Phone number ☎️ 01768890860 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance caller frequently claiming to be from the Telephone Preference Service (TPS) offering a paid call-blocking service. Callers often use silent pauses, hang up abruptly, or issue threats when challenged. Many report an aggressive tone, requests for personal and bank card details, and insistence on a mandatory fee, which is false. Calls typically occur multiple times daily, sometimes very early, causing significant distress, especially for vulnerable individuals. The number is widely suspected to be spoofed, making blocking difficult. Users consistently warn others to avoid sharing personal information and recommend reporting to official fraud authorities. This number is strongly associated with scam activity and should be treated with caution.

8 yearsThe call was silent the whole time and all I got was a quick goodbye before they hung up. I've no idea who it was.8 yearsThis number kept ringing me today - claimed to be from TPS offering to block all those annoying calls. It buzzed me three times, with the last two calls coming less than half an hour apart. I told them straight away I'd already talked to them and wasn’t bothered, plus that they themselves were just another spam caller I thought TPS was meant to stop! By the third call, I wasn’t messing about, had to tell them off properly.TPS8 yearsAfter a lengthy silence, a bloke with an Asian accent picked up and told me I'd had my number ages and was on the TPS, yet I still got scam calls, but he promised to sort it out today. I told him I'd only be interested if it was free, but he said there’d be no weekly or monthly charges, just a one-time payment of £21.99. Not keen on that, I said thanks but no thanks and hung up.TPS8 yearsWatch out, these callers are definite s#am artists!8 yearsJust a heads up, they tried to convince me it's a must-have service. Honestly, don’t fall for it. They're only after your card info.8 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from the TPS, saying I had to pay for some sort of compulsory anti-spam protection. Seemed dodgy to me, sounded like a scam trying to get me to fork out cash. Watch out for these sorts of calls!TPS8 yearsThey are masquerading as the Telephone Preference Service while peddling a paid spam blocking solution. They've been incessantly calling me for the past day. I've lodged complaints with TPS, Action Fraud, and the police due to their aggressive tactics. It's quite troubling.Preference ServiceTPSAction Fraud8 yearsI’ve got Sky Talk Shield and I don’t get how they managed to get through when there was no name showing. Some bloke with an Asian accent was chatting about unwanted calls, saying I was one of them. Feels like there’s just no getting away from these annoying calls nowadays!8 yearsSame old story, this crazt call started bright and early at 7.30 this morning. Told them I'd be reporting to the police and they just hung up. Cant block it cause the number is spoofed. Proper frustrated! My longer rant from the day before is down below.8 yearsToday’s the third time they’ve called, but I only picked up once and they just went quiet and hung up. Didn’t even bother with the other calls.8 yearsThis number has called me a few times today. Every time I picked up, the call just dropped straight away. So frustrating!8 yearsGot a call from 01768890860 around half past seven but when I picked up, there was silence on the line. I don’t know anyone from Penrith, so it felt a bit suspicious to me.Penrith8 yearsHad like three calls from this number today. First one rang at 7.30 in the morning. The person said they were from TPS. I told them I’m already on the list, so they need to stop these calls. The last time they called was about 10.15, and this Asian woman said they’d take me off the TPS list, but I’m not signed up with them in the first place. I really had to hold back from snapping at her, but it was bloody difficult.Telephone Preference Service8 yearsUpon picking up, all I got was a swift goodbye and that was that.8 yearsThey ring me about 3 times every day, sometimes starting as early as 7 in the morning. Once I did answer and spoke to an Asian lady who asked whether I had been getting nuisance calls. I told her I was actually on the phone to one of those and then I just hung up. Unfortunately, it didn’t make them stop calling.8 yearsThis number has rang me six times now. Each time I pick up, all I get is a rather abrupt 'Goodbye' before the call ends.8 yearsGot a number that keeps ringing but when I pick up, complete silence on the other end. Totally weird!8 yearsGot a call from a woman claiming to be with the "telephone preference service." She asked for my debit card info. I ended the call, but she phoned again and then just cut off when I refused to share any personal details.8 yearsGot a call from 01768890860 around 12:50 today. The bloke on the other end spoke with a thick Indian accent. What freaked me out was he actually knew my name, where I live, and even how long I've been registered with the TPS (Telephone Preference Service). Then he tried to sell me a £20.99 package to stop scam calls - as if! Gave him a piece of my mind and hung up straight away.Telephone Preference Service8 yearsEarlier today, my elderly dad got a call and they were trying to get his bank and credit card info. They already had his name and address, which was a bit worrying. Thankfully, he didn’t share anything. The person on the phone had a really thick accent and I couldn’t tell where they were from. They kept mentioning something about 'marketing' or something similar.8 yearsThey keep ringing me non stop, is there any way to block their number?8 yearsMy work phone just rang and when I picked up there was nothing but silence. After a bit, this robotic voice came on just to say ‘goodbye’ and then it disconnected. Very strange!8 yearsI reckon these fraudsters rely on an automatic dialling system that just randomly picks numbers. When there aren’t any scammers free to pick up, a call centre connected to the scam answers instead. It seems this number is faked, so it doesn’t really show where the call is coming from at all.8 yearsAt about 9.15 this morning, I picked up the phone and the caller just dropped the call right away.8 yearsWatch out, total scam alert! These people are just trying to trick you. Don’t fall for it, they’re definitely scammers.8 yearsThis number kept ringing me about six times yesterday. Every time I answered, there was silence for a few seconds and then someone quickly said goodbye without leaving any message. I didn’t pick up once they called again at 7 this morning, and now I’ve blocked the number. Definitely annoying!8 yearsThis number kept ringing our phone on Saturday, woke us up three times! And then just now, at half past seven in the morning, it rang again. I've blocked it now.8 yearsGot a call from this number around 9:20 this morning, no one said a word for a long time, then finally a woman muttered something, so I just hung up. Definitely best to avoid this one!8 yearseven after i told them to stop they just keep ringing me up nonstop! really annoying!8 yearsThis number has called me a few times today but never bothered to leave a voicemail, so I’m just going to block it now.8 yearswas probin for debit card details, seemed pretty dodgy to me8 yearsGot a call earlier today but there was complete silence when I answered.8 yearsToday around 3.30 this afternoon, our landline rang. After a brief pause, a woman with an Asian accent spoke, but honestly, it was so hard to catch what she said because the line was awful and her accent really thick (she mentioned Penrith? That seems off). She was going on about telephone preferences or something similar. I made an effort to hang up nicely, but she got quite rude, so I just cut the call. Another pointless time-waster to add to the list.8 yearsReceived calls from this number two times today. I don’t have anyone in Penrith, so with zero messages left on my phone, I’m just ignoring them now. They’re defo getting blocked. If it’s legit, why not leave a voicemail? Maybe they need to fix their call ID tricks or something.Penrith8 yearsI got a call earlier today, but when I answered, nobody was on the line and then it just hung up saying, "good bye"!Submit Your Own Report (01768 890860)
