5 yearsGot a call from someone who said his name was "Ron," and he even spelled it out to make sure I got it right. When I mentioned he sounded exactly like "Dave," who had called me a few days ago, he just hung up on me!RonDave7 yearsSome time back, I got a few calls, but then they stopped completely for weeks. Maybe it’s because I started talking in a fake Asian accent and being quite cheeky with them...8 yearsI reckon this number might be linked to those dodgy calls we get all the time. This particular one rang on January 9th.8 yearsIf someone calls a number and shuts off before the voicemail even picks up, you can bet they’re up to no good. That kinda behaviour screams scam or fraud to me. Definitely dodgy stuff going on.8 yearsI’ve had loads of calls from this number and a bunch of others beginning with 02. Usually, it’s a foreign voice on the other end or they just hang up straight away without a word. I’ve gone ahead and blocked all these numbers on my BT phone now!8 yearsJust got a call, some Indian guy on the line, didn't even bother replying and hung up, then blocked the number straight away.8 yearsThis number keeps ringing me everyday.

Really strange.8 yearsThis number has been calling my home phone multiple times each day! Whenever I answer, I just say nothing and they always hang up.

I tried to find out who he was, but he just stayed silent. I kept asking him who he worked for, but his answer was all gibberish to me. Out of nowhere, he called me stupid and then just hung up! Ridiculous.8 yearsYesterday, I got a call from a guy from India asking about the kind of washing machine I own. Since then, I've received quite a few similar calls.8 yearsI answered the phone, waited a bit, but then they just ended the call!8 yearsGot a call from 02079243493 but it just went straight to voicemail, and then they hung up. Honestly, quite relieved I didn’t pick up!8 yearsSome bloke said he was ringing from #company# but when I asked him to say it again, he just didn't.

I asked what his name was, why he was ringing and what company he was from. He said he worked for KFC then just dropped the call.KFC8 yearsI got a call from this thing called YouBenefit, and when I told them to remove my number from their list, they flat out refused. They even said they’d keep ringing me every day!

I eventually just said goodbye and hung up.Smith8 yearsI answered the call but got no reply, then they just hung up straight away.8 yearsNo idea who it was, just silence on the other end so I ended up hanging up.8 yearsAnother pointless robocall, just a waste of time.8 yearsGot a call from a London number but I reckon it actually came from somewhere else. Probably just one of those annoying sales calls. If you answer or ask anything, you just end up getting even more calls. The TPS used to stop this sort of thing, but it doesn't seem to do much now.LondonTelephone Preference ServiceSubmit Your Own Report (020 7924 3493)
