01792209288 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01792209288 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance caller primarily associated with cold selling of double glazing, home improvements, and kitchen warranties. Despite numerous requests to be removed from call lists and being registered with the Telephone Preference Service (TPS), many users experience repeated daily calls, silent calls, or abrupt hang-ups. Some have reported rude or aggressive behaviour from callers, often linked to a call centre operating under names such as Direct Choice and Direct Traces in the Swansea area. Complaints include deceptive sales tactics, failure to honour do-not-contact requests, and potential targeting of vulnerable individuals. Several users recommend call-blocking devices or services to deter these calls, and caution is advised when responding, as returning calls often leads nowhere or results in full voicemail inboxes.

I keep getting calls every day from 01792 209288. Ive asked them loads of times to take my number off their list but nothing changes. Now I just ignore any calls from that number.

They keep ringing me nonstop, ive told them loads of times to remove me from their list. A while back I got a quote from them but it was a load of rubbish. Totally overpriced and the salesman wouldnt stop pestering me. I had to grab my jacket and stand at the door just to get them to leave me alone. Just dont bother with them.

If you’re fed up of getting calls from desperate folks who have been duped into thinking there’s easy work waiting for them, then the BT Call Guardian is the way to go. It really puts an end to these irritating nuisance calls.

Had a call from someone with a British accent, didn't catch all of it but sounded like it was about double glazing or something. Makes me wonder if it's one of those Neville guys again.

Someone rang up asking for a person who doesn’t live here, so I told ‘em they’ve got the wrong number. Then they asked if I owned the place, which I denied, and when they wondered if I was renting, I said nah, just crashing here. The woman started chuckling and then just said alrighty, bye. That was a bit of a laugh!

No idea who keeps ringing me, but I’d really recommend getting a BT phone with Call Guardian. The caller has to say who they are or they get disconnected. I’ve had mine for about 10 months now and haven’t had one annoying call at all, really works well. And just to be clear, I’m not paid by BT or anything.

Got a call from this number on 4th Feb 2016 around 10:32. I asked to speak to a manager and got put through. I told the woman, who had a thick Yorkshire accent, that I’m on the TPS list and shouldn’t be receiving these calls. I asked her to remove my number and warned I’d report them if it happened again. She said sorry and promised she’d do it. Time will tell if they actually follow through...

I had the same thing happen to me, picked up the phone, loads of background noise but no one actually speaking, so I just ended the call. Loads of folks say they’ve reported it but it keeps happening anyway.

They called me then just cut off. I dialled 1471 to get their number and tried calling back. There was some music then I could hear noises like in an office before they hung up. I have one of those call anytime phone plans so I left the line open till it started doing that terrible crackling noise. Hoping they couldn't do anything with the line while I was still on it but no clue if that’s true or not.

My phone rings quite often from someone asking for Mr Llwydcoed, sometimes a couple of times a day. I tell them I'm not who they're looking for and ask them to remove me from their calling list, which they say they will do, yet it’s been going on for nearly a year now. I've also signed up with the phone preference service. Does anyone know how to stop these calls? They’re really annoying.

It was a call centre. I couldn’t make out what the person was saying cos they spoke way too fast and there was loads of background noise from other people talking. When I asked, they denied being a cold caller. We’re registered with TPS, so we shouldn’t be getting these calls at all.

This number keeps calling me, and every time I tell them I’m not interested. The last one was really bad - I was still talking and the bloke just hung up on me. I wasn’t even being rude, but he was definitely quite disrespectful and very impolite.

Good ask - this bloke kept botherin my mate, who’s had a stroke and wasn’t able to respond right. Looks like it’s some double glazing firm from Swansea. If I manage to link the number to a specific company, they’ll be gettin a visit from South Wales Police - if I don’t show up first!

Been getting calls from them like mad, about 4 times in three hours. Every time I just let it ring out to voicemail cos honestly, I’m sick of it. Told them loads of times to remove me from their list but no luck, they keep ringing. At the start of the year, they actually cancelled our guttering order without even giving us a heads up. And then we had some pushy salesman hanging around for hours, talking nonsense. Do they seriously think I’ll let that happen a second time? Nah, no chance!

Called this number, turns out it’s a call centre for Direct Choice and their double glazing services. I mentioned that I’d recently replaced my windows and they just hung up on me. Bit cheeky, but I guess it saves them the hassle!

Unsolicited call about double glazing, it seems. They seem to be using the names Homestyle or Direct Choice interchangeably.

I always steer clear of cold calls, especially from people selling double glazing or home improvements. I don't trust them at all and straight up block their numbers!
