We've been receiving calls from this number multiple times each day. As soon as we pick up, the line goes dead. Quite perplexing, really!

I've had quite enough of these incessant calls from the same lot. They seem to ring non-stop! I reckon it might be time to consider changing our number altogether.

We've had no incidents whatsoever, and we've never taken out insurance with Swinton, so it appears this is simply cold calling. We've not answered any calls from this 0161 number and have no intention of doing so, but it’s quite vexing. We sincerely hope these callers will just take a hint and stop bothering us. We’re also not keen on dropping them an email because we’d rather not hand over our email details. Nice try with the "solutions," but let’s just say I wasn’t born yesterday!

My partner has been inundated with calls from these strange numbers, and it's baffling. The moment he picks up, they hang up! He's never been in an accident or made a claim for any injuries whatsoever. We reckon these callers are merely fishing for business, dialing as many numbers as they can in a cold outreach frenzy. It's quite puzzling, as he's never even associated with Swintons! He also receives calls from those Claims Advisory folks. Honestly, I'm flabbergasted as to how they even got hold of his mobile number.

I really wish these callers would just give it a rest. Every time you pick up, there's never a soul on the other end when you dare to return the call. They seem to have this knack for ringing a couple of times before hanging up. It's beyond frustrating! I mean, how on earth did they manage to get hold of my number in the first place, especially considering I’m ex-directory? It's positively bewildering!

It seems we encountered an answering machine when we tried to call, as the line was busy at the time. The phone only rang once, yet now we’re inundated with daily messages from this number, which is rather bothersome, to say the least.

We’re absolutely inundated with calls from this number, and to say it's driving us round the bend would be an understatement! We’re listed in the X directory and have been for ages, so we know someone’s just going about their business. However, for crying out loud, we’ve asked them repeatedly to remove us from their list. Despite our efforts, the calls keep coming, and it’s becoming intolerable!

I've no idea who this bloke is; they keep ringing me incessantly. I’m utterly fed up with their constant calls!

Alright everyone, here’s the deal: just pick up the phone or give them a ring back. The company in question is Chameleon. It appears Swinton sent them the wrong details about us supposedly being involved in an accident. Honestly, they’re just trying to assist, and it's a local rate call too! We’ve never been in an accident, mind you. When I called them back, a lovely gentleman sorted everything out for us in no time at all. They swiftly removed us from their list! Just to clarify, these folks are NOT DEBT COLLECTORS-how amusing!

Did you find it quite upsetting when you had to hike up everyone else's premiums for a rather grumpy claim?

I'm absolutely sick to death of these clowns! Every time they ring, they hang up as soon as I pick up. I've tried calling them back, but no one answers! We’ve even taken out car insurance with Swinton and made it clear that our number should be off-limits for any marketing calls! Honestly, it’s not worth the hassle of saving a few quid if it means giving these muppets our personal information. They won’t see a penny from us ever again!

I just received a call from this number, claiming to represent Hastinings Insurance Services. To be honest, we felt quite uneasy about the whole thing, and as soon as we mentioned that we weren’t sure what the call pertained to, the gentleman abruptly hung up. It really gives off a vibe of desperation, trying to associate themselves with a well-known insurance company, when in reality, they seem more like opportunists looking to prey on unsuspecting individuals. Quite dodgy, if you ask me!

It's not actually Swinton that's reaching out; it's a third-party call centre that's been contracted. This lot have somehow acquired the contact details of Swinton customers and are trying to nudge them into switching to another firm. They earn a tenner for each call they make that results in a successful transfer, which is why they keep hounding folks.

Received a call but there was nothing on the other end. Just a ghostly ring, if you will.

Just a heads up about the number 01614286300-it's Swinton Insurance. I've had no issues whatsoever with them. Really straightforward, if you ask me!

We've never had any sort of mishap and have never purchased insurance from Swinton, so I suspect this is just a case of them cold-calling. We haven't answered any calls from this 0161 number and have no plans to do so, as it's becoming quite tiresome. We really wish these callers would take a hint and stop bothering us. The thought of emailing them to request they cease contacting us is off the table since I know they'd then have access to our email address! Nice try, “solutions,” but I’m not fooled easily!

I keep getting hounded by these ambulance chasers urging me to put in a claim against someone who backed into me, even though I've told them repeatedly that neither my passenger nor I were hurt in the incident. They're absolutely relentless! It’s frustrating, especially since they’ve obviously got my contact details from Hastings Direct Insurance. What a nuisance!

This number keeps pestering me with calls. Whenever I pick up, there's just a voice saying hello before the line goes dead. They tend to ring me around midday nearly every day, which is quite infuriating. I did try ringing back, only to get a recorded message about insurance - I promptly hung up after that.
