak past call blockers. though, it’s not always successful. actually, earlier i noticed another call came up that didn’t connect, and its number was close to one i’d already blocked before. so sometimes the blocking from bt does work and stops them!BT8 yearsI've been getting calls from the same caller who changes the last three digits every time, starting with 01226120 - . I never pick up since I don’t recognise the number, but I always end up blocking it. Every time they ring, the last few numbers switch, so I just keep adding the new variations to my block list.8 yearsI've had three calls this morning alone, with the first one ringing at 7:30am. Plus, they called me twice yesterday in the evening. Honestly, don’t waste your time picking up.8 yearsFor the past few days, they've been ringing me non-stop. Sometimes they just say goodbye, other times they say they're James from the Telephone Preference Service. When I told him most of the annoying calls I get come from him, he just hung up! And wouldn't you know, he’s called me another four times just this morning!JamesTelephone Preference Service8 yearsThey’ve rang me 5 times today already and all they do is just say goodbye. So annoying!Submit Your Own Report (01226 120985)
