Phone number ☎️ 01615297899 👆 is reported as a persistent scam and harassment source, often linked to dubious debt management or loan offers. Call recipients frequently experience silent calls, repeated ring attempts, or vague threats. Some callers claim association with legitimate organisations but provide contradictory or unclear information, suggesting fraudulent intent. Many users report multiple daily calls, attempts to extract personal or bank details, and use of spoofed, changing numbers to evade blocking. While a minority claim genuine debt advice help, the overwhelming consensus warns against engagement, emphasising risks of identity theft, financial loss, and privacy breaches.

Reporting to authorities and checking official registries for loan applications is recommended to avoid falling victim.

Not sure who rang me from this number, but when I picked up there was only silence. I tried calling back and got a message saying "number not recognised". Seems like a dodgy scam call with a fake number. I've blocked them straight away.

01615297899 - this bloke with awful English asked if I’d tried to get a £1000 loan with my number. Nope, I was after £200 for car brakes. Told him I've already googled the number and knew it was a scam, then he just hung up on me. Typical.

0161 5297899 keeps ringing me like 7 or 8 times each day, it's honestly so annoying. I picked up a few times before, but all I heard was heavy breathing and some weird background noise. Now I just ignore it since you never know if you get charged for answering. Feels like a total scam to me, best not to answer at all. Really wish there was a proper way to block them completely so they never get through.

Wimbledon Guild of Social Workers/Need More Time. They pretend to be a debt management firm (I’m employed and barely in debt) or sometimes claim to be from the DWP. They share the same board members as Comsave Credit Union. Been getting annoying calls and silent rings since 26/08/19 and 11/08/20. One social worker was struck off from 11/08/20, the other had conditions slapped on their practice from 29/08/19, and both have lost repeatedly at Social Work England Tribunals since then. The 28 day period to appeal after the last hearing on 06/04/21 just ended.

I can't express how much this service has assisted me.

Since I submitted an application for a loan on the internet, I’ve been getting incessant calls from this number. It’s like they won’t take a hint and just stop! Definitely feels like a scam to me, so I’ve had no choice but to block them!

I must admit, this caller has left me rather unnerved. For quite a while now, I've been receiving these peculiar calls. I usually pick up, but it’s just silence on the line, though you can distinctly hear that it's a call centre buzzing in the background. Once, a chap responded and shockingly knew my name. When I pressed him for details, he merely said, "I’m your friend." Now to those who've suggested we should just answer these calls - I did, and so have quite a few others. We aren't asking for these interruptions; it's our prerogative whether or not to engage. Living alone means that these types of calls can be quite unsettling. They often mention debts or loans, triggering a sense of dread about how they could possibly know my personal information, like my name, financial institutions, and even my date of birth. So frankly, it's wise not to answer calls from unknown numbers. On top of that, I received a text simultaneously, warning me that my phone’s NFC was being repeatedly scanned or something of that nature. Many of us have our bank apps on our mobiles, which is something to think about when you receive such alarming calls. And don’t be surprised if they ring you again from a different number!
5 years
Absolutely not! It’s clear there’s no useful information to be found. They ring you from another number and when I picked up, there was silence, but it was evident that it was from a call centre. I never requested these calls; I have a legitimate right to my privacy! It’s not a profession to invade someone’s space like this. If you’re keen to have a natter with them, go ahead, but don’t blame others here. And honestly, why are you even scrolling through “who’s calling me”? You must have some concern too, otherwise, what brings you here, for heaven's sake!

This number has been calling me repeatedly throughout the day and no one's said a word whenever I pick up. I got a bit wary because these calls started right after I was almost caught up in an HMRC tax scam. Since I didn’t get tricked, these calls began. I looked up the number and everything points to it being shady.

Received several calls from this number, and I must say, the person on the other end was quite impolite. They refused to disclose the name of their business. Strangely enough, I've now discovered that a debt collection agency has popped up on my Equifax report. A word of caution regarding these debt managers; tread carefully!

