This number has been ringing me up a couple of times daily for the past three days. Since I recognised it from before, I just let it go straight to voicemail this week. Definitely a telemarketer.

I advised them to clear off, and it actually did the trick!

I received a call from a supposedly foreign woman who claimed to represent a telephone preferential service. She insisted on upgrading my account to a lifetime membership. After confirming my name and address, she inquired if I was under 85 - very basic information indeed. It was only when she mentioned that my credit card expired in 2018 that I realised it was a complete con. Not only did none of my cards expire this year, but I hadn’t even subscribed to this service; it was bundled in with my BT account ages ago. When I pointed out her mistake about my credit card, she became quite huffy and accused me of not understanding her verification, which really only consisted of my name and address easily found in any old phone directory. I told her just about everyone is under 85 anyway. That was when she abruptly hung up. What a complete waste of my time!

Spoke really clear English (felt like a rehearsed script) with a bit of an African accent. Said he was calling from the Telephone Preference team, offering an upgrade so I supposedly wouldn’t get any marketing calls from tomorrow onwards - sounded believable at first, but you know that saying, “If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is!” I tried to get some details on what exactly he was pitching but all I got was “I'm not selling anything, just an upgrade” which made no sense. Eventually I just cut him off with a “Thanks, goodbye” while he was still rambling and hung up.

I got a couple of calls earlier today, some guy checking on my credit card info. He had a foreign accent. The second time he called, he said his name was Dean Martin and that he was from London, saying something about Telephone Preference Management. I reckon he'll ring back soon. Next time, I'm gonna ask him if Frank and Sammy are about!

I've had four calls from this number over the last couple of days. Luckily, my Panasonic cordless lets me send numbers like this straight to voicemail so it doesn't even ring. Usually, these callers don't bother leaving a message anyway. Problem solved!

I had a couple of calls come through; the first one went straight to voicemail, but no one bothered to leave a message. The second call, I picked up, but then I ended up hanging up before they could say anything. Quite peculiar!

I received a call on dad's phone from someone purporting to be from a telemarketing firm, claiming that our cancellation of unwanted calls was about to expire. This chap resorted to threats and insisted on immediate payment. Dad was quick to inform him that we didn’t have any such agreement and hung up. Surprisingly, the foreign gentleman rang back straight away. Dad continued to disconnect the call each time, but the determined caller just kept ringing again. During one of the conversations, dad kept him on the line while he pretended to look for bank information, feeding the bloke some incorrect details. The caller was visibly frustrated and tried to coax dad into complying, but thankfully, Dad held his ground and firmly said no. The last thing that scoundrel said was a rather unsavoury remark about hoping we’d enjoy a barrage of spam calls.

I've received three calls from this number, but each time there's been nobody on the other end. Seems rather fishy to me - likely a scammer!

My phone showed a Rotherham number, but it was marked as coming from abroad. I didn’t answer it and they didn’t leave any voicemail either.

So annoying, they've rung me about 5 times this hour! I finally picked up and they asked if I was Mrs Milton. When I told them no, they went on asking if I owned this landline. I just said, it really doesn’t matter, you’re after Mrs Milton, so please get lost.

I picked up cause my landline doesn’t show caller ID right now. Nobody said a word so I ended the call. Later on, I dialled 1471 to check the number and looked up the feedback here before doing anything else.

Got two calls earlier today, picked up the second one since I was waiting on a call from a firm and thought it might be them. It was some bloke claiming to be from a phone preference service, saying they could help stop scam calls. Bit of a joke if you ask me! I didn’t hold back and told him straight what I thought of it.

I just got called 3 times by 01709518469 within thirty minutes. After reading these comments, I reckon I’ll probably get a couple more calls soon! I usually screen my calls and if there's no voicemail, I always look up the number (unless it’s blocked, obviously). I’d recommend everyone else does that too!

Some tips for folks getting those annoying calls - always have a phone that shows who’s ringing, ideally with an answering machine too. Don’t pick up if the number looks unfamiliar. Real callers usually leave a message if it’s important. If more people stuck to this, we could quickly shut down all those scammy and pushy sales calls. Basically, cut off their lifeline like you’d put out a fire!

Got a call from someone claiming to be from the Telephone Preference Service, asking about how I pay my phone bills and that I was getting calls from abroad. I told her the calls were actually from Birmingham. She even knew my postcode and other details. I just ended the call straight away.

Got another phone call from some jokers, but they didn’t leave anything on my answerphone. The number said it was from Rotherham - 01709 518469 - which might be connected to a sketchy call I had yesterday from 01144 3877 67. Seems like more dodgy scams, so I’ve gone ahead and blocked both now!

Got about 5 calls this past hour. My BT call guardian stopped them getting through, so no worries. Just another number to chuck on the blocked list. Pretty sure more will be blowing up my phone again tomorrow.

somebody called saying they were vanessa from the telephone preference service, asking if i get those annoying nuisance calls. i just laughed and told her to spell 'ironic'. she replied that she’d never come across that word before. then i asked if she knew what it meant, and she said no. she wouldn’t share her manager’s name but insisted she’d been with the company for ages! i told her i could block calls on my own and suggested she google ‘ironic’ when she got home. she said she wouldn’t bother - bit of a disappointment really.

Got three calls in 10 minutes from the same number. The first two times, when I answered, nobody was there and the line went silent. On the third try, someone claiming to be from “telephone preference management” offered me a deal to block all annoying calls from the UK and abroad for £21.99. I sarcastically replied, “Oh, like your own calls then?” and that seemed to annoy her big time. She just launched into a nonsensical rant, and I couldn’t get a word in edgeways - sounded like she had an Indian accent.

About ten minutes ago they rang me. Right away I realised it was that centre calling. When the woman asked for me, I just kept saying “hello, anyone there?” and raised my voice. I kept repeating the hello thing and she got proper annoyed, yelling “Do you want me to cancel your contract then?” I kept saying hello over and over before I finally ended the call.

I got a call from some telephone preference management folks who said they were gonna switch my service over and cancel the one I've got now. I tried explaining that I wasn’t interested, but they just wouldn't have any of it. Eventually, they ended up hanging up after they realised I was having a laugh with them.
