02088618682

Said it was on behalf of British Army  ?

I have received a number of calls on my mobile from 00 0442088618682. Never a message. Irritating, especially on a Sunday evening. So I searched the number online, found "spot on"s advice from 2008, ie call
"Ben Page
Managing Director, Public Affairs and Chairman, Social Research Institute,
Ipsos MORI

Mobile +447917 603 356
Office +44(0)207 347 3242

leave your details, you will be removed from list :)"

So I dialed the mobile just now, a Sunday evening, and to my absolute amazement Ben Page picked up. A brief, very polite, conversation followed and he offered to remove my number from the database.

It's a market research company called Ipsos MORI - god knows who they are, but I have told them in no uncertain words to stop calling me.   If they call back I'll update.

http://www.ipsos-mori.com/ is their website.

Ipsos Mori are one of the biggest Market Research companies in the UK.  I did a survey at home in July and they contacted me a couple of weeks ago, by 'phone, to see if I would take part in a further survey, which would last for a month.  I have foundt the people I have dealt with have been friendly and polite. If you e-mail them via their website and ask to be removed from ALL their data bases, I would think that you will have no more problems.

just had a call of them asked about internet usage. When they asked about my job i said i was a professional they said they had spoken to enough and hung up on me.. god i must be boring if they hang up on me!! try that if they ring

I got a missed call today and I thought I will just check google and see what the area code is. Imagine my surprise to see there is a whole site just on this number. Cheeky buggers. I will not be answering that's for sure.

SIX calls from this number this weekend! I didn't answer any of them as I don't know the number but they didn't bother to leave a voicemail.

Thanks Mark, if they call I will just tell them I am a professional LOL

They are crooks, they say they find you randomly but they send me all sorts of different questionnaires

F***ers know... they even have a link on web site!

02088618682 is a MORI number in this case on behalf of BUPA.
I would not give them any details or even confirm that I am a member of BUPA
and BUPA should not be giving my number to any third party.
You would not expect your NHS Doctor/Consultant to do so !!!!!!

Maybe BUPA should be treated the the same as all other insurance companies.

With contempt !

actually thats complete nonsense, the student survey is genuine - you can look it up via google. happens every year.

This lot are driving me me mad! They've called my mobile 3 times to-day! last call 7pm! I could cheerfully choke them! Some sort of market research, but where do they get our number's from? Next time I will answer & just leave on hold.  %$"&* cheek & invasion of privacy!

I had a home visit and they asked me about newspapers and such things at the end i got £25. Not complaining.

just called my number at 19.32pm when i answered nobody spoke. bloody nuisance

If the daft old bat can't cope with a phone disconnect it. Ipsos Mori aren't psychic !
*yawns* as for the rest of you saddos why not just complete the survey and then they'll go away! Get a life!

I completed the survey with a chap who called to my home.  However he promised me that there would be NO telephone calls.  Get call display, and if you do not recognise the number, do answer it, these guys do not leave any messages.  Hopefully they will soon get fed up.

No idea why this co call me....I would never buy from a cold caller!!
