I've received several calls from this number today, as well as in the past. The caller appears to be a man.

My elderly father received a call from this number regarding halting pesky nuisance calls. Despite being registered with the Telephone Preference Service and being ex-directory, he is constantly bombarded by them. They requested his banking information, and although he declined, he did unfortunately provide them with his card number. He’s on the phone with the bank as we speak, and I’m absolutely livid… such despicable individuals. - caller: 01243885171

What a right kerfuffle! This lot had the cheek to call me about "unsolicited calls." So, I quipped, "You're ringing me about unsolicited calls?" Strangely, she insisted she wasn't making a cold call, but I hadn’t invited her to ring me, so it absolutely counted! I hung up, and wouldn’t you know it, she had the audacity to ring back three times in a row, blathering on as if the line had died! Excuse me? I already made it abundantly clear that I wasn’t interested! Isn’t there a reason we have the Telephone Preference Service? She continued to talk over me, so I promptly hung up once more. It took her long enough to grasp the hint! And yes, while she might simply be "doing her job," a little listening wouldn’t go amiss!

They keep ringing us regularly, but we never answer numbers we don’t recognise. Can anyone shed light on who it might be?

I received a call from this number at 17:45 on the 4th of March. When I picked up, there was silence on the other end. Very odd indeed!

I received a call from them, and they mentioned that for a small fee of £2 a month, they could manage those annoying nuisance calls for me. They were quite insistent on obtaining my bank details to arrange the payment.
