01253286287 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01253286287 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance and scam caller, often using prerecorded or silent calls with poor English and aggressive delivery. Callers claim to be from lifestyle or market research companies and try to extract personal information, frequently using names of previous residents. Many recipients are on the Telephone Preference Service (TPS) or are ex-directory, yet calls keep coming, often from international numbers or spoofed UK numbers. The calls typically end abruptly when answered or become hostile if challenged. Users strongly advise not to engage, blocking the number and recommending call-blocking services to reduce harassment. The volume and relentlessness of these calls cause distress, raising concerns over inadequate government regulation and enforcement.

My phone showed this as an "International" call, which explains how they managed to bypass the do not call list. I've blocked the number now after reading the reviews here. Appreciate the help from this site, cheers!

Got a random call on my home phone around 10:30 in the morning on the 16th of December. The person on the other end just stayed silent. I ended up just hanging up as it was a waste of time. My phone number is on the TPS list, but apparently that doesn’t stop these annoying calls.

Im registered with the TPS so i really dont understand why i keep gettin calls from these scammers. Surely its up to the Government to sort this out but they just let it keep happening. Makes you wonder why these telemarketing firms seem to have so much pull with the government. Who's really gaining from it all?

My house phone gets calls from them almost daily at all sorts of times. When I answer, there’s this weird crackly sound and then about 10 seconds of quiet. They say something like “hello, is so-and-so there?” I just say no. After that, it’s silent again for a few seconds before they just hang up. I asked them to stop calling and remove my number, but they refused.

Got a call from an Asian lady asking if I was getting loads of annoying calls lately. Said no I wasn’t, then she wanted me to do some survey. I said I was busy and ended the call. After that, I got a bunch of nuisance calls where they just ring and hang up. Honestly, I wish there was a way to stop these awful calls. I can’t imagine how terrifying it must be for folks who live alone.

When I picked up, there was silence on the other end; pretty typical for scam calls nowadays. I’m signed up with the TPS, but it doesn’t seem to help much, feels like a pointless hassle. My number’s also ex-directory, so it’s either been passed around or these scammers are just guessing numbers, hoping to catch someone. Either way, it’s a right pain.

Woke up early this morning cause my phone was ringing at like six. By the time I grabbed it, the call had already ended. It freaked me out a bit since no one calls that early unless something's wrong in the family. Seriously, these callers need to be banned.

This number rang my TPS registered phone two times earlier today. Judging by the other reviews, it looks like it’s just another annoying cold caller.

This number keeps calling me like two times every single day and I just ignore it most times. But today, it woke me up at 6.07 in the morning! I was still in bed upstairs, had to rush down just to pick up, but it went straight to voicemail. Honestly, it was really unsettling cause when my phone rings that early, it’s usually something serious. Someone really needs to put an end to this! Would it be a good idea to report them to the police?

This number rang me a couple times today. Both times I told them I was the cleaner and asked if I could take a message, then tried to get their name, number, and why they were calling. Such a hassle!

Just got a call from a woman with an Indian accent, but I couldn’t catch what she was saying. I reckon she was trying to reach another person. When I asked who it was, she hung up straight away.

When I pick up, theres just silence then a clicking sound and it hangs up. I reckon its cos someone else picked up first - they probably ring loads of numbers at the same time and whoever answers fastest they try to talk to. Thats why there’s so many empty calls, they only wanna scam you if they get through to a person. When they do chat, they always have the wrong details and try to get the right info to fix their records! Most calls on my landline are scams, usually from overseas, and I’m fed up with it. But I worry some folks might actually fall for it.

Got a call and had a hard time making out what the guy was saying cause of his thick Indian accent. He said he was from some company called Light Research doing a consumer survey and kept telling me he wasn’t trying to sell anything. Before I hung up on him I asked what the survey was about and he said welfare stuff. These dodgy calls are really frustrating especially when my number’s meant to be unlisted.

Heaps of muttering in the background, but no-one really said anything proper. Pretty obvious it was some sketchy call centre.

Got a call from a guy with an Indian accent who seemed to know my name. He asked if I could answer some quick questions. I told him I was busy, but he then claimed to be from Creative Consumer and said it’d just take a minute. I agreed to continue, but right after that, the line started making this weird buzzing sound and then he just hung up without saying anything else. It left me a bit worried, like maybe he’d messed with my phone somehow remotely or something.

I picked up the phone and was immediately met with loads of giggling and loud squealing. Then a woman with an Asian accent began speaking really quickly. She used my first name without asking if it was alright. I couldn’t make out a single thing she was saying and told her I wasn’t interested in whatever she was offering before ending the call.

This number gave me a ring earlier tonight. A bloke with an Indian accent asked straight away for me by name, claiming he was from consumer services and had a few questions. I pointed out that my number is signed up with the telephone preference service, so he shouldn't be calling. I also told him to remove me from his calling list. He flat out said no, so I warned I'd report him to the TPS and that the firm he'd be working for could get fined for it...

Caller had an Asian accent. He got a bit pushy when I didn’t go along with him. I teased him a little, so he’ll likely keep ringing. Looking forward to giving him a right earful next time. Best to block if you can.

Got a call from some Indian bloke claiming it was a "market survey". I asked if it was a sales pitch and he started shouting racist insults, calling me a "white b*****d". Really says a lot about them. When is this kinda behaviour gonna be illegal? Blocked the number straight away.

It was just a robotic “goodbye”. Better to just block it.

Picked up the phone earlier but just got silence, line dropped right after. Didn’t know the number so looked it up here. Blocked it now, along with loads more - must be over 40 by now. Really wondering when they'll actually shut these call centres down.

So this number called my house, and when my partner picked up, a woman was asking for me by name but wouldn't say why. As soon as I walked in, he passed the phone to me, but honestly, I couldn't understand what she was trying to say, so I just ended the call.

Sounds like one of those telesales scams, really bad English and they were asking for someone who had this number ages ago. They quickly ended the call when they found out that person isn’t here anymore.

They wanted my take on something, but when I said no, they weren’t happy. Couldn't even explain how opinion polls differ from market research, and then claimed market research was just sales. Ended up hanging up on me - pretty much sums it up!

It showed up as an international number but sounded like a British lady on the other end from some call centre. I just kept quiet and they ended the call.
