I've received loads of missed calls from this number. Finally, I decided to answer and it was a young lady, who spoke with an Asian or Indian accent. She claimed to represent some sort of government-approved service aimed at clearing debts, and oddly enough, said it wouldn’t cost anything. Strangely, she seemed to know my first name, surname, and even the number of my house, information I seldom share. She was rather pushy, insisting I reveal how much debt I might have. However, after I politely turned her down for the second time, she abruptly disconnected the call!

We received a phone call from this number, and an Indian gentleman identifying himself as Mr. Gill said he was contacting us on behalf of Money Manager. Naturally, I was curious, so I asked him why they were calling and how they managed to get our number. I needled this information out of them since our number is registered on the telephone preference service.

Once more, ten weeks on, these callers are back at it. This time, there’s dead silence on the line, and after a few minutes, they simply hang up - it’s not a quick disconnect but rather the unmistakable sound of the receiver being placed down. Curious, we decided to ring the number ourselves, and to our astonishment, someone answered. We politely asked to be removed from their calling list and gave them our number. The person on the other end confirmed our identity and assured us they would delete our information as soon as they could. We'll be in touch again if we receive another call.

I recently had a call from someone claiming to be with the Global Advice Bureau. They mentioned being "endorsed by the United Kingdom government," which immediately raised my eyebrows. When I inquired about which department they were representing, they refused to divulge any specifics, stating they were "not permitted to disclose that information." I naturally asked for their telephone number, and once again, to my astonishment, they said they were "not authorized to share that either." Quite the dodgy conversation, if you ask me!

I've been receiving calls for the past three weeks now. When they ring, I’ve taken to asking, "What on earth do you want?" to which I often get a response like, "Apologies, sir, must’ve been a poor connection; could you say that again?" We willingly oblige, and it seems that they start to grasp the hint and promptly hang up. They just don’t seem to take the hint, but I must admit, it does provide a tiny bit of amusement!

Today, this number rang our landline while we were out and about, so we missed the call. To find out who it was, we dialled '1471', only to learn it was this particular number.

I received a call earlier today from a woman with a noticeable accent. She claimed to be from Microsoft and was inquiring about the number of error messages we've been encountering on our computer. Honestly, we found it utterly hilarious and couldn’t help but burst into laughter, to the point of tears. Eventually, she hung up on us!

We've managed to get a bit more insight into who the caller might be now that the caller ID is visible. As such, we're not going to answer if they ring again. This website has provided some handy information that proved rather useful.

We experienced something similar, receiving three missed calls in quick succession. The phrase "Not authorised" seemed to be their catchphrase. Eventually, I managed to glean that these callers are based in South Asia, but when I pressed for contact information for the UK office, I was met with total stonewalling. Quite the frustrating encounter, indeed!

I received a call from this number earlier this evening. It was an Indian or possibly Asian woman on the line. She claimed to be affiliated with the Global Advice Bureau and said they were sanctioned by the government to help us eliminate our debts. We politely declined their offer, which seemed to upset her quite a bit, and she abruptly hung up. Despite being registered with the Telephone Preference Service, it doesn't seem to deter the barrage of nuisance calls we're getting - we're averaging two to three a day!

I've had enough of these incessant calls! Despite making it clear that we want them to stop, they continue to bombard us with their nonsense. It's particularly infuriating because they even tried to drag our 17-year-old son into their schemes. Absolutely ridiculous!

Received a call from 01869228647, and when we answered, it was just an awkward silence after a few "hi's." Isn’t this verging on harassment? We’ve made it clear to these callers that we don’t entertain such nonsense. We strictly keep our home number private; it’s only there for internet purposes. Whenever they finally manage to respond, we tell them to erase our number from their records or we bombard them with fabricated details. “No, that’s not our address; no, that’s not us,” and so on. It seems incessantly bothering folks by phone has become the latest trend, hasn’t it?

An exceedingly irritating woman from abroad rang up, attempting to reach someone who doesn’t reside at this number. I had a hunch about who she was looking for. When we asked her to identify herself, she became quite defensive and absolutely declined to share any details. So, we decided to end the call on that note.

Received a couple of calls earlier today from a firm pushing unsecured loans. Honestly, I'm grateful that I've never succumbed to filling out any forms for those online loan companies. Lately, I've been bombarded with numerous calls and texts from various firms just like this one. This particular one, Global Advice Bureau, was frankly quite rude and hung up on me as soon as I declined their offer or requested my number be removed from their list. Ridiculous, really!

Absolutely right! It seems that Dr Apu BT is employing workers overseas who are handling our information and selling our details. When you try to call them, they often say, "Oh, this happens all the time." BT customer care claims they can’t do anything since it’s all coming from abroad, yet they’re the ones running the operation overseas! It really raises questions, and I reckon they ought to be looked into, especially their Asian contingent-some serious training is in order! With so many jobless folks here in England, why are we letting these large corporations export our business? It’s disheartening to see them dismiss us like this. I’ve been bombarded with more than four calls an hour for the past month, all the same routine: you pick up, and then it’s a robotic 'GOODBY'! What on earth is the point? I’d suggest asking BT about it-frankly, the more you report these nuisances, the more calls keep rolling in. It's a harsh reality!

I received a call at work this afternoon from this number. I picked up, only for a woman to say goodbye and hang up. Is there a way to put a stop to this?

It’s quite amusing, isn’t it? These folks seem to rake in commissions for every debt or loan they manage to offload, essentially acting as brokers for debt management and finance firms. It’s a right laugh, considering the job market in the UK appears to be in tatters, yet these companies can shell out decent wages to their counterparts in Asia. One has to wonder, if they actually hired talent from our own shores, perhaps fewer people would find themselves drowning in debt! But then again, that might put a spanner in their own works, wouldn’t it? Such a bunch of slippery characters!

I've been receiving these phone calls for ages now and I've given up on picking up. I've reached out to the Telephone Preference Service, but they said they can't do anything about this number. I've always kept my number private, so it's baffling how they got hold of it. It's quite unsettling that nobody seems to be able to put a stop to these calls; it feels like harassment to me.

I've received a handful of missed calls from this number, so I finally decided to pick up. On the other end was a lady-she had an accent that sounded Asian or Indian-claiming to be representing a government-backed service offering debt-buyout options at no cost. Oddly enough, she had my initials, surname, and even my home phone number, which I seldom share. She pressed me quite vigorously to disclose details about any debts I might have. After I declined for the second time, she promptly cut the call. Quite dodgy if you ask me!
