3 yearsThis number called me, just a load of scammers. Don’t pick up and blocked straight away. Another bogus call from MANCHESTER!!! Told ’em to **** off via message!!!MANCHESTER3 yearsEnergy services company.3 yearsTotal scam, watch out!3 yearsThey ring me over and over, so I've blocked the number now.3 yearsthey use loads of different numbers, so i always look em up here if im not sure who’s calling ☠☠☠5 yearsThey keep ringing for ages and on the rare times I answer, there’s this awkward silence that makes me suspicious it’s some kind of scam.5 yearsGot three missed calls from this number, looked it up online and seems to be a scam from MCR. Blocked it straight away. Best to not pick up calls from strangers, always check who they are online first, then maybe ring back if you think it’s legit. Otherwise, just wait - real people usually ring again if it’s important.Manchester5 yearsWithout a doubt, this is a dodgy operation. They're pretending to be from the local council and insisting on getting hold of personal information and payment. As someone who has their own property, it’s obvious this is nothing but a scam.5 yearsHad a call from some robotic voice, no clue who it was but definitely seemed like a scam. When I didn’t answer it, the voice said I was being rude 😂 Honestly, the rude bit is making these random calls, chattering away forever without checking if anyone’s actually listening, then branding me rude for just trying to end the call and mind my own business 🙃5 yearsA caller, sporting a noticeable foreign accent, rang me up and inquired about any debts I might have picked up during the pandemic. Curiously enough, she called me John, which isn’t my name. I let her know I wasn’t in any financial trouble. She expressed her gratitude before abruptly ending the call. Quite the odd exchange, if you ask me!John5 yearsThey claimed to be from the council and asked about any repairs we were expecting. Then they wanted our WhatsApp number to "check" the damages for a property valuation. After that, they asked which council we're with. Wouldn't trust this number at all.WhatsApp5 yearsGot a call from a woman talking about debts and the government. I told her I don’t owe anything and to buzz off, so fingers crossed they leave me alone now. Sick of all these annoying calls.5 yearsSomeone called saying they were from the council, asking about any repairs we’ve got lined up and wanted my WhatsApp number to "check" what needed fixing to do a property valuation. They also asked which council we belong to. I’d be wary of this number, doesn’t seem right.WhatsApp5 yearsGot a call from an unfamiliar number. They didn't leave a voicemail, so I just figured it was spam and blocked them.5 yearsno idea who this is5 yearsNever stops calling!5 yearsI picked up the phone only to have someone request to chat with my wife, despite the fact that this is my personal mobile. I inquired about how they obtained my number, but before I could get any answers, they hung up. I've since added them to my blocked list!5 yearsJust got a call from them and they dropped the call straight away.5 yearsNo idea who that was. I didn't answer.5 yearsNumber 0162 7381651 might be a scam, just ended the call abruptly.5 yearsGot a call from a lady claiming to be from some debt advice service, trying to talk about a new government scheme or something linked to covid. I wasn’t really paying much attention but she kept asking if I had any debts. Told her I wasn’t interested, ended the call and then blocked the number.COVID5 yearsJust hung up and blocked it. So fed up with these calls.5 yearsWhat a nuisance! Just blocked the number!5 yearsSuch a nuisance! Just going to block it!5 years0161 738 1651 is a total SCAM! Just block the number already!5 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be from a debt collection firm, they were really rude and almost getting aggressive. When I rang back the number seemed to have a weird ringtone that didn't sound like the UK, so I reckon they might be faking the Manchester George location.Manchester5 yearsHow did they even get my details? I just kept asking them questions - who are you and what do you want. Then they just hung up on me. Total muppets.5 yearsThey rang me a few times but the woman on the line was really rude, just cut me off and then blocked the number.5 yearsGot a couple of calls claiming to be from some debt firm, took me about half a minute to answer, they sounded pretty pushy. Told them I'm not interested and just ended the call. Blocked the number now - these calls are such a nuisance to deal with!5 yearsI’ve not picked up since they keep ringing me non stop.5 yearsNo voicemail was recorded; kindly refer to the other comments for more context.5 yearsWeirdos for sure.5 yearsGot a call from 01617381651 asking if they’d reached me. I just hung up straight away and blocked it. Honestly, I’m so over these annoying calls now.5 yearsI received a call from someone claiming to be from the council regarding repairs, but I don't even reside in a council property. My postcode is YO15 2ED. Quite baffling, to say the least!5 yearsI have no idea who that was.5 yearsEarlier today, a rather unexpected call came through to our household, with the caller seeking one of our family members. Unfortunately, that individual wasn’t available at the moment. When we pressed the caller for their identity, they mentioned it was regarding some sort of financial obligation. The thing is, none of us have any outstanding debts. It’s quite puzzling, really-how on earth did they manage to track down our landline number, considering we’re ex-directory?5 yearsGot a few calls today from 0161 738 1651 out of the blue, really annoying.5 yearsIt keeps callin, I usually just let it go on and on to waste their time, probably one of those scams.5 yearsI didn't pick up the phone as it was an unknown number.5 yearsThat felt dodgy, I must say. She claimed to be from a home repair service, but when I inquired if the call was from Manchester, she abruptly ended the conversation. I reckon she was after some personal details.Manchester5 yearsAbsolute scam, stay away!5 yearsIt just rings a couple times then cuts off.5 yearsGot a quiet call that just cut off after a few secs.5 yearsSomeone called saying they were from a finance firm I’ve never heard of. They started asking all these security questions which I just made up answers to, but somehow it was enough for them to get through. Then they went on about my supposed debt like it was for real.5 yearsThe moment I picked up the