0894623188 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 0894623188 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance auto-dialler associated with accident claim scams, often using international or disguised numbers. Callers typically claim to represent accident helplines and allege the recipient was involved in a recent car accident, despite many recipients denying this. The calls are frequently silent, abruptly ended, or end when asked for company details. Callers may use aggressive or evasive tactics, often hang up when challenged or asked to remove the number from their database, and sometimes seek personal or financial information. These calls target both private and business lines, including ex-directory numbers and those registered with the Telephone Preference Service, rendering standard blockades ineffective. Reporting to regulatory bodies and caution in answering such calls is strongly advised.

Got a call where they wanted to speak to my dad, I told them he wasn’t home right now and all I got back was a loud “OK” before they just cut me off. If this is some business, that’s properly dodgy and shouldn’t be allowed. Why can’t anyone figure out who they are? Maybe it’s not even a proper company?

They keep calling my landline, but anyone with that number I've told just hangs up after 2 rings and then rings back. So I’ve never picked up - just waiting for them to stop, but the phone just keeps ringing non stop whenever they call.

I'm pretty sure this number belongs to the same lot as 0020 3121 2323 and 00120 3121 2323 - we kept getting calls from all of them at the office yesterday (they just hang up as soon as we pick up). Then this morning, I checked my work voicemail and found 47 messages from these three numbers!

Got a really frustrating call from someone saying I’d been in a car crash and my info was shared. The caller was a British bloke, although before I got a similar call from an Asian man. Totally made up stuff. When I called them out on it, they said it made no sense for them to just buy random data and ring people out of the blue. I told them to take me off their list and blocked the number, but it looks like they have a bunch of different ones.

Had a guy with an Asian accent talking really fast and low, trying to squeeze into the chat asking if I’d had an accident in the past couple years! I told him I’m not sharing any personal details and if he wanted to reach me, he should write. Then he just hung up. Sounds like some sort of scam or someone fishing for info, best not to talk to them.

Just got a call from an asian bloke, sounded really pushy. He said his name was Shoeb from some "accident advice services" and claimed I’d been in an accident, that Axa gave him my info. I told him I’m on the TPS list and he shouldn’t be ringing me. He got annoyed and then hung up.

This number shows up on my caller ID as INTERNATIONAL, hiding the real number 0894623188 (which my phone can actually show). It's one of those call centre autodiallers. When you answer and say something, the autodialler picks up your voice and puts you through to a call centre agent, usually overseas. The best way to handle these calls is to just pick up and say nothing. Wait for about 4 or 5 seconds and the autodialler will hang up. If it was a real person they'd start talking within that time like "Hello? Can you hear me?" They're really annoying!
12 years
0894623188 automated calls really should be reported to the proper authorities so they can collect enough complaints to look into the firm behind them. If someone rings and won’t provide all the details you request, like company name, address, or email, then fill out a complaint on the Information Commissioner’s Office website at www dot ico dot org dot uk. For silent calls, you should report them to Ofcom at www dot stakeholders dot ofcom dot org dot uk slash tell-us. Just a heads up, this site won’t let me type the web addresses in the usual way.

Received a call from my workplace earlier today, but what struck me as peculiar was that the caller somehow managed to reach every extension within the office. This shouldn’t be feasible since only my phone and my colleague's can take incoming calls-we're the main point of contact. It’s quite baffling how they managed to pull this off, especially considering this isn't the first occurrence! What on earth is going on here?

I work for X directory and Tesco. I just got a call from a guy with a strong asian accent. The only thing I managed to make out was "your recent car accident". I told him I hadn’t had any accident and then ended the call. Makes me think this might be an autodial system instead of them sharing/selling phone numbers.

I get calls from this number several times a day, usually 3 or 4. It’s a guy speaking with a pretty strong Asian accent. He begins by saying he’s from the Accident Advice Line, but the moment I try to tell him to take my number off their list, he just cuts the call.

I've only had my landline installed for a short while, just a couple of months, and I’ve only shared my number with a handful of folks. The other day, my landline rang, and there was a weird silence for a few seconds before a woman eventually spoke. She inquired about my well-being and, to my surprise, called me by my name! She then proceeded to mention a minor car accident that I supposedly had. Confused, I replied that I don’t drive, and just like that, she hung up. Who on earth was that, and how did she get hold of my name?

If you don’t know the number, just don’t pick up. Easy as that! Important calls will usually leave a voicemail anyway.

I've got a secondary line that lacks caller ID features. Generally, I refrain from picking up when it rings and instead, I wait to check if a voicemail has been left. If there’s no message, I resort to a site like this one after performing a 1471 to investigate the number that called. Some comrades have been curious as to why these calls often turn up silent. My theory is that they employ some sort of automated system that methodically dials through numbers. If someone does happen to pick up, that particular number gets marked as active, which means you can anticipate receiving live calls in the future - congratulations, you’ve made it onto their radar!

On the 13th of January 2015, I found myself in a state of utter panic, anxiously anticipating news about a loved one who’d been hurried to the hospital. When the phone finally rang, my heart dropped upon seeing this unfamiliar number - only to be met with an eerie silence. It was a truly dreadful period, filled with uncertainty, until we finally decided to look up the number on a website. It’s disheartening how little regard they seem to have for the anguish they may cause. For the love of all that's good, please put an end to this madness!

Got a call from a guy with an Asian accent, sounded like he was from some call centre. I could hardly get what he was saying, and I reckon he had the same trouble with me.

