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

I've received three calls from this number in the span of just two minutes! I firmly expressed my disinterest and warned them not to pursue this any further. It's just another nuisance of a cold caller, wasting folks' valuable time and potentially scamming the elderly.

Those absolute rotters managed to con my mum just yesterday (17 Feb). She recalled the dodgy phone call this evening (18 Feb) and mentioned it to me. I swiftly hopped onto the internet, checked a few sites, and then rang her bank to have her card frozen. She checked her account this morning and thankfully, there weren't any transactions, but I know it can take a bit for those withdrawals to pop up. Fingers crossed that the card block did the trick. We'll find out for sure tomorrow when she and my sister pop by the bank.

Beware of fraudsters; keep your personal information close to your chest!

I didn't receive any voicemail from this number. I tend to steer clear of calls from unknown sources; if it’s something significant, the caller ought to drop a message. If they fail to do that, I’m inclined to think it’s dodgy behaviour!

Inquiring about the recent downpours and flooding in our locality seems rather suspicious - it undoubtedly feels like a con to me.

I received a call from something claiming to be the Telephone Preference Service, mentioning that I have been inundated with calls from various call centres. They offered me a service for 55 pence a week that purportedly would put an end to all these nuisance calls. I've decided to pass on that.

I've been getting calls from this number quite a bit lately... seems to be like the one starting with 02034592067. Is there some sort of link between them? Just a heads up for everyone!

I received a call from this number, but since I was busy in the loo and couldn’t pick up, they simply hung up without bothering to leave a voicemail. I’m on the Telephone Preference Service, but honestly, what’s the point?

I received a call from someone who insisted he could eliminate nuisance calls for a fee each month. When I pointed out that he was, in fact, a nuisance caller himself, he promptly hung up on me! What’s happened to the Telephone Preference Service recently? The volume of annoying calls has surged, and I can only imagine the relentless barrage we’d face if we weren’t signed up!

I received a call from this number purporting to be from the Telephone Preference Service, claiming that for a monthly subscription, they could halt all those pesky nuisance calls. It makes one wonder, why on earth can't they just do this without charging? Sounds suspiciously like a potential scam to me!

This number won’t stop ringing! Despite having requested on two separate occasions to have my details taken out of their records, they still persist. The sales representatives are incredibly pushy and a bit unpleasant. I’ve taken to simply hanging up since I don’t have the patience to engage in pointless conversation with them.

While I was busy at work, this chap (seemed like a bloke) rang my wife, claiming to represent the Privacy Commission. He insisted on chatting with the individual responsible for the landline bill. I must say, his manner came across as rather unsettling, which obviously distressed my wife. She promptly reached out to me to relay the entire ordeal, leading me to get in touch with you folks. Cheers for your help.

A constant irritation, isn't it? These callers and their call centres really need to be put in their place!

I received a call from this number earlier today, on the 20th of January, 2014, at precisely 13:27. They claimed they were reaching out to talk about preventing nuisance calls. However, when I pressed them for additional information, they promptly hung up.

I received a similar phone call earlier today - could it be a scam?

He referred to himself as part of the "telephone preference" scheme and attempted to peddle a service for £1.75 per month, claiming it could prevent calls like his. Absolute rubbish - just a dodgy scheme!
