01284846560 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ā˜Žļø 01284846560 šŸ‘† is reported as a persistent nuisance number primarily associated with driveway-related scams. Callers, often using the name "John" and claiming to represent a driveway or home maintenance company, frequently make repeated unsolicited calls without leaving messages. Many recipients report silent calls, abrupt hang-ups when questioned, or scripted sales pitches targeting elderly or unsuspecting individuals. Attempts to verify identity typically fail, and calls may come from various locations despite displaying a local UK number. Blocking the number is common among users, but it does not always prevent further calls. It is strongly advised not to engage, not to share personal details, and to report these calls via official channels like Action Fraud or the ICO to help combat these fraudulent practices.

So, on the 15th of May 2024, I got a call from a number claiming to be Suffolk Trading Standards. I don’t pick up unknown numbers usually, but I decided to call back this time. When I did, it was just some scam attempt. Honestly, if they really needed to reach me, they’d leave a message, but nope, nothing. Definitely a SCAM, no doubt about it.

I usually don’t pick up calls from numbers that aren’t saved in my contacts. If it really matters, they’ll leave a voicemail anyway. Also, it’s worth searching the number online before calling back. Just because a number has a UK dialling code doesn’t guarantee the caller is actually in the UK.

Loads of calls from some bloke who says his name’s John, but he rings from different phone numbers all over the place. Keeps banging on about a drainage contract that he claims I owe or need. Thing is, I’m leasehold, so that sort of contract doesn’t apply to me at all. He’s been proper pushy and quite rude every time he calls.

I always avoid picking up calls from numbers with unfamiliar area codes, same goes for mobile phones as well. If it’s something important, they’ll drop you a voicemail, but these annoying people never bother to. Total waste of time!

I just cut the call as soon as I heard it go to voicemail.
