7 yearsI had a really awkward experience with this funeral company - their sales team is super pushy! When I mentioned I’d asked the CO-OP for a quote, they acted like they were actually part of CO-OP. Turns out they’re from this company called 'Prosperous Life' which is well-known for dodgy practices in funerals. There's even that Guardian article that calls them out for scamming people.COProsperous LifeThe Guardian7 yearsThis number keeps ringing me even after I blocked it! How on earth do they get through?7 yearsThis funeral plan kept ringing me up like over 24 times in just two days. I’ve blocked their number, but they’re still trying to reach me. It’s getting really annoying.7 yearsI decided to check out dignity funeral plans and now my phone won't stop buzzing with calls, all from numbers that seem nearly the same except for the last few digits. So irritating and a right nuisance.7 yearsThis number kept ringing me like 9 times within one hour, even after I’d already blocked it! So annoying!7 yearsBloody hell, I get like 5 calls every week from these irritating lot with numbers that are almost the same but just a tiny change in the last digit. I block one, then another pops up with a different ending and the whole nonsense begins all over again. So frustrating!7 yearsHonestly sick of these muppets, they should just find a real job instead of calling me all the time.7 yearsAt first it was completely quiet whenever I answered, then I caught the background noise of what seemed like a call centre, but no one actually spoke!7 yearsThey rang me up twice within one hour. Said they were giving info about funeral arrangements, but really they were pushing monthly funeral insurance. When they called the second time, I told the person they’d already been in touch earlier, and he just cut me off without even a sorry or bye. Pretty rude! 😀7 yearsThis number, or ones that look very much like it, keeps ringing me up nearly 10 times a day. I just ignore them and don't pick up at all.7 yearsThey keep ringing me and somehow manage to get past my block. It's driving me mad! The other day alone, they called me like 11 times. Really annoying now.7 yearsThey keep ringing me even tho I blocked them! I don’t know how they are still getting through. It’s so annoying, the other day they called me like 11 times! I’m seriously fed up now.7 yearsSounds like they’re planning a funeral service - if they keep going like this, they’ll be needing one for themselves!7 yearsJust like someone mentioned before me, I mostly ignore calls from 0161 numbers. From what I've found, these calls usually turn out to be pointless and not worth my time at all.7 yearsThese lot are proper pests, honestly, not a single day passes without them calling! Feels like they’ve singled me out or summat. If I could just have a quick word with whoever’s behind it... But yeah, best not to pick up at all and see if it can be blocked somehow.7 yearsDont know who it was, ignored it both times it buzzed my phone.7 yearsSomeone just rang me trying to sell funeral plans. Bit of an odd call to get out of the blue like that!7 yearsI picked up and immediately hung up. My missus has got so frightened she won’t even want to step outside now.7 yearsKept ringing me over and over but I never picked up, so in the end I just blocked the number.7 yearswhat a hassle, just ended up hanging on the line. total waste of time.7 yearsNot sure who it was, but they rang me again.7 yearsHonestly, I tend to be pretty wary when I see calls from 0161 numbers. I don’t know anyone with that area code, so I just block them out most of the time. In my experience, half the calls from that prefix have been annoying or scams. If it’s something important, they’ll probably leave a voicemail - but usually, they don’t bother.Submit Your Own Report (0161 768 5780)
