I recently received a call from this number, but as soon as I answered, they hung up. It's quite frustrating, especially since we’re already on the Telephone Preference Service and have taken steps to avoid these nuisance calls. It feels like these persistent callers are just ignoring the rules. Honestly, I think it’s high time that someone like the watchdog took action against them, so we can finally rid ourselves of these annoying interruptions!

I've recently had a similar experience-received a couple of calls from them after which they abruptly hung up. Honestly, they’re a right nuisance!

This number keeps giving me a bell, only to ring a couple of times before going silent. I’m registered with the Telephone Preference Service, so why on earth are these calls still coming through?

This number has been ringing us about ten times a day, and it's really beginning to get on my nerves. When I answer the phone, there's nobody on the other end.

We've been getting all these phone calls from numbers we don't recognise, and it's honestly a bit unnerving, especially when I'm home by myself. It's quite unsettling to think of who might be on the other end.

Received a call around six o'clock this evening, but we opted not to answer since I suspected it might be something along these lines. We’re also on the TPS list, so I find it all a bit pointless! What a nuisance!

Yet another silent call from this number! Has anyone got any tips on how to stop these pesky calls? I’m already registered with the Telephone Preference Service, but it doesn’t seem to make any difference.

I've just received a call from this number. Apparently, it’s related to a life insurance survey, though it feels more like they're trying to push a sales pitch.

Called but there was no sound - just a silent ring.

This number has turned into quite the annoyance, calling us nightly at about seven or eight o'clock. Whenever we pick up, a woman starts inquiring about our Sky service and other gear we might have. It seems they're trying to sell us some sort of insurance for our devices, but they’re not affiliated with Sky in any way, nor are they endorsed by them.

I keep getting calls from these oddballs, but there's never anyone on the other end! They don’t bother to hang up, nor do they say a word; all I can hear is the sound of breathing! It’s rather unsettling! Honestly, I wouldn’t engage with them if I were you - it feels pretty suspicious!

I've received calls from this number twice over the last fortnight. The latest one came through at 15:55 today. After the second ring, I checked it through 1471, and astonishingly, a pre-recorded message came on, claiming it was a PP Credit operation trying to reclaim loans or something similar. I hung up instantly, as I'm already registered with the Telephone Preference Service. Just another nuisance!

It's rather frustrating when these callers ring, and as soon as we've picked up the phone just after the fourth chime, they hang up straight away. Quite irritating, isn't it? UGH!

Received a quick call, then it vanished just as fast. When I returned the call, an automated voice greeted me, urging me to reclaim up to £7,500 for loans and credit cards that might be covered by PPI. Apparently, all I needed to do was press 2. Obviously, we decided against that. I’m also signed up with the Telephone Preference Service, so why on earth am I still getting these types of calls? It’s clear this number is being used by a telemarketing company that leases it out to different clients as needed.

We had the exact same experience at 4.35 this afternoon. So relieved we decided to look it up here beforehand!

Received a call from these folks earlier today around 8 PM. They hung up as soon as we answered. We're planning to lodge a complaint with Ofcom about this. I really encourage everyone to do the same - that way, they might just get hit with a fine. Thanks!

I received a call from this number at a quarter past eight this evening. Like many others, I’m registered with the Telephone Preference Service. The call didn't last long enough for us to pick up, but honestly, they’re lucky! If they'd lingered a bit longer, they would’ve been treated to a polite reminder that if they dare to ring again, I won't hesitate to report them to the TPS, and then they can deal with the fallout!

I keep getting these calls several times a week, often at the most peculiar hours. Whenever we answer, they just hang up, which is incredibly frustrating. I must admit, it's a bit of a comfort to discover it's a business and not some random weirdo. I reckon I’ll have to reach out to the Telephone Preference Service once more.

Could anyone shed light on who this might be?

Nope. They called and then just cut the line - such a nuisance, honestly!

I've been receiving these incessant calls for several days now, almost a week, and they're driving me quite mad! It’s always the same pre-recorded message about reclaiming PPI. They prompt you to hit option 2, but when I tried to engage, my phone went silent, only to be followed by an annoying clicking sound. If you attempt to call the number back, you’re met with that same automated message - so frustrating! I'd love to have this number blocked, but the thought of dealing with BT makes my skin crawl!

I've received numerous calls from this number, yet there’s never anyone on the other end. I reckon BT ought to take action regarding these calls. I'm signed up with the Telephone Preference Service, but it seems to have little effect.

Received a quick call, but no message was left. Just wondering, who on earth are these folks? They rang up twice, once at 20 and then again at 40. Quite baffling!
