8 yearsThey keep calling over and over again, just like others have mentioned. Definitely scammers!8 yearsI've just had a rather alarming call from someone claiming to be from the Telephone Preference Service. They proceeded to ask whether I was still getting those pesky nuisance calls. To my dismay, they already had my name and address on hand, which set off my internal alarm bells. Then, the caller mentioned that my bank card was due to expire in 2018, which struck me as oddly unacceptable. I reminded her that the TPS is a free service and I’ve never disclosed any card details while registering. She became rather confrontational, suggesting I must have forgotten. At that point, I decided it was best to hang up and I've reported the incident to Action Fraud.Telephone Preference ServiceTPSAction Fraud8 yearsI've had this number call me loads of times now. It just buzzes a few times and then goes straight to voicemail, but as soon as it picks up, the caller hangs up. Feels really dodgy to me. Honestly, getting constant calls like this is quite annoying and stressful. Probably best to ignore if you get a call from here.8 yearsI had like five calls in a single day where they just went quiet as soon as I picked up, so I ended up reporting them to OFCOM. Today, I actually answered, and it was a call centre from India claiming to be from the Telephone Preference Management Service. They said they could help me stop unwanted calls even from overseas numbers now. I told the guy I’d already reported their company to Ofcom and that I’d be reporting them to Action Fraud next, then I hung up straight away. Sounds like there’s a few of these dodgy scam groups out there.OFCOMIndiaTelephone Preference Management ServiceAction Fraud8 yearsGot loads of calls logged but my phone didn’t actually ring once! Tried ringing the number back but apparently it’s not recognised. Guess I’ll have to block it now.8 yearsThis number keeps calling me several times each day, starting at 7 in the morning, and that includes Saturdays! It’s really beginning to get on my nerves.8 yearsGot a few rings, then it dropped me into a rubbish busy line. Hung up straight away after telling them "you don’t have my permission".8 yearsReceived a call on the 16th of March, 2008. The chap on the other end was rather confrontational when I inquired about the reason for his call. He claimed to be from a telephone service aimed at curbing PPI calls. Then, rather oddly, he proceeded to request my card details. I firmly declined to divulge any banking information and ended the conversation abruptly.8 yearsAnswered the phone but no one spoke for around ten seconds, then the line just cut off. Just another irritating call.8 yearsIt seems I've been inundated with unwanted calls today, with the first one startlingly arriving at 7:38 in the morning! How on earth do these pesky telemarketers get my number? They really ought to have better systems in place to respect our preferences!8 yearsI keep receiving daily calls, and when I pick up, they just disconnect! I had one call from a chap claiming to be "James," allegedly representing the telephone preference service, but he seemed utterly lost for words. Perhaps it was his inaugural day in the scam world? Just a heads up, the telephone preference service is completely free and would never request your card information!James8 yearsGot a call from what looked like a Bognor Regis number, and they said they were with the TPS. Same old story, just wasting time as always. I’m going to block it now.TPSBognor Regis8 yearsI never pick up this number unless I’m sure who it is. It rings all day and night, 24/7 it seems. But I’m not in the habit of answering unknown callers.8 yearsBeen getting calls ringing 3 times and as soon as I pick up they just hang up, no words at all. Drives me mad!8 yearsAnswered the call but there was complete silence, just about 20 or 30 seconds, then it ended. Tried calling back to find out who it was, but the number wasn’t registered. I honestly can’t stand these quiet calls where no one even talks when you pick up.8 yearsI saw the number but didn’t answer since it looked unfamiliar. Then, strangely, the same person rang me three times from about 1.31 pm to 2.34 pm.8 yearsI picked up at 10:15 but nothing was said for about 10 seconds. Then a voice with an Indian accent said they were from the TPS and started asking for my personal info. I ended the call straight away.TPS8 yearsThis person said they were from TPS, but I’m pretty sure they weren’t! They kept asking if I was still bothered by pest calls.Telephone Preference Service8 yearsGot a call from a guy called James, sounded like he had a strong Indian accent. He said he was ringing from the TPS, but there was that awkward lag after I picked up before he answered, so I’m guessing it was a call centre. I’ve blocked the number now and honestly hope they don’t bother me again. It’s ridiculous for them to pretend they’re with the TPS - that’s just shameless! You’d think the TPS would have some legal way to shut down this nonsense, because it really tarnishes their reputation.TPS8 yearsI'm getting calls from them like every few hours, like clockwork. I picked up once curious to find out who it was, but nobody spoke on the other end. I've tried blocking them, but they keep ringing from different numbers starting with 01245. It's pretty annoying!8 yearsThis number keeps popping up, got called 4 times within 2 days and also had a couple from some 02394 Portsmouth number too. It feels like an auto dialler cos it just rings a few times then stops. Reckon these scammers have figured out how to sneak past BT call protect by faking numbers. Didn't expect them to get round it that quick! Anyway, it's blocked now.PortsmouthBT8 yearsGot two calls again today, I’m so fed up with these. This week alone I’ve got more than 20 annoying calls from random numbers. Honestly, really glad I have call guard to block them.8 yearsI got a call like this at about 7:43 in the morning too, and when I picked up, there was just silence. These calls keep coming every few days, and it's really starting to annoy me. I’ll block the number this time, but it often changes, so it’s not always from the same one.8 yearsGot a call from someone asking for a person with a surname I had never heard before. Let them know they’d reached the wrong number. Definitely going to block that number now.8 yearsI got a call and it was completely silent, but you could hear people talking faintly like a call centre in the background. Pretty strange and a bit annoying.8 yearsI received a call from an international number that seemed a bit dodgy. The line dropped, and shortly after, I was contacted again from the number mentioned above. The caller claimed to be from telephone preference management, promising to eliminate unwanted calls. They inquired about how I settled my phone bill, and I mentioned direct debit. When they probed for the expiry date on my Visa card, I had to admit I wasn't sure. They insisted I fetch my card to provide that info, which raised my suspicions, so I promptly ended the conversation. Apparently, they needed the Visa details for ‘biometric verification’! Quite the shady operation, if you ask me!8 yearsI'm from Devon and just got a ring from 01243881593 about an hour back. No voicemail or anything left. Been flooded with dodgy calls lately, honestly starting to consider contacting my MP about how phone systems are getting misused. Oh, and yeah, I'm on the TPS list already.DevonTelephone Preference ServiceSubmit Your Own Report (01243 881593)
