I've received calls from this number on several occasions recently. It buzzed my phone earlier today around 11:50 if I recall correctly. Given the area code, it seems it's claiming to be from the Basildon region. We tried to mask our number by using 141 before calling it back, but the number didn't show up in our contacts. Seems a bit suspect, doesn't it? Definitely feels like a dodgy line!

We've been receiving calls from this number on a daily basis as well. Is there anyone out there who knows who this might be? It's becoming quite vexing!

I had the exact same encounter as everyone else who’s commented. They called me at precisely 10:45, claiming to be from a Basildon number. Strange thing was, as soon as I answered, the line went silent. Just the other day, I received a call from a young lady regarding some grant for the Carbon Footprint Trust, but I wasn’t in the mood to chat since I was heading out. I really wish these sorts of folks would find something better to occupy their time!

We answered the call, and then those folks simply hung up on us without a word.

At precisely 19:50, our phone rang with a call that we couldn’t trace back. It's curious how these callers don't waste any time in trying to reach us, yet when the moment arises to return the call, there’s no way to do so. It’s puzzling to see such a number appear on our screen. We can only assume we'll be hearing from them again soon, despite hoping to be left undisturbed. It's worth mentioning that we’re on the ex-directory list. My partner insists it’s not a mistake on our part, but I can’t shake the feeling that our recent online purchases, which included our address, may have opened the floodgates. One has to wonder how much of our personal information is being shared without our consent; it feels like a breach of privacy.

We've received multiple calls from this number, and it appears a young woman has been asking for us personally. Strangely enough, she won't leave a message but insists they will try to get through again. Out of curiosity, we tried to return the call since the area code is Basildon, not far from where I reside. We thought it might be someone familiar to us. However, every time we dial, the line is constantly busy. It's quite puzzling, really!

Avoid dialing this number, as you could end up on a premium rate line that charges you a fiver. I’m not entirely clued up on the specifics, but an ex-BT technician mentioned that this could indeed happen. Best to steer clear of it, just in case!

It's rather odd that these individuals keep calling only to hang up. Quite the perplexing behaviour, if you ask me! What a bunch of numpties!

Lately, we've been receiving calls from THIS number at precisely 3 PM every single day at the office. It's been going on for roughly a month now, and honestly, we’re left scratching our heads about who on earth has so little going on in their lives that they spend hours doing this. We’ve got no intention of returning these calls, especially since we’ve been warned about the scams associated with them; they victimize people with exorbitant call charges and often just leave behind a recorded message. It's quite pathetic really. We’ll happily allow them to keep wasting their breath; it doesn’t faze us in the slightest.

Our mother has been receiving calls from this number repeatedly. We're quite relieved to have stumbled upon this website, as we weren't even aware it was available. Is anyone familiar with this number or has any additional information? It’s been the same number each time, and despite him claiming he was calling back through 1471, we’ve advised her not to answer the phone whenever it rings now, nor to attempt a return call, as you can never be too sure about the situation! Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

I’ve just received a peculiar call from these folks claiming to ask if I’d applied for any grants to reduce my carbon footprint. They assured me it wasn’t a sales pitch, but then promptly cut the line. It’s rather alarming how these scams seem to be becoming more refined, isn’t it?

I received a call from this number earlier today at precisely 13:37 on the 3rd of December, 2009. What an utter waste of time! I reached out to Virgin Media, but it seemed these folks couldn't care less. Absolute time-wasters!

I continue to receive this same call every day at three o'clock whilst I'm at the office. It's been going on for the past couple of weeks. We’ve started to deliberately overlook the phone between three and four each afternoon and genuinely hope the callers eventually tire of it. The number is unfamiliar to me, but I must say, I'm rather hoping they would find something productive to do during the day!

I’ve just had a look at a neighbour's answerphone messages and it turns out she’s been in hospital for the last five months. There was a woman’s voice on a message that was left at 14:54 on the 24th of September, 2008. She mentioned something about the 10th of October, which I presume is an appointment. I tried calling back using 1471, but it seems the line is completely dead each time. I investigated the number and it appears to be rather suspicious, to say the least.

We've been receiving calls from this number, yet the moment we pick up, the line goes silent. When we try to call back, it says the number's not valid. We're going to investigate further to see what's going on.

I recently received a call from this number and was quite taken aback. The young lady on the other end seemingly knew my name, which is puzzling since I’m ex-directory. She began discussing various grants available for loft and wall insulation. I mentioned that our property is relatively new and already adequately insulated. At that point, she understood she wasn't able to provide any useful information and abruptly shifted the topic. I’ve no idea who these individuals are, however.

In the last three days, we've received upwards of eight calls from this number. Each time we pick up, the line disconnects abruptly. We're able to identify the number through 1471, but when we try to return the call, we're met with a message saying the number isn't recognised. Quite puzzling, really!

I’ve been getting this call too, and it’s absolutely infuriating! There’s even a weird clicking noise too. Definitely feels like one of those irritating telesales scams. This is happening around Kent, by the way.

I received a call from this number that rang for a few moments before suddenly cutting off. Shortly after, I received another call from a withheld number, and it was exactly the same scenario. Quite peculiar, really!

Received another call from this number earlier today. After thinking it over, I reckon the caller might be employing some sort of technology to disguise their actual number, presenting it instead as a seemingly legitimate one. It seems like they’ve found a way around those of us using BT's services to block withheld numbers. As a result, when you have caller ID active for screening, an actual number pops up rather than an anonymous one. Quite the crafty tactic, if you ask me!
