8 yearsThere was silence for a bit, then a lady with a really heavy Indian accent started talking. I couldn’t catch a single word she said, so I told her that, and she just hung up on me. Tried to block the number through BT’s call protect, but it’s such a hassle and complicated to get it sorted.8 yearsWhenever I try calling, the line’s always dead.8 yearsYeah, it's only Dave.Dave8 yearsGot this number ring me twice over the past week. Absolutely nothing was said, just silence and then a quick 'goodbye'. Pretty odd.8 yearsThey called me two times, but the moment I picked up, the phone just went silent.8 yearsJust another spam call.8 yearsIt took him a bit to explain, then he started mentioning something about an accident of mine. I had to ask what accident he was on about, and he just said, "Your car accident." I asked why he thought I'd been in one, and then suddenly the call just dropped.8 yearsAbsolute pain, these calls! I got one today where all I heard was silence before a recorded “goodbye” message kicked in. I’m on the TPS and they keep ignoring it. There’s a £2,500 penalty for every unwanted call but never see anyone getting fined. The authorities seriously need to crack down and not just issue fines but also make these annoying callers cover the legal fees. Enough is enough!Telephone Preference Service8 yearsI picked up the phone, heard nothing for a bit, then suddenly an automated voice said "goodbye" and the call just ended.8 yearsI picked up the phone and it just went silent. I’ve noticed loads of calls like this lately from numbers beginning with 020. This one’s supposed to be on the TPS list to block such calls, but obviously it’s not working.Telephone Preference Service8 yearsNo message is ever left on my answerphone by these callers. I reckon it's one of those places that buys up active landline numbers to flog to firms wanting to market stuff. I guess they gotta get through the answering machine somehow too. The whole Telephone Preference Service seems useless against them.Telephone Preference Service8 yearsGot about 43 calls from this number all through the weekend.8 yearsThis number keeps buzzing me all the time but there's like a long silence before it stops. I tried ringing 1471 to find out who it was, but it didn't let me call back. Definitely won't be returning their call, so I'd say just dodge it if they contact you.8 yearsGot 5 calls within a couple of hours and answered once but nobody spoke. I checked the number with 1471 but decided not to ring back.8 years0161717841 I answered to nothing but silence, then a lady just whispered 'bye' before hanging up.8 yearsEvery time I pick up, no one speaks on the other end, so I've just gotten rid of the number.8 yearsFirst, there was a long silence before a lady suddenly said "Oh Hello" and then just cut the call. Seriously, don't call back this number, it could end up being really expensive!8 yearsReally dodgy scammer trying it again!8 yearsSomeone keeps ringing my phone but no one ever answers, really fishy and super irritating.8 yearsCan anyone tell me who just rang from 7?8 yearsThe caller abruptly disconnected.8 yearsI answered the call but there was no one on the other end. Tried calling back but no luck. Weird silence!Submit Your Own Report (161717841)
