01248209454 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 01248209454 👆 is reported as a nuisance caller frequently changing numbers to evade blocking. The callers impersonate the Telephone Preference Service (TPS), attempting to obtain personal and financial details under false pretences. They often ask for names, addresses, debit card expiry dates, and threaten to cancel existing services if information is withheld. Calls typically come from a foreign-sounding individual, involve silence or abrupt hang-ups once challenged, and no voicemail messages are left. Many recipients identify the calls as scam attempts and strongly advise blocking the number immediately. Despite TPS registration, unwanted calls persist, indicating these are deceptive practices designed to exploit trust in official services. Vigilance and refusal to share personal data are recommended to avoid falling victim to this scam.

7 yearsThey called me again, but this time the number was different, which makes it really annoying to block them. As expected, they tried to ask for my card information. I had a few choice words ready for them, but they ended the call before I could say anything. Watch out for these scammers!7 yearsGot a call this morning from some bloke saying he was from BT, going on about pesky nuisance calls. I told him, "You've got one right now," and just hung up on him! Gotcha!7 yearsCalled me from 01248209454, but as soon as BT Call Protect kicked in, they just hung up. No announcement or voicemail left at all. Definitely seemed like a scam, all the usual red flags there.BT Call Protect7 yearsGot calls all day from someone saying they're with that telephone preference thing. I looked it up and realised it's nothing I'd signed up for, so it just seemed like a sneaky trick. They try to sound trustworthy cause scammers usually hate that kind of registry, right? Anyway, they rang us like eight times and not once left a voicemail. Pretty fishy if you ask me.TPS7 yearsI picked up the phone and some bloke with a foreign accent was asking for my husband, then suddenly wanted to speak to me. I just replied with, "Who’s this then?" He tried saying his name was "Steve" and that he was calling from TPS. I didn’t hang about, just slammed the phone down. From what I know, TPS never ring you up directly. I’m on their list already, so how come I’m still getting calls like this? It’s proper annoying!SteveTPS7 yearsThey said they were from a call blocking company.7 yearsSomebody rang up saying they were from the TPS. I was like, “So you’re telling me I’m getting a call about not getting any more calls?” The lady, who sounded like she wasn’t local, actually agreed! Then she wanted me to give my address, but I told her she had the wrong person. After that she just said sorry and hung up. Definitely gonna block that number. Seems like another one of those scams.Telephone Preference Service7 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were with TPS. They told me i had to confirm my info to improve the call blocking service. Wouldn’t send me anything in writing or let me check their number online. They even said if i didn’t cooperate, they’d cancel the TPS service i already had!Telephone Preference Service7 yearsEven though the area code looked like it was from Wales, my phone treated it like an international call so I didn’t pick up. That’s two numbers today I’ve had to block already!Wales7 yearsBased on what people have said here, it might be risky but has showed up as Harassment on my phone. I haven't actually talked to the person yet but since Monday they've called me about 8 times and just wanted to check before I block them. After reading the comments, I’ll probably block them anyway. Definitely not giving in though, cheers to everyone who shared their experience.7 yearsNo one spoke when I answered. It was just dead silent on the other end. Very strange.7 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be the telephone preference service. They wanted to know if I was still receiving annoying calls. When I told them yes, they asked if I was younger than 70.Telephone Preference Service7 yearsGot four missed calls from these lot while I was out, but they never bothered to leave a message. Sorted - blocked their number!7 yearsEverytime I pick up, all I get is quiet once the voicemail starts.7 yearsGot two quiet calls today, no one spoke. I've gone ahead and blocked the number so it doesn't ring again.7 yearsThis number has rung me up twice within the space of an hour. I picked up the phone, but the caller just dropped the line. Seriously, more measures have to be done to stop these annoying calls.7 yearssupposedly they're a service that blocks calls. shame the tps arent doing enough to keep these annoying calls away.Telephone Preference Service7 yearsThis number rang me twice today. I ignored the first call but picked up the second. A woman with an accent said she was from TPS. She asked me to verify my name and address before claiming I’d paid my phone bill via direct debit. Then she wanted me to give her my debit card expiry date, which I wasn’t comfortable with, so I refused. She got really annoyed, so I just hung up.TPS7 yearsI got a call but no voicemail, so I just blocked the number.7 yearsSomebody rang me saying they were from TPS and wanted my full address and name, telling me they’d been stopping nuisance calls to my phone for years.

Then they wanted the expiry date on my debit card to ‘renew the service’. I wasn’t about to give that out. After that, they tried to get my bank account number. I told them that info wasn’t something the TPS would ask for, and after that they just hung up. Guess they saw I wasn’t giving them any of it!Telephone Preference ServiceTPS7 yearsSaid they were some kinda call blocking company.Submit Your Own Report (01248 209454)
