I'm thoroughly fed up with these annoying prank calls. When will they ever stop?

Got a call from someone claiming to be TalkTalk (we’re actually with BT). They wanted to have a quick chat with my desk sergeant or something, but then they just hung up. As usual, I reported it to the ICO - I always do with these scam calls. You can check them out here: https://ico.org.uk/

this bloke with an indian accent who called himself adam said he was ringing from ‘respective claims advisory’ about my ppi claim. i told him i hadn’t actually made any ppi claim and asked which company exactly he was with. all he kept doing was repeating ‘respective claims advisory’ about my ppi claim. got really annoyed cause he wouldn’t say a proper company name and kept ignoring that i never made a claim. told him i’d block the number and ended the call. definitely fishy, especially since other calls from the same number claim to be about totally different stuff.

Got a call from someone with an asian accent pretending to be from TalkTalk, told them straight away to buzz off cos I knew it was a scam. Since then, they haven't bothered me from that number anymore. Do these lot ever give up?

Got a call from someone claiming to be TalkTalk saying my internet had a virus. Definitely not from TalkTalk though, just some guy from India trying to scam me for my bank info. I just told him the Serious Fraud Office was keeping an eye on my phone and he quickly hung up.

My phone rang from this number but since it was unfamiliar, I let it go to voicemail. Nothing was left on the message, which was a relief. After reading the reviews here (cheers for those), I've decided to block it completely. Talktalk provides a free way to block unwanted callers - you just dial 14258 and then enter ## when asked, which blocks the last caller's number permanently. The annoying thing is, these pests simply switch to a different number, so the annoying calls just keep coming, never stopping.

I noticed this number pop up on my screen, and since it was unfamiliar, I decided to let my voicemail take care of it. Surprisingly, there was no message left. After glancing through the comments above (a big thanks to everyone for their input), I’ve now blocked this number from reaching me. TalkTalk provides a complimentary call-barring service, so I simply ring 14258, and when instructed, I enter **, which effectively bans the last caller's number for good. The catch is, these persistent nuisances seem to just switch to another number, so this cycle of annoyance just continues without respite.

I've spent far too much time dealing with calls while my poorly spouse needs my attention. If it's not too much trouble, could you alert the authorities with this number? I would greatly appreciate it.

Rang me twice today but said absolutely nothing. What an utter waste of time-just a right nuisance!

Yet another caller purporting to be from TalkTalk - they seem to ring me nearly every day. Today, however, I received a rather peculiar call from a woman. It struck me as a bit strange, given the attitude these folks usually have towards women. Have we, perhaps, reached some sort of multicultural milestone? Are the women starting to follow in the footsteps of their male counterparts in terms of dubious behaviour? I did my best to keep her engaged on the line, hoping to fritter away her time with my questions, but alas, she ended the call before I could fully execute my plan.
