2 yearsI keep getting these endless cold calls, it's so annoying. They really should be banned completely.2 yearsI got a call off Max from PH Group, and he kept dodging my questions about what the call was actually for. We've told them again and again to take us off their list, but they just won’t listen. Their business tactics are really dodgy.PH Group3 yearsThis number rang me earlier today and I asked to speak with the director using his first name. They told me he wasn't around, said they’d send him an email, and then just cut me off before I even had the chance to say goodbye. Bit rude if you ask me!3 yearsKeep getting annoying calls from PH GROUP on 01613020411, proper pestering. Honestly, their way of doing things is rubbish - dodgy company through and through.PH GROUP3 yearsThey just kept ringing so I ended up blocking the number.3 yearsThey're with PH Group and just won't stop. I'm trying to get them reported to the TPS but no luck so far.PH Group3 yearsGot a call from someone asking for MD but they wouldn't explain what it was about, just kept saying "Pico". When I asked for more info, they said I should email the company instead. Bit strange if you ask me.3 yearsThis company called me almost daily, always wanting to chat with our Director. I explained she doesn’t entertain unexpected sales calls, but the guy quickly shot back saying "this isn’t a cold call" - well, I’ll be the one deciding that, thanks. Our Director never heard of them and wasn’t interested in talking. So I politely told the caller to take a hike and stopped the conversation there.PH Group3 yearsGot another one of those annoying spam calls today.3 yearsThis number rang me earlier today, asking for the director by his first name. When I told them he wasn’t around, they said they'd send an email and then just hung up straight away without even a goodbye. Quite impolite if you ask me!3 yearsI rang the main office trying to speak to the director and the person who answered was really unpleasant.3 yearsI got a call just now and used Google’s screening feature. When Google asked the caller what the purpose of the call was, they immediately hung up. Weird!Google4 yearsSo we got a call from Please Hold Media Group, and it's actually genuine in our situation since they're one of our vendors. The person on the phone did admit it might come off as a sales pitch, and honestly, if you don’t know them, it’s likely just a sales call. Cheers.Please HoldMedia Group4 yearsThis bloke called Leon was really cheeky, kept demanding to speak to the Directors. When I told him I already had their number from Google and mentioned the nice reviews they got, he didn’t take it well at all. If he rings back and asks who you are, just say you’re Dave and that you had a chat before Christmas - I reckon that’ll annoy him even more! 😂LeonGoogleDave4 yearsI was asked for the Director by their name, but when I tried to find out who was calling and why, they just dodged the questions. Eventually, they got annoyed and just ended the call.4 yearsI got a call from PH group saying they had a chat with M.D. back in November, which is rubbish because I always check every call I get. Today they were pushing Audio Branding, but just last week it was something about Google Ads. Honestly, don't pick up if this number rings you - they’re total fibbers and clearly just bollocking about.PHAudio BrandingGoogle Ads4 yearsGot a call from someone called James, looking for the Director by name. Recognised the name straight away as he’s been pestering us before. When I asked what it was about, he mentioned PD Law, and when I pressed him for more details, he said PD Law were his clients. I told him straight up he was from media sales and that the Director would reach out if he was interested after getting his email.JamesPD LawDirector4 yearsI got a call from a bloke named Tom claiming to be with EPH Group. He wanted to speak to the managing director by name, but the guy he asked for hasn't worked there for over a year! When I asked what it was about, he mentioned someone called James Anderson, who I have no clue about. I gave him a number to ring back on, which was different from the one he was calling from - it was 0161 302 0411.TomEPH GroupJames Anderson4 yearsReally frustrating call. They kept asking for the director just by their first name like they were mates. When I tried to find out what the call was about, they got all dodgy and wouldn't say.4 yearsThe caller was asking for a former Director who left around two years ago. They claimed to be with PH group but seemed uninterested in discussing whatever the call was about with me.PH4 yearsThey wanted me to connect them to a Director