7 yearsEven though I live in Malaysia, this Manchester number called me twice. I didn't pick up, but I made sure to note down the information anyway.ManchesterMalaysia7 yearsI was about to block the number but then realised it was a BT one, and they were acting like they were about to cut my internet off again! Such a nuisance.10 yearsI've had a bunch of annoying calls even though I've been on the TPS list for ages. When will these firms finally get told to stop?10 yearsThis number has rung me a few times now, but whenever I pick up, they just end the call straight away. When I tried calling the number back, it played a message about some sort of error and told me to redial a different number (which I didn’t catch properly). Definitely seems dodgy to me.10 yearsAs soon as I picked up, they just dropped the call.10 yearsI've gotten a couple of calls, but there was no message left, and when I picked up, no one said anything.10 yearsI’ve gotten calls from this number a few times now. They never leave a message and usually hang up as soon as I pick up.10 yearsGot a call earlier but they didn’t bother leaving any message.10 yearsJust had a ring from 0161 738 1197 - some bloke claiming to be from an energy price comparison firm, asking for a Mrs Smith. I told him we’re sorted with Ecotricity and happy, and asked nicely to be taken off their list. But he wasn’t having any of it. Kept going on about helping me and getting the best deal - like I’m daft for not wanting it. Took nearly 5 minutes of politely telling him to buzz off before he hung up. He even started asking if I was a housewife or working - totally cheeky! Feeling proper annoyed about some stranger pestering me at home like that. Tried calling the number back to give him a piece of my mind, but just got a sad dead dial tone. Might try BT about blocking it but reckon they charge now. What a nightmare!SmithBT10 yearsi just had a call but no one spoke and then it got cut off.10 yearsThis number pops up on my caller ID several times a week, sometimes more than once a day. I’ve got BT phones that only allow calls from people on my approved list to ring straight through - everyone else has to say who they are first. But this lot just hang up or don't bother announcing themselves at all.10 yearsThis number keeps ringing me but I always avoid picking up since they never bother to leave a voicemail.10 yearsThese people are basically ambulance chasers. They called about a claim for my wife’s accident, said we might get compensation. I’ve dealt with them before - if the claim goes through, they take 20%. Nothing’s ever free with those lot.10 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be Microsoft UK, telling me to enter details on my computer to fix admin issues. I didn’t trust it and hung up, then blocked the number straight away.MicrosoftUKSubmit Your Own Report (0161 738 1197)
