This number has called me before, usually at the same time in the day. I always hang up once the answer machine picks up. I’m at my job during the day, so I know these calls are just scams aimed at people who’re home - like older folks, parents with little kids, or those not working. They all probably don’t have much money, so it’s awful. Honestly, these scammers deserve to be called Scummers.

Ring went through to the answerphone but no message was left. Clearly just another scam, nothing important at all.

Got a call from RNG Security, must be a scam. We’re on the TPS list so not sure how it got through but they hung up quickly anyway.

Got a call earlier today. They somehow knew my name and claimed they were fitting security cameras on my street, even mentioned the road name. Told them I already had all the security stuff sorted, then they just hung up on me. Blocked the number straight away. I'm on the TPS list, so they really shouldn't have been calling me. This definitely needs to be looked into by TPS.

Got a cold call from someone saying they were installing security cameras and alarms nearby, offering me a free quote plus a voucher. I said no thanks. Told them to remove my number from their list and not to ring me again. She promised they would, but honestly, I’m not convinced they will.

Got a annoying call today. I picked up and said “hello, this is the telephone preference service, how can I help?” then it just beeped and hung up on me. My number is signed up with the TPS, so these guys are clearly ignoring the rules. I’m blocking and reporting it - sounds like a sneaky scam cold call to me!

SOLAR PANELS My 86 year old mum got a call from this number and the woman on the other end was really pushy, trying to convince her to get solar panels. But my mum just told her she wasn't interested and said, "sorry, I’m not up for this chat" 😂🤣. Right after that, the lady just hung up! 😂

I received an unsolicited call even though I’m on the Telephone Preference Service list. The individual on the line was quite insistent about selling a home security system of some sort. I opted to hang up on them rather than engage.

It appears I've been inundated with calls from 0161 numbers lately, all suggesting some sort of exclusive promotional alarm installation. Quite frustrating, especially as I'm on the Telephone Preference Service list. I've chosen to politely turn down their offers and would recommend others do the same if they find themselves in a similar situation.

Somebody called me saying they were "Ellie" and wanted to talk about my home security. Why on earth would I start chatting about security with some random stranger ringing out of the blue? Made no sense to me at all.

I usually avoid picking up when I don’t recognise a number, so I just let it go through. They didn’t bother to leave a voicemail either. I had a look on this site afterwards and it seems like it's likely scammers calling. Cheers to who-called.co.uk for the heads up!
