01663761699 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01663761699 👆 is reported as a persistent and intrusive caller often linked to market research on behalf of companies like EON, various water suppliers, and occasionally government bodies such as the DWP or Home Office. Callers frequently mention surveys about utility usage or customer satisfaction but rarely verify their credentials convincingly. Many users describe repeated unanswered calls, silent lines, or hang-ups upon answering, causing distress, particularly to vulnerable or disabled individuals. Calls may disregard Do Not Call lists, causing frustration and prompting complaints about potential scams and data privacy concerns. While some identify it as a legitimate market research firm, numerous warnings highlight deceptive practices, unsolicited contact, and aggressive persistence. Blocking the number is commonly advised to avoid nuisance and potential risks.

01665222021 has called me about five times today claiming to be from phone preference. They wanted to discuss a credit card I supposedly have registered. I told them to leave me alone and said I wouldn’t give any details about my visa card. Bit worrying, especially for someone like me on a pension.

Got a call from some bunch saying they’re from Eon, wanting to pay me £60 to join a chat group at the Hilton next week. Eon don’t usually cold call, right? So how did they get my mobile and surname, even though I’m on the TPS? I only answered 'cause I was waiting for a call like that number, but now I’m proper annoyed. Makes you wonder how good the TPS really is (seems to stop legit calls only), and where the cash is for dealing with scams before or after they happen.

Lovely woman, shame she’s working for a bunch of clowns. She said she was calling on behalf of Eon and that if I turned up at some local place for an interview, I’d get £50. Sounds too good to be true! The problem is, they have your info already - she even knew my name. I told her no thanks and ended the call. I hardly get any calls these days, but when I do, it’s usually some sort of nonsense from dodgy people. You block one, and another shows up. Best thing is to just politely send them packing.

I ignored this call today, just let it ring a couple of times, usually that means it’s a dodgy number. If they say they’re calling about Yorkshire Water, just tell them you’re more interested in Yorkshire Tea! And if you’re getting calls from 'DWP' about things like explosives or chemicals, you should definitely report it to the police. The real DWP is the Department for Work and Pensions, so why would they be asking about that stuff? Scammers can seriously harm vulnerable folks, it’s really not right. This kind of thing should be illegal.

So I got a call from a lass called Keisia, said she’s from some firm in Walsall wanting me to answer some water quality survey. She asked who my water provider was. I told her I don’t have one.

They’ve called me 3 times within the last 90 minutes! He sounded like he was munching on something and maybe in the loo!!! No clue what the call was about. I held the phone up to the telly with Peppa Pig shouting into it till he finally gave up and hung up! The second time he hung up before I could even answer and the third time I just blew a raspberry down the line. I know how to block numbers on my mobile but not certain if you can do that on a landline??

This caller alleged they were carrying out a survey for Yorkshire Water. However, when I probed about their credentials for customer research, they couldn't provide any proper verification and offered some rather nonsensical replies. To top it all off, they even mixed up personal information related to my account.

I had a rather odd experience with a caller from E.ON today, who dialled 02038675287 to ask for the monthly electricity meter reading for my business. I turned down the request as it just didn’t feel right. Strangely enough, this was the first month where I did not receive an email reminder from E.ON to submit the figures. Upon looking into it, their records confirmed that no reminder had been sent - quite baffling! Their email reminder system for our account appeared to be fully operational. Just to clarify, E.ON does not request meter readings over the phone. Curiously, I received this call right around the time I’d typically send in my readings. Just a coincidence? I doubt it very much! Fast forward to today, 19 December 2017, and I got another call from E.ON, this time from 01663761699. They wanted to chat with me, but my wife informed them I was out. The caller said they’d call back, and honestly, I’m rather eager to hear what they have to say!

I think it’s some kind of market research firm called DJS or something like that. This time they said they were working for Yorkshire Water, but from what I’ve seen in the replies, they’ve also called for companies like Eon. Doesn’t seem like a scam or anything dodgy, but if you’re not interested, just hang up on them.

Received a call purporting to be from a water utility, but when I probed for more details, the person just rambled on and offered no clarity. I suspect it’s a scam.

Got a ring earlier today from someone saying they were from the MET OFFICE, seemed to know my name and wanted to ask some questions. I said I was busy going out, then ended the call and blocked the number. Got a couple more calls like that tonight. Just switched my mobile provider, reckon my number got passed around one of Virgin’s rubbish call centres.

Got a call at 10:43 am on 01/12/2017 from someone saying they were with DAS Legal, at least that’s what my wife said when she answered. When she mentioned the person wasn’t in, they said they’d ring again. Number can’t be reached now so ive gone ahead and blocked it.

I told the person ringing that I’m on the TPS list, but they said that only counts for sales calls, not for ‘market research’. They mentioned something about water services, but I didn’t catch the company name.

Totally a scam, avoid this number at all costs. I’d recommend blocking it straight away. The callers seem to be from India, using names like George, Jeffrey, John and the like.

They keep ringing me up but never respond when I say hello. The rare occasion when someone did pick up, all they did was repeat "hello" back at me without giving any clue as to why they were calling. It's quite baffling!

Got a call from this number and they were asking for Mr Davis. Told them he doesn’t live here anymore and put them on block. But no joke, after 10 missed calls they just kept bloody calling. Not interested at all, bugger off.

They said they were from DJS Research, some kind of market research firm, sounded legit and doing a survey for the Water Council. Seemed quite polite. I just said no thanks though, didn’t want to end up getting loads of spam mail or calls after joining in on the survey.

Claimed to be ringing from EON, but the blokes voice sounded as if he was trapped in a tin can! He didn’t provide any particulars apart from saying he'd dialled the wrong number. Very peculiar indeed!

I asked them if they wanted my credit card details and PIN, and they actually said yes! Then he asked if he could have them straight away because his family in INDIA was supposedly waiting for my money for a flight to HEATHROW today. I don't think so, sounds like a total scam to me. There aren't even any flights from INDIA today, haha, fooled me not!

They are some sort of market research firm - if you tell them, they’ll take your number off their list. I applied for a mystery shopper role with Aldi and then got a few calls, three of which came from this number. It all stopped once I asked them to take me off their database.

I got a call from a really quiet bloke who wanted to know if I’d been told about weather alerts near me. He then asked if I could spare a few minutes for a quick survey, like 3 or 4 mins. He also checked if I was based in York, Hull, or Lincoln, and asked which age bracket I belonged to. Suddenly he said his computer wasn’t working or something and just ended the call.

Today I got a call claiming to be from the DWP but saying it was for the Home Office's counter terrorism team. They were asking if we stocked any explosives in our store. I went through the list they gave me. Seemed fairly legit, but they didn’t ask about the business proper, so I didn’t have to reveal much.

Got a call on my landline from a number I didn’t know, so I just let it ring out. The answerphone picked up but no message was left, so I’m not fussed. Seems like it might be one of those legit marketing companies, but since I’m signed up with the TPS and never accept marketing calls, they can forget it. No clue how they even got my info in the first place!
