Keep getting 0161 calls everyday

[lotti37]

Hello I keep getting 0161 calls everyday I block the calls and then I get a different 0161 calling. They never leave a message . I tried to call one back to see who it was and then it was quiet, another number it was not possible to connect the call really odd and annoying . Anyone had this . One of the numbers was 01613543759. I rang it from my landline it was quiet and then 2
Minutes later they rang my house phone and I didn’t answer Thank you

Just block them all. We get them all the time..they have various numbers. If you type the number into google they will show as nuisance calls.

FORgot to add this is on my mobile number

I get these, and if I manage to answer sometimes it just hangs and says there is no one to take my call. 😡it wasn’t my bloody call, you called me dimwit!
I tend to bung them in whocalledme online to see what it is. My blocked spam list grows daily.

Yep, I've been getting loads recently. I just press ignore. Sometimes block the number. I suspect it is a PPI cold caller preying on people in the run up to Christmas.

Just type into google "who called me", then put the number in. It might say who it is or there will be comments from people saying it is a scam.

Me too. Usually 0161 814 xxxx. I ignore them, and add them to spam.

NB the first few months worth showed up on whocalledme but the recent ones don't.

Think I will just keep blocking and ignore calls thank you

If I have a number like that I never answer then copy it straight into Google and 9 times out of 10 it's a spam number.

I heard these people have ways of changing their number while still operating from the same place. It's frustrating but block each time and it eventually gets less.

I think these are from Manchester call centres. From recent memory, which is crap, I totally lost my shit with yet another call and demanded to speak to someone who did tell me to call the Telephone Preference Centre, that just because I blocked him it didn't mean it would work for other similar callers etc. He was sympathetic and helpful. I trust he is no longer working there.

Definitely an old batch of data has just been bought and shared - I’ve probably had double, maybe triple the calls I used to have, and of the ones I’ve answered they’ve asked for a name I haven’t used in over a decade. At least I know immediately I can put the phone down.

They seem to go through phases . No phone calls for a few weeks then phone calls everyday . Really annoying x
