8 yearsLast week I got called four times by someone who wouldn’t say who they were. I either ended the call or they did, but never found out who it was.8 yearsLike loads of others here, I just got a call a couple of mins ago. Proper annoying!8 yearsThere was a bit of a hold up before someone speaking with an Asian accent finally came on and asked for my wife by name. When I asked who it was, the caller rambled on about some sort of survey and then started reciting my name and address, asking me to verify them. I told them no and demanded they stop calling and take my number off their list, then they just disconnected. This is the second time in a few days this same number has rung me, the first time they ended the call without saying a word.8 yearsMy mum got a call on her home phone from this number (even though I don’t actually know it myself) and the caller asked straight up for me by name. I wouldn’t say anything until they said who they were first, but as soon as I asked, they just ended the call and haven’t rung back since. Seriously, who rings you and won’t even say who they are?8 yearsJust like the others mentioned here!8 yearsI answered and the woman just greeted me with a simple hello, but you could hear loads of call centre noise in the background. I ended up hanging up straight away, looked up the number here, and then used 1572 to block it. These calls are so irritating and a total waste of time - there’s just way too many!8 yearsGot a ring from a Manchester area code, bloke named Brian on the line. His voice was all whiny and thick Asian accent. Said it was about a "home habits" survey or summat. Didn't fancy it one bit!ManchesterBrian8 yearsThey keep ringing and no one picks up, then there's some robot saying goodbye - all a waste of my time when I might be missing a real call. These folks are such a nuisance, always hiding behind fake numbers. Seriously, they should be cracked down on and slapped with fines already!!8 yearsThey called me but left no voicemail when I didn't pick up.8 yearsThis number keeps ringing non stop, really fed up with it now. Whoever you are, just stop calling me. Goodbye.8 yearsFor the last few weeks, I've been bombarded with loads of calls. They constantly demand my address and postcode, but never get it right. After a couple of minutes chatting and answering some questions, I told them I needed to leave. No sooner had I hung up than they rang me back immediately. I told them not to ring again, but they came straight back asking for just another minute. I hung up again, and when I said it was starting to feel like harassment, I was insulted and told to "drop dead." The calls haven’t stopped yet. Proper fed up with it now.8 yearsMassage services available!!8 yearsProper pain this lot, I’m ex-directory and whenever they ring, I say it’s Accident and Emergency. They just hang up straight away or I say, “You’ve got the wrong number mate.” If they ask how I know, I just say who they’re trying to reach and tell ‘em “See, told you!” before putting the phone down. Yet somehow, they keep calling again and again!Emergency Services8 yearsToday, that very number rang me up claiming I owed them some money and they wanted it paid back. What really threw me off was they started talking in Hindi, which was pretty odd! Watch out, folks, this seems sketchy.8 yearsNot sure what was going on, but the person left the line hanging before finally saying goodbye. Weird!8 yearsWe've been getting calls on our office number from 0161 643 8140 every couple of days. When we pick up, there's just silence for a bit, then after maybe 10-15 seconds, a woman's recorded voice says 'Goodbye' before hanging up. It's really annoying and disrupting our work.8 yearsI’m so fed up with getting calls every single day, it’s driving me mad!8 yearsIt’s only just before noon and I’ve already had 8 calls today. Each time it’s just some automated message ending with “goodbye.” So annoying!8 yearsGot a call from some bloke looking for my mother in law who died back in Feb. He kept calling me a liar and refused to put me through to any manager. Claimed he was with IPRO, but that was obvious nonsense. Our number isn’t listed publicly and we’ve signed up to block spam calls, so no idea how he got through.IPRO8 yearsMy phone buzzed three times today, 5th July 2018, and once the day before. Every time, it was just quiet when I answered and then a recorded voice saying goodbye. Feels like harassment, honestly, but also kinda worrying. Really don’t know how they managed to get hold of my number.8 yearsGot two calls on my work number this morning. Ignored the first one, and missed the second. Neither left a voicemail, just some sort of call centre noise in the background. I've gone ahead and blocked the number now. :)8 yearsWe only just got our new landline, which is supposed to be unlisted, but this number has been ringing us non-stop for the past week, like two or three times daily. When I pick up, there’s nobody there. I’ve started ignoring the calls now, but they just keep coming through.8 yearsSuch a pain!8 yearsGot a call from this number thrice in just one hour but when I picked up, there was no one there. Proper annoying!8 yearsI've been getting calls from these lot nonstop for about two years now, always using different names like Citizens Advice, Benefits UK, National Survey, House & Home Survey, and a bunch more. They're clearly trying to fish for my personal info! My advice is don’t even engage with them - just hang up and block the number straight away. They're proper annoying!Benefits UKCitizens AdviceNational SurveyHouse & Home Survey8 yearscalled me a few times today but all I got was a voicemail with some automated message that just ended with goodbye.8 yearsThis number 01616438140 keeps calling me and it's so annoying, especially since my number is supposed to be ex-directory. My husband works as a BT engineer and he isn't impressed at all. Definitely a nuisance caller, so don't share any info with them.8 yearsI had a really bad experience with this call centre - they pretty much force you into answering their questions, not very pleasant at all.8 yearsI got a call from some bloke who just started swearing, demanding to speak to some woman. He threatened to keep calling if I didn’t put her on. First ring was at 14.35, then again at 14.37 and once more at 14.44. He kept insisting he’d keep ringing until he got through. Proper annoying, especially when they refuse to say who they are. Blocked him straight away.8 yearsIt was a bank holiday Monday afternoon, and I quickly grabbed the phone. The person on the other end was asking for someone with a name close to mine. I tried to find out who she was, but her Indian accent was hard to catch. When I asked her where she was ringing from, she just cut me off, quite rudely. Honestly, whoever this is, I don’t want any part of it. Blocked now.Bank HolidaySubmit Your Own Report (0161 643 8140)
