I have missed calls on my answerphone from this number. My strategy for dealing with cold callers is (a) registering with TPS - waste of time as TPS is a toothless quango unable to protect the general public from nuisance calls but by registering at least I have done what I am supposed to do (b) I report the callers to TPS and the Information Commissioner and hope that something is done to slap them back but I have no confidence that anything will happen (c) find out the number calling me, find out the company calling me, visit company house, and get all their contact details then I trawl around the internet (if I have nothing else to do e.g. during an evening when the telly is dull and I am feeling evil) and I register these details with every online spammer I can find e.g. yes, rush me details of your day-glo mustard-flavoured sex toys etc and dearly hope that call centre staff will spend many hours every day taking calls from other call centres trying to force their products on them (d) the shorter version of my cunning revenge strategy is to take the call and then pretend to be working in a call centre too and begin to mess with their minds: Cold Caller: Hello I am from blah-blah Me: No, I am from Blah-Blah! Them: Ehhhh... Me: Do you have credit card debts? Have you ever considered life insurance for your house plants? Let me make your day! I have this great idea how you can become a millionaire overnight etc. When they ask for details, turn the conversation around and demand their details because you are doing them a favour. It's like Jehovah Witnesses or Mormons (they don't call much these days but when they did I used to invite them in and then tell them all about my religious beliefs involving pyramids, aliens, polar bears, horse radishes etc They used to fight to get out and I never had return calls from them. Fight fire with fire, I say and give yourself a laugh at their expense. Of course that is fine only if I have nothing else to do but when these scum call me in the middle of the night or call me on days I am waiting for important telephone calls I could wish them in Hell. And no doubt there is a special place in Hell for such people although not as deep as the people who murder children so let's keep this in perspective.

Had a call last night missed so rang the number and a recorded message said this number is unused and is for sale. I hung up. With the advances today WHY? is it not possible to stop these turds getting
through to private phones ,mine is ex-directory too.

Must be a record! three calls in an hour! sick of these calls, leave me alone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just had a call from this number offering a PPI refund. I am ex-directory and registered with TPS.

My mum had a call from them today - as she said refund (without the PPI bit) mum shouted "con" down the phone and slammed it down. What with this & the computer bug calls my 79 year old mother is very popular. Luckily she finds it very funny & tries to mess with their minds lol.

24/05/2012 3.22pm South African accent female claiming to be from Talk Talk.  Told her I was dead.
Call ended.

my home number is only available to 5 people and they keep ringing me asking for some bloke i've never heard of. funny i keep ringing them back randomly now and not saying anything, think i've had about 7 different people answer the phone so far - i will continue to pi$$ them off as they do me!

My husband answered the phone from this number.  It was a foreign woman saying he had a refund to come.  He strung her along and asked how much was he owed.  She asked how long he had a certain credit card but he wouldn't tell her then she asked to speak to me, his wife.  He hung up.  We have now had several calls re: refunds.

Silent call

i want you to come and live in my rainy day cupboard you sound  SSSOOO much fun....thanks for the most EXCELLENT post had them twice today but #sigh# the ans machine picked them up

Month after month every hour or so throughout the day they call without fail, nothing seems to dissuade their constant bombardment of ill pronounced names on usually the currently popular PFI claim offers or whatever else they are squeezing the pennies out of, I suspect they could only be stopped with death or a disconnected phone line.

Silent call 20JUN12 at 17h58

Call from an Indian guy advising they are holding money for mr as a refund against an old credit card.  I listened for a while then advised I was recording the conversation, at which point the guy said "goodbye"!! Obtained their phone number via 1471 and called back but didn't even get a ringing tone.

I got a call from a very similar number, 0706030603887, wanting me to claim for missold PPI. His PPI expert colleague is supposed to be phoning me back tomorrow. Only details he wanted were confirmation of what he already knew - my address & age range, plus the name of the bank - but without asking for bank details. His accent sounded slightly south african.

got a call this afternoon asking to speak to someone i had never heard off.When i told her that she must have misdilled the wrong area code,she then tried to get me to talk about PPI i told her that i have never borrowed,loaned or gave money to anyone,i then hung up.My late friends mother has been getting this same garbage for 2 or more years & is now afraid to answer the phone,hence my hostility

another call today now getting bored with it all

Who is this number?

damn nuisance call again. no message but thankfully found this strand so will ignore all calls in future

Caller with foreign accent.  Wanted to talk to Mr Baldwin about getting him a refund on his credit card.  I told him we are registered with the Telephone Preference Service and he can be fined for cold calling us.  He said "er OK " and hung up.

Number called my mobile.  Gent (?) with Indian subcontinent accent "Could I speak to Mr Keith xxxx xxxx please" (including middle name, unusual).  "That's Me".  "I'm calling from Fist Call Solutions, how are you today?", "If your call is about PPI reclaim, can I remind you that this phone is registered with Mobile Preference services, and your call is illegal.  Do you wish to continue?"...  Click .... Buzzz.

Got one yesterday at home and to keep him talking asked "Why, when this has been around for about 5 years, and I get 3 or 4 calls a week, should I choose your firm over any other selling the same service".  Whilst this was happening walked out to the garage.  When he started to answer, held the phone agaianst my air horn and let it off.

I'm so fed up with these idioits.  By asking if I am entitled they are already assuming me to be an idiot as otherwise I wouldn't have signed up to PPI without checking if it is any use (I have always removed this from any finance agreement) and because if I was entitled to claim I would have done so years ago.
