This number keeps ringing me and it’s becoming rather annoying!

Whenever someone inquires about me by name, I kindly inform them that I'm a mortician and I'm merely here to collect the remains. It does the trick splendidly!

I got called three times in like five minutes by a man with an Indian accent who said his name was Barry. He claimed he was calling from Windows and that I had to do some kind of security check on my computer right away. Told him I was busy and couldn’t do it at the moment, but he just got rude and said, “Just do it now!” So I hung up. Then he rang me straight away again, and when I hung up a second time, he called right back once more. Proper annoying. He said he’d phone again after 6pm - really hope he doesn’t bother. 84 years old here.

Got a call from some bloke in India, total muppet.

I received a call from this number the other day, and lo and behold, the chap on the other end started prattling on about computer glitches and how he could assist me. So, I decided to have a bit of fun and told him my computer had totally conked out and was stuck in an eternal reboot loop. He then insisted that my machine had a unique serial number that logs when it’s malfunctioning and proceeded to rattle off a lengthy number that he claimed was mine. He said he’d ring back in thirty minutes, which he duly did. I put on my best poker face and told him it was still kaput and off to the repair shop it was going. Not sure he was too chuffed, as he promptly hung up! Haha! Scammers: nil Clever clogs: one! Keep up the fantastic work, everyone!

I was fortunate this time as the voicemail took care of it! 😄 Generally, if I don’t recognise the number, I just let it keep ringing.

I received a rather alarming phone call from this number today, with the caller claiming that my computer's license was at risk of being cancelled due to numerous errors they had supposedly detected. They stated that this could lead to serious issues with my Microsoft applications and might even result in a complete system crash. When I expressed my doubts about the authenticity of their claims, the person on the other end abruptly ended the call. Quite suspicious if you ask me!

Informed us that these individuals were required to offload our Millwall holding shares.

This number has buzzed me like four times over the past couple of days. The first call was this bloke trying to get me to sit at my computer. I told him nicely my computer was alright, then hung up. Barely two minutes later, the same fella phoned back - he was Asian - and when I told him to stop calling, he actually told me to shut my bloody mouth and listen! I gave him a bit of a piece of my mind and hung up. Now, they’ve called me twice again today. Honestly, it's starting to bother me quite a lot.

Even though I've blocked the number, they keep ringing me every now and then. When I checked on 1471, it shows the same number as the caller ID. We all know there are firms here in the UK that assist these callers from places like India or Sri Lanka to make cheap calls. I’m guessing it’s these companies who might also be selling lists of unlisted numbers or something like that. Might need to track down those folks instead.

I put a stop to this caller a few months back. If it isn't one mob of troublemakers, it's another. The Indians certainly know how to pester, but the Irish aren't far behind either! It's a right pickle, as these blokes just won't take no for an answer!

This is clearly a ruse from Windows, isn’t it? You might as well have a bit of a laugh with them while playing a bit thick. I’ll often pop them on loudspeaker and let them rant away while I dish out vague and clueless responses. You could even say you’ve got to dash off for a moment because your doorbell’s gone off and then make yourself a lovely cuppa. More often than not, those pesky scammers will still be on the line, waffling away. After a little while of them spinning their yarn, just hit them with the classic, “Oh, I use a Mac!” At that point, they tend to hang up real quick! They want to fill my time with nonsense? I’ll gladly return the favour! Have a giggle, but remember-never divulge any personal information!

Received an unexpected call from this number. As soon as I realised it was a scam, I made it clear to the caller not to bother me again and ended the conversation. However, they persisted and rang several more times, which I just ignored. Eventually, when I did pick up the phone, they launched into a lengthy spiel and rattled off some seemingly random digits-so many, in fact, that I lost track after 25!. They tried to convince me that I could verify the number, promising they would ring back the next day. I firmly told them not to bother calling again. Curiously, I’ve had similar calls weekly in the past, but those ceased when I told them we didn't own a computer!

I received a rather amusing call yesterday from a woman named Shirley. You know the drill - she mentioned her firm had been alerted to some issues with my computer. I couldn’t resist throwing in a witty remark about whether she thought I’d dropped in from the last rainstorm! She seemed quite taken aback, so I simply said ta-ta and hung up. I was quite astonished that I managed to trace the number using 1471.

