02054236589 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 02054236589 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance caller associated with aggressive telemarketing and scams, often linked to a group calling themselves "Perfect Benefits." The calls typically involve abusive or threatening behaviour, demanding personal information, and using foul language when challenged. Many report repeated silent calls, hang-ups, and automated messages with little to no legitimate contact. Despite being on the Telephone Preference Service (TPS), the harassment continues, causing distress, particularly to vulnerable and elderly individuals. Attempts to block or trace the number are frequently unsuccessful as the calls originate from abroad or use different caller IDs. It is strongly advised that recipients do not engage, avoid providing personal details, and consider using call-blocking devices or services to mitigate these invasive and potentially harmful calls.

I frequently receive calls from this number, and most of the time, there's nobody on the line. However, today was different; a woman claimed to be from Microsoft's service team. It's quite clear that this is just a ruse that everyone is aware of, isn't it?

I keep receiving calls from this number numerous times a day, but all I seem to encounter is what resembles a fax signal. I've ditched my fax machine ages ago.

I've received yet another call from this number today-so many that it's becoming quite alarming. Each time I answer, I'm met with utter silence. It leaves me feeling quite uneasy, especially given that my husband and I are both disabled and live in a neighbourhood notorious for its break-ins. The lack of any communication from the caller is quite rude. Honestly, eight calls in just four hours is excessive, especially when I suspect it’s not a genuine call at all!

This number has been ringing me incessantly throughout the day and into the wee hours. Honestly, it’s those late-night calls that rattle me the most, as I instinctively grab the phone, fearing there’s an emergency with a loved one. Yet, every time I pick up, I’m met with nothing but silence on the other side!

A chap claiming to be Nick from Perfect Benefits reached out, but I had no idea who he was. He then proceeded to tell me to "f### off, you b#####d" not once, but twice. Quite the encounter!

Got a call earlier today from two blokes with Indian accents asking for my address and phone number. One of them then said he was planning to come over and have a go with me because apparently I ‘sound nice’. I asked him to repeat that, and he did, a few times! When I challenged him about it, the line just cut off. Proper dodgy!

perfect benefits 02054236589 was really rude and aggressive when I told them to take me off their list. They threatened that if I didn’t respond to his questions, he’d share my number with all the telemarketers.

I called the number after seeing it on my missed calls. They told me the number isn’t active anymore, so I’ve blocked it now.

So I got a call yesterday from some Indian bloke calling himself Dave. He actually gave out my phone number and address, made me wonder what else they’ve got on me! They keep saying it’s not a survey, just wanna ask a couple of questions! The call was full of delays and weird background noise. At one point I thought he’d hung up cos it went dead silent, got so fed up I told him to bugger off! Turns out he was still there, which shocked me ’cause of all the silence, so I just slammed the phone down on him!

A bloke with an Indian accent calling himself 'David' said he was ringing from 'Perfect Benefits' and needed to ask me some questions. He already knew my name and address. When I asked why he needed that info, he got a bit annoyed. I told him I'd only answer if he explained why, and he got proper irate before hanging up. Me and some mates have a little game to see how long we can keep these types on the line by messing them about. The longest was 20 minutes, but I reckon they’re catching on now. Most just swear and slam the phone down.

This number rings about 3 or 4 times daily! My mum even warned them she’d report to the cops. They actually called my daughter a f******g stupid little girl just because she said my mum wasn’t home. They keep asking for someone but if that person isn't there, they just don’t stop calling!

they rung me just once and i told them i wasnt interested. then they called straight away again and i said the same thing. this happened like 4 times, and they said if i answered their questions i wouldnt get any more calls. honestly feels like harassment, where on earth are they getting my details from??

From "Ideal Perks":
I’ve repeatedly said I’m not interested in chatting and that they should cease all calls to me.

Had a call earlier today from someone I couldn’t quite place. A woman kept asking me to confirm my age, full name and address. When I questioned where she got my details and what she wanted, she just snapped "Oh, shut up" so I ended the call immediately.

Every time I pick up the phone, it’s like I’m talking to thin air. I wait for what seems ages and then a strange beep sounds, followed by a robotic lady's voice thanking me before abruptly ending the call. It’s becoming quite the nuisance, and I’ve had my fill of it!

I'm not sure who rang me, but I've got a setting on my mobile that lets me block annoying numbers for good - and I've used it. We used to get loads of nuisance calls, a lot from overseas, and got so irked we ended up buying a phone with BT Call Guardian, which I'd definitely suggest. The software catches these calls before they reach you. Your call history will show you who tried calling, and you've got options like Allow once, Always allow, Delete or Block. Once you’ve blocked a number, it won’t bother you again. Since then, our phone's been a lot quieter.

Got another woman from India calling me. Told her I’d asked them to remove me from their calls but she just laughed and said they’ll keep ringing anyway. There really should be some rule to stop these pestering lot. I just string them along now, wasting their time and cash, and if they start getting rude, I end the call. Kind of like those people selling conservatories, drag it out and then give them a fake address like “second floor”!

