I've been getting calls from this number over the past few days. I finally picked up and the person on the other end said it was about PPI claims that supposedly shouldn't have been tax deductible. They mentioned HMRC is handing out payments on these claims. The lady said the company was named DMS, but I told them I'd ring back because they wanted my ID and date of birth first. I looked them up here before calling back and I'm really glad I did!

I've taken the step of blocking this particular number, but it seems to be just one of many that incessantly ring my phone. I've managed to block quite a few, a total of 17, to be precise! Despite my repeated requests for them to take my number off their calling list, they continue to harass me. It's been almost a year of this annoyance now-truly tiresome!

Got a call about some insurance survey the other day. Didn’t fancy it one bit, so I blocked the number. I’m never gonna buy from a firm that just rings outta the blue like that.

They rang me a couple of times but just ended the call both times. So I've gone ahead and blocked the number. Like my grandma used to say, anyone who truly wants to reach you will always leave a message.

Usually these scams pop up midweek, like on a Wednesday. Best thing to do is just block the number and not bother with it.

Got a call from a bloke with a thick foreign accent claiming he was conducting a survey in the UK. He kept calling me by my first name, which is pretty creepy. Not sure how these dodgy people keep getting hold of my number. This was the second call within 10 minutes, so I ended up telling him pretty bluntly to do one! Also noticed the same number rang me yesterday.

So I was chatting to a member of my family on the phone, totally nothing to do with this number. Right after I ended that call, I noticed I'd missed a call from 0161 738 1629. My dad always tells me to check unknown numbers before calling back, so I thought I'd see what was up. I looked it up on who-called.co.uk and, as I suspected, it turned out to be a scam. So, I blocked the number straight away and reported it on this site. Glad I checked first!

I got a call from this number but as it was unfamiliar, I just let it ring out. After checking it here, it seems like loads of folks think it’s a scam, so I’ve gone ahead and blocked it and also reported it.

I got a call from an Asian lady who actually used my name, which was a bit surprising. Her accent made it tough for me to catch everything she said. Then she started talking about life insurance, so I just ended the call right there.

Got a call from 01617381629, the person sounded like they had an American accent and talked something about media. It felt a bit dodgy, like a scam, so I just ended the call. I've blocked the number since then.

Received a few calls from 0161 738 1629 over the last week, about 5 times, but didn’t pick up as I didn’t recognise it. Finally answered about 10 minutes ago and the caller, who sounded Indian, was asking for my mum by her first name only. I told him he had the wrong number. After a quick look here, I blocked them. A couple of weeks back they also rang saying they were from some survey company, told them to remove my number, yet they keep ringing anyway. Quite annoying!

Today I got a phone call from 0161 738 1629. The person asked if they was speaking to me and when I asked who it was, they said they were a financial adviser. They wanted to know what kind of car I drive and where I bought it from. Then they asked what I would spend £8,000 on if I took out a loan. When I asked what the call was about, they said it was just a survey. I told them I needed to go but they said it wouldn’t take long and that they would call me back tomorrow. I ended the call. I wouldn’t trust this number at all!

Got a call earlier and my phone instantly marked it as maybe a scam. Picked up and some Indian lady with a strong accent was asking for me by my first name. I just answered with a quiet ‘Hello?’ like a kid. When she asked again, I did the same. Then I said ‘Mum?’ in the same way and she hung up straight away! I rang back, heard a tune playing then a recorded message in a really thick Indian accent. These calls are driving me mad, so I’m gonna mess about with them a bit before blocking and cutting them off for good!

This is clearly a dodgy survey call. They addressed me personally, claiming to represent some media survey organisation, and then they inquired if I had life insurance. I mentioned that I couldn’t chat as I was busy at work, hung up, and swiftly blocked their number.
