2 yearsNever heard of this number before.2 yearsPicked up the call but all I could hear was dead silence.2 yearsGot a missed call. They never called back or dropped a message.2 yearsGot a call today at 18:38, but hung up as soon as I picked up. Some loser who really needs to find something better to do.2 yearsNo answer, just silence.2 yearsGot about seven calls from this number, which I’m pretty sure is spoofed since I keep blocking it each time they ring. Honestly feels like harassment and could be quite risky.2 yearsGot swamped by scammers, had to deal with like seven different ones just this week. So annoying!2 yearsGot another annoying call today. The phone rang, I picked up and...nothing, silence. From what I’ve read on other reviews, looks like it’s one of those dodgy cold caller scams.2 yearsGot a call from this number earlier when I was just boiling the kettle, left it to go to answerphone but they just dropped the call. No idea who it is or what they want but they’re not getting anything from me. This is my second scam call today, the other one was supposedly from Amazon. Didn’t bother answering that one either.Amazon2 yearsI chose not to pick up, but after doing a bit of digging, it looks like it’s just another one of those endless scam calls from Magrathea. Why can't Ofcom do something about this Magrathea-Telecommunications lot? They really are a pain in the neck!MagratheaOfcomMagrathea - Telecommunications2 yearskeep getting calls from ####, its really annoying now2 years0161 8200297 keeps calling but never leaves a voicemail, so i reckon it’s just some kind of scam...2 yearsJudging by other comments, this might be a scam.2 yearsI answered the call but there was total silence, no one said a word so I couldnt get any info.2 yearsReceived a call on our home phone, and I was greeted by a woman who inquired if my name happened to be somewhat similar to my former married name. I simply said no, and before I knew it, the line went dead. Quite strange, really!2 yearsMentioned my wife's name, and then she claimed to be calling from a security firm. I promptly ended the call.2 yearsSince the 19th of February, I've had a total of four calls from this number. It seems like my provider has flagged it as a nuisance, as the calls don’t actually get through; they just cut off before ringing. However, I can still spot them in my call history.2 yearsThe call stopped right before the voicemail kicked in. Had a look here to see if it was a scam or spam.2 yearsI didn’t pick up, but after looking it up it turns out it’s one of those annoying Magrathea scam calls again. Honestly, why won’t Ofcom just block Magrathea-Telecommunications? They’re really causing a right headache for everyone.MagratheaOfcomMagrathea Telecommunications2 yearsThey didn’t leave a voicemail, but after looking it up I found out the number was from a scammer.2 yearsGot two calls from this number on 4th March 2024, one at 1:25pm and another at 7:29pm. Luckily, my phone has a call guardian feature, so the caller just hung up and didn’t leave any voicemail!2 yearsHad a couple of calls from this number, one around 4 in the afternoon and another at 7 in the evening. Didn't pick up, figured it was probably a scam.2 yearsEverytime I pick up the phone, they just cut off the call straight away. Seems like a scam to me since it keeps happening. I usually just block the number now.2 yearsGot a call claiming they were from a home security company, but it was definitely a scam trying to trick me. Be careful out there, folks!2 yearsI got a call from this number saying money had been withdrawn from my bank and to press 1 to speak to someone about it. They barely mentioned the details, just the amounts supposedly taken. Be careful, it’s definitely some kind of scam!2 yearsI've got to the point now where, if my home phone rings and I'm not anticipating a call, I just let it go to voicemail. I’ll check later to see if anyone bothered to leave a message. This is just the newest addition to the never-ending parade of unknown numbers that pop up on websites like this one, clearly up to no good - either they’re scams or just plain nuisance calls.2 yearsThis number keeps ringing me non stop, it's really annoying both day and night. So over it! 😡😡2 yearsI didn’t get the chance to answer.2 yearsI recently flagged the phone number 01618200297 for being involved in scam calls. I was informed that this number had been blocked due to suspicious behaviour. Apparently, it’s an internet-based call which might be routing me outside the UK. I’ve got call protect active and was keen to register this number with it. Interestingly, when my landline dialled back the last caller, the number shown on the display was different from the actual number which was 07889421357. Anyone faking their real number is surely up to no good.2 yearsWithout a doubt, this was a scammer. When I picked up the phone right away, all I got was silence on the other end. Curious, I tried ringing back and a message said the number got cut off due to some dodgy activity. I’m pretty sure the call came through some online service from abroad, not from inside the UK. Just some con artist looking to take advantage of unsuspecting folks, honestly.2 yearsI got a call from someone trying to