Got a call saying there’s some dodgy tax issue going on with me, just ended the call and blocked the number straight away.

Got a call saying I had a warrant out for fraud with HMRC and that I’d be arrested. Then they told me to press 1 to talk, but just hung up straight after.

01617681696 - Somehow this number got both my mobile and home contacts - pretty sneaky if you ask me - just wish a lovely lady had rung me up 60 years ago - back then, she wouldn’t have hung up so fast - I could’ve chatted endless nonsense just like these do now - but honestly, nowadays it’s just a load of rubbish -

This number called me saying it was the IP and that there was some dodgy business happening on my internet connection! Felt a bit fishy to me.

Got a call from this number earlier but they didn’t leave any voicemail, so I just ended up blocking it.

This number keeps ringing me non stop. I actually programmed my phone so it only rings if the caller is in my contacts, so any unknown numbers like this one just get blocked automatically.

Lately, I keep getting calls every day from this number and a few others beginning with 161 on my mobile. I never pick up; I just let it ring out until they hang up. After looking it up on this handy website, realised loads of people are in the same boat. At night I leave my phone on silent, then in the morning I see how many missed calls there are. It used to get on my nerves, but now I couldn’t care less!

I've been getting loads of calls from this number and a few others like it. Every time they ring more than once, I just block them. When I do pick up, it's clearly some call centre nonsense since no one's actually there on the line.

Even after I made it clear I wasn’t interested anymore, they just wouldn’t stop bothering me. They kept pestering me about who I’d chosen instead. I said I hadn’t picked anyone yet, but it definitely wouldn’t be them. Despite that, they carried on pushing me, insisting on knowing who I’d gone with. I told them straight up that their attitude was really pushy and I don’t appreciate being pressured like that. They just denied it, saying they weren’t being pushy at all.

This lot have rang me like 39 times over the past few weeks, using different phone numbers each time. Does anyone know where I can make a complaint? Proper annoying!

Looks like I’m dealing with the same hassle as loads of others here. I had a chat with them last week about some kind of funeral plan, but I wasn’t interested in the end. Still, they keep ringing me from all sorts of numbers with just the last digit changing. Every time I pick up, the call just cuts off. I’ve blocked so many of these numbers now, I’ve lost track. It’s really frustrating how they just won’t take no for an answer 😡😡

I've already told them I'm not interested in any funeral plans, but they ring me loads of times every day. I've had to block them using BT Call Guardian, because every time they call, the last two digits of the number change. It's pretty annoying!

Got a ring from this number just now, 01617681696. Some bloke claimed to be Alex from Late Life Planning, saying he was following up on my question about funeral arrangements. I told him I’d sorted it already. He asked which company I used, but I told him that was private, then ended the call.

This number keeps ringing me like 5 times a day, and whenever I answer no one’s actually there, just loads of noise and chatting in the background. I’m seriously thinking about blocking it.

This number has been ringing me non-stop, like 15 times in just 4 days during work hours. Every time I ignore the call and block it, they come back using a slightly different number with one or two digits swapped. I block that one too, but then another pops up doing the same thing. It’s bloody frustrating, especially when I’m trying to concentrate on work.

Every time I answer, the call just drops immediately. I've had enough and blocked the number.

I've had this number ring me a staggering 16 times over just a few days! When you factor in all the related numbers, I've been bombarded a total of 207 times in the past fortnight. It's quite the coincidence, as I never had to deal with unwanted calls before I filled out an online application for a funeral plan a few weeks back. How peculiar!

Today I’ve had three calls from Manchester, which is strange as I don’t know anyone from there. I tried calling one of the numbers back, but when I rang from my landline, it said the number was out of service. Really puzzled by these calls!
