I didn’t bother waiting for the full message and just hung up straight away.Amazon4 yearsFed up with these constant calls.4 yearsGot a recorded message saying 'our sales team attempted to reach you, please ring back at your convenience'. I've blocked the number now.4 yearsFraud alert: rings 3 times then you get an automated voice message.4 yearsGot a call from a hidden number claiming to be from the NHS Blood and Transplants. It was reported and blocked, and BT's investigations team have been informed. Loads of cheek!NHS Blood and Transplant ServiceBT4 yearsGot a call from a private number claiming to be from NHS Blood and Transplant service, was obviously dodgy. Blocked the number straight away and reported it to BT investigations for checking.NHS Blood and TransplantBT5 yearsGot a couple of calls from this number, looks like some sort of scam. Best not to answer or call back, it’s dodgy for sure.5 yearsRings a few times then just cuts off, blocked the number and another one starting with 0843 pulled the same stunt.5 yearsI rang this number back and got an automated message saying I’d been entered into some sort of competition. They told me to call another 08 number to see if I'd won anything.5 yearsScam alert - they said “well done, your entry for the cash prize draw went through” then just ended the call.5 yearsGot a call about some Amazon Prime payment, they tried to get into my PC and got really pushy when I asked questions.

Didn’t get a chance to pick up and no voicemail either.6 yearsjust one ring and its so irritating!6 yearsDO NOT ANSWER THIS NUMBER, BLOCK IT STRAIGHT AWAY. I rang it from my spare phone (pay as u go) just to see what it was about. Some dodgy bloke with a strong Bradford accent picked up, saying he was from a debt collection agency for Amazon Prime. This scam number should be banned by OFCOM but those useless government people never do anything about it. Total joke.BradfordAmazon PrimeOFCOM6 yearsThis number, or ones pretty similar, keeps ringing once and hanging up every day - it's so bloody annoying.6 yearsdefinitely a scam, watch out!7 yearsI rang 0843 877 0497 from my landline but kept my number hidden. A recorded message came on saying “our group of admin helpers have been trying to reach you”. Could be one of those “you’ve had an accident” scams, I reckon🤔7 yearsNot sure who that was. Got a missed call from this number and thought I’d give them a ring back, maybe not the best plan. It was one of those dodgy recorded messages about winning a prize or something. Decided to block it now.8 yearsannoying nuisance really8 yearsSuch an annoyance!11 yearsIt kept ringing and just hung up before I could even answer, guess it’s one of those numbers that can’t be tracked or something.11 yearsNo response, didn’t leave any voicemail, now blocked the number!11 yearsive seen loads of posts online from different sites saying this number is part of some premium rate callback rip off. i doubt bt has anything to do with it. its probably safest to just steer clear of the number and dont bother calling back to check. youll save yourself the hassle of having to dispute weird charges on your phone bill.BT11 yearsIt rang just a single time, so I hit 1471 to check the number and when I looked it up online it showed flagged as a scam. Definitely not ringing back.11 yearsJust like loads of others, they call, ring once, then just cut off.11 yearsCalled me one time but I didn’t even hear it ring. Didn’t leave any voicemail either.11 yearsThis number only buzzed me once, I noted it down on 20/03/15, 4/05/15 and 10/06/15. I also got a call from 08438696699 on 30/03/15 but I didn't bother jotting all of them.11 yearsCalled just once!!! Most likely a scam call!!!11 yearsThey just gave one quick ring and ended the call right away. Sounds about right considering what others have said.

