Had 2 calls yesterday and 1 already today. This person calls my number all the time and I definitely haven’t signed up for any magazine like some older reviews say. It’s just annoying! The people on the other end of these calls are persistent to say the least. Over 12,000 lookups in 5 years? That doesn’t seem very legit or professional to me. Sure, the number might have been sold on a few times, but non stop cold calls? No thanks. I’m just ignoring the caller now. Only picking up if it’s someone I know on both my landline and mobile.

Economist called, was pushy when I hesitated to share my bank info for a 12 week deal costing £12. Got a bit insistent and kept asking why I was having second thoughts.

I've had this number, 01618262051, persistently calling my phone, but the moment I pick up, they just disconnect. It's rather irritating, to say the least! The caller remains unidentified, too. Anyone else experiencing this nonsense?

You might find this hard to believe given all the comments here, but it’s actually The Economist.

I filled out this online survey that said I could get a free issue of The Economist. But when I gave them my address, all they did was try to push me to buy a subscription over and over. They never actually said anything about the free magazine. Honestly, it wasnt worth the hassle to keep talking to them.

They ring me like every day, sometimes multiple times! It’s a bit much, honestly.

I asked for a free issue of Economist magazine, and now they’re ringing me up trying to get me to subscribe. Can’t blame them, I did reach out first after all. But it’s a bit odd they call at exactly the same minute each day. You’d think they’d realise if I’m not free at 2.10pm on a weekday, chances are I won’t be free then tomorrow either!

If you ring them back, you’ll find out it’s The Economist calling and they’ll also give you an option to opt-out.

Thought it was the economist about some free magazine offer, but no one picked up. Bit odd for a mag subscription call, why don’t they just send a link to sign up? Since I know these numbers and robo calls are often scams, I’m not hanging around to talk to anyone or share personal info.

Got a call from Economist Magazine after I'd asked for a free copy. It was an automated dial, so there was a big pause between me answering and a person actually talking. Usually, I hang up before anyone says anything, but the first time I did a quick google search on the number.

Got a call from 01618507785 saying they were from HMRC about some court case. I called back and some bloke answered with "HMRC, how can I help?" then just hung up on me. Called again and it went right to an answering machine asking for my details. Had a call like this a few months back too.
