We've got a family member over in Manchester who's been having some health issues. Those missed calls from the 0161 area code often left us feeling quite anxious! It was a bit of a concern, especially since no messages were ever left when the answering machine picked up.

I received a call from this number, but I’m not falling for it. I’ll be reporting it to the Telephone Preference Service.

I received a call from this number, and it caused quite a bit of anxiety, especially with family in the vicinity. It was around 19:15, so I couldn’t help but fret that something might have happened to one of my relatives.

I've received quite a few missed calls from the number 01618263251, and each time there's just silence on the other end. Quite mysterious, to say the least!

We've received three calls from the number 01618263251 this month. Is there any chance anyone can put a stop to these persistent nuisances?

It’s rather unfortunate, but the TPS has informed me that these individuals are utterly powerless to put an end to those incessant automated calls. What a right nuisance!

Even though we've made it abundantly clear that we have absolutely no interest in engaging with these people, they persist in ringing us up. We keep lodging complaints with the ICO to try to put a stop to it.

The call cut off just as my answering machine kicked in (I've adjusted it to activate shortly after a couple of rings).

It’s dead easy! Just pop over to eBay and look up “Pro Telephone Call Blocker.” You can grab one for less than £30 with delivery included, and it stops all those annoying calls, even the ones where they hide their number.

Got a call from some sales bot, totally automated and so irritating. Proper nuisance it was!

I got a call saying I had some kind of bonus linked to my private pension, sounded fishy to me so I’m certain it’s a scam!

I've gotten calls from this number like six times now. Every single time it’s some robot telling me to hit 5 for a pension bonus claim or 9 if I want to block the calls. I never press anything, just end the call straight away.

Got one of those recorded calls again today. Didn’t bother even listening, just hung up straight away. Seriously, what’s the use of TPS if this keeps happening?

Absolute scam! They told me to press 5 or 9, then straight away switched me onto a premium rate number. Proper thieves!

01618263251 keeps calling me, just wasting my time again. Honestly, if I bothered reporting every telemarketer that rings, I’d be tied up for hours all week. I probably get two or more calls each day, sometimes even up to five. I’m signed up with the TPS, but it doesn’t seem to stop these annoying calls one bit.

For the last couple of days, this number keeps ringing me with the same automated message. It wants you to hit a button, probably to hook you into a costly call. They say something about me possibly being owed a £1000 pension payout, but that sounds like nonsense to me. Feels like one of those scams designed to trick you into pressing "5" and running up pricey phone fees. I've also registered with the telephone preference service, so it's annoying. The voice sounds like it's a Brit speaking, so I reckon the call is coming from somewhere in the UK.

Got a call from someone saying they were from the pension service, claiming I could get an immediate £1000 since supposedly I’m under 60. When I said I’m actually over 60, they just hung up on me straight away.

Happened to us too, but my wife picked up this time. Once she said she didn’t have a private pension, they immediately asked to speak to me, promising a £1000 reward. I just told my wife to end the call straight away.

Shouldn't the phone providers be held accountable if their networks are used to bother people constantly? Seems like they let this harassment happen without doing much about it.

I don’t do any business calls, so I’m just gonna report these numbers.

Got a call from this number just now. Same old story, a recorded voice talking about some urgent info about my private pension. It’s happened more than once. I just switched to a different phone line.

Got another call just now, same old thing about some money supposedly owed to me. Does anyone actually pay attention to these annoying calls?

This number has rung me a couple of times today, and it's not the first time either. I've gotten calls from it on different days before. Honestly, it's more than just a scam, it's straight up annoying and feels like harassment.

Just got back and checked my answerphone, there was a bit of a message about some payments and to hit 5 or something. So annoying!

This number has called me three times within just a couple of days, and each time they've been really rude and pushy.
