Reports on phone number 02010256890
10 yearsGot a call from some phone management company saying I needed to pay for a call blocking service. I told them I never signed up for anything like that (I'm on the TPS list anyway) and asked where they got the nerve to call me. Next thing, they just cut me off! Good riddance, must be another scam. I keep getting these annoying calls even though I’m on TPS.Telephone Preference ServiceTPS10 yearsReally concerning. The person on the phone spoke to my elderly mum for a good few minutes, pretending to be from the TPS and asking for credit card info. It was a bit hard to catch everything they said, but the caller was so insistent and smug you’d think they think it works sometimes. Makes me worry there’s some people who actually fall for it.Telephone Preference Service10 yearsGot a caller from London claiming to be Telephone Preference Management, but the line was all crackly and breaking up. They asked if I’m still bothered by spam calls. Told them yeah, then just as I said that, I couldn’t hear a thing properly so I ended the call. Bit of a pain really.Telephone Preference ManagementLondon10 yearsIt's an absolute nuisance! This caller keeps ringing throughout the day, but there's never anyone on the other end when I pick up. So frustrating!10 yearsGot a dodgy call claiming to be from my phone company, asking for my bank card info. Luckily, I’d recently watched one of those OWL watch videos about these scams, so I was on alert. I asked them to confirm some details about the provider first, but they totally messed up and couldn’t give the right info. Pretty obvious scam after that.OWL Watch10 yearsThis number kept ringing me non-stop. I finally picked up on their third try today. They said they were with some kind of telephone preference thing and asked if I was still annoyed by unwanted calls. I told them straight up, you’re the real pain here, so just stop calling. Then they just hung up. I've blocked the number now but I’m sure the random calls won’t ever really stop.10 yearsI just had a rather dodgy call from this number. An Asian gentleman claimed he was verifying my TPS status. However, as soon as he started probing about my credit card details, I firmly replied, "No thank you, I don't trust you," and promptly disconnected the line.10 yearsI’ve received a number of calls from this particular number lately. On this occasion, I was speaking to an Asian gentleman, who boldly stated he was representing TPS. He insisted I verify my name, address, and even my credit card information! I can't stress enough - this is a scam! Do not, under any circumstance, disclose any personal or financial details. My advice? Just hang up immediately and be sure to report this number to your phone service provider as well as Action Fraud. This will help ensure that they take action against it. Stay safe, everyone!TPS10 yearsI’ve been receiving numerous calls from this number, and today I had the misfortune of speaking to an Asian gentleman who falsely claimed to represent the Telephone Preference Service. He insisted that I verify my name, address, and even my credit card information. It’s important to let everyone know that this is undoubtedly a scam! Please refrain from sharing any personal or financial details with these callers. My advice is to simply hang up and report the number to your telecom provider and Action Fraud. Taking these steps can help ensure the number gets shut down. Stay vigilant and protect your information!Telephone Preference ServiceAction Fraud10 yearsTonight, within less than an hour, I got three calls from this number. Each time I picked up, it was dead quiet on the other end. I’ve told Virgin about it so they can keep an eye on it, and I’m definitely blocking this number to stop these scammers.Virgin10 yearsThis number called me but hung up after just about 12 seconds. I tried to call back and ended up finding this site instead. Glad I missed whatever that was about!10 yearsGot a call from this number earlier on. The caller was an asian bloke who was accusing me of being involved in some terrorist activities. I told him to leave me alone and ended the call. Then he rang back asking why i ended the call so quickly. I just told him off and hung up again. Honestly, this sounds like a dodgy scam call, so watch out for it.10 yearsJust like others have said, I got a call asking me to confirm some personal information. I told them right away if they had my info already, then they were clearly scammers because the TPS would never ask for that kinda stuff. I wasn’t about to share any of my details with them.Telephone Preference Service10 yearsI got a call from a guy who said he was from some Telephone Management Service, sounded Asian. He asked me to give my name, address and credit card info, which felt dodgy right away. Honestly, watch out because this is a total scam. Never share your personal or bank details with callers like that. I’d just tell you to hang up straight away and report the number to your phone company and also to Action Fraud. If enough people do that, they might shut down the number.Telephone Management Services10 yearsGot a call on 20/7/16 at 7:27pm and they actually already had our last name. When my wife tried to find out who they were calling from, they just hung up straight away. Without knowing that, we can’t report them to the TPS. Honestly, when will the government get a proper regulator to handle this? TPS, OFCOM and the Information Commissioner don’t seem to be doing much about it.Telephone Preference ServiceTPSOFCOMInformation Commissioner10 yearsThis number keeps dialling