Phone number ☎️ 01612431722 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance involving unsolicited calls from someone claiming to represent a housing disrepair or repair service, often citing council or housing association affiliation. Callers, typically with a strong Indian accent, frequently attempt to discuss property issues like mould or damp, despite recipients denying any problems. Many report repeated calls, including from different numbers, and difficulties in stopping them despite requests to remove their details. Some calls include inappropriate or odd behaviour, such as using personal information, making unsolicited advances, or abruptly ending the conversation when questioned. The overall experience is considered a headache and potential scam, prompting strong advice to block the number and exercise caution when receiving such unexpected calls.

2 yearsGot called by someone with an Indian accent pretending to be from the housing disrepair department. Honestly, it was so obvious it was a scam. You'd think they'd realise by now that nobody’s dumb enough to get caught out by these tricks. Such a waste of their time!3 yearsGot a call from a guy with an Indian accent claiming to be from the Housing disrepair team. I told him that department isn’t real. He kept asking if our place had any mould or damp problems, even though we’re actually a business. I told him everything’s fine, cheers, and then he just ended the call.Housing Disrepair3 yearsUtterly irritating unsolicited calls from an Indian phone repair service! They always seem to have a fresh number and new voices on the line, bombarding me at all hours! I've repeatedly asked them to remove my number from their system, and they assure me they will, only to start with the calls yet again! I honestly have no clue how they acquired my number considering I haven't interacted with them for a year and a half! What can I do to put an end to this nuisance? I reside in London, so why does it feel like I'm being inundated with WhatsApp messages and texts from folks in Manchester? What's going on?!LondonWhatsAppManchester3 yearsWhat a complete rip-off!Crook3 yearsGot repeated calls from some bloke with an Indian accent, keeps talking about fixing houses. He’s rung me up three times now, all from Manchester. Each time, he opens with exactly the same spiel. Told him to stop and to remove my number from their list, but no luck.

Got a random call from a bloke who said he loved me! He somehow knew my last name but stumbled over how to say it, and claimed he’d seen my photo somewhere.

I reckon he realised his call wasn’t going anywhere since I didn’t really respond.4 yearsReceived a call supposedly from the Housing Disrepair Department, who said they were contacting me for the council about making claims for tenants.
