I reckon this is some sort of scam. I tried ringing the number to find out who it was, and the message was all garbled, saying something about a 30 minute wait time. My elderly aunt, who’s a bit forgetful sometimes, has a mobile, and I noticed she’d called this number seven times. She wouldn’t have dialled them intentionally, plus she doesn’t know anyone in Manchester. It’s really frustrating because it drained all the credit off her phone and she’s quite short on cash.

I received a call from 01612778194 earlier today. Upon picking up, I was greeted by nothing but eerie silence. After about five or six seconds of awkwardly waiting, the line suddenly disconnected. Quite delightful, isn’t it?

Today, I had a phone call from this number. A gentleman - didn’t quite catch his name - mentioned he was ringing on behalf of Orange/EE. He inquired whether I was still on a PAYG plan, to which I confirmed, saying 'yes'. Then he probed into how much I topped up each month, and I responded with '£10.00'. He then suggested I consider moving from PAYG to a PAY MONTHLY plan. I politely declined, but he seemed quite keen to convince me otherwise. I firmly stated that if I needed assistance from Orange/EE, I would reach out to them directly. After asking why I wasn’t interested in making the switch, I reiterated my stance calmly. He thanked me for my time before ending the call.

I keep getting calls from this number even though I’m living overseas. It has a Manchester area code, which is a bit weird because my family’s there but I never pick up. They also don’t bother leaving any voicemail. Proper annoying!

Like a few others here, I’ve been getting annoying calls from this number pretty much daily. They seem to use another one too, which is the same except it finishes with 8196.

Got calls from those numbers ending in 194 and 196, trying to pitch phone deals at me. Feels like they’re crossing the line with constant ringing, might be against harassment rules and definitely someone should take action.

Every day this week, this number keeps calling me. I always let it go to voicemail because I figured it was probably just some spam. It’s really getting quite irritating.

Steer well clear of Vulturistic, it’s best not to get involved.

They ring me nonstop every single day. I'm really fed up with it.

So I got a call saying I’d won the lottery and they asked for my bank info, which I stupidly gave. It’s been a while now and still no sign of any money in my account...

If you get a moment, ask them to remove your details from their list and quit ringing you. Ignoring that, they're actually breaking the law and could face serious fines or even jail time for privacy breaches and harassment. They might already be on thin ice for this anyway.

Same thing happened to me, I ended up reporting it to both EE and Orange as well as Ofcom.

Claimed to be calling from Orange but it's actually EE these days. Heard loads of people yelling in the background, pretty sure it's a scam. Absolutely do NOT hand over your bank info!!!

For a whole week, this number kept buzzing me every evening. I finally put it on my phone’s block list so it stops disturbing me. I’m really relieved I looked it up online to find out who it was, as I was starting to get a bit anxious it might be something serious!

Called from this number a few times but every time I pick up, no-one says a word. Really frustrating and feels like just spam.

For the past couple of weeks, I've been getting nonstop annoying calls from that number, and I'm really over it now.

I got a call from someone saying they were from ORANGE. I didn’t buy it one bit. The minute they mentioned Orange, I just told them I wasn’t interested and ended the call straight away!

This number called me today saying they were from Orange. I asked right away, "What are you trying to sell?" Their answer was something like they wanted to make sure I’m on the right PAYG plan. Then they asked how much I usually spend monthly on my mobile. I told them around £10, but only every few months. They said they’d mark me as a low user, but I told them to put me down as a VERY low user instead. After that, they seemed to lose interest. So, that was that! They were polite and didn’t push too hard, which was nice. At least they didn’t hide their number. Still, I’m not convinced they were really from Orange - if they were, why wouldn’t they already know how much I spend?

I’ve had this number ring me loads of times, quite frustrating really.

Another annoying call from some scammer or sales person, I reckon. Its really frustrating coz you start hesitating to pick up the phone in case its just another one of these pests. Makes me worry I might miss something important for real.

Someone rang me up and told me to eat my own cock, I told them I'd be up for it if I could. Then they said they'd sort it by taking out my ribs, but it would set me back £500!!! Is this a total scam or what?

On 19th November 2013 around 1:44pm, this person rang saying they were from Orange and wanted to double check if I was on the right pay-as-you-go plan. They asked how much I usually put on my phone each month, which seemed odd because if they were really from Orange, surely they’d have that info already? I said I usually top up about £5 every few months and that I didn’t use my phone much. Then they just said everything was alright and ended the call. I reckon they were actually trying to push phone contracts or something.
