I've been getting calls repeatedly, but there's nobody on the other end. It's becoming rather tedious. I've decided to go for the BT quiet line service to put an end to this nuisance!

Received a call from that number around a quarter past one. They didn't leave a message this time, but they have done so on numerous occasions in the past. We’ve taken to ignoring the phone these days unless we recognise the voice on the other end.

I received yet another call from what I suspect is the Credit Advice Bureau or some similar outfit. This time it was a woman on the line instead of a man. They left a message with an obscure number and urged us to press 1 to proceed, yet when I reached the end of the recording, the call simply disconnected without any prompt. It’s incredibly frustrating to be bombarded with these unnecessary calls at my residence. My business has been operational only since November last year, so it’s baffling why they would target us with these random dial-outs. The numbers that cropped up in their communications were 0151 355 3509 and 8640-whoever finds this information useful is welcome to it. I can't help but wonder if they’re just casting a wide net over specific regional codes.

I just received a call from this number, and having seen the previous comments, I doubt I’ll be calling back anytime soon!

We’re heading out shortly after receiving a call from this number. It might possibly belong to the UK's Debt Information Line, though!

I received a call from this number, but just as I was about to answer, my answerphone was about to activate. When I eventually lifted the receiver, there was an eerie silence and then the call ended abruptly. I haven’t bothered to return the call, as I decided to check this site beforehand.

We decided to return the call to uncover the identity of the previous caller. Upon dialling back, we were met with an automated message from UK Debt Control, claiming that our number would be removed from their system if we hung up promptly after the tone. Curiously, they cut off the line right after that tone sounded!

I didn’t pick up the call, but I used the 1471 service to find out who it was. It appears they’ve taken to calling us around half two each afternoon without fail. Honestly, it’s becoming quite vexing.

We were in the middle of an important conversation when this number rang us at 10:55 this morning, as indicated by the 1471 service. It's infuriating how some individuals can be so inconsiderate.

I received a rather cryptic message that was left on my answering machine. After some digging, I stumbled across this site while trying to identify the mysterious calls I’d been getting. Quite impressive, I must say! I’m far too busy to listen to the entire recording, and we’re not particularly keen on any automated voices offering unsolicited assistance, so I think I’ll just carry on. Cheers!

I'm absolutely fed up with these incessant calls! I've tried reaching out to them, begging them to remove my details from their directory. It feels pointless, to be honest. If everyone were to lodge a complaint with Ofcom about this number, maybe they'd take some action. Here's hoping for some relief soon!

I've been receiving calls from this number repeatedly, and honestly, it's rather puzzling. We don't have a clue who's behind it, and it certainly strikes me as a touch dubious.

I recently received a call from this number on my Manx Telecom line-living on the Isle of Man, you see. I reckon it should be a piece of cake for BT and MT users to block bothersome numbers at no cost. Just punch in the number, or maybe even the last one that rang me, and then follow it up with a straightforward button combo. Why is that such a challenging concept?

I received a call from this number and, to be honest, I didn’t feel inclined to return it after perusing the comment shared earlier.

I just received a call from this number... Apparently, there's some opportunity to have all our bills covered for a week if we simply press five and answer a few questions. Sounded a bit dodgy to me, so we decided to hang up, especially since we weren't exactly sure what would happen when we pressed five!

I've been getting the same annoying call about our utility bills being settled. This company seems to be the culprit behind a slew of blank messages on our answering machine. I'm really wishing they would just leave me be, and I genuinely want to find out who shared our number with them.

Just like others have mentioned, a quick check with 1471 revealed that the number 01249848170 is responsible for this persistent ringing. It’s become quite annoying and needs to be dealt with. I’m keen to find out who’s behind this racket so I can bombard them with messages and calls to fill up their voicemail! We were under the impression that this kind of marketing was against the law.
