01865986228 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01865986228 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance caller linked to timeshare compensation claims, often identifying as "Victoria Marketing." Callers frequently hang up or remain silent once answered, rarely leaving messages. Many recipients describe it as a cold call scam or misleading sales pitch, sometimes mentioning a "no win, no fee" legal offer related to Spanish timeshares with a suspicious fee split. The calls are invasive, often made despite registration with the UK’s Telephone Preference Service, and some users suspect the number may be spoofed or operated unlawfully. Advisable to avoid engagement, do not share personal details, and report to Ofcom or block the number where possible to mitigate disturbance.

Got a call from Jonathan about a court case against my timeshare in Spain, said it was no win no fee with a 60/40 split. He couldn't locate my timeshare cause the companies are huge. He also talked about some firm in Spain that had gone to court but couldn’t find that either.

I had pretty much the same thing happen to me like others mentioned - the phone just went dead right when I picked up after only a couple rings. No clue who was on the other end. Really weird and kind of annoying.

This number keeps ringing but doesn't bother to leave a voice message. It simply hangs up as soon as my answerphone kicks in. I can't even block it because my call blocker, 1572 from BBT, claims it doesn't recognise the number! Quite pathetic, really. I’ve got a hunch it’s from Oxford.

The phone chimed a few times before falling silent. I attempted to dial 1471 to trace the number, but alas, no luck there. So, I turned to this website for answers and, phew, turns out it’s just another pesky nuisance call!

Received a call from this number earlier today, the 12th of April. I chose to ignore it based on previous encounters. I'll just bide my time until they throw in the towel; then I’ll ring 1471 to determine if it's anyone worth my while. Honestly, I have no desire whatsoever to engage with these dubious characters.

I'm really fed up with these incessant nuisance calls that keep pestering me, despite having flatly told them I’m not interested! It’s beyond frustrating - I wish these bothersome individuals would find themselves a decent job and leave the rest of us in peace. I’ve resorted to ignoring their calls, but the number seems to pop up nearly every day. What a nuisance!

Timeshare legal helpline - just another one of those bothersome cold callers that seem to be everywhere. It’s clear that some dodgy character in the timeshare industry has passed our number along, as we've been inundated with calls from all sorts of firms over the past year. We’ve repeatedly requested to be removed from their lists, but they just keep coming back. It’s downright frustrating!

A firm named Victoria Marketing has rung me about a dozen times. Most of the calls were silent and they never left a voicemail. I finally got through to someone today who said it was about some timeshare claims. I told her I'd already reported their number to Ofcom and asked them to stop calling me.

Someone rang wanting to chat with my partner but when I asked who it was, they just wouldn’t say. Then they started asking who I was, and the moment I didn’t answer, they just ended the call. Definitely fishy behaviour!

I've been getting calls from this number several times now. I haven't picked up, and they've never left a voicemail. Like someone else mentioned, it seems to be related to timeshare nonsense, and funnily enough, I've had a similar experience with 02076242928 for the same issue. It's rather annoying, to say the least!

BT, as the primary telecommunications provider, ought to put in place a system to sever connections after receiving a certain number of grievances.

I've received three calls from this number today, and each time I pick up, there's complete silence. After a moment, I hear a voice simply say, "Goodbye." It's incredibly frustrating, especially when I'm on the lookout for an important call and have to answer every ring.

Got a call one evening from someone claiming to be 'Victoria Marketing'. They were talking about taking legal steps over timeshare claims in Spain. I said I don't own any timeshare and told them I thought it was a nuisance call. Then I mentioned I’m on the TPS list and that I'd report them to OFCOM. After that, they just hung up, saying they'd take my number off their list.

The woman who rang said her name was Victoria and mentioned she was doing some marketing. She said she’d been told to get in touch with timeshare owners. She didn’t say who wanted her to call or why exactly. When I told her I don’t have a timeshare, she said sorry and promised to take me off their call list. Sounds like they might be pushing timeshare compensation claims.

I've got all my mates and family saved on my phone so I know who's ringing. I don’t pick up any calls from numbers I don’t recognise, and my voicemail clearly says if your number isn’t saved, I won’t be answering. They can leave a message with their name and number and someone might get back to them, but honestly, hardly anyone ever leaves a message. I keep an eye on the numbers that call, and if it’s the same one bothering me over and over, I just block it.

Picked up a call from this number today. A woman was going on about claiming money because of some 'in perpetuity' thing in a timeshare deal, but you gotta go to Spain for it. Then she said if they get any cash, it's a 60/40 split. Smells dodgy to me, probably a scam.

Got a ring from this number asking for Mrs A (my mum, who’s quite old). The number is meant to be unlisted. When I said I was her daughter and asked who was on the line, the lady quickly said “oh it’s fine, we’ve got an email” and then just cut me off. I tried calling back but got an automated message saying “all lines busy” and no actual ringing. Seems really dodgy to me.

I received a call from a number claiming to represent 'Victoria Marketing', supposedly regarding some legal proceedings about timeshare refunds in Spain. It strikes me as if they might merely be acting as intermediaries, though it's quite possible there's something more dubious at play. Just thought I'd share this in case it proves useful!
