3 monthsGot a call but they didn’t leave any message. Pretty sure it was just some spam.5 monthsJust looked at my phone earlier and it seems like it might’ve been a scam call.5 monthsGot a call on 30 March 2026 from a woman with an Aussie accent saying she was some sort of energy advisor. As soon as I told her I was on the TPS list, she just hung up on me. Pretty suspicious!TPS5 monthsKeeps ringing but no voicemail left each time.10 yearsBrilliant!10 yearsI saw the number but didn’t know who it was so I let it ring out. Tried calling back with my number hidden and all I got was silence.10 yearsI got a call today from someone who wanted me to confirm my name. When I said "Who’s this?" and asked what the call was regarding, they seemed proper annoyed that I didn’t just give them my details. Turns out the company calling was called Travel Investigations Ltd or something like that.LeeTravel Investigations Ltd10 yearsSomeone rang me up and wouldn’t say who they were, just kept asking if I was Mrs X. When I asked who they were, all they said was ‘why?’ which really made me feel uneasy.X10 yearsWe tried ringing that number using our landline without revealing our own number, just to see if it would connect. Turns out the number isn't valid at all-though, frankly, we weren't particularly shocked by that!10 yearsSome bloke rang up asking for Mr. Blank but I said I was Mrs. Blank. Then he started going on about a holiday we supposedly took that was all inclusive, which we'd never done. I mentioned my husband had actually died, and then he just hung up straight away.Blank10 yearsAnswered the call and it was just dead air. Definitely blocking this number from now on.10 yearsI got a call from some jacket potato place asking if I still wanted to go ahead with an order for 600 jacket potatoes. Thing is, I never actually made that order in the first place. They even started talking about charging me a cancellation fee! Pretty ridiculous if you ask me.Jacet Potato Company10 yearsI got a call regarding a holiday I went on, and they told me I might be owed compensation. Apparently, some tour companies didn't do proper hygiene inspections, so if I had any tummy issues or diarrhoea during my trip, I could claim a decent amount. I did a bit of digging online and it seems legit. Now I’m just waiting for the tour company to send over the info and will see where it goes. No fees involved, so figured why not give it a shot.10 yearsGot a call about some all inclusive trip I supposedly took over the past three years. As soon as the bloke started chatting, I tried to give him a response, but he just shut me down straight away.10 yearsPeople still falling for that trick to get your details? Just ignore those calls and put them on block, they ain’t fooling anyone.10 yearsSome bloke called me, saying it was about an all inclusive holiday I supposedly took in the past three years. I just said, yeah sure, hoping to catch him out. Then he got all surprised and asked if I really recalled going on that trip. I ended up hanging up straight away.10 yearsThey rang me up three times but hung up as soon as I picked up each call.10 yearsThey kept asking me to verify my name but refused to say who they were until I did. I wasn’t having it, so I just told them no thanks and ended the call.10 yearsI've received numerous calls from 01610988256, and it's clearly linked to PPI and similar antics. This Manchester number has become quite the nuisance, and I'd categorically label it as harassment.Manchester10 yearsPiss off and stop wasting our time, you utter wally!Submit Your Own Report (0161 098 8256)
