Phone number ☎️ 01616403197 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance involving multiple calls daily from different numbers, mostly linked to an organisation named Beneficial. The callers often ask for a person who isn’t known to those receiving the calls and refuse to take ‘no’ for an answer.

Attempts to get removed from their list seem ineffective, as calls continue despite assurances. Callers sometimes remain silent or play call centre background noises. These calls are widely seen as spam and cause frustration, with numerous users blocking the numbers repeatedly only to be contacted again from new ones. The calls are associated with unsolicited surveys or insurance reviews and are generally unwelcome.
Reports on phone number 01616403197
6 yearsGot a random call from this number out of nowhere, no clue who it was. Honestly, I really think these cold calls should just be banned.7 yearsLoads of folks rang me from Beneficial asking for someone named June. They just wouldn’t stop calling and kept pushing even after I told them to leave me alone. They said if I just answered their questions, they’d remove me from their list, but I’m not having any of it. I even told them I’d report it as harassment to the police and they couldn’t care less. All the calls came from a Birmingham area code, 0121.Birmingham7 yearsI answered the phone and immediately it felt like one of those call centre calls, lots of background noise and people chatting away. Definitely a spam call - going straight on my block list!7 yearsThis number has tried calling me a couple of times yesterday and again once today. Every time I answered, they hung up right away. Seems like spam to me... Do you reckon I should just block it?7 yearsThis number keeps ringing me. Whenever I try to call back, it just says that the voicemail box is full and can't take any new messages. It's really annoying.7 yearsThey keep ringing my partner's mum over and over. Every time she picks up, they just hang up and then ring again. When we try calling them back, it just goes dead with no one picking up. Someone please get them blocked!7 yearsBeen getting calls from some woman at Beneficial loads of times, like nearly a dozen in a couple weeks. No clue where they grabbed my number from. I keep telling them to take me off their calling list. Even rang their number 01253808409 because it says they'll stop calling within a day, but nope, they keep blowing up my phone. When I try to have a calm chat with them, they just hang up on me. Proper frustrating!7 yearsThey call me almost every week from a new number, even tho I keep blocking them. Tonight this bloke lost it and just told me to F off coz I wasn’t paying attention or whatever. Proper annoying!7 yearsI picked up the phone and there was complete silence on the other end. After waiting a bit, I just said thanks for calling and being quite cheeky by not even saying hello.7 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from Beneficial, asking for a Paul Carrick. Told her she’d dialled the wrong number, but she just kept going, saying I could still answer a few questions. She kept interrupting me and ignored when I said I didn’t want to talk. This foreign call centre has rung me five times already, each time from a different number, always asking for that same person. They’re really rude, so I’ve had to block all their numbers.BeneficialPaul Carrick7 yearsHelpful at first, but kept ringing me up even after I asked to be removed from their list. They said if I didn’t answer their questions, they’d just carry on calling. Had to block them in the end.7 yearsAgain, a different number called and after that, I just blocked it. Beneficial or not, they keep changing their numbers.7 yearsJust another pointless call, same rubbish but a new phone number.7 yearsYesterday, I got a call from someone named Kevin, said he was from Beneficial Lifestyle Survey. He mentioned it was about reviewing life insurance.KevinSurvey7 yearsGot a call from Beneficial about some consumer survey. I told them to stop ringing me, but they just keep coming from different numbers. Ended up hanging up and blocking this most recent one.Beneficial7 yearsThis number keeps buzzing me like 4 times every day.Submit Your Own Report (0161 640 3197)