Received a rather peculiar call on my parents' phone the other day. The chap on the line insisted he wanted to discuss something about a computer. Since my folks were away, I mentioned there was no computer at home. He then claimed it was a laptop-presumably a lucky guess since they do own one. I kept insisting there was no computer, and to my astonishment, he wished death upon my wife! I had a chuckle since I’m not even married. Then he took it a step further and said he hoped my children would die too, which made me laugh again (as I have no children). He just wouldn’t quit, so I carried on laughing to annoy him further. Curiosity got the better of me, and I asked if he was in the UK. His response was a vehement disdain for us Brits. We went back and forth like this until he finally hung up, but I wasn't about to give him the pleasure of ending the call myself. What a nasty piece of work he was! I'd love to confront him in a dark alley one day. His English was quite articulate, though I’d wager he had a Pakistani accent (no offence meant; just my observation). I sincerely hope they’re recording these calls to work on their customer service skills! Honestly, the best outcome would be for him to lose his voice for good!

Got a call from someone with a strong foreign accent today, kept going on about my computer. They ring me no less than 10 times! I told them I’m on the TPS and asked them nicely to stop, but they just wouldn’t take the hint. Properly annoying how persistent they were.

I received a rather forceful call from a foreign gentleman today. When I put him on speaker, my kids heard him threatening to ring me repeatedly until midnight! I couldn’t help but chuckle and ended the call. To my amazement, I was able to trace the number using 1471.

No idea who they are, really couldn’t care less. Honestly, just shoot em.

It seems that on a typical week, I'm inundated with calls-around five, if I'm honest-all seeking a certain Mr Tuxford. Each time, when I inform them that he doesn't reside here, they always inquire if I'm the owner of the line. I foolishly admitted once that I was, and I've regretted it ever since. Now, when they ask, I simply respond that I'm a tenant. When that tactic began to fail, I resorted to blowing a whistle down the line at 120+ decibels; I can only imagine the earache I caused someone in the process! Just recently, I had an encounter with a caller sporting a foreign accent who was after the elusive Tuxford. Upon my confirmation that there was no one by that name here, he turned quite hostile. I probed further and learned that they weren't affiliated with any company-just an irate individual. His aggression only escalated... Next time, it's definitely a blast of the whistle coming his way!

I got a call from someone named Shirley asking if I’ve been getting loads of annoying calls lately. I said yeah, kind of like the one she was making right now. Then I told her I wasn’t interested and asked her to stop phoning me and to remove my details from whatever list she had.

I've been getting loads of calls from them and they just won't stop. Sometimes there's no one on the line, other times they actually ask for me by name. They call at all hours, whether it’s day or night.

Got a call from someone saying they were from some PPI claim company. Sounded dodgy to me, just felt like another scam. I hung up right away, didn’t even bother with them. Be careful, loads of these people pretending to help but just trying to rip you off.

I experienced something quite similar today. A chap rang me once, claiming to be from some tech support, and requested I answer a few queries. I was rather taken aback and hung up. A mere ten seconds later, he was back on the line, and once again, I decided to terminate the call. On his third attempt, he had the audacity to ask me if I was 'thick or just completely clueless.' I maintained my composure and politely requested that he refrain from speaking to me in that manner. Unfortunately, he then took a turn for the worse, hurling insults my way and disrespecting my mother. I queried whether he even knew her, to which he responded with even more venom. I firmly told him to never call me again before hanging up. My father tried to reach the number, but he couldn’t get through. These incessant calls are absolutely ridiculous and must be put to an end!

I got a call from this exact number but luckily I have call guardian so I never even heard my phone ring. After reading other folks comments on here I’m gonna block it now. I’ve had some dodgy calls before from people pretending to be Microsoft or Windows, trying to steal my info and get into my computer remotely. It’s proper annoying, no one needs all this hassle constantly!

I keep receiving persistent calls from this number claiming there's an issue with my computer and internet connection. They are incredibly pushy and refuse to accept a polite decline. In the span of just five minutes, they've bombarded me with roughly ten calls. What a nuisance!

A gentleman with an accent that didn’t sound local kept pestering me for my name. When I declined to share and asked him to cease calling, he turned quite aggressive. He practically shouted that he’d call me every single day without fail, and then abruptly hung up. Quite unsettling, really!

There was complete silence on the other end, and then after a moment they just ended the call.

Had a rather peculiar encounter on the bank holiday-received a call from a lass named Lisa, who claimed to be at some address in Victoria Street, London. She went on about a virus that was supposedly attacking our computer. I just let her prattle on for a good ten minutes before she abruptly hung up. What a strange way to spend a festive day!

I received a call from a woman who claimed I had issues with my computer. I tried to calmly explain that I work in IT and wasn't experiencing any problems. To my surprise, she erupted with profanity, calling me a f...ing liar and telling me to get lost! Talk about impolite! It's high time these sorts of calls were put to an end. Our government ought to take action to shut them down for good!

I received two phone calls today. The first one was some garbled man's voice, and the second was just dead air. Quite the peculiar experience!

