We just had the exact same experience ourselves just now! So frustrating!

Earlier today, both my wife and I received a call from this very number, so we thought it best to share our experience on this site.

We've had a single call from 08716651616, and honestly, we're baffled as to who it could be. No idea at all!

The number starting with 087165**** is affiliated with Cheers International. Calling these numbers will set you back 10 pence per minute, but it’s significantly pricier when dialled from a mobile. They’re part of a revenue-sharing scheme, where the mobile network providers pocket a hefty portion before handing over what's left to Cheers. It seems the networks and regulatory bodies are conveniently overlooking this little racket. Cheers has a bit of a reputation with the regulators for these antics. It’s advisable to flag this to Ofcom and Phonepayplus!

I suspect that the singular call I received seems like nothing more than a scam aimed at racking up charges on premium-rate lines.

We just made a quick call, but hung up quite promptly after just one ring.

Absolutely, we feel your pain! It's rather exasperating, isn’t it?

Received a call from this number a couple of times. When I attempted to return the call, it prompted me to input my UK ID number or something similar. Quite odd!

The other day, we received a phone call that we chose not to pick up. Honestly, I haven't the faintest idea what it was regarding.

I had the exact same experience! At 16:58 today, I received a single call, but before I could say anything, they hung up. Quite strange, if you ask me!

Received a call from this number, but they hung up almost immediately after I answered. Quite strange, really!

Received a call on the 22nd of December, 2008, at precisely 3:38 PM, but when I answered, there was nobody on the other end. Quite baffling!

We received a missed call from this number about twenty minutes ago. It rang for such a short time that we didn't manage to pick it up. Does anyone have a clue as to who might be behind it?

It just so happened that we were away from the phone when we received a call from these folks. Absolutely no idea who they are! Quite the timing, really.

We've also received a lone call from the number 08716651616. I've got absolutely no idea who might be behind it.

A similar incident occurred to my partner with the same number-just one ring and then they hung up. It was at 12:20 on Christmas Day, of all times!

We experienced the same thing; received a call at 20:26 from the exact same number. It all seems a bit fishy, doesn't it?

We experienced something similar as well, most likely a rather frosty individual on the other end. We didn't find it worthwhile to return the call. It would certainly be helpful to identify who this was when the phone rings again!

Received a call from this number on my mobile at precisely 13:11 while I was on the road. Unfortunately, I couldn't pick it up as I was driving. I'm certainly not inclined to return the call. We always keep our mobile number private, so it’s rather suspicious.

Our partner had the same experience with this number - received a single call and then the line went dead. Can you believe it? It was at twenty past twelve on Christmas Day! What a time for a nuisance call!

Same situation on my end as well.

I received a missed call from 08716651616 around 4 in the afternoon. It's been rather bothersome as I've had several similar calls in recent weeks, and it's starting to get a tad annoying, I must say.

I just received a call from that number! They only rang once, and we felt compelled to return the call, but then decided against it because it seemed rather dodgy. We were concerned it might end up costing us a pretty penny or something similar!
