01228746547 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01228746547 👆 is reported as a persistent scam operation posing as legitimate companies like "Telephone Preference Management" or "Windows Customer Service," often using common British names but speaking with distinct accents from the Indian subcontinent. Callers frequently pressure for personal bank details under the guise of protecting call-blocking services or verifying account info. The numbers appear local but are international forwards, causing multiple calls in a short span, sometimes over a dozen in a week. They falsely claim to represent major providers or departments and hang up when questioned. Recipients have confirmed no connection with official companies like BT or Microsoft. The general consensus among users is to categorically ignore and block these nuisance calls.

I got a call from 01228 248759 today but have no clue who they are or why they rang me. Anyone else had a call from this number?

Sounds like a scam, the number looks dodgy to me.

No reply from them - just like others have said, I've gone ahead and blocked the number. Same goes for 01228745649 and 01228748547 as well.

Got a call from a bloke with an asian accent saying he was from Windows Support or something about licensing my PC. He said he was calling from 21 Station Road, Cambridge - which I know is where Microsoft Research is based. When I asked him to clarify which company he was really with, he just ended the call. Definitely a scam, best to just hang up straight away.

Total scam alert, always dodging TPS lists!

Got a call supposedly from the 'Telephone Preference Service' - total scam! They tried to pressure me into getting my bank card or cheque book to 'verify' stuff. They’ve rang me a few times today from numbers that look alike. Most of the info they mentioned was just made up to sound legit, apart from my name and address, which is obvious stuff anyway. They guessed things like 'payment by direct debit' and even said my card expired years ago! Seriously, watch out and don’t fall for it, even if it’s just for £21.99!

Not sure who it was, but when I picked up they just hung up straightaway. They also gave me a ring today from 01228746547.

Why do they always talk over me the moment I pick up? It’s so frustrating when you finally get to the phone and they won’t even let you say a word. Just let me answer first, please!

I rang BT to see if this number was connected to them, but they told me it isn’t linked to their services at all. Total SCAMMERS, watch out!

Yesterday, I got a total of 11 calls from the number 01225476547. Today, they rang me twice more from the same number, then switched to 01228745649. It's a bit suspicious since the calls appear to be from abroad and only get blocked now and then. Feels like they're just bogus calls.

Got a call from a bloke with an Indian accent saying he was with 'Telephone Preference Management'. When I asked if he was ringing from Virgin since my service is with BT, he insisted they worked for all networks. Then he started saying it was my parents' phone line and even claimed my mum was the account holder, but it's actually my dad. He mentioned he’d ring again later to chat with them, but I told him not to waste his time! Total SCAM!
