Phone number ☎️ 01887288589 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance scam number, often calling repeatedly throughout the day with no messages left. Callers claim to be from the Telephone Preference Service or a bogus call blocking company, using Asian-sounding voices and sometimes Anglicised names. They show knowledge of personal details yet seek confirmation of sensitive info like card expiry dates and payment methods. Many describe the calls as socially engineered attempts to obtain financial information, with one complaint noting the caller was notably persistent and evasive when questioned. Users generally find the calls intrusive, suspicious, and threatening, often leading to the number being blocked. The line is sometimes silent, adding to the suspicion, and ultimately frequent callers are linked to fraudulent activity with high annoyance levels from recipients.
Reports on phone number 01887288589
8 yearsToday alone, I've had 8 calls from this number. The last one I picked up, but there was nothing on the other end - just silence. Definitely one to steer clear of.8 yearsJust had two calls from 01887 288589 within ten mins. Pro tip: I always do 1471 to check the number, then call them back but prefix it with 141 so they can’t spot my number. No luck this time though, just a dead line. I’m making a list of these annoying numbers. Honestly, if I don’t know the number, I simply don’t pick up - family or mates would leave a voicemail anyway.8 yearsGot calls from this number thrice today, always saying they're from some call blocking company and telling me my subscription needs renewing. Number was blocked straight away, seemed like they were fishing for my card info. Definitely a scam.8 yearsGot a call from this number thrice, didn’t have a clue who it was. Looked it up and just went ahead and blocked it.8 yearsIn just three hours, this number rang me five times. I didn’t pick up any of the calls because the number was unfamiliar, and they never left a voicemail! By the way, 01887 is actually a Scottish area code.Scotland8 yearsI missed a call from 01887288589 but there was no voicemail left. Didn't manage to pick up in time.8 yearsGot a call a minute ago from a bloke with an Asian accent, said his name was Alan. He was pushing me to update some sort of call blocking service, claiming it was free. Then he started firing off questions like my phone number and where I live, things he obviously already had. After that, he grilled me about how I use my credit cards. I gave him nothing and just ended the call.Alan8 yearsHad missed a couple of calls from this number while I was out. Decided to look it up here, and luckily I did. Blocked the number straight away.8 yearsThis number, 01887288589, rang me thrice just within the last hour but every time there was dead silence when I picked up. Honestly, I’m really sick of getting these kinds of calls constantly.8 yearsThis numb3r has called me three times in the past few hours and all I got was silence. So annoying!8 yearsGot a call from an Asian guy who had my full name and address, claiming to be from TPS. He asked me if I pay my phone bills by direct debit every month. As soon as I heard that, I just ended the call.TPS8 yearsGot a call from a lady who sounded Asian, said she was from the telephone preference service. She told me they were updating all the nuisance call blocking starting tomorrow. Somehow she knew my name, then asked me to verify my postcode. I said no and she just ended the call. Funny thing is, she tried ringing earlier this morning, but I missed it and she left no voicemail.Telephone Preference Service8 yearsGot a call this morning from a guy with an Asian accent who said his name was Alan, working for TPS. He already knew my name and postcode and asked if I’m still getting annoying phone calls. Was a bit slow today so I said yes. Then he told me he could block all those calls for me. After that, he started listing a credit card number, asking if it was mine. I said no, and asked why he needed that info. He said it was to check my identity, but I told him he must've got the wrong person because that number isn’t mine. Then I just ended the call.AlanTPS8 yearsGot a call from a woman named Lisa, sounded like she knew my name, which was a bit creepy. She was rambling about how starting tomorrow they’ll be shutting down all nuisance calls. When I asked her to repeat her name properly, she just hung up on me. I’ve put her number, 01887288589, straight onto my BT Call Protect personal block list. Curious if BT tracks which numbers get blocked a lot and maybe adds them to some kind of global blacklist.LisaBT8 yearsGot a bunch of calls today, five in total. Every single one was dead quiet. Got one early this morning, then four came through this afternoon - three of those just in the past couple of hours, two right in the last five minutes. I reckon next time I’ll wait till they pick up and then blow a loud whistle down the phone. I’m on the TPS list, so this is just pointless!TPS8 yearsGot a call from a man with an Asian accent talking about TPS. He began going on about