us, looking for someone we’ve no knowledge of whatsoever. It’s as if they don’t grasp that we’re not the individuals they’re after. Just today, I had a chat with this chap and insisted he remove our number from his records since we’ve no clue who he’s on about. The cheeky sod promptly hung up on me! Fuming, I tried to call back, only to discover that the blasted number is a phantom! Had no inkling this was a scam but it’s definitely going on my block list!10 yearsThey kept calling me roughly 20 times in 5 days, saying they were from the TPS. Wanted me to verify my info so I could sign up again.TPS10 yearsI use a BT Guardian phone and it blocks calls from anyone who doesn't say who they are right away. Every evening, we look at the list of calls that never made it through to our house and it's always a relief. Honestly, the BT Guardian is hands down the best gadget we've ever bought. We've had it for nearly a year now and not a single nuisance call has come through during that whole time!BT Guardian10 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be from Telephone Preference Management, saying they could help block international scam calls by extending the TPS. They wanted me to sign up again and provide my details. But as soon as I mentioned I'd look them up online, they just ended the call. Pretty suspicious if you ask me.Telephone Preference ManagementTPS10 yearsAn individual of Asian descent, who was masquerading as a representative from BT, swindled £180 from my father, who has some learning challenges. It's absolutely outrageous that there are people out there who would stoop so low. What a disgraceful act!BT10 yearsSome person said they were from the TPS and asked if I were gettin annoying calls. I told 'em yeah, and in fact they were one of those as they’ve rung me about five times in just a few days. I told them to take me off their list and never call again. Honestly, they should just find a decent job instead of botherin folks like this.Telephone Preference Service10 yearsLike others have said already, I told the bloke I wasn’t who he was after, yet he just hung up without saying anything. When I tried offering help, he just replies with a quick "No2". Pretty sus if you ask me. What puzzles me is how they manage to fake the number so it shows up on my caller ID, but when I ring back it just says “the number you have dialled is not recognised”. Proper dodgy!10 yearsI keep getting persistent calls from this number, despite my requests to be removed from their calling list. It's quite frustrating, and I'm unsure of how to block it on my landline. Any guidance would be appreciated!10 yearsGot two calls today from someone saying they’re TPS. When I asked if they were for real and if I still get annoying calls, they just went off on me with some pretty rude language and then cut me off. Safe to say, I don’t believe a word they said (big surprise there). I’ve blocked the number but doubt it’ll actually stop them. Their English sounded a bit dodgy, but the insults were spot on, which was quite amusing!TPS10 yearsI recently received one of those dodgy calls. The moment the caller brought up the expiration date of my bank card, I knew something was off. I firmly told him I wasn't convinced of his authenticity and requested he refrain from calling me in the future. It’s quite disconcerting how much personal information they appear to possess.10 yearsThis caller just wouldnt stop ringing me, total pain!10 yearsWasn’t sure who was ringing so I just let it go to voicemail. I’ve got one of those BT Call Guardian thingies that tells callers to say who they are before connecting, but these lot never bother doing that. I’ve blocked them now but they keep trying about six times a day, can’t get through though. Honestly, that BT gadget is the best purchase I’ve made in a long time!BT Call Guardian10 yearsEric, seriously?! TPS? I highly doubt it! What a cheeky little rascal. Could be risky for anyone who might end up giving out their bank info.EricTPS10 yearsThis number, 02010256890, kept ringing me at all sorts of times today - like 12.35pm, 2.17, then again at 3.16, 3.57, 4.59, 6.01, and even 7.15pm! They’re pretty relentless with their calls. Luckily, I’ve got BT call blocker set up, so none of these annoying sales calls actually get through to me. Guess it’s their loss really!10 yearsGot about 5 calls from them today, all asking for money for some TPS thing. I gave them fake info each time. The woman on the other end sounded pretty pleased and even thanked me for being so helpful. Guess I wasted her 10 minutes instead!TPS10 yearsThey called and asked for someone who wasn’t me, and as soon as I told them they’d got the wrong person, they hung up pretty fast. They did apologise for bothering me, which was a bit odd. I decided to look up the number just to be sure, and it turns out it’s linked to a scam. But weirdly, when I tried to ring back, it said the number wasn’t valid or something. Don’t know what that’s about. I’m definitely putting it on my block list now.10 yearsIt buzzed twice within a mere 20 minutes. Thankfully, my BT Call Guardian put a stop to it.BT Call Guardian10 yearsSomeone rang claiming to be from TPS, asking for card expiry, start dates, and sort code details. I fed them some bogus info straight away. Then I told them the only irritating sales calls I get are from their lot. I warned them if they kept at it, I'd be reporting them to the police.10 yearsI had about 5 calls all during the same afternoon (my answerphone stays on to help screen annoying calls). Eventually, I got so irritated I picked up, and like others