02030043198

I just got a call from some bloke saying that he was not selling anything etc, which immediately caused my suspicious nature to kick in. He claimed he was able to offer a consolidation of credit card debts etc through a  government scheme. Unless they are going to bail me out with a £100 billion deal then I am not interested ;) I told him, truthfully, that I work for the government, and he hung up.

lots of silent calls, very annoying.

Same thing as everyone else - calling with office noise in background, then no one speaking, although last week they were trying to conduct 'a survey'.  Just a note about the TPS - registering with them works, but only for UK call centres, who are not allowed to call people on their register, BUT this does not apply to overseas callers.

5 calls in the space of sunday morning - 3 of which were in 1 hr!! Asked if they would mind coming and wiping my telephone for me as they seemed to be sending a lot of s*** down the wire..No calls today so fingers crossed they may have got the hint...if that fails does anyone have an address for them to send the contents of my cat's litter tray???

Just googled the other number (the 02030043199 number) and found the following. Doesn't really show how to stop them but looks like a couple of corrupt dodgy, stealing, got nothing better to do with their lives other than sell and buy confidential information b@^%£*(ds are behind all this.

However, 2 minutes later I also found the registered address - in Leicester!!

Does anyone live in Leicester and could do the British telephone using public a favour??!!

Name & Registered Office:
CITY CREDIT MANAGEMENT LIMITED
THE OLD SCHOOL
346 LOUGHBOROUGH ROAD
LEICESTER
LEICESTERSHIRE LE4 5PJ
Company No. 04191591

However - if you type in the company number this address is given..
6TH FLOOR THE WHITE HOUSE,
111 NEW STREET,
BIRMINGHAM,
B2 4EU

Surely though if they're a British based company, then British laws should apply ie Harrassment, Data Protection etc???

I have some information if this helps a friend of mine who works for a telecom tracker (not in UK) had located this number in to Cairo, Alexandria Egypt a company marketing surveys agents.

I also get calls from this number so I also did some looking up.
If I am not right they ring 10,000 number at once using a software program over the internet when 9000 have answered it picks 100 and then 1 person. That might give the answer to why they don't talk. On the other hand I am looking into something at the moment in which this could be an ID scam I will repost later on any updates regarding that issue

I have been called now 6 times by this number.  I called the FSA having challenged the caller and was told that there is a money manager uk  who are linked to a principal company Personal Finance ...be warned this is not the same company.  Incidentally, when this company calls, they advise they are offering a Goverment-backed scheme (an IVA)and when challenged they disconnet the call. IVAs are not Goverment backed they are just not illegal!

[***] woke my baby at 20:00

Asian sounding man. When I tried to get details about who the hell was calling me at 8.30pm he declined to answer any questions and was rude.

My small son just picked up a call from this number, and it was definately heavy breathing, which really freaked him out. Is there anyway of finding out who it is?

This indian bloke phoned twice in two days and i spoke to him today. All i got out off him his name is Robinson and said he was from Golbal but didnt catch the rest because off his accent. He said something about ashort survey and first ask to speak to a family member and i said there not in and he goes on about i beleive you to be a family memeber. I was getting so annoyed i just said you ring here again  im calling the police. But i rang back to get the number it said we do not have the callers number. I said to him this is hasslement.Is there anything i can do to stop these numbers i with BT.

Asian male rang at 1pm today sat 20/10 asking to speak to my sister who is not on this number. he has since rung three times approx 20 minutes apart. He refused to state the nature of his business or the company he was ringing from. This is not the first time that I have been pestered by calls of this type which I find discourteous,rude and distressing.

had 2 calls from this number so far today one at 3pm a second at 3:25pm

Asian voice at the end

I am ex-directory and wonder how they got my number. Assume it was a a survey question

I just connected to BT broadband (well in August) I now get calls from this number through the day on the broadband phone that came with the service.

Bt just don't want to know. Is there any way to stop this?

just had several calls from this no, but still not managed to speak to anyone
as everyone else has said very annoying

This No- 02030043198 Had phone today, they say that we would like to help. If you have any debt problems they can sort them out for you.?
What I say is.... Dumptys...... Get a real job......

Both my wife and myself have been having these calls over the last six months or so. They say they are from some government agency, not selling anything, but require some info. The calls come 2 or 3 times a day some days and it's gets really annoying to say the least.

They ask for a lady (l****ie f****ck) who has never even lived here, this is a new build and we only moved in 12 months ago.

Having phoned B.T. they really don't seem to be that interested..... but when you really push the issue they offer to give you a new phone number which is
not possible due to broadband, personal, family etc.

The best way I now find, is when they phone, say this "oh i'm glad you called can you give me your name and postcode" they get confused and disconnect the call.......excellent

2 calls from this number this morning, I answered the 2nd one, a strongly accented Indian sounding woman asked for my flatmate by name. I told her there was nobody by that name here and she apologised and hung up. I'm sure they'll ring again

Have been getting calls from this number over the last 2 or 3 weeks! Have been ignoring the calls as don't know the number! They finally called me when in a show rehearsal which made me look like a bit of a d*ck so decided to google to find out who to moan at! Bloody annoying idiots!