They ring me up twice a day, despite me repeatedly informing them that I'm not keen on their offer. The last time I spoke to them, I firmly said no, and they hung up on me! It’s really quite frustrating and has left me rather annoyed.

I'm absolutely fed up with these incessant phone calls - they never seem to let up, whether it's morning or night. I kindly urge you to put a stop to this nonsense!

Some bloke with an accent I couldn’t place rang me from a company named Perfect Benefits wanting to ask me a handful of questions. I was hardly interested, so I guess that put him off because he ended the call pretty quick.

They ring me up daily, often just after 8 in the morning. Loads of times there’s nobody speaking when I answer. They’re really annoying and since we’re both not well, it’s causing us quite a bit of stress.

Got a call from someone today trying to get all my info, sounded like he was from Pakistan. When I asked who he was and what company he worked for, he told me to buzz off with some nasty language. Proper rude bloke.

They're perpetually ringing us up! I’ve implored them to take our number off their list, and I’ve made it clear that their incessant calls are now considered illegal under UK law. One day it’s a call supposedly from Google, the next it’s some vague outfit claiming to be BT, and then I’m bombarded with inquiries about our Windows PC. Good grief, it's ridiculous! These people are nothing short of shady!

They kept ringing me for ages, won’t take me off their list and even said they’ll share my number with loads of other firms so I'd get even more calls. Don’t bother speaking to them, just give a loud whistle and as soon as they mention Perfect Benefits, blow as hard as you can!

This phone number is risky for elderly folks, best not to pick up.

Today alone I’ve been called about 5 times. Whenever I ask them for their freephone number or where they're based, they refuse to answer. I’ve said they’re really messing up my day and interrupting my business, but it seems they couldn’t care less. Before, some of them even told me to get lost, and most times the call ends with them just hanging up. I’ve lodged a complaint with the ICO to see if that can sort it out. Next step might be to ask BT to block their numbers.

Got a call at 1.17pm on 21/09/2016 from someone who said he was Jason, though honestly, it sounded like a woman speaking. I've got TPS registered on my phone, so I get really annoyed when pesty calls like this come through while I'm busy. I told him to buzz off, and he started telling me to get lost over and over, then said he'd share my number with other firms so I'd keep getting calls non-stop. I said that's illegal, but he just shrugged it off saying 'whatever'. I told him to drop dead and then I cut the call.

I reached out to BT concerning this number that keeps pestering me. They informed me it's a scam call originating from outside the UK, which apparently they can't prevent from coming through their exchange. I was advised that should I opt for caller ID - something that I could access since I've got a nuisance-blocking phone - then I could effectively block those calls. Alternatively, if I signed a new 12-month contract, it would be provided at no extra charge. It's baffling really, in this day and age, that they can't thwart such calls. Why haven't they involved the authorities here in the UK, or even contacted the country where these scammers are based, to help bring them to justice? Honestly, I dread answering the phone now!

Got a call from an Indian bloke asking me to verify personal info. Didn't answer how he insulted me when I said no, bit too rude. It’s really scary for us older people who live on our own. I’ve blocked the number now but surely the authorities can do more to stop this kind of harassment?

I received a trio of calls on the same afternoon, and I made it very clear that they should remove my number from their database. After doing a 1471 to track the digits, I called the number back only to be greeted by a recorded message stating 'you have missed dialled'. Absolutely shocking behaviour! I’m signed up with the Telephone Preference Service, yet it seems to be failing miserably!

I received a call from this number requesting that I participate in a survey. I told the caller quite plainly that I refuse to divulge personal information to strangers on the phone. This seemed to agitate him, and he started to hurl some rather rude remarks before I ended the call. To my shock, he then continued to ring me incessantly, around four or five times, becoming increasingly menacing and aggressive. He even made threats, claiming he would keep calling every minute throughout the day until I obliged him with answers.

I seem to be inundated with calls from this number. The most recent one was from a chap who sounded like he was from India or Pakistan. When I chose not to engage, he had the audacity to declare he would ring me twenty times a day until I responded. When I rebuked his manner, he just chuckled and hurled some expletives my way. It's beyond me how such behaviour is tolerated.

I simply ignored the call that came through. I receive countless calls daily and have adopted the policy of not picking up unless I recognise the number. Instead, I rely on 1471 to trace who attempted to reach me, allowing me to return the call if it's someone I know. I'm also in favour of initiatives aimed at tackling those pesky nuisance calls!

I received a call from this number earlier today. I expressed my frustration with the incessant calls from this dreadful company and requested they cease their calls. "Eric" responded by insisting that they weren't dreadful at all and even threatened to shoot me! Why on earth can't someone put a stop to these nuisance calls?

Got a call from a bloke with a strong Indian accent (and I’m definitely not as rude as he was). He asked if the info he had for me was right. I asked him twice what the call was about. Then he told me to ‘f### off’ and ended the call. I’m flagging this number as risky since he already knows where I live.