my direct debit card number being expired - which, to be honest, it was. I just ended the call straight away.8 yearsGot a call from an Asian bloke saying my TPS had expired on 6th October and needed sorting. I told him TPS shouldn’t cost anything and BT already blocks calls for me. He then said he meant some international call blocking service. He gave me a dodgy number to ring back. I checked with BT and it turns out it’s a proper scam.TPSBT8 yearsGot a call at about 10.45 this morning, they said the same thing as everyone else has mentioned, asking if I’m still getting annoying calls. I confirmed that I was. They kept pushing, so I told them to bugger off and hung up.8 yearsGot a call from a lady with an Asian accent saying she was from TPS, trying to pitch me better deal options. She mentioned I was paying by direct debit which was spot on, but then she told me my credit card had expired back in 2019. Asked if I’d renewed it, which was strange because the card is definitely still active. Felt a bit uneasy how much she seemed to know about my banking stuff.TPS8 yearsGot a call from someone with an Asian accent pretending to be from the Telephone Preference Service - well, at least a name that sounded almost like it. That made me suspicious straightaway. Then they asked for my bank account number and sort code, supposedly to verify who I was. Instant red flags there! I played along for a bit, just to waste their time. It really gets to me how these scammers keep targeting folks who might not be so cautious. Wish there was an easy way to block ’em for good.Telephone Preference ServiceTPS8 yearsI got calls from an unknown number, had about three more today making it eight in total. I just don’t pick up if they don’t bother leaving a message - not interested at all!8 yearsSomebody rang me saying they were from the telephone preference service. They asked if I was still receiving annoying calls. I said yeah, this one for instance, and then I just ended the call before they could argue me down.8 yearsGot a call from an Asian lady asking if I’m having problems with annoying calls. The same number rang me twice, once at 10:15 and again around 11:23. Didn’t pick up the second time though.8 yearsI've put a block on this number since it’s definitely a scam, best not to reply to them at all.8 yearsGot a really pushy chap from Asia who somehow had all my old mum's info. Was going back and forth trying to tell him the TPS is meant to be free, and only then did he back off. Turns out it was a completely different firm that also claimed to stop ‘international’ calls - total con job, honestly.Asia8 yearsGot another call from someone with an Asian accent. I just hung up straight away without saying a word.8 yearsGot a couple of calls from 01887288595, but when I answered, I just stayed quiet. The person on the other end didn’t say a word either.8 yearsI just had a call from a bloke with a funny accent saying he was from some telephone preference thing. I asked him to prove who he was, then gave him a piece of my mind. That number’s definitely getting blocked from now on.Telephone Preference Management Service8 yearsGot three calls from the same number just in the past hour. When I finally answered, a bloke named Richard claimed he was from Telephone Preference. Didn't sit right with me at all, so I told him to quit ringing and bothering me at this number.Richard8 yearsGot a call from an Asian guy who knew my name and claimed my TPS registration had lapsed. He kept going on about how it wouldn’t cost a thing to sign up again. Really stubborn bloke, wouldn't take no for an answer, so I just ended the call. Now my number’s on the blocked list.8 yearsSo this number kept ringing me about 7 times within an hour earlier today. Thankfully, my phone blocks calls from numbers it doesn’t recognise, so none of them actually got through. Still, all the missed calls are showing up on my call history.8 yearsGot this call early Monday morning, like 9am, and it was one of those call centre people with an Asian accent. As soon as I showed I wasn’t interested and asked what the call was about, they just hung up. Honestly, starting calls that early in the house feels pretty inconsiderate.8 yearsWe’ve only had this number for about three weeks and it’s supposed to be ex-directory, but I got two calls from someone with an Asian accent - one very early in the morning and another just after 2 in the afternoon. They kept asking to speak to Mrs Stafford or Trafford. When I asked how they got hold of the number, they just kept repeating our number back at me and insisting on those names, wouldn’t answer my question at all. Got fed up and hung up. Definitely not right, so I’m going to report the number.MrsStaffordTrafford8 yearsThey claimed to give lifetime call protection for free, which sounded dodgy from the start. Scary thing is, they knew everything about me, even the expiry date on my last bank card - and I only got that card replaced a month ago! I quickly ended the call and blocked the number straight away. Definitely not to be trusted.Submit Your Own Report (01887 288589)
