They presented themselves as a market research firm, something along the lines of Customer Awareness. I suspect it's a bit dodgy, so best to tread carefully!

This number rang my elderly folks 18 times on Saturday 26/09/16 which is just harassment. Dad answered the first call but the person just hung up straight away. He ignored the other 17 calls and let them ring out, though some were only 10-15 minutes apart. I don’t get how this is allowed to go on - it’s putting a lot of stress on vulnerable people. What’s the point of these calls and why hasn’t Ofcom stepped in to stop it? My parents are already signed up to the nuisance call register but this still happens.

today this number kept ringing us nonstop, like five times in just an hour! me and my partner aren't feeling great at all, and he was actually trying to get some rest to ease a nasty headache. all those calls really stressed him out, i could tell he was about to have a proper anxiety fit. not what anyone needs, especially when you're unwell or older!

I got a call from someone pretending to be “customer awareness” or some kind of scam. After I ended the call, they kept ringing me back multiple times just to make silly noises on the line. What idiots.

Sounds like one of those pushy survey callers. Best to just block them straight away.

Today I got a call from someone who said they were from “consumer awareness uk.” Didn’t really buy it and just ended up blocking the number.

This number has rung my phone eight times over the 23rd and 24th, which is honestly getting a bit creepy.

Heads up to everyone in the UK - watch out for these spam calls! They’re really annoying and a waste of time. Just want more people to be aware and not fall for any dodgy scams or unwanted sales pitches. Stay safe out there!

Got calls from this number like 10 times over the last two days. Only picked up once, and when they started asking stuff, I just told them I wasn’t gonna answer and hung up.

Got called about five times, when I just said hello they started talking, if not they just ended the call. Tried calling back but no one picked up. Someone really should sort this out.

Got a call from a guy with an asian accent, said his name was Michael. He somehow already had my name and my address. He asked me two questions, first if I was younger or older than 80 years old and why he needed to know. Then he wanted to know the brand of my washing machine. When I asked where he got my number from, he said some kind of database. I told him I don’t do calls like that, asked him to take me off their list and warned that if he called again, I’d report him. Of course, he just hung up on me. The phone code looked like it was from Blackpool! Very dodgy.

They rang me up like three different times today, just wouldn't leave me alone. Eventually, I gave up and started blowing raspberries into the phone until they finally stopped calling.

Got a call from a bloke with a South Asian accent who said he was ‘Mike’ from some group called ‘consumer awareness’. He claimed it was just a quick chat, only three easy questions that’d take half a minute tops, or so he said. Turns out ‘consumer awareness’ is just another one of those busy call centres in South Asia pushing endless spam calls and likely selling your info to the highest bidder. Definitely chuck them on your block list.

Keeps calling but just drops the phone before I pick up.