Seriously, don’t bother calling them back.12 yearsThis is definitely a scam, best not to pick up and just go ahead and report it.12 yearsCalled one time, then just hung up.12 yearsPhone musta just glitched or summink cause I never heard it ring.12 yearscalled me once and then just cut off! total scam!12 yearsToday (7/2/15) at about 2:48pm, I noticed a missed call from this number on my phone. Even though my ringer was on loud, I swear I never heard it ring. A little while ago I got a call from another premium number that looked quite alike, and since it didn’t ring long and the number was unfamiliar, I decided not to pick up. I’m probably just going to block these numbers now.12 yearsJust one quick ring and they cut off! definitely seems like a scam to me.12 yearsCalled one time then hung up, not really happy about it.12 yearsI got a call on my mobile but it just rang once and then stopped. Glad I checked this site first before calling back. Seriously, don’t ever call back if you aren’t sure who’s trying to reach you.12 yearsNobody else has my new number but this person must have got it from somewhere, probably my phone company. They rang once and hung up, this is the third time they’ve called.12 yearsGot a call on New Year’s Day. The government really ought to do something about these annoying scam calls.12 yearsI noticed this number called me a few times but it only rang once and then stopped. They didn’t leave any message or try again, so I doubt it was anything urgent.12 yearswhat the heck, got a call from them on xmas morning! unbelievable!12 yearsGot a single ring on my phone, then it just stopped. Happened at 5.18pm on 12/08/14.12 yearsThe phone gave just one ring so I couldn't get to it in time.12 yearsGot a call this evening about 6pm. It rang a couple of times then just went silent. Proper annoying!12 yearsGot a call from scammers, just once, probably trying to get me to ring back a costly number.12 yearsReally don't bother ringing them back! The number is a costly premium line from India, so it's going to cost you a fortune.India12 yearsJust one quick ring then they cut off, so it comes up as a missed call. Definitely don’t call them back, could end up costing you loads! £££££££&&&Best12 yearsIt only rang once before hanging up. If it’s coming through your landline, put it down as "Ignore." If it’s your mobile, just go ahead and block the number!12 yearsThis number rings me up at ridiculous times like way early in the morning!12 yearsno idea, just ignored the call.12 yearsAny idea who this number belongs to?12 yearsThe phone just buzzed quickly and then went dead straight away. Honestly, how do people let these scammers keep doing this? Can’t something be done to put a stop to it?12 yearsGave me a bell, then abruptly hung up. Quite peculiar, if you ask me!12 yearsJust when I was trying to get some rest (got M.E. so sleep’s precious), my phone went off. Sure enough, another annoying call from somewhere like Calcutta! I’m bombarded with these every day, with them even asking for me by name. Feels like if my laptop isn’t caught by a virus, it’s taken over by hackers! Definitely don’t trust these folks or let them near your computer. Honestly, I just tell them I don’t own one. And with this number? No way I’m ringing back. If you get sketchy calls like this, always do a quick online search first.Kolkata12 yearsGot a call from them, quite annoying. But I just popped their number straight into my block list. Easy fix, really. Problem solved, yeah?13 yearsTHE PHONE WOULDNT STOP RINGING!13 yearsThey only let it ring once, probably trying to get you to call them back. Just ignore it and don’t return the call.13 yearsDon't bother calling back, these people are total scammers. Absolute wankers.13 yearsI got called by someone from India, they just rang and hung up quick. When you ring back, it turns out to be one of those pricey premium numbers. Total scam, be careful!India13 yearsGot a call that didn’t even ring through. Turned out to be from some call centre in India. When I tried ringing back, they hit me with those dodgy extra fees. Total scam.13 yearsThey gave me a ring, but after seeing what everyone’s saying here, I chose not to return the call.13 yearsThey make you pick up the phone, then charge you a quid just to listen to rubbish. If you’re confused, you ring back and then they nick two quid from you. Trust me, it’s a waste.13 yearsThey keep calling, but only let it ring once, probably hoping you'll ring them back on some expensive premium line.13 yearsHonestly, don’t even think about ringing that number or you’ll end up getting charged £1.60 a minute! It’s just one of those dodgy scams from Pakistan trying to trick you into calling back. Stay clear!Pakistan13 yearsIdiots keep doing this to me all the time.13 yearsThis number keeps bothering me by ringing just once or twice and then cutting off. It’s been happening a few times every week, even a couple times in one day sometimes? Pretty obvious it’s a dodgy scam call.13 yearsI've seen this number being linked to the Police Operation Yewtree on a few places online, but that's totally not true! Either someone’s been fed rubbish or they’re having a laugh. The truth is, it's just some telemarketer who rings you and drops the call before you even pick up, so it shows up as a missed call. Then when you ring back, you're charged a premium rate line which makes them a quick buck. Avoid calling back, it's a con!13 yearsI managed to speak to the caller eventually, and it was actually someone from the police, something about operation Yewtree. They’re following up on some old cases apparently. They told me if you’ve got nothing to hide, there’s no need to worry. But as they say, where there’s smoke... well, you know the rest.Yewtree13 yearsThis number keeps ringing me all the time so ive put it down as a nuisance and just let it go to voicemail now.13 yearsI got three calls from this number, but as soon as I pick up, they just hang up on me! What’s the point of calling if you’re not gonna say anything?!13 yearsGot a call on Sunday around 4.30 in the afternoon, but I just ignored it thinking it’d be another one of those dodgy accident or PPI scam calls. I get quite a few of these every now and then and then heard that the Telephone Preference Service doesn’t really help much in blocking these annoying calls. Makes me wonder why we’re even paying for it. Either they should cut the budget or maybe the government needs to step in and make them do their job properly.Telephone Preference Service13 yearsAt lunchtime today, I got a call on my mobile. What a bunch of muppets!!13 yearsGot a call on Sunday 19/01/14 at 1.42pm but it just rang once and stopped before I could pick up. No clue who they were or why they’d be bothering me on a Sunday afternoon. Proper annoying! Five stars for nuisance value.Submit Your Own Report (0843 877 1786)
