Blimey, what a right bother! We placed just a single ad in Essentials, and now it seems our number's been splashed across every other magazine. Just had a cheeky call from Marie Claire magazine today, and they were really trying to sell us on the idea that our products would be perfect for their audience. Seriously though, can someone explain why they think premature babies would be flipping through Marie Claire? I’m all about clothing for premature infants here!

Just had a call from this number. The chap on the line claimed to be affiliated with Marie Claire magazine. I suggested he jot down whatever it was he wanted to discuss and send it over via email to my marketing team. There was a noticeable pause, and then he responded that he couldn't do that, as he wouldn't know what details to include until he'd had a proper chat with someone from our company. Honestly, this reeks of a scam!

We received a missed call on our mobile, but there was no voicemail left. We're quite puzzled as to who might have been on the other end. We're hesitant to return the call since we're unsure about any potential charges involved.

I received a rather peculiar call from this number earlier today. The chap on the other end asserted that my number had been featured in a psychic advertisement and was rather insistent on getting a reading. I informed him that there were no such services here, which led to a bit of a back-and-forth. When I pressed him on whether he was calling me dishonest, he stubbornly maintained that my number was linked to a psychic website. I firmly told him to cease contacting me, yet he continued to attempt to engage me in conversation, evidently wasting my time. Eventually, I cut the call and activated Zen Internet's call-blocking feature. Frankly, he seemed rather unhinged and likely involved in some dodgy business-perhaps he ought to be reported!

I received a phone call from this number, with a chap asserting that he’d spotted my number in a psychic advertisement and was keen on arranging a reading. I quickly informed him that there were no psychics here, but he continued to argue the point. When I asked him if he was implying I was lying, he doubled down, adamantly claiming that my number appeared on a psychic website. I firmly told him to leave me be, yet he persisted in trying to engage me, so I decided enough was enough, hung up, and activated Zen Internet’s call blocking feature. Honestly, the bloke seemed a bit unhinged, possibly up to no good-something surely needs to be done about people like him!

In our situation, it seems like we're dealing with an elaborate tactic involving a horse and dog collar, likely in an effort to make us reinstate the advertisement. We usually collaborate with them, you see.

Another call from this number, is it? No message left, just like the other complaints I've seen. Seems pretty evident that it's some dodgy firm or a sad individual trying to pull a fast one with a premium rate number, banking on folks ringing back to line their pockets.

In our situation, it appears that the magazine Horse and Hound is trying to get in touch, presumably to persuade us to renew an advertisement I previously placed with them.

Received a call on our mobile from the number 8082381600, but we haven't the faintest idea who they are or how they got hold of our number! It appears there's some sort of network of newspapers associated with JPC or JGPC. They've been known to charge for one advertisement and then keep swiping credit cards for additional placements in various other publications. In total, it seems there are around 160 different papers involved! We stumbled upon a fascinating discussion about this issue on the Money Saving Expert forum as well. Quite the revelation!

This number keeps bothering us every single day, ringing close to twenty times! We never answer since we can see who's calling, but it's quite baffling that they never leave a message. Does anyone know who might be behind this persistent nuisance?