have said, they asked if I’ve been getting nuisance calls. When I said yes, he promised they’d stop starting the next day. That made me suspicious straight away because I can’t see why TPS would ring me out of the blue. Then he wanted me to verify my address, which was the moment I hung up and looked up the number.TPS10 yearsI've received no fewer than ten calls from this number, so I’ve decided to block it altogether.10 yearsThis number appears to be a complete hoax, and they seem rather desperate to get hold of my bank card information. They've called me several times-about four or five, to be precise. Clearly, it’s a scam!10 yearsI received a call from someone claiming to be from the Telephone Preference Service, inquiring whether I was still receiving unwanted calls. The caller was a woman who had a pronounced Asian accent. I ended the call immediately and decided to look it up on Who Called Me. I’m so relieved I did, as you’ve validated what I thought. Many thanks for your help!Telephone Preference Service10 yearsThis number has called me a few times already today, not sure who it is, so I've just let it go to voicemail. Honestly, I'm this close to picking up just to tell them to do one, it's seriously annoying me.10 yearsGot a call from this number with a bloke claiming he was from TPS, asking me to verify my card info to confirm payments. I quickly twigged it was dodgy and hung up straight away. Stupidly, I then used the same phone to contact my bank and ended up giving them my card info. Later, I found out about scams where they don’t hang up properly - they stay on the line and listen while you give details to the “bank”! It really freaked me out, especially as they already had some of my card info. Had to get my card blocked immediately!TPS10 yearsThey rang me saying they're from the Telephone Preference Service, asking if I’m still bothered by unwanted calls on this number. I told them yes, and joked that they're part of the problem! Then I just hung up.10 yearsGot a call that sounded exactly like the ones people mention here. The bloke got me a bit nervous because he knew the expiry date on my card, even though I never gave it out. I quickly cut the call and took a moment to calm down. After that, I rang up my bank's fraud team just to make sure no money had been taken without my say-so. Thankfully, all was clear. The bank assured me they'd keep an eye on my account. I've also blocked the number so it can't bother me again.10 yearsThis number has called me like three times today already. I didn't answer 'cos I didn't know who it was, so just let it go to voicemail. Honestly, I'm seriously thinking about answering and telling them to piss off, it's driving me nuts!10 yearsGot a call earlier today, sounded like one of those TPS people trying to verify info. The caller muddled up my last name and first name and spoke with a really strong Asian accent. Next thing, they asked for my bank details which I obviously refused. Then they tried to give me a different number to ring back to "confirm" the call was legit. I just ended the call straight away. From what I know, TPS never asks for money or bank stuff. I've already flagged this up to TPS and Trading Standards.TPSTrading Standards10 yearsI’ve been receiving calls from this number repeatedly, and whenever I pick up, it’s completely silent. It’s incredibly frustrating!10 yearsGot a call claiming to be from the Telephone Preference Service, but it was obviously a scam. Don’t trust anyone who rings up saying that - it’s just a trick to get your info. Be careful out there!Telephone Preference10 yearsThis number has been ringing me loads yesterday and today. I picked up today and, like some others mentioned, they already knew my name and where I live, then asked me for my new card info to “renew” something. I ended the call straight away and looked the number up. Now, they’re trying to ring me again!10 yearsThis bothersome caller has tried to get in touch numerous times, yet I haven’t answered and they seem disinclined to chat. Honestly, it’s a right pain!10 yearsJust like everyone else mentioned, I got a call from some Asian bloke who said his name was Mark, claiming he was with the TPS. He already had my name and address and asked for my credit card info to “update” their records. I quickly ended the call and put the number straight on block.MarkTPS10 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be from TPS saying my protection had run out. They seemed to know loads about me, even my bank (bit of a lucky guess I think). Then they said my payment card had expired and asked for new info. I asked for the last digits on my card to double-check, but the guy tried to throw me off with a made-up sort code instead. Obviously, I didn’t fall for it and just hung up straight away.TPS10 yearsI received a call from someone purporting to be from the telephone preference service, claiming that they were refreshing outdated records. They requested a payment of £15 to keep the service going, despite knowing full well that it’s supposed to be free of charge. They had all my details - my name, my address, postcode, and phone number. When I questioned their request for my age, they got quite hostile, so I decided to hang up.10 yearsI got a call from a woman asking if I was Mr xxxx, and when I said no, she still went on saying she was from the TPS. Then she asked if I was getting nuisance calls, and when I said yes, she said their system got updated and wanted to check my info. I just felt it was another scam so I told her I’d sort it online thanks. It’s crazy how these scam calls aren’t blocked