Got a ring from this number earlier today, picked up and they just dropped the call straight away. Lovely behaviour! Well, at least I’ve figured out who it is so I can just ignore it from now on.

I'm on the TPS list but this number keeps ringing me every day. Whenever I pick up, they just cut the call. Does anyone know a way to block them for good?

They keep ringing me up about some extra coverage for the same price. But when I asked them to send me the info so I could check if it’s worth it, they just hung up. Very dodgy!

Got a missed call from this number earlier, no clue who it was. Luckily 1471 helped me find out. Fingers crossed they run out of cash and stop bothering everyone.

I got calls from 0161 818 8603 a couple of times across two days. Missed the initial ring but picked up on the next day, feeling a bit wary. As soon as I said hello, they just dropped the call. This Manchester number seems familiar for these kinds of calls, so I just blocked it immediately.

I got a call from this number earlier. I answered but stayed quiet, and they didn’t say anything either before hanging up.

I got a call from this number twice in a row. Didn't pick up the first time, but when it rang again the next day, my phone warned me it could be a scam. So I've just decided to block it now.

Lately, I've been receiving these calls quite often. I usually just ignore them. Honestly, I hardly pick up my landline at all anymore because it's become so annoying.

They acted like they weren't hearing me at all. I've blocked several numbers starting with 0161, yet they keep ringing me from new ones. It's really annoying.

I just blocked the number. How do these Indian call centres manage to use a UK landline number while making calls from India? Seems like they're somehow forwarding the calls to appear local.

Got a call from some Indian call centre claiming I’d been in a car accident and could get cash for it. Seemed really dodgy, so I just hung up straight away. Definitely a scam trying to con money out of people. Stay clear!

I chose not to pick up, and after looking them up I’m really pleased I didn’t. Seems like they’re going around all weekend, no idea who or what they’re pretending to be! Since I’m signed up to the TPS, I’m blocking the number and reporting it there - shouldn’t be getting these calls anyway. If you’re getting similar, I’d recommend doing exactly the same.

Cheers for the heads up! I wasn't sure what this awful call was, but now it's sorted. Blocked for good!

They rang me but I hung up as soon as it started ringing. Later I looked it up here and I’m relieved I didn’t pick up.

Got a missed call earlier but no way I'm ringing back. Definitely one of those ambulance chasing accident claim companies.

Got a dodgy call from some bloke trying to offer car accident help. I thought I’d mess about with him for a bit. After a while, he lost it and started swearing, calling me a time-waster and said people like me should pay for it. I shot back saying, “That’s funny, you’re the one who dialled me - where did you even find my number?” He went off again, so I just hung up. Honestly, we should make these companies waste more time and money than they earn from these calls. They’re all a bunch of muppets.
