Phone number ☎️ 01618188170 👆 is reported as a persistent source of nuisance calls linked to dubious claims of compensation from alleged accidents. Callers often use different numbers and display aggressive or evasive behaviour when questioned, with some even resorting to threats. Many victims highlight the calls as likely scams, aiming to extract personal information or target vulnerable individuals. Despite being on the Telephone Preference Service (TPS), users continue to receive repeated calls, often with silent hang-ups or recorded messages.

Recipients are strongly advised to block the numbers immediately, avoid sharing any personal details, and remain vigilant to prevent potential deceit or harassment.

6 yearsFor well over two years, these idiots keep ringing me non stop. I’ve told them time after time I’m not interested but they just don’t stop. Just today, I got one call, then another one came through only a few minutes later. EE really needs to step up and block these dodgy numbers that keep pestering people on their network.EE6 yearsThey got some bits of the accident details correct but mixed up a few things. Kept telling me I was entitled to compensation, but I told them I’d only get that via my insurance if it was legit. Felt like a total scam, just trying to fish for my info. When I asked, they weren’t clear at all about how they even had my number.6 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Asian accent going by the name 'Hazel.' She claimed I was entitled to £4000 compensation for a supposed accident from half a year ago. It was obviously a scam, but a seriously dodgy one. When I kept her talking and asked questions, she let slip that she wanted some info so a 'courier' could identify me. Sounds like they're targeting vulnerable folks for fraud or maybe even worse. Best advice: just hang up and block the number straight away, stay safe!Hazel6 yearsEvery time I picked up, they just ended the call. I've gotten quite a few calls from similar numbers lately. Whenever someone did talk, they kept saying there was an accident involving me, which obviously didn’t happen. I’m on the TPS list, so these calls shouldn’t have come through. I’ve blocked all those numbers now.Telephone Preference Service6 yearsGot a ring from them at 2pm on a Saturday when I was out of reach. Seems like their goal is to get you to ring them back so they can make a quick buck. Who allows business calls at such a time anyway?6 yearsWhy do these cold callers get away with being so rude? Someone really needs to step in and put a stop to them!6 yearsThis number 0161 818 8911 called me again today. I just ignored it after a few calls from similar numbers popped up, always no one speaks when I pick up. So annoying, decided to block them now.6 yearsGot calls earlier from numbers ending in similar digits. My phone flagged them as fraud/scam. So I just blocked em all.6 yearsThey kept ringing me every few days, and whenever I picked up, they just cut off right away. I'm defo gonna block their number now.6 yearsThis number rings every day, but as soon as I answer, the call just drops. So annoying! I've gone ahead and blocked it now.6 yearsThey've rung me a couple times recently but didn’t bother to drop a message.6 yearsThink it was one of those dodgy scam calls trying to mess with me.6 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from the ‘insurance department’ asking if I’d got my compensation. I just hung up straight away and blocked the number after that!6 yearsI wasn't really sure so I decided to look it up. The moment I picked up, they just dropped the call.6 yearsSomeone rang my mobile, but I missed it. So I returned the call from my landline and got a recorded message from 'Central Claims Group' saying they had tried to reach me. I’ve never come across that name before, sounds like a cold call, so I just blocked the number.Central Claims Group6 yearssome bloke with a weird accent called me, and i swear i could hear a kid fussing behind him! he kept going on about some accident i was supposed to have been in. i told him i’m on the no call list and he’s not allowed to ring me. after a bit of argy-bargy, he just put the phone down.6 yearsA dodgy insurance firm kept ringing me up, trying to get me to pay them money. Quite clearly a scam, avoided it luckily.6 yearsGot a call from some dodgy lawyers chasing me about a small accident that happened four years back, saying I might be owed compensation. I’d give them a wide berth.6 yearsSome bloke named Omar rang me, and he sounded proper down and worn out. He claimed he was ringing from Slater and Gordon solicitors, then quickly tried to be polite. I told him I’m sick of random cold calls and that I’m on the TPS list, so he really shouldn’t be calling me. I told him to take my info off his list if it was a cold call, and then he started sounding like he was about to nearly cry, insisting he wasn’t some scammer. Gave me a bit of sympathy for the guy, really.OmarSlaterGordonTelephone Preference Service6 yearsI've been getting a bunch of calls from numbers that seem to be all the same kind of annoying spam this past week. Proper pain, so I just went ahead and blocked them all.6 yearsGot a random call from Abdul claiming to be with a 'motor recovery company.' Didn’t say much back and just let it ring out, then they just hung up on me. Pretty weird!Abdul6 yearsCalled by 01618188170 earlier, sounded like one of those call centres. As soon as I answered with a simple hello, the line just went dead. I've ended up blocking the number since it feels like harrassment.6 yearsI picked up and it seemed like some sort of call centre, but then the line just went dead - so I’ve blocked the number now.Submit Your Own Report (0161 818 8170)
