Apparently, there’s a market research company conducting a survey on behalf of the Department for Work and Pensions.

I received a call from 02084336084, and as soon as I picked up, the line went silent. Just moments later, the same number called again. This time, it was someone claiming to be conducting a survey for my local District Council, but curiously, they refused to actually ask any questions! Quite suspicious, if you ask me!

We decided to return the call to this number and discovered it belonged to a phone research facility affiliated with BMRB. They insisted they weren't a telephone sales operation, but we didn’t stick around to find out more details.

I've received a couple of calls from this number and honestly, I've no idea who it belongs to. We tend to run all our incoming calls through our filtering system, given the sheer volume of nuisance calls we get. If there's silence on the other end, we just disregard it. It’s just a reminder that we need to tidy up our settings now and then. That said, our situation has definitely got better since we registered with the telephone preference service!

Earlier today, a call came through for my wife from some folks claiming to be from the DWP. Curious, we returned the call only to discover it was a market research company. It’s a right nuisance, as I’m almost certain the DWP wouldn’t ring outside of standard office hours if they truly needed to get in touch. We've since reached out to BT, and they've advised that we'll be reinstated in the Telephone Preference Service. From what we've gathered directly from the DWP, they don’t tend to call unless you’ve specifically requested it. Quite the hassle, really!

This number keeps ringing us, only to hang up before we can answer. They never leave a message either. Quite annoying!

We gave this number a bell, and it turned out to be the BMRB Research centre on the line. They assured us they weren't involved in any sales business, yet we didn’t stick around to glean more details.

We've received a couple of calls from this number, but I haven't the foggiest idea who is on the other end. We route all incoming calls through our screening device, as I tend to receive a fair few nuisance calls. If there's silence on the line, I simply disregard it. Of course, it means we have to maintain the machine from time to time. Thankfully, things have gotten better since we registered with the Telephone Preference Service!

I've received numerous calls from this company. It appears they’re conducting some sort of survey, as noted by others in the comments. They keep introducing themselves as Bob, Ted, and Freddie, but honestly, their accents suggest they’re not even from around here!

This evening, at precisely 18:43, I received a rather bothersome call from this number. Upon picking up and uttering a simple "hello," all I was met with was silence-rather disconcerting, to say the least. Not knowing what to make of it, we decided to look up the number. Frankly, these nuisance calls are incredibly vexing; one can hardly endure them! At least with the 1471 service, you’re informed of who attempted to call, which prevents any temptation to call back. What on earth drives these individuals? Are they simply devoid of better plans, or are they profiting from this madness somehow? It’s beyond infuriating! Honestly, I'd love to have a word with them, but that might only add to the frustration!

I reckon this is a surveillance outfit. It appears that these folks reach out to individuals on behalf of someone trying to track them down-possibly a governmental agency or a collection agency, something along those lines. The moment you pick up the phone, these individuals can pinpoint your whereabouts, either through the queries they pose or by using the GPS on your mobile. They then relay all this information back to the person who hired them!

We've received a fair few calls from this number, but the moment our answering machine kicks in, they hang up straight away. Quite irritating, to be honest!

They purport to be affiliated with the Department of Education, conducting a survey as part of some type of dissertation research.

Last night at half past eight, we received a call from this number. However, the caller didn't bother to leave a message. We're not familiar with this number at all. Does anyone have an idea who it might be?

I received a call from this number, and while I was looking into some information beneficial for our local council, I asked about the number of adults aged 16 and above who were available. I also inquired if they could connect me to the youngest person whose birthday was approaching. At that stage, we courteously ended the conversation!

Once we brought the matter to their attention, we mentioned that we are registered with the Telephone Preference Service. The response we received was rather presumptuous, stating that "market research isn't governed by TPS." We clarified our position, asserting that we believe those callers are definitely not exempt, and we politely ended the conversation before hanging up. It feels like these persistent cold callers are fully aware of the TPS guidelines and are trying to fob us off with their assertions.

I've received numerous calls from this number. My answering machine is frequently activated, and it seems like this particular caller just sits silently through the message before hanging up. They’ve tried calling at different times throughout the day, and after checking this site, it’s clear we won’t be answering any more. Even though I’m registered with the Telephone Preference Service, it appears that it doesn't deter them.
