01624675521 rang me pretending to be from BT. They wrongly said I had phoned them first. Some bloke called Steve from this dodgy outfit threatened to cut off my internet. Total SCAM!

Calling three times every day this week, really annoying.

Accidentally picked up a call from this number and it was really odd. Heard loads of background noise and the person quickly asked me twice, "Do you have any makeup wipes?" before I just ended the call. Blocked them now after checking, looks like one of those annoying spam calls.
8 years
They called me today, but luckily I didn’t pick up. They left no voicemail, so it’s clear their call wasn’t really important or urgent. After seeing what others have said about this number, I’m pretty sure I’ll be getting more calls from them.

Got calls from them like 5 times today till I just blocked the number. Never picked up any of 'em. They tried once before too, and yeah, left it ringing the same way.

I never pick up calls from Manchester, they’re always a pain. I’m addicted to blocking numbers now, my blocked list is getting pretty lengthy. Honestly, if you don’t know the area, just don’t bother answering. Let it ring out and then put it straight on the block.

They rang me 3 times today. I picked up on the third, and they said they were from some PPI firm. Told them exactly what I thought and ended the call. Then they dared to call again a few mins later to argue. Proper dodgy lot, they really ought to be closed down.

Just wanted to find out if I might have ppi claims.

I've been pestered by this number a total of five times today! Didn't pick up any of their calls and just sent them all to voicemail. After having a look at what others have said about them, I've now gone ahead and blocked the number altogether.

They claim they're from HMRC just to get you to ring them back, pretty sure that’s against the law.

This lady began by asking how I was doing. Since I don’t share my health stuff with strangers on the phone, I asked if she seriously wanted to hear about my medical issues. She said no, she wasn’t interested. I then asked what was the point of her call. She asked if I’d ever filed a PPI claim. I told her that’s private and ended the call.

I’m getting about four calls daily. When I pick up, there’s just music playing. I’ve tried blocking them but they keep coming through. Honestly, I have no clue who these people are and it’s really getting on my nerves.

Put 'em on the blacklist.

I've been bombarded with nine calls from these muppets! Four of them just hung up on me and the other five went straight to a robotic voice. It’s the same old PPI nonsense - they always say you can opt out by emailing [email protected], but it seems those emails go straight into the void! Absolutely useless! Is there anyone out there who could share an address for these pests? I’d love to pay them a little visit and give them a taste of their own medicine. Surely someone must know who they are and where they’re lurking!

Without a doubt, it's one of those PPI calls.

0161 249 7631 kept ringing my phone like 7 times today. No idea who they are or what they want. I never picked up, and there was no message left or anything, so I just decided to block the number.

No answer on the other end, just silence when I pick up. Rang me 5 times today - blocked now.

I've had a right nuisance with this phone number ringing me repeatedly. Finally decided to pick up, and it turned out to be about PPI claims. The bloke on the other end was quite cheeky, referring to me as "love" multiple times. When I requested that he stop and asked to be removed from their call list, he had the audacity to call me "Treacle" before abruptly hanging up! It's quite astonishing, really!

I've received calls from this number three times already. Do they not get the hint that I’m not interested in chatting? I've already blocked them, but they persist in ringing me. Quite infuriating!

Women being all flirty isn’t really my thing, I’m more into stuff that’s properly hardcore.

Got several calls from this number today. When I answered at last, some English lady claiming to be from a PPI firm tried to offer me a no-strings info pack by post. She asked for my name and address, which I knew she had wrong, but she confirmed it anyway, then said she had more questions. I wasn’t having any of it and told her to buzz off. Seems like just another way to grab personal details to sell on.

This number has rung me 5 times today and didn’t even leave a message. When I answered the fifth time, there was just silence on the other end. After seeing the comments here, I’ve gone ahead and blocked it. No clue who they are and it’s obvious they’re not trying to talk to me, so why would I bother trying to talk to them?

It was a call from a payment protection firm.
