I spoke with a very courteous British woman who told me their system automatically disconnects after 20 seconds. She was quite kind and agreed to delete my information. Apparently, they handle calls for several charities. It all felt genuine to me.

This number has rung me a couple of times today, and I’ve just ignored it both times. After checking out this site, I’m definitely not picking up if it rings again.

This number keeps ringing me even though I’ve blocked it multiple times. I just ignore it cos I know it’s probably some scam. Once I got a text from them saying they were Aqua Card or something like that. Totally dodgy.

Never ever agree to give money to a charity over the phone when they ring out of the blue. It’s impossible to be sure if they’re legit or just con artists trying to nick your bank info. These scammers are really skilled at what they do! If you do fancy supporting a charity, just hang up politely, look up their official website yourself, and sign up there after making sure the site’s real. Don’t forget, if you're paying tax, you might be able to gift aid your donation too. Take care everyone, it’s tricky out there!

I started getting calls from some pancreatic cancer charity shortly after I signed a petition about better treatments. They were quite pushy, trying to sign me up for donations. When I mentioned I was busy at work and couldn’t chat, they rang me right back later that evening. Really persistent and honestly a bit irritating, doesn’t feel like proper fundraising at all.

They ring pretty much daily but I just don’t pick up.

This number has called me several times every day this past week, like 3 or 4 calls daily, really irritating. I kept ignoring it but after seeing what others said here, I’m gonna block it now.

Just as I was drifting off to sleep, around half past midnight, I got this dodgy call from 01618710961. Absolutely not the kind of call I wanted to get at that time!

I've had this number ring me a whopping 18 times over the past fortnight! I’m not one for picking up calls from unknown numbers, so I've simply let them ring out. They’ve tried to leave a message on my voicemail three times and they've come up empty-handed every time. As a result, I decided to block the number, just like I’ve done with countless others. Yet, despite the block, they keep pestering me!

Got a call from some pancreatic cancer charity asking for donations. They said I signed a petition on Facebook, but I did sign something like that and never gave my phone number. Quite odd!

They keep calling me every single day. I've had to start putting my phone on silent just to deal with the constant ringing!

Having received several calls from this number, I took it upon myself to return the call. After waiting on hold for a short spell, I was connected to a courteous young lady. She clarified that the call was on behalf of a UK-based charity dedicated to pancreatic cancer. It seems my information was retrieved from some charity fundraising event I had participated in previously. The purpose of the call was to share further insights about the charity's mission and to shed light on how the funds I had raised were being put to use.

They said they were a pancreatic cancer charity but when I called them out on the scam, they suddenly started coughing like they had Covid or something. Proper dodgy.

For about a week now they’ve been calling me like 6 times each day. I just don’t pick up anymore thinking they’d stop eventually, but nope, still going strong.

Got two calls from this number, missed the first one and the second time it was just dead air. Pretty sure it’s a scammer messing about.

They keep ringing my landline but I just don’t pick up, feels like it's one of those scams. On my mobile, I’ve blocked all unknown numbers so they don’t even reach me, they just go straight to voicemail.

Yet again, got one of those scam calls today. It’s getting seriously annoying how these horrible people keep bothering us every single day.

I've received three calls spread over three different days, but I chose not to pick up and let them ring out. They didn't bother to leave any voicemail either.

This particular number has been persistently ringing my phone, so I've decided to block it entirely.

As soon as I picked up, I ended the call straight away. Like others have mentioned, I keep getting calls from the pancreatic cancer charity. They just don’t get it when I nicely say, "I’m tied up at the moment," and then, "I’m just heading to a hospital appointment” - what I really mean is leave me alone. Enough is enough, I’m done with being polite. This is harassment and I don’t want to answer anymore, so they better be ready for some straight talking!

Got a call from a number I didn’t recognise, looks like it might be one of those HMRC scams based on what I found online?

I keep getting these constant calls from what says it’s a pancreatic cancer charity, sometimes like three times in a single day. Honestly, it’s getting a bit much. I’m seriously thinking about putting in a complaint.

My husband got a call earlier today claiming to be HMRC and threatening an arrest, it sounded like a scam. We didn't pick up when this number rang, but not sure if it's from the same one. We're going to block it just in case. We're in Leicester if that helps anyone.
