01618840050 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01618840050 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance originating from a supposed home security company, frequently calling landlines and mobiles across various UK regions. Callers often know personal details but fail to leave messages, employing silent or noisy call centre backgrounds. Multiple users describe pressure tactics to offer CCTV or alarm quotes, despite many being on the Telephone Preference Service. Calls are typically viewed as scams aiming to identify existing security measures or to gain access under false pretences. Many have noted repeated calls with no substantive dialogue, hanging up when questioned or ignored. Blocking the number is widely advised to avoid harassment, and caution recommended as genuine appointments or legitimate firms would not conduct unsolicited, aggressive cold calls in this manner.

Got a call from this number on my home phone around 5:53pm, lady with an Asian accent, loud background noise like a call centre. She knew my last name though! Said something about a security company selling CCTV systems. Then the line got really crackly and I couldn’t catch what she said, so I just ended the call. Number’s now blocked.

Got a call this evening around 6.30 from a woman. There was a lot of noise in the background, sounded like a busy call centre. She claimed they were doing rounds in our neighbourhood and wanted to set up a time to look at our home security. I told her our "security" was a giant dog that only gets fed once a week, so he’d happily deal with any trespassers or dodgy salespeople like her! She immediately ended the call. Number’s blocked now.

Got a ring from this number on my phone just now. Had already set unknown calls to go straight to voicemail after a dodgy call from somewhere else yesterday. Just got another dodgy call about 10 minutes ago, so figured I’d keep the voicemail filter on. If these scammers want us to just ignore unknown numbers, then fair play, they’re succeeding. But if they’re trying to actually sell something, then nah, not happening.

They rang me and I couldn’t answer, so I phoned back but got some automated voice from RNG Consultants TLD. After seeing what others said here, I told them I’m sitting in a castle on Brydoon Island, surrounded by water and armed with weapons. I reckon they’d just hang up straight away.
