I allowed it to divert to voicemail, but interestingly, nothing was left behind. What struck me as peculiar was the fact that the number displayed a double 00 at the start of the area code.

Called my elderly folks, and to my surprise, they picked up! They've got call blocking activated, so why on earth is this number slipping through the cracks?

I received a call from this number earlier today, and upon picking up, I was greeted by a robotic voice declaring, "you are presently the sole participant in this conference!" Quite baffling, really!

Absolutely clueless about who these folks are; they seem like a right bunch of numpties based on what I’ve just come across. They had the audacity to ask me if I was the police, as if they’ve posed the same daft question to others, judging by the comments below. I was a bit cheeky and inquired what their interest was, since, for all they knew, I might actually be in a position of authority. That’s when they launched into a right tirade of insults before slamming the phone down. Honestly, what a bunch of divs - best just to steer clear of them!

Called me by my name and claimed I’d been chosen to receive up to £2000 as part of some recycling initiative. When I mentioned that he shouldn’t be contacting me since I’m registered with the Telephone Preference Service, he proceeded to educate me on it, insisting that his call was exempt because it wasn’t a sales pitch. He went on about how I would know this if I had bothered to read the first page of the TPS website. I simply laid the phone down on my desk and allowed him to ramble on until he finally hung up. Definitely not the most tactful or persuasive communicator!

A chap rang me claiming to be associated with Ideal Homes. I promptly informed him that I wasn't keen, to which he retorted, "Well, that's a bit daft, isn’t it?" I questioned his logic, and he shot back, "It's because you don't know me or what I'm after." I insisted yet again that it really didn't matter since I had zero interest in either his identity or his intentions! The conversation went south rather rapidly, descending into a tirade. He boasted about knowing all sorts of details about me, warning me to be cautious. He kept reeling off my address, prompting me to confront him directly about whether he was making a threat. Although he denied it, he insisted he had more information on me than I realised. I pointed out that this was, in fact, a veiled threat. It was painfully obvious that this man’s intellect barely surpassed that of a garden gnome.

I'm absolutely fed up with this number constantly calling my landline, only to hang up without uttering a single word. It's downright irritating! Surely there's a way to tackle this issue? And who on earth is behind these incessant calls?

This number called me again at 4 in the afternoon, for the third day running! I checked it here before picking up, so I answered trying to sound like a proper tough guy: "Just finished the job boss, wiping up the last of the mess." There was this awkward "uhhh" then they hung up straight away. Fingers crossed they ring again tomorrow, this is just hilarious. Bloody annoying though!

Got a call from a young woman claiming she was conducting a survey for Ideal Homes. She said there was a grant up to £2000 to get new windows and doors. Told her we weren’t interested and then they just hung up on us.

Got a call from a really dull sounding lady with a thick Scouse accent, going on about recycling windows and some £2000 grant. She just brushed past me saying I was on the TPS.

Had a call from these folks claiming they could get me government grants for swapping out old doors and windows. They launched straight into asking how many windows I wanted to change, without even asking if I needed any done. Then, right after I mentioned my home’s in a conservation area, the bloke let out a sarcastic sigh and just hung up before I could say anything else! Such bad manners.

What a plonker! He kept trying to speak to me, saying he "wasn't selling anything". I asked, "So why on earth are you calling me then?" The bloke, called Michael, had a really obvious Pakistani accent. I just told him to get lost straight away.

I had an odd phone call today; when I picked up, I was met with laughter on the other end. It felt as if the caller was engaged in a joke with someone and couldn’t be bothered to chat with me. Then, out of the blue, the call just dropped. I'm registered with the Telephone Preference Service, so I shouldn't be subjected to these calls at all. When are they going to take action to put an end to this nonsense?

It was a bloke calling, asking if I was Mr Harling. I quickly told him he was barking up the wrong tree and suggested maybe trying a different name instead of the same old one. He kept on rabbiting on, so I just told him to jog on and that he was a right idiot. Pretty sharpish he hung up!

Got a call from a pretty friendly young lady who said there was funding for different home repairs. I’m thinking maybe they’ve switched up their strategy since last time? She mentioned she was just sales and offered to connect me with someone who had more details. I told her no thanks.

I informed them that I had opted for the telephone preference service, and they surprisingly questioned whether I was a police officer! Shortly after, the chap on the line became quite hostile and began hurling insults in my direction. When I tried to return the call, it connected to a firm in Lancashire named Blue Research, but I'm struggling to gather any additional information to lodge a complaint. Clearly, they are a dodgy operation attempting to peddle double glazing!

There’s this place named Blue Research that’s been calling me non-stop for three days straight. I kept explaining to them that they’d got the wrong number and reminded them that I’m on the TPS list. Eventually, I got fed up and blasted my air horn right into the handset for a good five seconds - it’s been sitting there by my phone ever since! Fingers crossed they’ve learnt their lesson now!

Absolute nightmare of a bloke! When I told him to take my number off his list, he flat out refused. Said if I couldn’t spare a couple of minutes to chat, I wasn’t going to get removed. My mum’s really poorly and just can’t handle annoying calls like this.

I've had a rather frustrating experience with a recycling firm. The company's name is Blue Research. I’ve duly notified the Telephone Preference Service, as I’m registered with them and ought not to be getting these calls at all. It's quite bewildering how these companies can persist in ringing individuals despite their preferences being clearly stated.