or punished. Loads of vulnerable elderly folk might believe it’s genuine and end up handing over their info or even money. It’s really upsetting we have to deal with this rubbish.TPS10 yearsSomebody rang me saying they were from the telephone preference service, but as soon as I said I don’t get any spam calls, they just hung up straight away. I looked up the number here and I’m pretty sure it’s a scam.10 yearsSomeone called claiming to be from the Telephone Preference Service, saying they were doing upgrades because I'd been getting annoying calls from overseas. They rattled off my address, phone number, and even my postcode, then asked how old I was. I didn't see why that mattered, so I wouldn't give it. They went on about it being some sort of upgrade and that my info was out of date. Then they said I'd have to pay £15 to keep the service going. I just hung up there and then.Telephone Preference Service10 yearsI attempted to have a conversation with the individual responsible for the account, but when I inquired, he claimed he was from Telephone Preference Management. Even after pressing him on three separate occasions, he merely resorted to his rehearsed lines before abruptly terminating the call. Quite frustrating, really!Telephone Preference Management10 yearsWarning! Someone rang me saying they were from TPS about a call blocking thing. They already had my name, address and postcode which was creepy. Then they asked me to give card details to update a direct debit. That made me suspicious so I asked why they needed that info and suddenly the phone cut off. Tried calling back but got a message saying the number can’t be reached. Really dodgy situation.TPS10 yearsThey started grilling me about my personal info, so I just hung up straight away. Total TPS vibes.10 yearsI got a call from someone pretending to be the TPS, saying I had to pay a £20 fee just once to keep my number on their list, even tho TPS is meant to be free. When I told them I wasn’t gonna pay, they just cut off. Total scam, watch out!Telephone Preference ServiceTPS10 yearsThis number has been ringing me like mad for the past few days - I've picked up a couple of times but there's never anyone on the other end. It's super frustrating!10 yearsI got a ring at my office landline from someone claiming they were the official lot dealing with stopping scam calls. They said that was why they were calling, to check if I'd had any dodgy calls recently. But then they wanted me to confirm my full name and address before they could proceed. Right away, they guessed my home address, which is pretty creepy! When I said I wasn't comfortable giving out personal details and was unsure about the whole thing, they just cut me off and ended the call.10 yearsI received a rather strange call from this number today. They inquired whether my debit card had expired back in 2017, and before I could reply, they abruptly hung up. Much appreciated! Cheers, Lynn.Lynn10 yearsPicked up the call and the person hung up straight away - this happened twice in just a couple of days. Lucky I looked up the number after seeing other reviews.10 yearsHad a call from a lady saying my car’s TPS was about to run out. She sounded convinced but it felt off, like a scam or somethin'. Definitely had the usual pressure to sort it ASAP. Pretty suspicious if you ask me.10 yearsA person said they were from TPS and started asking me stuff about my debit cards and direct debits, but I quickly shut that down and told them off.TPS10 yearsThis number kept calling me but said nothing when I picked up. Quite annoying!10 yearsThis was definitely a scam, so I wouldn’t share any info with them. They called saying they were from the TPS, but as soon as I started asking questions and got a bit wary, they just ended the call.TPS10 yearsThey actually used my name when they called, but as soon as I asked what they wanted, they just ended the call. I’ve had to hang up on them before too.10 yearsGot a call from 02010256890 pretending to be from the TPS, asking me to verify some info. Totally a scam, told them to jog on.TPS10 yearsSomebody phoned saying they were from the TPS, mentioned there had been complaints about me getting harassing calls. Felt a bit iffy about it and just ended the call.TPS10 yearsI looked up this number and turns out its a total scam!10 yearsI picked up and there was a tiny pause, then a voice popped up saying my name and even rattled off my phone number and address. The connection was a bit dodgy, but it sounded like she was discussing stopping nuisance calls. The moment she began asking for credit card info, I ended the call. Definitely felt like a scam. This number has tried to ring us before, but we never picked up or got any voicemail.10 yearsJust got a call from 02010256890 but there was no one on the line, super weird.10 yearsI do shift work and keep getting calls from 02010256890 all the time, it's really irritating!10 yearsGot a call from this number, they wanted me to confirm my name and address claiming it would block all spam calls. Definitely sounded like a scam to me.10 yearsThey tried to trick me into shelling out money for TPS - definitely a scam!10 yearsReceived a call from this number on the 12th of July but chose not to pick up, as we weren't familiar with it.10 yearsI allowed the call to hit my voicemail the other day. There wasn’t any message left behind.10 yearsWhat a nuisance! With our shift work, this number keeps calling us time and again, and it's quite frustrating.10 yearsYet another scam in action! Why on earth would TPS require card information?TPSSubmit Your Own Report (020 1025 6890)
