01917436690 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01917436690 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance primarily involved in silent or abandoned calls, often linked to medical alert or care cost scams targeting older or vulnerable individuals. Callers frequently remain silent, abruptly hang up, or use automated messages offering free or discounted personal alarms with concealed charges. Some claim government affiliation or pose as care advisers, employing high-pressure or confusing tactics to solicit personal details. Multiple reports mention unanswered calls lasting only a few rings and no messages left on voicemail. The behaviour includes frequent daily calls, sometimes accompanied by suspicious laughter, causing distress and concerns of harassment. New visitors are advised to avoid answering, block the number, and report it to relevant authorities, as it is widely considered a scam and potential fraud risk.

My dad, who’s 88, got a phone call from this number. The caller mentioned something about Medialert and asked if he was older than 50, offering it for free. When Dad asked for their contact number and said he needed to talk to his daughter, the line just went dead. Feels like a dodgy scam to me.

As a carer for an elderly individual with disabilities, I've recently had an unexpected call from the number 0191 743 6690. To my dismay, they hung up the moment I answered. I had thought that the authorities were making strides to put an end to nuisance calls. It's quite alarming how these situations contribute to scams and even burglaries, especially when folks are reluctant to respond. It truly feels unjust, and I believe the government needs to take more decisive action in tackling this issue.

This number called me earlier today around 11:45 in the morning. I missed the call because as soon as I picked up, they hung up. Nothing was left on my voicemail either. After checking this site and seeing what others said, I've decided to block the number. It's quite worrying how these kinds of calls seem to be on the rise again. Actually, I had a similar one even before I got out of bed! It was from a different place, but any unexpected call like this just makes you uneasy.

I picked up and all I got was silence. Pretty sure it was just a boring robocall or some kind of scam.

So, I got a call with a woman’s automated voice. I didn’t pick up right away, just said hello at first, and then it asked if I could hear them clearly. I answered ‘Yes’ without thinking, but then it hit me it was probably one of those scam calls trying to get you to say yes. I just hung up after that.

I just went ahead and blocked that number.

I've been getting calls from this number pretty much every day for over two weeks now. When I answer, there's just a woman giggling and then the line goes dead straight away. Feels like it might be some sort of scam, but it's getting seriously annoying and borderline harassment. Somebody really needs to step in and sort this out! #####

This number keeps calling me over and over, but when I pick up, there’s just silence or someone laughing before hanging up. It’s happening pretty much every day now and I don’t know what to do about it. It’s got me worried to even answer the phone. Why are they bothering me like this? Feels like harassment. - John Bernard, Cornwall

I've received calls on a couple of occasions from the number 01917436690, inquiring whether I was over 50 and if I owned my home. They mentioned that I qualify for a complimentary personal alarm. Initially, it was a woman who contacted me today, and when I requested her phone number to return the call, she passed me on to a chap. When I inquired about his identity, he introduced himself as Sam, claiming to be from Dorset. I asked for his number as well, stating I’d get back to him-though I had no intention of doing that. He promptly disconnected the call. Rest assured, I had zero plans to divulge any of my personal information or ring him back. I’m quite vigilant about potential scams!

Got a call at 2:33 pm from some medical alert number. It was a robotic voice trying to get my bank info to set me up with a daily fee of £1.33 for monitoring. They said the wearable gadget, which apparently costs £200, would be free. Total scam, just hung up straight away!!!
