01483537542 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01483537542 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance associated with scam calls, often involving foreign-accented individuals posing as representatives from official telephone preference or blocking services. Callers frequently attempt to extract personal or financial information, such as debit card expiry dates, under false pretences. The calls can be intrusive, targeting vulnerable individuals and sometimes using known personal details like names and addresses to seem credible. Genuine telephone preference services do not charge fees or request sensitive information. Many recipients advise caution, refusing to share personal details and reporting these suspicious calls to the official telephone preference service. The number is widely believed to be linked to fraudulent activity rather than any legitimate organisation.

Got a call from a number I didn’t recognise. Pretty sure it was someone unknown.

Since 7 January 21, there's been a steady stream of calls from men and women with foreign accents, never giving up. They've been ringing a vulnerable woman, luckily with carers who understand these aren't genuine calls and manage the situation.

it's really worrying how they got my full name, address and postcode. i told the woman i was going to report her to the police and she just put the phone down. honestly, the authorities should do more to stop these calls, especially since they target vulnerable people.

got a call from an asian lady asking for the old owner of our flat, whose name's still in the directory linked to our number. it was definitely a cold call. i've signed up with the telephone preference service, which costs nothing and lets you flag dodgy calls, texts or emails, especially ones that seem like scams.

I got a call from this number, but the line was really bad and hard to understand. The person claimed they were from the BT preference service and offered to stop all unwanted calls for me. Thing is, we're already signed up with them and I know the real service doesn't ask for money.

I got a call from some BT preference line about blocking unwanted calls for life because I pay my bills by direct debit. They asked for my debit card expiry date, saying their records showed it was out of date. I told them it wasn't needed since the payments go straight from my bank. Still, the woman kept pushing, saying she had to have the expiry date to connect it to my account. Even after I kept saying it wasn’t necessary, she just wouldn't back down. In the end, I told her no thanks and ended the call.

Got a call from a Guildford number again today, but when I picked up, there was just silence on the other side. This is the third time this week it's happened. Feels like some sort of scam to me.

Some bloke with an Indian accent rang up saying he was from a ‘telephone blocking team’ but clearly just grabbed my number from the directory since he called my partner by my name. He said he was calling from Margaret Street in London, even though the code he dialled from belongs to Guildford, Surrey. I decided to mess about and asked him loads of questions like why he was calling and which company my direct debit goes to (he had no clue and I don’t even use BT). After a while he must’ve cottoned on we were winding him up or just got bored and hung up. We’re trying to set a new record for how long we can keep these dodgy callers on the line. Our new lockdown pastime 😂😂😂
