This number 0161 8089696 called me, was silent for a bit, then suddenly asked if I was (they used my actual name). When I asked what it was about, they just hung up. Strange behaviour.

This Manchester number, 0161 808 9696, keeps ringing me up on my mobile over and over. I just don’t pick up anymore and hang up quickly if I do. It’s getting a bit much.

This person got a bit rude when I asked them to remove my number from their list since I had no interest. They accused me of not paying attention, which was a bit cheeky. I told them to buzz off and have now blocked the number.

Got a message on my voicemail that was really irritating, something about credit control I think. Definitely spam, so I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number!

I've been getting calls from this 0161 number almost every day, but it's not just the same one - they keep switching the last few digits each time. No matter how many times I block them, they just won't stop ringing my mobile. It's really annoying!

Got a spam call but just ignored it.

This number was totally unknown to me so I just ignored it like I do with most suspicious calls. Better not to answer at all than risk getting scammed. Makes you wonder where Ofcom is keeping an eye on these scammers using phone lines. I'll be marking this number as risky after seeing what others have said.

They rang me up by name and tried to pitch some life insurance review. I mentioned I don’t do cold calls, and then the person got all rude, telling me I shouldn’t agree to these sorts of calls. Then they just ended the call. I’ve never actually agreed to receive these calls, so not sure why they think they can just ring me.

Avoid this company, it's a total life insurance ripoff! Tried to get a quote, ended up getting scammed hard. Don’t trust them with your info.

Got a call from someone named Sean Parker claiming he was from the Insurance Preview Department. When I asked him to state his name and company again, he seemed a bit on edge. He then started asking about my wife's life insurance with Aviva, but I told him I wasn’t comfortable sharing that due to GDPR rules. He mentioned he’d ring me back later, so I just ended the call.

I've been getting loads of calls from numbers based in Manchester. When I finally picked up, I didn't even say anything, and then an automated voice just said "Bye" before hanging up. Strange.

Got a call from someone claiming they wanted to review my life insurance policy. Since I don’t have any, I just said thanks and ended the call. I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number now.

Really strange, someone rang and asked for me by name. When I said “this is me,” they just ended the call straight away!

I wasn’t quite sure what the caller's company was because they weren’t very clear. When I tried asking them some direct questions, they just wouldn’t listen and kept cutting me off. They said it was about some life insurance policy, but kept messing up my name in different ways. When I called them out on it, they got quite rude and defensive.

I didn't pick up the call earlier, but after reading the comments, I'm definitely going to block that number now.
