I used to never receive calls like these on my phone. This extra service was provided free of charge. However, that was before the National Asset was privatized. Another added benefit... *rolls eyes*

Oh dear me! I received a call from this number today, and it's becoming quite a frequent occurrence since I retired. I'm constantly bombarded by 3 - 5 annoying calls from various numbers. To combat this nuisance, I've devised a strategy. When I answer the phone, I use a peculiar voice and stretch out my "h-e-l-l-o" for a long time. Surprisingly, it's been quite effective as they usually hang up right away. This saves me from wasting time engaging with them in a sensible conversation. Interestingly enough, my cousin also experiences the same persistent calls on a daily basis. It's truly bothersome! I suspect that some of these annoying calls originate from call centres operating in time zones several hours ahead of UK time. That would explain why we receive these pestering calls while we're still fast asleep in our beds! Luckily, on one occasion, they actually apologized for waking us up. How utterly astonishing!

I received a telephone call earlier today. In response to my greeting of "Hello," an automated voice promptly bid farewell and ended the call.

Our company is officially registered with the Telephone Preference service, and we strongly object to receiving calls from your company. Moreover, we find it utterly unacceptable that your representatives would resort to abusive tactics, questioning whether or not we had ended the call abruptly.

I recently decided to redirect my elderly mother's phone to my mobile because she has been continuously bothered by these scoundrels. Since then, my phone has been ringing incessantly with calls from this number and others like it. Alongside a constant stream of junk mail, it seems high time that the government takes action to ban these practices that specifically target older people.

Why is it so difficult to track and hold these people accountable for their fraudulent actions?

I received a call from an Indian lady whose accent was difficult to understand. She struggled to pronounce my name correctly and informed me that she was conducting a survey. I explained that I was pressed for time and about to leave, but she insisted that the survey would only take a few minutes. I politely declined again, expressing apologies for my prior commitments. However, she continued to plead with me. As my patience wore thin, I finally said, "I am wearing my coat and preparing to leave, so please understand that I cannot participate in your survey." At that point, she mumbled something and abruptly ended the call. It is frustrating how even when we decline these retail surveys, companies still persist in contacting us. My brother experienced this as well; after declining numerous surveys, he was bombarded with persistent cold calls for months thereafter.

Inquiring about individuals who do not reside in my dwelling

My elderly mother, who is 80 years old, has been tormented by frequent phone calls of this nature on a daily basis. Despite generally being unable to answer the phone in time, she vehemently refuses to provide any personal information during the rare instances she does manage. She has expressed her intention to report this telephone number to the police.

A man from India called and specifically requested to speak with my late mother, calling her by her name. However, he abruptly ended the call when I inquired about Hargreaves Associates.

Today, we received a call from someone who identified themselves as a representative of a company called Hargreaves Associates. However, when we inquired about the nature of their business (being a claims company ourselves), they simply stated that they could assist us in obtaining a refund. As soon as we pressed for more details regarding how this would be accomplished and what the refund would be for, they abruptly ended the call.

I received a phone call earlier today. When I picked up the phone, there was no response from the other end. I used the 1471 service to retrieve the incoming number, but I have no intention of dialing it back. If they need to reach me, they can try calling again. I have no desire to return their call.

I have received multiple calls from this particular number, and when I'm unable to answer, I suspect that it may be a relative from America. To confirm, I used the 1471 feature and then dialed 3 to call back, but I never received a response. This situation has left me feeling concerned, and I would like to determine if it's a scam. Could you please advise me on how to block this number? Thank you in advance!

Over the past few days, my 84-year-old father has been receiving multiple phone calls from this company. The concerning part is that whenever he answers the phone, there is no response and the call immediately ends. It is causing a great deal of worry for him. I find it particularly troubling because my father is ex-directory, so I'm wondering how these individuals are able to obtain his number in the first place.

These individuals are fraudsters!

They said they were from BT and explained that they would be shutting down my computer due to hacking incidents.
