I think this number might have been recycled! It rang on my phone but I didn’t pick up since it wasn’t saved in my contacts.

On 16/04/19 they rang me a few times but never left any voicemail. I didn’t pick up as I didn’t know the number.

If I get a call from a number I don't know and there’s no voicemail left, I just block it straight away. I never bother answering those anymore, just a waste of time.

Got a call on my home phone but no voicemail was left, thank goodness for caller ID! I just don’t bother picking up unless I recognise the number anymore. Best thing ever.

Got a robo voice telling me my internet was hacked and I needed to hit 1 right away to talk with BT tech support. Definitely a scam call.

Yesterday afternoon this number rang me about five times, thankfully I didn’t pick up and just noticed it in my missed calls. I’d honestly suggest using BT phones like we do, they let you block unknown numbers unless people identify themselves first - and even then you can still block that number so they won’t be able to bother you again. 01248209494

Totally sketchy people pretending to be TPS, don't trust them at all. Best thing to do is block the caller and never share your details with these fakes.

Somebody called saying they were from the Telephone Preference Service, but it was obvious they weren’t. When I told them they were actually the annoying callers they say they prevent, they didn’t take it well.

They claim to be from the TPS but ask for someone who doesn’t live here at all. It’s just a trick to get you to ‘confirm your details’ for the number they called. Definitely a SCAM!

Tried ringing the landline round 6:30, but as soon as I heard that awkward silence before they launched into their usual script, I just ended the call. After reading what's been shared here, I'm really pleased I didn't actually chat with them.

Got two calls today on my landline from a blocked number, so I just went ahead and blocked it myself.

This number has called me 9 times already today, and they never even leave a voicemail. It's getting super annoying. I’m just gonna block it now.

Received several calls in quick succession, all within a single hour. Each time it was a woman on the line, but as soon as I started to ask who was calling, she hung up. Quite odd, really!

Got a call from someone claiming to be from Telephone Preference MANAGEMENT, but it was definitely a SCAM. The caller had a strong Indian accent, nothing like a Bangor one! Really pushy and annoying too.

Got a call from someone who claimed to be from TPS, but they actually knew my name! I asked who was calling and straight away told them I didn’t want any unsolicited calls. Pretty sure it was a scam, but I wasn’t bothered to check further. I reckon it’s connected to an earlier call I got, which hung up as soon as my answer machine kicked in. Best advice: just don’t pick up or hang on quick if you do.

Got called four times today from this number, kept ringing but no message left when I answered. Proper annoying!

This number kept calling me 6 times throughout the day. I didn’t pick up any of the calls, and when I checked, there was no message left. Seriously feels like harassment.

Got a call from someone with an Indian accent claiming they were with the TPS. Definitely sounded like a scam to me.

I’ve had this number ring me about 10 times just today. I’ve ignored it because of what folks have said here - really frustrating! We’re on the TPS, but it doesn’t seem to stop them at all. Seriously, they should do something about this.

Im curious who rang me as they never leave a message on my answerphone 01248209494.

They rung me up about five times but never left any message. Feels like a scam to me.

They said it was some kind of phone preference thing, but honestly it felt like they were just phishing under the name of verifying info. I'd steer well clear of them!

Those scammers are a total nightmare, seriously stay clear of them. Avoid at all costs!

Been getting calls all day from the same number but never any noise or words when I pick up. So weird.

Total scam! If you pick up, they just hang up straight away. And when you don't answer, they never bother to leave a message. Dodgy behaviour for sure.

This number has been calling me loads, claiming to be from the telephone preference service but really just trying to get my bank info. I usually play along to mess about and annoy them since they're doing the same to me. I've also seen calls from 01248 254299. Sometimes when I answer, no one speaks - pretty sure a robot's doing some of the calling too.

Just like a few others here, I got a call from a woman with an Asian accent claiming she was from the telephone preference service. She asked if I wanted to block nuisance calls and if she could update my info. She even knew my address, then started talking about how I pay my phone bill by direct debit. Next, she mentioned my visa debit card supposedly had an expiry from 2019. I quickly said I never share bank details over the phone and ended the call. Be careful out there!

Over the past week, I’ve received a few calls from different 01248 numbers I didn’t recognise. I never pick up if it’s not someone I know, and none of them have left a message. Some of those 01248 numbers have been flagged as scam calls before, so I reckon these might be dodgy as well.
7 years
the call was pretty brief, didn't really get into much conversation. i'm thinking it's one of those annoying sales calls that ring numbers on the tps list trying to push a call screening device. kinda funny, an unwelcome call trying to sell something that blocks unwanted calls.

This was definitely a scam, pretending to be the telephone preference service. When I mentioned my doubts, she swore at me for wasting her time. Be careful and don’t share any details with them!
