01607317077 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01607317077 👆 is reported as a persistent scam number impersonating the Telephone Preference Service (TPS) with calls often featuring silent pauses or immediate hang-ups. Callers, frequently described as having Asian accents, attempt to gain personal details including addresses, debit and credit card information, sometimes using aggressive or insistent tactics. The callers falsely claim to offer nuisance call blocking or service upgrades, occasionally demanding payments for services that the genuine TPS does not charge for. Recipients are advised to block and report these calls to authorities such as Ofcom or Action Fraud. Users are recommended not to engage or provide any personal information and to verify legitimate TPS contacts through official channels only.

Receiving silent calls four to eight times daily is becoming quite the nuisance. It's rather peculiar the types of individuals one encounters these days.

Just got a call from an Asian bloke saying he was going to stop all annoying calls starting today. He even mentioned my street and postcode, then said one of my debit cards was about to expire and wanted me to verify it. I told him I wasn’t bothered, and he went quite annoyed. Pretty clear to me it was a scam right away.

This number has popped up on my phone a few times recently. The very first call was when I wasn’t home, and no voicemail was left. So, when I saw the same number ring again, I decided not to pick up since they never say anything. They haven’t tried to leave a message either. I’m pretty sure they’ll give up before I do!

Got a call from someone claiming they're offering tips on how to block annoying calls, but it was just a trick. They never asked for my debit card details though, which was a bit suspicious. Definitely felt like a scam to me.

This number just rang me up, some woman with an Asian accent said she needed to verify my TPS info. When she started asking for my personal stuff, I didn’t bother and just ended the call. Pretty clear it was a scam.

Had a weird call from a guy with an Asian accent. After a bit of awkward silence, he claimed he was from Telephone Preference Management. I asked who he was, and he said he could stop unwanted calls for me. I didn’t hang around to hear more, just told him I didn’t trust him and to sort himself out!

The caller had a distinctly foreign accent. He addressed me by name and claimed to be representing the Mailing Preference Service, inquiring whether I had received any unwanted mail or phone calls. I felt a tad wary, so I simply replied in the negative. He seemed to question my response and then abruptly ended the call. Interestingly, this number had tried to reach me a couple of hours earlier, but I was away at the time.

Similar story here but the caller was a man with an Asian accent and he was really pushy. I just ended the call straight away.

Same experience as others here, a guy with an Asian accent called. He got my name completely wrong. When I asked what the call was about, he said it was regarding stopping nuisance calls. I told him he was the real nuisance and that he had the wrong info for my address. He got quite nasty, but I didn’t back down and he ended up hanging up. Tried ringing the number back afterwards, but it said it didn’t exist. These places drive me mad. I’m on the TPS list and still get bothered. Honestly, it’s so annoying!!

Got a call from this number but the line was rubbish, all I could hear was silence. After a while I just about caught a woman's voice faintly in the background before they cut off the call after just a few seconds.

They rang me but didn't bother leaving a message. I can't help but think they expect you to be daft enough to return the call. Nah, I’m not falling for that one, thanks all the same!

On the 3rd of January 2017, an Asian guy rang my elderly mum, going on about some TPS stuff trying to throw her off. She nearly ended up giving him her card details but luckily paused and ended the call just in time.

Got a call from a man with an Asian accent asking to speak to my wife by name. When I told him she was at work, he just hung up. Tried calling the number back but, like others have pointed out, it doesn’t show up as a valid number. Reading through the comments, looks like a lot of people have clocked on to his scam. Makes me wonder how many have fallen for it though. And seriously, why is this number still running? How come the police haven’t tracked him down and stopped him yet?

I usually ignore calls from numbers I don't recognise but always take a minute to look up any that pop up here. Cheers to everyone sharing heads-ups - they’re really helpful!

Got a ring from a bloke with an Asian accent claiming to be from some telephone preference service. He was going on about annoying calls and such. Weirdly, he mentioned my Visa card expiry date, which I never gave him. Same with my address, he 'confirmed' stuff I never shared. Then he went on about some code linked to my name meant for call preferences. That was enough for me, so I just ended the call.

I got a call from some bloke who claimed his name was Brad Jones and said he worked for TPS. He told me he had to check my info to sort out an upgrade for my TPS service. I pointed out that TPS is free, so why would he need my bank details? What bugs me is that loads of folks have already posted warnings about this guy and the same phone number on here. So how come he's still able to run these scams? Surely his number's flagged, but it looks like neither the phone company nor the cops are stepping in enough.

Looks like a total scam, they claim to be from the telephone preference service but they're just trying to get you to pay for some dodgy subscription. Be careful and don’t pick up!

Some bloke calling himself Brad, had this awful Indian accent, said he was from the Telephone Preference Society and asked about nuisance calls. I just told him straight up, "Mate, you're the nuisance here." Then he goes, "Hold on, this call is being recorded." I just replied, "Fine by me," launched into a proper rant, and then slammed the phone down.

I wasn't sure who was calling me, so I had to look up their number online. I picked up because I was actually waiting for a return call from a business, but when I answered, nobody said anything. All I could hear was that background chatter like a bunch of people in an office or call centre. Then, just like that, they hung up. Such a hassle.

I got a call from an Asian gentleman claiming to be from TPS, saying they knew I’d been getting annoying calls. I just laughed right away because it was obvious it was a scam. He quickly ended the call when I didn’t fall for it. The real TPS don’t ring you up, plus they never ask for your bank details since their service is completely free.

This number appears to be linked to the same fraudulent individuals behind the TPS scam using 02036300351. If you happen to receive a call from either of these digits, rest assured they’ll attempt to squeeze you for cash, claiming that a one-off payment of £21.21 is necessary to cover the cost of some monitoring device. To me, they’re nothing short of despicable.

Got a call from someone saying they were from the TPS, but they slipped up when they asked for my mum who's passed away like 20 years ago! They wanted me to verify some info so I just ended the call. Bloody cheeky scammers!

Got a call from this number earlier saying they were from the TPS. They asked for a one-time fee of £21.21 for some equipment. I rang up TPS afterwards and they told me it’s a total scam and advised me to report it at http://www.actionfraud.police.uk/ which I have done. Honestly, these scammers are the worst, hiding behind phones probably from miles away.

Got a call from a woman with a strong accent saying she was from TPS, then she passed the call to an Asian guy. He kept insisting he needed my debit card’s verification number, but really he was after my account number. I hung up on him. They called back two more times but I just picked up and dropped the call straight away. Didn’t give them any details at all.

Got a call from someone claiming to be from a call blocking firm. Ended up having a proper chat with the bloke about the TPS and BT rules. He mentioned his firm was based in London, but rattled off the address so fast I had to ask him to say it again slower so I could jot it down. Suddenly, he hung up on me. Bit of a shame really, I was just warming up to ask him a load more daft questions, like how tall he was.

I looked up some comments about it and it seems like they might have your info somehow. I’ve set my answerphone to pick up now and I’m gonna just ignore any calls from this number.

On the 23rd of Feb, 2017 around 10 in the morning, I got a call from a guy with an Indian accent claiming he was from TPS about some harassment complaints.

I told him straight away that TPS never asks for card details and then he just hung up. Definitely a phishing scam, so watch out!

Our phones actually display the caller ID or the name if they're saved in our contacts, kind of like how mobiles do it. Honestly, switching to one of these phones was a good move. Now, me and my wife just ignore calls when we don’t know the number showing up on the screen.