because their mobile wasn’t picking up. I said I couldn’t put anyone through, since I was told not to. I advised them to keep calling the mobile they had. Honestly, good luck - the Director they mentioned isn’t actually involved with the company anymore.4 yearsDefinitely one of those sales calls. They mention one of our big clients, probably trying to get past me. They keep asking for the CEO or someone on the board. I told them I couldn’t connect them. They just wouldn’t give up. Checked them out on Google afterwards - turns out they’re a marketing firm or something.4 yearsThis is the second occasion I've had a bloke called Nick from PH Group ring our workplace looking for a director. When I asked him what it was about, he couldn't give me a clear explanation at all. Feels like a scam to me. The number is 0161 877 2253.NickPH Group4 yearsI got this bloke on the phone who was going on about how my phone stuff could supposedly boost my income. He just kept blabbering for so long. When I mentioned it was for our use, he turned quite rude. Not impressed at all.4 yearsThis number kept ringing me, and it was always John claiming to be from "PHMG." Got fed up with the constant calls, so I’ve just blocked it now.JohnPHMG4 yearsI've been receiving constant unwanted calls from a chap named "John" who claims to be with PHMG. He always calls me by my first name, but it’s quite clear that he doesn’t know me at all. Oddly enough, he seems rather evasive when it comes to sharing his full name or any specifics about the company he represents.JohnPHMG4 yearsCaller acted like they were matey with whoever they wanted, asking for phone numbers without giving out any details about themselves. Just kept saying 'John' like that was supposed to be enough to get them through to the boss. Felt like a suspicious sales pitch or maybe even a scam.John4 yearsGot a call from a company called PH Group. They were trying to push some kind of service, but were really rude and kept hassling me. Every time I asked a simple question, they just dodged it and wouldn’t get straight to the point. It seemed like they wanted to sell a music service for people stuck on hold or something odd like that. Definitely feels like a breach of the phone preference service. Would avoid them at all costs.PH4 yearsI found it rather difficult to decipher what this chap with a foreign accent, claimed to be named Taylor, was on about. Without hesitation, I ended the call and promptly blocked his number.Taylor4 yearsHad a call where someone was pushing that annoying hold music service to sell.4 yearsGot a call from Mel at PH Group, she wanted to chat with the Director but only mentioned their first name, said it was about "her client". When I didn’t put her through, she said she’d send an email instead. Can already guess where that’s heading - straight to the spam box!MelPH GroupDirector4 yearsI had no clue what they were saying... then out of nowhere the call got put on hold or something, felt like they passed me around.4 yearsReceived a call from 01618772253 last night at around 1.15am - it rang at our office but got forwarded to our mobiles and ended up waking one of the team up! Absolute nuisance!4 yearsGot a call from someone named Taylor at PH Group talking about "CyberWare." Told him we're not interested and thanked him before ending the call.TaylorPH GroupPolitely4 yearsGot a phone call from a bloke who said his name was "Taylor" and he's from PH Group or something like that. He was asking for our manager and even dropped our boss's first name, mentioning something about "Russen & Turner" and said the boss would understand what it’s about. He wouldn't say anything else and said he’d ring back later. Feels a bit dodgy, could be a scam?TaylorPH Group4 yearsGot a call at work from some guy who said his name was “david robinson.” He wanted to have a word with the manager, but when I told him that wasn’t doable, he just ended the call. Just another annoying break in the day!David Robinson5 yearsHas called me loads of times. No clue who they are. I don’t know anyone from Manchester and I’m not involved with any companies there either.Manchester5 yearsHe told me he was calling from Bridge Dental Surgery.Bridge Dental Surgery8 yearsGot a voicemail about a free demo happening nearby but they never mentioned what it was actually about? Tried calling back but no luck getting through!8 yearsGot a call from some ph group about “a plant” or whatever. Didn’t really sound familiar at all. I said nah, didn’t bother passing it on to the boss.PH Group9 yearsJust got a call from this dodgy sales lot pushing rubbish stuff. As soon as they ring, I just hang up straight away.