sell CCTV for home security. She actually knew my name, which was a bit creepy. When I told her I’m on the TPS list and asked why she was calling, she said the numbers are randomly generated by their system. I told her not to ring me again and asked her to block my number, and she said she would.CCTVTelephone Preference Service2 yearsNow, whenever the landline rings and I’m not waiting for someone, I just let it go to voicemail without picking up. Later on, I check if there’s any message left behind. There’s been so many unknown numbers calling me lately - mostly from these dodgy callers or harassers you find being talked about on pages like this.2 yearsI hung up straight away when it went to the voicemail.2 yearsTotal scam, don't trust it!2 yearsGot a call from some guy saying he was nearby and asked if I wanted a quote for security cameras and alarms. Told him I already had a system, then he just ended the call.2 years016182200297 has called me three times this week. Even after I’ve blocked it, the calls just keep coming through. Honestly, it’s really annoying.2 yearsI’ve had this number ring me a few times but never got a voicemail. Every time I answer, the person just cuts off straight away. Decided to look it up and it seems like it’s one of those scam callers.2 yearsI received an unsolicited call from a chap trying to sell me some security camera installation services - I politely declined, not interested!2 yearsLikely a scam, as the call just ends abruptly whenever I pick up.2 yearsIt appeared to be a call from an overseas contact centre.2 yearsGot a call from a woman named Oliviera, she said she was with Home Security and was canvassing the neighbourhood with their camera deals. I told her I wasn’t interested and cut the call.Oliviera2 yearsI got a call from a woman talking about home security, but she was so quiet I couldn't make out a word. When I asked her to say it again, she just hung up on me. Feels like one of those scams to me. I’m on the TPS list too.Telephone Preference Service2 yearsThis morning I got a call from a woman who sounded English, and she actually used my name. She said she was with a home security company, but when I asked what it was about, she just hung up straight away.2 yearsNormally I just let calls go to voicemail and that blocks most spam, but I picked up this one. The woman said it was about home security, which is different from what I’ve heard others say. I told her my number’s on the TPS list, then I hung up.Telephone Preference Service2 yearsWatch out, these are total con artists. If you get dodgy texts trying to scam you, make sure to report them to 7726. This is the best way for the police to understand how widespread these scams really are. Also, catch the shows about frauds on BBC One and Channel 5 - they air on Monday and Wednesday nights, or you can stream them on iPlayer and My5. Some of the stories they show are genuinely alarming. If you reckon you’re too smart to fall for this, think again. The programmes are definitely worth your time.BBC 1Channel 52 yearsGot a call from this number, they asked for me by name but I have no clue who it was. Probably just another annoying telemarketer.2 yearsThey rang loads but never said a word when I answered, and if it went to voicemail they just hung up without leaving anything.2 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be O2, trying to push some kind of discount deal. I told them I wasn’t interested and then the bloke just said it’s fine because they’ve already made off with what’s like a year’s salary in just one month. Then they just hung up on me. Proper cheeky! 🤬2 yearsGot a call on my landline today from someone talking about home security. I told them not to call as I’m on the TPS list.

No idea who it is, so I just leave it unanswered.Telephone Preference Service2 yearsI got calls from this number like 5 times over five days, even though I’m on the TPS.

After reading some other reviews, it sounds like it could be a scam.2 yearsI didn't get to pick up this call, but as I'm on the TPS list, they really ought not to be ringing me.2 yearsTried ringing a couple of times but no response, and they didn’t leave any msg, so I’ve just gone ahead and blocked the number.2 yearsJust got a call and I ended up hanging up straight away.2 yearsThis number rang me, but I didn’t actually catch it properly as it seemed to drop straight away. Really getting irritated with these annoying calls all the time.2 yearsSo, this person rang me up saying they were from Homeserve. To be honest, it sounded legit since they knew my name, and I had actually signed up for a new appliance warranty recently. They said they were nearby and offered a security quote. I’m always wary of these cold calls, so I told them I already have decent security sorted. I asked them to take me off their call list, and they said that was fine, didn’t want to bother me. I also told them I’m on the TPS and they checked, said there was nothing flagged for me but would still remove me from their records.HomeserveTelephone Preference Service2 yearsGot a call on my home phone from a number I didn’t recognise, but they didn’t leave any voicemail or message.2 yearsGot a voicemail about some weird stuff happening with my credit card.
