01792209241 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01792209241 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance caller, frequently contacting multiple times daily despite recipients being registered with the Telephone Preference Service (TPS). The calls often originate from a company claiming to be Compare Protect or Direct Choice based in Swansea, typically involving sales pitches related to insurance or home improvements. Callers sometimes deny selling products yet continue with aggressive sales tactics. Many users experience immediate hang-ups upon answering or receive misleading claims, such as having found lost passports. Blocking the number reduces calls but does not fully stop them. This number is widely regarded as intrusive, potentially breaching TPS regulations, and has generated numerous complaints regarding its aggressive and questionable marketing practices.

I had a ring from these guys just yesterday. The bloke was quite pleasant actually. He said he’s from Compare Protect out of J Shed, Kings Road, Swansea. He was trying to tell me he could cut my insurance costs. I told him I’m on the TPS, so they really shouldn’t be bothering me. He claimed he wasn’t pushing a sale on me. I wasn’t convinced and told him straight I thought he was fibbing. When I asked if he felt bad about ringing people like that, he just said nah, it’s part of the job he does.

They call me at least twice daily, even though we've never shared our number with them and I'm registered with the TPS. It’s driving me mad! Does anyone know how to get them to finally stop?

I've put my number on the TPS list but still get calls every day around half past noon and again at 5.30pm. My caller ID shows the number but I just don’t pick up. It’s really annoying!

This number has called me a couple of times now. Each time I pick up, they just hang up straight away. So annoying!

They claimed to have found my passport at Heathrow, but I've never actually lost it. Felt really fishy to me.

I told the caller I've signed up with the TPS, but he just wouldn’t stop trying to sell me something. I eventually told him to basically take a hike. I’ve blocked the number now, although my blocker still notes a few attempts from them every day or so.

This number keeps ringing our phone about four times daily. Since we've got caller ID, we just ignore it and don't pick up.

Got a call from Direct Choice Swansea, they said they weren't trying to sell me anything. Bit confusing, if you ask me.

I’m signed up with the TPS, so it’s confusing that I’m still getting calls from this particular number.

Got a call outta the blue from some company claiming they got my number off a survey I supposedly did at Tesco or sumthin. They kept sayin they weren’t tryin to sell me anything, just wanted to know if I might be interested in new windows down the line. Then they asked how many windows I might be lookin to get. This is the second call from a Swansea home improvement firm in just a week. Proper annoying!
