They just keep ringing even tho I've told them I'm on the TPS. Had to block the number now. If they come back from another one, I'm thinking of trying to waste as much of their time as I can before ending the call suddenly.

Somebody quiet answered my call and said they're with "Insurance Helpline". When I asked "which insurance firm?", they just cut me off. Feels a bit fishy to me.

This number keeps ringing me day in, day out - it's infuriating! They need to put a stop to it. No one ever says a word, they just hang up.

I keep receiving calls from this number at all hours, which leads me to believe it might be some sort of marketing gimmick or perhaps a scam. Quite often, it only rings two or three times before it stops, leaving me unable to answer in time.

They keep ringing up about life insurance even tho I told them we're not interested. We’re also on the TPS list, so it’s pretty annoying.

Got a call from a woman claiming to be from "the Insurance help Line" asking about life insurance I might have, and she assured me she wasn't trying to sell anything! I asked why they were calling me in the first place, then told her we’re on the TPS so they really shouldn't be ringing. This was actually the second time they’d called. I told her to take my number off their list or I’d report them. Honestly, I don’t get why TPS doesn’t take these calls seriously - feels like the whole thing's a bit of a farce.

I put the phone down right after picking up. They probably figured I wouldn’t be interested. By the way, I’m on the TPS list too. Surely it's overdue for TPS to have some proper legal power?
9 years
Not sure who it was, the phone stopped before I could pick up and no voicemail either. Thought it might be a spam call even though I’m on the TPS.

I keep getting calls from this number, as well as a similar one, and it's becoming quite bothersome. I'm hoping to find out how I can block these calls effectively. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

These cold calls are so misleading. Totally with you on needing to put a stop to them.

They kept calling my 80 year old mum today (like they have for a few days now) trying to push life insurance on her, even tho she’s told them she’s not interested (and honestly, at her age, I can’t imagine how expensive that would be!). The lady on the phone was abit rude and actually hung up on me when I asked where they got my mum’s number from. If you can, block them, or better yet, just don’t pick up.

I picked up and they just ended the call right away. This has happened a few times now, really frustrating.

Got a call from a lady claiming she was with the Insurance Help Line, telling me not to be concerned cause she wasn’t trying to sell me anything. I asked which company she was representing and she said “Insurance Help Line.” Then when I asked for more info about them, she just hung up on me. Proper annoying!
