Phone number ☎️ 01616604289 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance mostly linked to scam or sales calls, often involving fake names and confusing debt claims.

Reports on phone number 01616604289
7 yearsI keep getting calls from these people who always say some random name, like they're trying to sell something or pull a scam. Happens pretty often and it's really annoying.7 yearsGot a call from some bloke abroad who was going on about me applying for a loan and owing risky debt. When I asked for his first name, he wouldn't give it, just said his last name and even messed up my title. Then, when I called him out as a con artist, he suddenly claimed the line was bad and cut off.7 yearsGot a call from a guy who sounded Indian, but the line was so poor I couldn’t make out a thing. Eventually, he just hung up on me. Honestly, just block and don’t waste your time picking up!India7 yearsThis is so annoying, I’ve blocked that number ages ago but now they’re ringing from a different one that looks almost the same. It’s crazy because they actually ask for me by name! How do they even find out our names like that? Someone really needs to sort these calls out, they’re such a hassle.7 yearsGot a missed call from 01616604289 but no voicemail or text was sent. I looked up the number here and seems like I won’t be calling back.7 yearsI've just put them on my blocked list.7 yearsSo I just got a call and they didn’t say a word, honestly these calls are driving me mad. I probably get around four of them every day now.7 yearsI answered the phone, and before I could say anything, the caller quickly said they were from solicitors and asked if I needed assistance.7 yearsSo got two calls, one from a woman with a foreign accent then later a guy claiming he was David. Total rubbish from start to finish. I told him he was part of some government debt scheme and that he was actually ringing from Badajoz, but the number was a Manchester 05 code. Had a bit of fun confusing him for a good while!DavidBad ErrorManchester 057 yearsGot two calls from them, first a woman with an accent, then a bloke called ‘David’ who sounded foreign too. Total rubbish, I told him he was part of some government debt scheme and claimed he was in Baderr, but the number showed Manchester 05. Had a good laugh messing with him for a bit.DavidManchester7 yearsBeware of the number 10161 660 4289 - this caller claimed he was ringing from some kind of credit investigation agency, but I'm pretty sure it's a scam!7 yearsSomebody called me claiming it was the national debt helpline, but I hung up straight away and decided to block the number.7 yearsWhy do I keep getting bombarded by muppets from Manchester trying to con me into buying all sorts of rubbish like PPI claims and coffins? Honestly, these twats should just get a real job instead of wasting everyone’s time.ManchesterPPI7 yearsGot a call from someone claiming they were with the FEA, sounded fishy to me.FEA7 yearsIt rings non stop all the time, everyday!7 yearsgot this automated voicemail sayin a call was made by some data source? figured it was marketing but they keep ringin me daily. tried blockin the number and even pressed 9 to stop, but no luck so far.7 yearsThey rang me asking for a made-up name, so I told them to jog on.7 yearsGot called two times within five minutes, totally annoying. First time, just silence, no one spoke. Second time, some robot with an American accent acting like they were from BT, just trying to get me to say something so they could keep going with the scam call. Definitely ignore these.Submit Your Own Report (0161 660 4289)
