Phone number ☎️ 01614916644 👆 is reported as a nuisance call repeatedly targeting individuals involved in vehicle accidents, often with no message left and calls disconnecting as soon as answered.

These individuals are nothing more than opportunistic solicitors. We inquired about the source of our phone number with them, and they confirmed that it was linked to the garage that worked on our vehicle, rather than our insurance provider. Our insurance company is currently looking into the matter, and we intend to inform the local police as this constitutes a significant violation of Data Protection regulations.

I've been receiving a fair few calls from the number 0161 4916644 lately, and it's quite bizarre. The moment I answer, there's nothing on the other end, just silence. Initially, they claimed to be reaching out regarding some accident claim. We made it crystal clear that we're not interested, especially since it pertains to an incident from over a year ago that was entirely our doing. Yet, despite our disinterest, they keep ringing repeatedly without ever leaving a message. It’s starting to make me suspicious-could this be some sort of scam? It’s certainly a bit unnerving, to say the least.

We received a call from this number yet again earlier today for the second time.

Same scenario here! The moment I answered, they hung up straight away! Just got a tune when I tried calling them back!

I reached out to Greater Manchester Police as Gatley falls within their jurisdiction. I’m keen to explore the steps I should take regarding this matter. I also wish to file a record of these calls with the police in my vicinity. Doing so will provide me with a log number, which will help track all the calls and enable me to request my phone provider to block the number. I'm not entirely clear on how this would stop them from calling me, but it seems like a solid plan. If anyone needs to contact GMP, their number is 0161-872-5050.

I've been having a bit of a nightmare with an accident claims hotline after my dad had a car crash just a few days back. It seems this lot is all about persuading people with their talk of "money left over from a compensation that we can claim." Honestly, they're no better than claim vultures! The moment you lodge a car insurance claim, your information gets flagged on some global database, enabling these chaps to rummage through and fetch your details, including your mobile number. It’s absolutely outrageous! What a right pack of charlatans!

Absolutely the same over here! That incessant background noise is beyond annoying!!! We were involved in a recent mishap, and we think that might explain why these individuals have managed to get hold of both our mobile numbers.

I received a call from 01614916644 earlier and they simply disconnected without a word. It's quite peculiar as I experienced the very same thing a few days ago. We've decided to block the number for good measure.

Received a call from this number on my mobile, but as soon as we answered, they hung up on us. When we tried to call back, all we got was some awful hold music. So, we decided to end the call. I'm having a tough time finding any details about this number despite searching high and low. It seems like a reverse lookup might be the solution, though it’ll likely cost something. Anyone got any tips to share?

I find myself in a similar predicament; it’s beyond frustrating! We did some digging for the number, but came up completely empty-handed. I’m considering checking out saynoto0870 to see if they’ve got any information on this lot. Surely there’s some action I can take? Maybe Ofcom could look into pursuing legal measures or something?

I'm in the same boat, getting rather fed up with this situation at this point.

This number has been a real nuisance, as we're receiving at least two missed calls from it every day. I’ve noticed it’s quite similar to others like 01612494491, 01614914333, and 01612494490. We’ve avoided calling back because it seems a bit fishy, but it’s incredibly annoying! Has anyone figured out how to stop this kind of bother?

Got two calls today, but when I tried returning them, all I got was some tunes playing.

Same old tale, really. The moment we answered, they hung up. Tried giving them a call back, but all I got was some kind of music on loop.

The number 01614916644 appears to originate from the Gatley area close to Cheadle in Cheshire. It seems these individuals have access to broadband services! 😄

I received a call but no one picked up when I tried to answer. When I returned the call, all I got was some annoying music. Seriously, how are these individuals managing to get in touch with us? And where on earth did they obtain our number? It's incredibly frustrating that these muppets are wasting our time like this. What a right pain!

I've had a look at this blog site regarding the other numbers that have contacted us, and it seems rather clear that these folks are nothing more than "ambulance chasers." They’re touting promises of compensation if you’ve been involved in a recent car accident-what a total scam! We actually managed to miss their call by a mere thirty seconds. Rest assured, we won't let this slide!

I've received about fifteen missed calls from this number in the past week alone. I've decided to ring them back on our office phone, but all I'm getting is some blaring music. It’s so frustrating!
