Rings like twice a week but no one ever picks up, so I just ignore it now.

Got a call from this number earlier, claimed to be from some insurance review team. I told the bloke I was busy at work and couldn’t chat then, but he kept on going. Had to cut in and say I wasn’t interested, and that I'd deal with my insurance provider myself, thanks. I had to say it a few more times that I was at work and it wasn’t a good time. Then he snapped back with “why bother answering then, huh?” and just hung up on me.

Got another call from an 0161 number. I just don’t pick up, they’re all dodgy or telemarketers anyway.

I picked up and some bloke with an Asian accent said he was from a firm called “CGS” or something like that. He asked if I’d got my refund for bank fees. I just told him to “F*** off” and blocked the number straight away!

I didnt bother answering but looked up the number on here and seen what people said so blocked it. I usually dont pick up calls from numbers I dont have saved and if they dont leave me a message then straight to block.

Picked up the phone and as soon as I did, they just dropped the call. Blocked the number now, fingers crossed it stays blocked.

Some woman said she was from this company "CGS" or something like that, saying it was about some claim. I told her to remove me from their list and that I’m on the TPS, but she disagreed and claimed I couldn’t be. Lately, I had two firms say my info got leaked and since then, these calls have been nonstop. Proper annoying, honestly lol.

This lady was chuckling when I picked up the phone. She called me by my old name, but I’ve been married over 7 years now so they’re clearly using old info for whatever scam or scheme this is. I didn’t even reply, just ended the call and blocked the number.

Got a call today askin about my bank or something. The moment they brought that up, i just hung up and blocked the number. Total scammers. Better to just block em or not pick up at all.

Me and four mates all searched this number on here at the same time, which means they’re robocalling a bunch of people and hanging up right after one person picks up, leaving the rest of us confused about the missed call. Seriously, what’s the point of these scams? With nearly 10,000 folks looking up this number, it’s clear there’s still enough folks out there stupid enough to fall for this rubbish, making it worth their while to keep doing it!

Just got a call from this number. I answered with a hello, he was a bit slow replying back, then asked me for my name. I asked who it was, he started saying something but then hung up suddenly and didn’t ring again. Proper nuisance call.

Got a call from a mobile but they hung up before I could pick up, blocked the number using the site.

Total scam, dont bother answering. If you wanna find out whos ringing and be able to block them right when they call, try the app BLACKLIST, its seriously the best for stopping unwanted calls. It spots spam numbers straight away and blocks em quick. Ive been using it and honestly, its a lifesaver. No more having to put up with annoying calls every few minutes from these pests!

Didn’t recognise the number so I didn’t pick up, no voicemail left either. Feels like a dodgy sales call to me.

This number rang me up claiming to be about my bank account, and right away they were asking which bank I use and for my card details. Definitely don't trust this number, they're way more than just ordinary scammers.

If you put a block on it, how would you even tell if it’s still ringing your phone? Try Blokka instead. It stops numbers forever.

Got a call on my phone from a Manchester number but no message was left. I’ve already blocked numbers from Manchester and Glasgow because some of them did leave a message like "no worries, we’ll ring you again". It’s strange cause they never really want to have a proper chat and it makes me think maybe they’re up to something using this tech? Maybe I’m being paranoid, but honestly, just please make them stop ringing.

Got a call from this number today, 5th July 2018 at about 11:44 in the morning. I asked if they were on the TPS list and they said no, so I just blocked it straight away. Really wondering how they even got hold of my mobile number in the first place.

With the new GDPR rules, these folks are breaking the law. They’re supposed to get your written consent before keeping your details on their database. Plus, they’ve gotta ask you in writing if they can even get in touch. If they keep calling me, I’m definitely reporting them. Honestly, I reckon everyone here should do the same. And it’s always my mobile they ring too.
8 years
Just stop calling me, please!!!!

Such a hassle! They kept calling my mobile a while ago. I picked up just to tell them to stop bothering me - whatever it was they were trying to sell, I said I wasn’t interested and asked them to stop calling. Now they’ve started again, so I’ve blocked the number. Fingers crossed I don’t get any more calls!

Every time I pick up, there's just silence. It usually stops ringing after three or four tries. I've blocked the numbers but they keep calling from the same area code.