He phoned me a couple of times even after I said it was a business line. Proper annoying, nonstop pestering calls!

So I told him I’d intentionally driven into some muppet from his call centre, then told him to bugger off!

5/1/15 Accident Helpline. Managed to get the Asian lady on the line to say who she was again and confirm that someone here had a small accident recently (which wasn’t the case). Hung up and blocked the number straight away. I don’t usually pick up these kinds of calls but this one fooled me since the number looked a bit like a local one.

I received two phone calls earlier today, but each time they just cut off without saying a word. It's rather puzzling, isn't it? What on earth could be their reason for this strange behaviour?

No one said a word, just silence.

Got a call claiming to be from Accident Helpline. The line was awful, all crackly and the bloke had a thick Indian accent. He said he wanted to talk about a recent car accident I supposedly had. I told him I hadn’t been in any accident lately and he just said he must have dialled the wrong number. Definitely felt like a spam call to me.

Got calls to our office phone like 40 or 50 times today. Sometimes, no one spoke, other times it was a bloke with an Indian accent from some call centre.

Got a call from this number earlier, they were quiet for a few seconds then cut the call. Tried ringing back but the number wouldn't connect. Called at like 8:15pm, really frustrating when you pick up and no one talks.

I received a call this evening at 8:15 PM, and when I picked up, there was a silence for about three seconds before the line went dead. It’s absolutely infuriating to answer the phone only to be met with silence!

Rang me up but then just cut the line as soon as I picked up.

Got a ring from this number, bloke with an east Asian accent. I told him I couldn’t catch what he was saying and then he just dropped the call.

Got a call from a lady with an Indian or Sri Lankan accent earlier - she claimed it was about an accident I supposedly had, which I definitely haven't. Since I'm registered with TPS, I thought I'd try and get some details out of her but she just ended the call when she figured I wasn't involved in any accident. Looks like phone chats with Asian girls ain’t really my strong point! :(

It sounded like one of those auto-dialler calls from a call centre, noone on the other line when I answered. Ive had calls from the Accident Helpline loads of times before, so wouldnt shock me if it was them once again.

I was on the phone with them for nearly half an hour explaining I wasn’t hurt and wouldn’t be making any claim. Eventually, they said I should just say I had lower back pain so their Doctor could provide a certificate. When I said I couldn’t do that as I didn’t have any pain, they told me to just pretend so I could get money for a new car or a holiday. When I said that was dishonest, they insisted it wasn’t lying, just pretending! Honestly, what a scandal!

Got a call from that number too, and I could hear what sounded like announcements from a train station in the background. The person on the phone just dropped the call after a short time. I reckon it’s someone from that Accident Help Line, maybe annoyed because we always tell them right away we're not into buying whatever they're selling!

I've only had my new phone set up for five days and made sure it's ex-directory. I'm puzzled as to how anyone managed to obtain my number.

Got a call from 0894623188 earlier today but when I picked up, nobody said anything. Probably some kind of phone scam.

They kept ringing me up four times today. I answered each time with a ‘hello’ but then just ignored them completely. Hopefully, they get the hint that bothering people isn’t on!

I dunno what was up with that call. After a quick pause of about 3 seconds, I started hearing some noise in the background and then they just cut off.

I got a call from someone with an Indian accent who was asking for my bank details and my PIN! Seriously, you need to warn everyone about these scammers!

Got a call from a guy with an Indian accent, asking about a crash I'd supposedly been in. I asked him two times how he found my number, but then he just ended the call. Strange.

Got a call today from someone with an Indian accent saying it was about my car accident or something like that. I told them if they called this number again I’d make sure they get in an accident instead! They were just dialling at random, had no clue who I was or any details. So annoying!

Someone rang earlier today but nobody spoke when I picked up, so I just hung up like I normally do... Honestly, this world’s full of folks who need to find a REAL job instead of this rubbish.

I answered the call, and there was nothing but silence for a good five seconds before the line just cut off completely.

There was nothing but complete silence for like 3 or 4 seconds. Felt like some shady spam call that's either dangerous or meant to bother you.

Answered the call, heard nothing for around five seconds, then it just cut off.

Just gave them a ring but no reply, so after seeing all these reviews I've decided to block the number now :-)

I received an unexpected call from Accident Line, which was rather annoying since I was expecting a return call.

I've been getting loads of calls that show up as from overseas, and since I've got family living abroad, like my sister and son, I usually pick up. Most of the time, there's no reply when I answer, so I just hang up. A lot of these calls come through in the evening and they can be really annoying. I'm registered with the TPS as well, but I guess if the calls are coming from foreign numbers, the TPS might not block them? I ended up using 1471 to check the number because I was so fed up and wanted to find out if there's a way to block these calls.

I’m also unlisted, but when I see an 08xx number come up, I never pick up the phone. It rang for ages-honestly, what a bother! It might have prevented a legitimate caller from getting through. Who waits twenty rings for someone to answer anyway? Such a pain!

How on earth did they manage to track down my ex-directory number? It's absolutely baffling! The Telephone Preference Service is completely ineffectual!

Got this call a couple times now, both claiming its about some accident (no idea what accident?!). Hard to understand them cus their accent is super strong. Number's not one i know and quite obviously not from the UK. Im on TPS too, so seems like theyre just dialing randomly. Probably gonna trick some poor elderly person eventually if they keep at it.