Called me and it was chaos on their end; I struggled to grasp what they were prattling on about apart from the fact that apparently I’d been refused a loan. The moment I mentioned that I hadn’t a clue what he was on about, he simply cut the line. Quite rude, really!

I had an inkling that 01615297899 was dodgy from the start. I've gone ahead and blocked it, but knowing these tricksters, they'll likely ring me from slight variations of this number.

I’ve had three calls from this number just today alone, and I’ve managed to miss about four others throughout the week. When I attempted to block it, my phone insisted the number was “invalid.” How can it possibly be “invalid” when it actually called me? It's all rather baffling!

this was a total scam about some debt help. they told me i owed money and tried to get me in some debt plan. the cash i gave them never went to who i owed, it just went straight into some fat cats pocket. dont get involved with any debt plans like this and never share your bank or card info, they’ll clean you out. also they make sure you cant call them back.

Received multiple calls from this number today, but every time I picked up, there was nothing on the other end. Eventually, I managed to connect with someone, and he immediately dives into a spiel about debts. He went ahead and recited my full name and address without even confirming it was me first - that's a blatant violation of GDPR regulations! He claimed I owed over £3,000, which is absolutely false. He introduced himself as part of the government's debt advice service. I told him flat out that if he's genuinely affiliated with the government, he ought to be well-versed in their own guidelines, considering he just breached GDPR, which could land his company in serious trouble. To top it off, he just ended the call. Clearly, this is nothing but a scam!
5 years
I received a staggering 13 calls today, all from some chaps insisting that I owe them money on a loan. I made it quite clear that I have no such loans, and even mentioned that I might have to involve the police due to their incessant harassment. The guy on the other end escalated quickly, becoming quite aggressive and shouting at me about how the police would sort me out. Honestly, it was quite unbelievable! Do yourselves a favour and block this number immediately!
5 years
Received a call from the same number a staggering eight times today whilst I was engrossed in my job. Curiosity got the better of me, so I decided to ring them back to figure out who might be so eager to chat. Instead of an answer, I was greeted with some rather cringe-worthy lift music. Best to steer clear of this one!
5 years
It would be absolutely splendid if there were a way to get through to an actual person instead of facing silence on the other end with every ring. After the eighth time in just over an hour and a half, it can get remarkably irritating, especially when you're trying to focus on your work. Honestly, did you used to do this for a living before discovering something more legitimate? For goodness' sake!!!

I received a call from these folks earlier today regarding a credit card I don’t possess, trying to entice me into some financial arrangement that I simply don’t require. I made it clear that I don’t wish to receive any further communications from them and have now added their number to my block list. It's undoubtedly a scam. What’s concerning is that there are countless individuals genuinely struggling financially at the moment who might be lured in by such tactics, especially in the midst of this pandemic.

What's the big deal about it being called harassment? Honestly, if you don’t pick up, it’s only natural they’ll have another go. All you’ve got to do is answer the call and kindly ask them to stop ringing, or just block the number altogether. It’s really that straightforward!
5 years
What on earth makes you think it's acceptable to tell people to shove off when they’re merely fulfilling their duties? It’s astounding how lacking in politeness you seem to be! Should you carry on like this, you might just find those calls persisting. Honestly, a simple request to cease the calls would suffice and resolve the matter quite effortlessly. Try employing a little more decorum, it goes a long way!

Ah, looks like I had a cheeky encounter with a similar one not long ago! Always a laugh, isn't it? When they started their spiel, I just had to play along. I said, "Absolutely not, I go by the name of Muhammed Mike," whilst he introduced himself as John Smith, classic scammer move! He was babbling on about how I supposedly fork out around £200 a month for debts. I just played coy and said, "Really? Do I now?" When he asked for specifics, I replied that I owed his missus and mum some dosh-just banter, pure nonsense! What a pair of muppets they are!
