7 yearsIt comes up as 118, absolute rip offs!7 yearsI didn't pick up when 0161 249 7379 rang, so I used 1471 to check who it was. Since the number seemed familiar, I looked it up here. Thanks to everyone for the info! If they ring back, I'll know straight away to just block it and not bother answering.7 yearsI got a missed call, called them back and just ended up listening to music for about ten minutes with nobody picking up. What a waste of time!7 yearsThey just cut the call straight away.7 yearsSomebody rang me saying they were from the 118 Online Directory, asking to verify my address. It didn't really sound legit or like the proper 118118 people, so I just said no and ended the call.7 yearsSome guy called saying he was from 118, asked loads about our broadband trying to convince me he could cut costs. I refused to give any details and told him no thanks. After that, he just ended the call. Definitely block this number.118Best7 yearsCheers to everyone who shared their experiences. Since I know some folks around Manchester, I probably would have picked up the phone if they called back without giving me a heads up first.Manchester7 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were verifying details for that 118 directory service. They wanted the name of the main contact and how many employees we have. Before ending the call, they said they’d pass our details on to broadband providers.7 yearsSomeone rang saying they were calling from 118 118 to check some business info. I told them to carry on, and then they asked if the business was called "x". Since it wasn’t quite right, I said no, and then they just ended the call.118 1187 yearsHung up straightaway.7 yearsThey said they were "AD property services" but as soon as I asked who they wanted to speak with, they just ended the call.AD Property Services7 yearsFor the last couple of weeks I've been getting calls from this number. It's some 118 free[###] or something like that. I keep telling them I'm not interested and to stop calling, then just hang up. But no sooner do I put the phone down, they ring back again like half a minute later. In about ten minutes time, they managed to call me like fifteen times. Even after I said it was a private number, they didn't stop ringing. Proper annoying!7 yearsGot a few calls today from some place wanting me to verify business info for some directory - all on the same day that a different company linked to Unitel had just rung me. It felt pretty annoying and honestly a bit sketchy. From what I’ve heard, Unitel’s services aren’t exactly reliable, and loads of folks who got involved have had bad experiences. Seems like a dodgy setup, so I’d definitely avoid it if I were you.Unitel7 yearsSomebody rang me, saying he's with 118 free net and wanted to verify our business info. I told him to have a look on our official site instead, but he argued that it only directs him to a customer service line, which isn't true as we don’t even have one. Pretty sure it was just a scam, a complete waste of my time.118 Free Net7 yearsGot a call today from someone saying they were with 118 118, wanted to check some details. I asked what exactly they wanted to verify, but they just said they should’ve had the info by then and promptly hung up. Quite odd really.118Cheerio7 yearsGot a call but no message left.

Such a pointless call, totally wasted my time.7 yearsGot a call but the caller didn’t leave any message. Checked it out, seen it searched 287 times but not one single comment from anyone.

Best to refrain from responding.8 yearsI keep getting calls from this number, and I’ve already blocked them once. When I called back, a chap picked up and mentioned something about putting me through, but surprise, surprise, nobody ever picks up when you really want to speak to someone. It’s high time these people were reported to the authorities; they need to be put out of business. It’s quite unjust, especially for the elderly who might be more vulnerable to such nonsense.Submit Your Own Report (0161 249 7379)
