5 yearsThis number keeps bothering me, total scam, just block it.5 yearsI missed a call from this number but didn’t know who it was so I checked it here. Judging by the other comments, it could be Amazon, an insurance firm or maybe a funeral service. I’m going to block it because I get far too many scam calls already and since lockdown, it’s been like 6 every day, both morning and afternoon. Calling about funerals during this pandemic is really tactless. Please stop ringing me!Amazon5 yearsJust ignore this number and block it straight away.6 yearsHonestly no clue who called me yesterday, I wasn’t in at the time and didn’t get a message or anything. Then they rang again and still nothing. I checked the number and it said it was dodgy, so I’ve gone ahead and blocked it.6 yearsSome bloke rang asking for my daughter, who last had this number ages ago. He was trying to push a funeral plan on me. When I asked how he got my number, he claimed I did a survey. Total rubbish, obviously.6 yearsGot a call saying “This is Amazon, you gotta confirm your iPhone 6 order on your account, press 1 to cancel.” Total scam, they keep coming up with all sorts of reasons to freak you out.Amazon6 yearsHave you any idea how much funerals cost nowadays mate? You’re gonna learn soon enough. Don’t bother ringing this number ever again.6 yearsTried ringing but no answer, I usually ignore numbers I dont know anyway. The call was too short to even get to voicemail.6 yearsI just wanted to point out that the number 0161 768 5784 isn’t actually from Manchester. It’s traced back to India instead.ManchesterIndia6 yearsGot a call about a funeral plan at 18.50, but no one seemed to answer. What’s going on with the lockdown now?6 yearsGot a message about a missed call but my phone didn’t even ring. Blocked them straight away.6 yearsThey rang, left no voicemail. What is ofcom actually doing about these calls? Absolutely nothing!!6 yearsBurial arrangements, eh? Only if you fancy it. I'll pass, cheers!6 yearsHad a woman on the phone going on about funeral arrangements. I told her to call me again in 50 years. This is the second time they've called from this number. Total SCAM.6 yearsGood life, selling insurance.Lifescape6 yearsMy go to rule is simple: if I don't know the number, I just dont answer. If it's really important, they'll drop a voicemail. Most of these scammers and telemarketers count on folks not checking the caller ID or being too scared to miss out on a deal.6 yearsThey keep calling but never bother to leave a voicemail. I'm just gonna keep blocking them. Total spam!6 yearsGot a call from this number about an hour after I’d already dealt with a 0115 one, both trying to push insurance deals.6 yearsThe phone rang a couple times then stopped before the voicemail even kicked in.7 yearsSome bloke called me about funeral arrangements, said we chatted before (total fib).

I never pick up calls from 0161 anymore, not even giving it a chance!7 years01617685784 No sound on the line, probably a quiet call.7 yearsAbsolutely dodgy bunch... steer clear at all costs!7 yearsthe bloke who called was really rude and unpolite7 yearsGot a cold call off Prosperous Life about a funeral plan. They wanted to set up a home visit with one of their reps, who’d probably try to push an expensive deal with the typical hard sell tactics. Seen a piece in the Daily Mail from Nov 19 that blew the lid on their dodgy sales methods. Best to steer well clear.Prosperous LifeDaily Mail7 yearsI received a call from this number while sorting out a delayed and damaged parcel with the royal mail. I picked up, but all I heard was a recorded voice saying that no advisor was available and they'd ring back. After that, I decided to block the number.Royal Mail7 yearsI got a ring from this number and my phone flagged it as unsafe, so ive just gone ahead and blocked it.7 years01617685784 Cold calls should really be illegal. Folks who keep pestering with these calls clearly have nothing better to do. They just clog up our landlines all day. Since it’s a landline, why hasn’t the matter been handed over to the ICO or Ofcom to sort out? If everyone played their part, this wouldn’t be an issue. Honestly, if call centres can’t behave properly, they deserve to be shut down.ICO7 years0161 768 5784 Looks like theyre trying to find numbers that are actually being used!!

No need to do anything, we will ring you back’ and then it just ended the call.7 yearsI just hung up on this call thinking it was some dodgy scam. Then they left a voicemail calling me a total d###!
