These sad little creatures have switched up their game now. It’s a pre-recorded female voice saying something like “thank you for signing up with us, we’ll ring you back soon.” Yeah, sure! To whoever’s sending this rubbish: Sort yourself out, you daft idiot!

This person keeps ringing me over and over with the same annoying tactic, I guess you could call it the "tap and dash". They use lots of numbers that are very similar. I've been keeping track and saving them for months now. Got loads of them that I'll be passing on to Police Scotland soon. If more folks did this, maybe they could track down the caller and get them in trouble properly.

Worth mentioning that 0843 numbers seem to charge you by the minute each time you call. Kinda feels like a bit of a rip-off, if you ask me.

08438930079 Ever since we got this phone about a year back, we get calls every single day. When I got our bank statement, I noticed over £200 had been taken out. I called EE and they said we'd been on the phone to this number from 11pm on 20/10/14 till 5am the next morning. They refuse to give us a refund, so I contacted BBC's Rip Off Britain and also requested a form from the ombudsman.

Definitely some dodgy nutters fishing for easy marks to nick cash. Rang me at 8:50pm but I just ignored it.

I've just had a gander at my recent mobile bill from Virgin and was taken aback to see a staggering 192.29 units totalling £78.92 linked to this number. I genuinely have no recollection of dialling it or even being aware of its existence. I reached out to Virgin about this baffling charge, and they assured me they would remove it from my bill. Fingers crossed they follow through!

This number keeps ringing but never hangs around long enough for me to have a word. Quite annoying, really!

Received an annoying call from this number earlier, it rang three times before they cut off. Definitely won’t be returning the call. Cheers for the heads-up on your website!

Gave it a bell three times and then silence. Sounds like quite a few others have experienced the same thing too!

Had a call that dropped off after just a couple rings as i was reaching for my phone. I went ahead and rang back cause i’m waiting on a parcel. Weird thing was, even tho i could hear the other side ringing, my screen said it was ‘connected’. Really hope it’s not one of those dodgy scams charging loads per second. Feels like they might try to keep you on the line ringing, but actually you’re connected and racking up charges. Proper shady if you ask me!

Just after five o'clock on a Friday, my phone buzzed briefly with a call from this number and then it cut off. I’m really pleased I stumbled upon this website for the details.

08438930079 rang me but I didn’t catch it - just saw it was a missed call. I rarely share my mobile number, so when numbers like this pop up, I save them as a PITA number on my phone (Pain in the arse) and just block ’em out.
12 years
They keep ringing at all sorts of times. The phone only rings for a few seconds before hanging up. I just let it ring, don’t pick up or decline, then chuck their number on the blocked list.

Received my inaugural call this morning from that 0079 number - what a right pain! A quick search online and they’re now firmly blocked. Honestly, what sort of total muppet resorts to this sort of nonsense? Seriously, mate, find something better to do with your time!

Got a call from 0843 893 0079 today at 2:20pm, it's a premium number. The call barely rings so you cant pick up properly. Reckon you should avoid calling back, it’ll probably charge you loads!

This call is a total scam, it keeps ringing but still takes money from ya.

I must of missed the call as I was asleep, 5 days later I checked my phone bill and seen £32 charged for an hour long call to this number! Thats daft, if EE is taking the mick like this I’m definitely ending my contract right away.

Got a call from 0843 8930079 and it was total scam. It rang a few times then hung up. When I called it back, I noticed it kept the call tone going and I got charged straight away. Absolute rip off, these dodgy numbers are no joke!

I received a call from this particular number not long ago. It rang for a split second before they cut the line. I decided to look it up online and came across all the remarks shared here. It's quite surprising to discover such a scam exists! A huge thanks to everyone for sharing their experiences. I've promptly blocked the number on my device.

As soon as I picked up, they just cut off the call. Definitely going on my blacklist.

I received a call from this number earlier today, but unfortunately, I wasn’t able to pick up. They didn’t leave a voicemail or anything. I decided to do a quick search on Google and stumbled upon several warnings indicating that this number is linked to a "ring-back" scam that charges premium rates. So, I’ve gone ahead and blocked it for good measure.

08438930079 rang me but I didn’t catch it! It showed up as a missed call. I rarely share my mobile number, so what I do is save numbers like this under names like “annoying pest” and just skip them.

Got a call on my mobile, it rang for about 3 seconds then cut off before I could get to it. Tried calling back but after 5 rings no answer, so I gave up. Fingers crossed it’s not some pricey premium number!

I received a call on my mobile on Saturday, the 30th of August, 2014, at precisely 1:08 PM, but as soon as I picked up, the line went silent. It's incredibly frustrating! I wish these interruptions would just cease!

Supposedly a pricey premium number - they only let it ring a couple of times to get you to call back. Better not ring them back.
12 years
Received a call that lasted just a blink - before I knew it, they’d hung up without so much as a word. Quite mysterious, really!
12 years
Clearly a dodgy operation! Their goal appears to be luring you into dialling a premium rate line. If you receive a call from a number you don't recognise and they don’t bother to leave a voicemail, it's pretty obvious that it’s not something that matters. Don’t fall into the trap of calling them back!
12 years
For heaven's sake, could you please refrain from calling and then just disconnecting? It’s quite frustrating, especially since I have a disability.

Received a few calls on my mobile, but each time they just rang a couple of times and then cut off without leaving a message. How odd!
12 years
I’ve never actually rung this number myself but spotted a charge on my phone bill showing a call lasting 129.29 units, costing me £78.92! I reached out to OFCOM and they advised me to speak with my network provider. At the moment, I’m still in talks with them trying to get the cost taken off my bill.

Beware of this dodgy operation aiming to entice you into calling them back at a steep price of 40 pence per minute. It's nothing short of theft by trickery, if you ask me. If you’re daft enough to return the call, you'll likely find yourself on hold for an eternity-over ten minutes, easily! Really, it’s no different than being pickpocketed in broad daylight, yet somehow, they get away scot-free!
