Received a call from this number, and it's one we can't recognise.

I got called by this number thrice within just a couple of minutes. I was pretty firm with them, telling them I wasn’t interested and not to keep pushing. Looks like just another annoying telemarketer trying to scam older folks and waste everyone’s time.

Those scammers managed to trick my mum just yesterday (17 Feb). She told me about the phone call from some 'telephone service' tonight (18 Feb). I quickly did a bit of digging on here and another site, then phoned her bank to freeze her card. When she checked this morning, nothing had been taken yet, but sometimes it takes a while for the transactions to show up. Fingers crossed the card block was done early enough. My sister and mum are going to the bank tomorrow to get everything sorted.

Never trust scammers with your info, they’ll just use it against you.

If I don’t know the number, I just let it ring and don’t pick up. They can leave a message if it’s something important. When there’s no message waiting, I usually figure it’s just some kind of scam.

Got a call just now asking if we’ve had lots of rain or any floods nearby - seemed like a total scam to me.

Someone rang saying it was the telephone preference service, mentioned I’ve been getting loads of calls from call centres lately. They said for just 55p a week, they’d put me on a list to block all those calls. I told them no thanks.

I keep getting calls from them, just like this number 02034592067. Anyone else noticed a link? Watch out!

Got a call while I was in the loo, didn’t pick up and they just dropped the call without leaving any voicemail. I’m on the TPS list, so what’s the point really?

This guy said he could help block annoying calls if I paid him monthly, but as soon as I told him he was one of those annoying calls himself, he just hung up on me. Seriously, what's going on with the TPS these days? We're getting so many calls now, I can't imagine how bad it'd be if we weren't signed up.

Got a phone call from this number claiming they represented the telephone preference service. They said if I paid a monthly charge, they could block all the annoying calls I get. Seems odd tho, why wouldn’t they just stop the calls for free? Feels a bit like a scam to me.

They keep ringing me up, even after I’ve told them twice to take my number off their list. The sales rep on the other end was pretty pushy and quite impolite too. I usually just end the call straight away since I have no interest in wasting time chatting with them.

While I was out at work, this bloke called my wife claiming to be from some Privacy Commission and asked to talk to whoever handles the landline bill. His voice was really weird and made my wife feel uneasy. She rang me straight away to tell me what had gone down, which is why I decided to get in touch with you guys. Cheers.

These call centres are driving me mad, they just won’t quit! Someone really needs to put an end to this constant pestering!

Got a call from this number today, 20th Jan 2014 at about 1.27pm. They were trying to talk about blocking spam calls but when I asked for some more info, they just hung up on me. Bit strange really.

Got a call just like that earlier - think it’s a scam?

A bloke rang me claiming he was from "telephone preference" and was trying to get me to buy some box for £1.75 a month that supposedly stops annoying calls like his. Total spam, probably a scam.
