Reports on phone number 01617105085
1 yearI received a call from this number, and when I picked up, a lady asked if I was James Hill. I told her she had the wrong person and asked her kindly to stop calling me. After that, I ended the call.James Hill1 yearI had my phone on silent during an important meeting, but these lot still managed to get through somehow, even when I’ve switched off all notifications. It’s really annoying that they find ways to bypass your phone’s settings like that. I only turn off notifications so my phone doesn’t ring in meetings, but they just don’t care. Honestly, it feels like they’re intentionally messing with you. Properly nasty behaviour.1 yearJust got a dodgy call from some scammers, best thing is to block and forget about it!1 yearI’m just blocking all unknown numbers now, too many scams going around.1 yearGot a call about housing but it was totally fake.1 yearTotal ripoff, watch out!1 yearGot a call from a Manchester number, and I live miles away from there. They started asking about fixing things in my home and mentioned something about a council house. I told them if they’re the ones calling, they should already know if it’s a council place or not. After that, they just ended the call.Manchester1 yearGot called by someone pretending to be from a housing repair company. They were asking for personal info and sounded really dodgy. Definitely a scam, watch out!1 yearThis number popped up on my phone and since the area code looked familiar, I picked up. After about ten seconds of nothing but silence, I kept asking if anyone was there or planning to say something. Suddenly, a woman yelled something really quick and then the call just ended. Quite strange!1 yearGot a call from someone claiming to be with the housing repairs team. She asked if I was with the council or a housing association. I told her I’m on the TPS and asked to be removed from their database. She just ended the call after that.Telephone Preference Service1 yearGot a missed call and no clue who it was.