I received a call from this number, and when I enquired about which company the chap represented before passing the phone to my elderly mother-in-law, he rather ungraciously told me to hang up. Quite shocking, really!

Just last week, on the 4th of October, 2015, I had a similar experience. I even called the number back, pointing out that it was all a ruse, yet they're still at it, trying their luck once more. What a nuisance!

I had a rather intrusive experience with a chap named Domonic, who claimed he was conducting a 'survey'. The moment I mentioned, "I do not welcome unsolicited calls and it's illegal to make them," he seemed to talk over me. It's quite appalling to think I'd engage with any business that so carelessly disregards such straightforward regulations. For your information, I'm unlisted and registered with the Telephone Preference Service.

I didn’t receive a response, which truly unsettled my little one, who's just three and a half. She’s quite sensitive to strangers who don’t utter a single word. It took her a good quarter of an hour to stop sobbing!

I’m inundated with a couple of calls daily from this number, and it's terribly frustrating. Each time, there’s silence on the other end, and not a peep is left on my answering machine either. It’s utterly exasperating, especially since we’re on the TPAS list to avoid these nuisances!

They’ve been ringing me nonstop for the past week, about several times a day. Each time I answer, there’s silence on the other end! I’m all set with my whistle for the next time they call! Quite fed up with their antics, to be honest!

Despite being ex-directory, we're still inundated with these calls multiple times each day. It's become rather tiresome! What steps can we take to put an end to this relentless annoyance? We’ve also registered with the telephone preference service, yet the calls keep coming.

We're listed as ex-directory and yet we still receive these nuisance calls multiple times each day. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to put a stop to this? We’re also registered with the Telephone Preference Service.

I've been receiving multiple calls each day for the past few weeks. Our answering machine picks up, but there’s never a message left behind. It's becoming quite infuriating, to be honest.

I've been receiving calls from this number incessantly, but every time I pick up, there’s just silence on the other end. It's rather irritating, as they’ve disturbed me not once, but twice within a mere five minutes! This has become quite a frequent nuisance over the last few weeks, and I’m thoroughly fed up. I want it to cease immediately. My number is hidden, so I'm baffled as to how they’ve managed to get hold of it. I've been registered to block unwanted calls for ages now!

Earlier today, at precisely 14:23 on the 17th of June, I received a call on my home phone from this number, which I discovered through the 1471 service. I chose not to pick up the call, but I would like to report it as an unwanted nuisance.

I’m absolutely fed up with this number ringing me incessantly. Every time I answer with a friendly "hello", they promptly cut the line! It’s rather irritating, to say the least!

I received a call concerning my pension, with the caller insisting they could conduct a review. I informed them that I don’t possess a pension at all, to which they replied rather obstinately that I actually do. I ended up telling them to shove off, and warned them that if they didn’t, I'd come after them to make sure their phone ended up somewhere rather unpleasant!

Just received a call from this number a mere five minutes ago. When I picked up, there was no response on the other end. Honestly, the lack of courtesy is astounding; one might think they've come from the dregs of society! So, take my advice: steer clear of this phone number!

I received a phone call from someone keen to discuss my pension arrangements. I mentioned that I didn’t have a pension, and then inquired about where he had sourced my details. The chap, who had a distinctly American accent, informed me that he had retrieved my information from publicly available resources online.

I received a call from someone claiming to be from Windows, saying there was an issue with my computer. I was quite sceptical and expressed my doubts, but he kept pushing me to comply with his guidance to resolve the so-called problems. Naturally, I refused to heed his advice and let him know that I had done a quick search on his number online. Just like that, the line went quiet! How convenient!

Received a call from this number regarding a supposed issue with my computer. When I feigned ignorance, the caller became quite inappropriate and lewd - utterly unacceptable behaviour!

I received a call from 04048915588, but when I picked up, it was completely silent on the other end. I then dialled 1471 to trace it, and it informed me that, "Apologies, the previous call was from a network that couldn’t share caller IDs." It’s odd how my caller display managed to capture this number, but at least it did!

These blokes are nothing but a bunch of timewasters, honestly!

I reckon it’s a right scam involving Microsoft Windows. It’s quite amusing to just pretend you’re a bit clueless and mess about with them for some time. I like to put them on loudspeaker and let them ramble on, responding with vague and rather silly replies. I often tell them to hang on a tick because my doorbell’s gone off, then I’ll pop off to make myself a lovely cuppa. Typically, those cheeky scammers are still on the line by the time I return! After they've had their fill of drivel, I simply mention that I use a Mac. You can usually count on that response to send them packing! They waste my time, so I’ll happily return the favour! Have a giggle but steer clear of sharing any personal info.