phone, they just cut off without a word. They've been blocked now.5 yearsI've been getting repeated calls from this number, but they never bother to leave a voicemail. Quite annoying, really!5 yearsReceived a call from a bloke claiming to be Michael from Debt Advisory Services, who wanted to discuss some new government initiative regarding debt consolidation. However, he promptly ended the call when I inquired about how he managed to obtain my number. Quite the dodgy situation!MichaelDebt Advisory Services5 yearsReceived a call around 6:15 PM from a mobile number that turned out to be a spam. They didn't bother leaving a voicemail. I've had my fill of these mystery callers, so I've gone ahead and blocked the number. Cheers, Noel.Noel5 yearsI picked up the call, but it cut off instantaneously.5 yearsThe call disconnected as soon as I picked it up.5 yearsGot a call from an Asian man pushing some government-backed debt relief offer. Not something I’m interested in, pretty sure it’s a scam. Blocked the number now.5 yearsGot a call out of the blue, some scammer pretending to be from a debt help service.5 yearsGot a random call from someone pretending to be from a debt help agency. Total scam, obviously.5 yearsSounds like a couple working together on a scam, she makes the calls and he pretends to be her boss - really wish they wouldn’t do that.5 yearsThey knew my name and claimed to be from some government dept dealing with debts, trying to find out if I owed anything on credit cards or similar. When I asked where they got my info, the woman said she’d ask her manager and then told me it was from some consumer national database. I had to keep telling them three times to remove me from their calls because they kept pushing if I had debts, which I wouldn’t say, just said I didn’t need any help and stayed calm. Definitely sounded like a scam to me.5 yearsThey already knew my name and claimed to be calling from Freedom Finance. I told them I wasn’t interested, but she kept talking. I just said no thanks again and hung up.Freedom Finance5 yearsThey keep ringing but I never pick up. I've ended up blocking the number now.5 yearsI got a call from this number and, after picking up, they just went silent. I've since blocked them.6 yearsGot a call from someone saying they’re from EU resorts, part of some timeshare scheme. Felt fishy so they put me through to a timeshare specialist who then set up a call with a legal adviser.EU Resorts6 years01617381651 rang me about updating timeshare info. I asked where they got my details from and they just cut off. GDPR isn’t really doing its job, is it?6 yearsKeeps ringing but never leaves a voicemail.6 yearsLady calling, claiming to update timeshare info, not trying to sell anything. Totally a common trick to get you involved in some dodgy scam. JUST BLOCK HER!Best6 yearsthey said they were updating some timeshare records and asked if i'd paid the maintenance fees. gonna wait and see how many deals i get pushed for bonus weeks now!6 yearsGot a call saying they wanted to confirm if I still had a timeshare, apparently to keep their records up to date.6 yearsI usually ignore calls from numbers I don’t know. This time it went straight to voicemail and they just hung up right after, no message left.6 yearsThose timeshare scam people are really something else.7 yearsGot the same call, they were saying I could get a week in Tenerife and some legal support to get rid of a timeshare, sounded fishy to me.Tenerife7 yearsThis number has rung my landline (which I never pick up) two mornings running - no voicemail left. I’m ex-directory. It also called my mobile the same two mornings, just minutes after the landline rings. I don’t answer unknown numbers anyway. That’s 4 calls over 2 days! I always report these annoying calls to https://ico.org.uk, and if I think it’s a scam or risky, I also tell https://www.actionfraud.police.uk/. We need to report these sorts of calls to help stop them.

Didn’t manage to pick up either time.7 yearsGot a call from this number, a woman claiming she was calling from an English number but actually based in Tenerife. She was pushing a free week in Tenerife if you book before May 2020 and was offering legal help to recover money supposedly tied up in a timeshare in Malta. I asked her to email me the info but she couldn’t send anything. She said her name was Jennifer but gave no other details. She promised to ring back later, but I’ve blocked the number now.TenerifeMaltaJennifer7 yearsLike always, I ignore calls from numbers I don’t know. Right after, I get a voicemail but there’s nothing on it, no talking or anything, just silence. Wish I could block more of these but my block list is already packed.7 yearsthey hung up as soon as they heard my deep bloke voice!!7 yearsGot loads of calls, but after reading these reviews, I just blocked them all and added to my blacklist.7 yearsShe claimed to be ringing from some Timeshare Registration place. While she was talking, I decided to look the company up online. Before she could explain what she wanted, I kept asking who exactly she was. Turns out, no such company exists and she hung up as soon as she knew I’d caught on.Timeshare Registration7 yearsEven after telling them my mum had passed away, they keep ringing asking for her. It’s really upsetting for the kids who pick up. Best to just ignore these calls!7 yearsI told the woman she was talking rubbish and that I’d look up the company online to see if they were dodgy or not! Honestly, they’re the worst kind of scammers.7 yearsJust like what others have said, this call is coming from Tenerife but showing up as a UK number. They’re saying you can get free accommodation and a lawyer to help fight timeshare mis-selling. Totally rubbish.TenerifeUK7 yearsOh, it’s luxury linx once more. They say they’re just a holiday firm setting up trips to Tenerife so you can chat to solicitors (but they don’t seem to have a clue about these solicitors or any way to reach them) for free, supposedly to help you cancel timeshares. I kept them going for a bit then told them I wasn’t bothered.Luxury LinxTenerife7 yearsGot a missed call from this number, looks familiar. It’s a UK number but calling from Tenerife, trying to chat about a dodgy timeshare deal, the same lot who sold it to me originally! What a joke!UKTenerife7 yearsComplete waste of time, just ignore them.7 yearsGot called again by some firm abroad but using a UK number, they called themselves luxury linx tenerife, claiming to offer a free holiday and a solicitor to help with timeshares.
