08452609120 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 08452609120 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance from a company calling as "Direct reply Security Systems" or similar, often ringing multiple times monthly. Callers frequently hang up quickly or try to discuss home security or alarm system details, causing unease and suspicion of potential scams or even casing for burglaries. Despite many being registered with the Telephone Preference Service (TPS), calls continue, leaving people frustrated and cautious. Attempts to return calls often lead to automated messages or sales pitches, and the firm is not associated with well-known security providers like Direct Line. Some users have reported the number being linked to revenue-sharing scams. Overall, it's seen as an invasive and unwelcome telemarketing tactic that disregards do-not-call preferences.

Received a call at precisely 10:55 in the morning on the 29th of April, 2009. I answered promptly and could hear some sort of call centre noise in the background for a brief moment. After a couple of seconds, the line went dead as they hung up. Quite baffling, really!

I recently received a call from this number, but sadly, I missed it. After seeing this information, I'm rather relieved! I've registered with the 'do not call' list, yet it seems to have made no difference at all.

From the 6th of May to the 2nd of September in 2009, I received a total of eight calls from Direct Reply Security Systems, but I only answered the first three. Each time, I made sure to inform them that I’m registered with the Telephone Preference Service and then hung up. After spotting their number on my caller ID for the eighth time, I decided to report them using the form on the TPS website (just visit tpsonline.org.uk and click on the complaints section). Thankfully, since I took that step, the calls have finally ceased. Fingers crossed it stays that way!

I've received five calls this month from this number. Honestly, do these folks genuinely think we're going to divulge details about our home security to a complete stranger over the phone? I suppose some might, which sadly seems to encourage this company to persist with their inquiries.

A company by the name of Direct Response Security keeps giving us a bell, ringing at least once a month. They always assert they're in the area and ask if they can pop round for a visit. We've made it clear time and again that we’re not interested, yet they just won’t take the hint. It's becoming quite the nuisance!

I've received a multitude of calls over the past month, but all that's come through is just the ringing. There’s a strange noise in the background, and my phone’s been switched out since. After checking with 1471, I confirmed that the number calling me was 08452609120.

It's quite peculiar that every time we answered the call, the other party would hang up immediately. It certainly raises suspicions about whether they're trying to check if the place is empty so they can scout around without anyone noticing.

Not long ago, we bought a security camera from Maplin, and shortly after, we started getting calls from this number. Is it just a coincidence, I wonder?

I’ve had quite a few run-ins with this number, and I’ve been left feeling rather disgruntled. It’s high time I took it up with OFCOM. Their persistent calls are decidedly unwelcome, and I don't appreciate being badgered like this.

I just received another call from this company who were insistent on finding out what type of security measures I've got in place. It left me quite unsettled, to be honest. If you ever get a phone call like that, be sure to keep your personal details about your home under wraps! You never know what they might do with that information!

I recently received a call from this number and, given that I’ve been submitting a multitude of job applications, I thought it wise to return the call to find out which firm it was. To my surprise, the response I got was a rather alarming message regarding a burglary! We were both quite baffled - why on earth would they be contacting us about break-ins? That prompted me to check it out here, and, oh, what a good move that was. Honestly, these are nothing but pesky spam callers. For the record, had they actually managed to speak to us, we wouldn’t have divulged any details about our home. Honestly, who do they think we are? What a laugh!

We received a call from Direct Reply Security, offering us a complimentary monitoring alarm, but they mentioned there’s a £299 fee for installation. The person on the line wanted to find out the best time for a visit to our home. I’m a bit perplexed about our next steps. Considering we already have an alarm system in place, do you reckon we should go ahead and cancel this appointment? I’d appreciate any advice you could offer on how to handle this situation.

We received a call moments ago. We answered, but there was no response, and then it hung up. When we tried to return the call, an automated voice greeted us with, "Thank you for contacting Direct Line Security . . ."

I've had the third call this month from a company claiming to be called Direct, insisting they’re conducting security checks. Each time they buzz me, I tell them to remove my number from their list and that they shouldn’t have my details in the first place. If they dare to call again, I reckon I’ll just start chatting about absolutely anything and keep them hanging on the line for as long as possible!

Today we received a call from these individuals. After conducting a thorough investigation, it has become clear that they aren’t affiliated with Direct Line at all. Instead, they belong to a company called Direct Reply Security, and it appears they are exploiting people's fears about the rising rates of burglary linked to the current economic downturn. Quite a disconcerting situation, really.

We're currently being pestered by the folks at Direct Line Security, and to be quite honest, we've not the faintest idea why they keep trying to get in touch. Each time they call, we make a point of requesting that they remove our details from their list. Usually, we've managed to block the number, but today was different. Someone named Barry was on the other end of the line! Despite being registered with the Phone Preference Service, it seems that it makes no difference whatsoever. It’s quite vexing, to say the least!

Gave us a bell again today. Turns out it’s Direct Reply Security, not Direct Line. I must say, we found them rather off-putting and hung up immediately.

I find myself in a similar predicament regarding alarm systems and the fact that the police have seemingly opted out of responding to them these days. After we initiated our conversation, we were informed that a follow-up call would come our way, but then she abruptly hung up on me. Quite frustrating, to say the least!

I've just received the same bothersome call, but it seems they're only keen on chatting with homeowners rather than tenants. Earlier this month, I fielded a call from these identical individuals, though that number was withheld. With her initial sales spiel, it appears they might just be rifling through a directory based on the council's electoral register, which frankly strikes me as rather peculiar since we're listed only on the restricted register. As I've already registered with the Telephone Preference Service, I reckon it might be wise to bring this to someone's attention soon.

Today, our elderly mother, who's in her eighties, received a call from these folks. As soon as he mentioned that the young lady asked for his name, he hung up rather abruptly. It left him quite unsettled, to be honest. Thankfully, we looked it up on this brilliant site, and it put his mind at ease!

The Telephone Preference Service was primarily focused on sales calls, wasn’t it? Yet when it came to matters of "security" concerning insurance, it didn’t seem to apply. But the moment Direct Line starts ringing with their cover offers? Well, that's a different kettle of fish. Make sure you track them down swiftly. Give that pesky red phone of theirs a good whack and let them know you're not interested!

Steer clear of calling them back! That 0845 number is probably linked to some sort of "revenue sharing" scheme, meaning the person behind it pockets a slice of your call charge. In simpler terms, it’s a dodgy tactic! I trust you were clued up on that already, right?

Received a call from this number earlier. I answered, and there was a sort of call centre din in the background. Then, after a moment, the line just went dead!
