SYLVIA F reported unknown with the number +441234945006 as Telemarketer
Foreign female voice said she was calling from Nationwide and someone at my telephone number had had an accident in the last 3 years. No-one has! Actually sounded like a recorded message as there was no response to comments I made! Belong to the TPS and getting really fed up with calls of this type.
David replied 10/9/14, 5:47 PMThe TPS data bank is where it's been admitted by guilty parties, these nuisance callers get our phone numbers from. (The TPS is financed by the direct marketing agency). People registered with the TPS get more nuisance calls than those who aren't.Mark replied 10/24/14, 12:09 PMTo David - I disagree. Since registering with TPS the number of nuisance calls I receive has dropped markedly. It takes a few months to work and it won't stop them all but it certainly works. It won't stop callers from abroad who don't care about UK laws and it won't stop those willing to break the rules and risk the consequences but I estimate it's way more than halved the number of calls I get.David replied 10/24/14, 12:51 PMMark - You might disagree but it is well documented that numbers AND NAMES on the TPS list are sold off to unscrupulous marketers (who openly admit it's where they get our numbers from). I've been TPS registered for over 10 years and wish I'd never bothered - The TPS are a toothless organisation with absolutely no powers of enforcement. Read this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telephone_Preference_Service
from which I quote (and confirm from personal experience) "a 2013 survey by Which? found that people registered on the TPS list received twice as many marketing calls as those not on the list"
You might not have been registered long enough to have been put on another dubious list "people who don't expect to receive marketing calls". I don't blame the TPS for this they can't control who sells off numbers on their list.John replied 10/24/14, 1:58 PMTo David -- 'they can't control who sells off numbers on their list'. I'm afraid that sounds like an excellent reason for not bothering to register with TPS. Adding insult to injury.Fred replied 10/27/14, 12:27 PMWhatever Wikipedia says - and it's not necessarily the most reliable source of information - I found marketing calls to our landline dropped dramatically once we registered and have not increased since. I've recently had an increase in marketing calls to my mobile, so I registered that as well - the calls have stopped completely. -

A tiresome waste of time which clearly could alarm or distress those who are deceived by the suggestion of an accident involving someone in the house.

If a scam call is received and there is a voice I inform them that I am the Duty Desk Sergeant at the "*****" Police Station and thatI have to Log the Call so require the Caller's Number. They ALWAYS disconnect. Seems to be effective as the number of scam calls seems to be lessening.

victim of scum2 reported unknown with the number +441234945006 as Cost trap
Add to my previous report. Oct 28, call from alleged 01234-945006. I rang that number, recorded, well-spoken male voice told me"sorry there is a fault on this number. Please call 118820 and operator will...an alternative number, calls are charged at BQ (or DQ rate)119 which is £2.53 per call plus £.01 per minute" Then came the killed...same male voice resumes, louder "Calls to 118820 are free to all mumblemumble customers"> I listened six times to try to learn what the words which I represent as mumblemumble are. Could not be sure--no doubt it is a deliberate nonpronunciation whose sole aim is to deceive. I REPEAT MY PREVIOUS QUERY---WHEN WILL COULODNT-CARE-LESS OFCOM DO REPEAT DO SOMETHING ABOUT THESE RIP-OFF CALLS?????????

victim of scum reported unknown with the number 01234945006 as Cost trap
call at 6.40 pm from 01234945006
english voice said she was so-and-so from blur blur. i was fool enough to call that number back. male voice said some problem, i shd call number etc etc costing £2.73 per minute.
WHEN WILL THE LAYABOUTS AT OFCOM DO REPEAT DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS SORT OF CALL??? UNLESS OFCOM IS TOTALLY IDLE--QUITE POSSIBLE--IT MUST KNOW THE NUMBERS CONCERNED, BUT WHAT DOES IT DO TO STOP THEM?? NOTHING, PRECISELY NOTHING. taxpayers pay for Ofcom to sit on its hands -
JMC reported unknown with the number +441234945006 as Aggressive advertising
We've been hassled twice this week by these 'ambulance chasers' using a Bedford telephone number (which they don't even bother to withhold!) We've told them we're registered with the Telephone Preference Service and they've reassured us we will be removed from their list...we shall see!!!

John reported unknown with the number 01234945006 as Telemarketer
The usual idiot asking if someone at my address had had a car accident. These bloody ambulance chasers just case everyone's car insurance premiums to rise due to their false claims for whiplash etc. I thought the government were clamping down on these scammers.
Unusual to leave a phone number though, surely the authorities should be able to trace them. Are these individuals working from home on their own phone, if you ring back its always engaged, presumably they are wasting someone elses time.Grumpy replied 10/24/14, 10:45 PMYou'll find it's an internet call using a 'fake' UK dialling code, and certainly not made from anywhere near Bedford! I was surprised when I set up my VOIP telephone that I could choose ANY UK area code I wanted with no comeback at all. It's dirt cheap for them to use and the computer just autodials the next number on the list. It really is time the authorities found a way to block these objectionable timewasters. -
Plugtop reported number 01234945006 as unknown
Just received a call from 01234 945006. Automated service of recorded female voice saying that they understand that a person from this number has had a accident in the last two years. When I didnt say yes, but I know all about this scam the line went dead.

Ben Ortury reported unknown with the number +441234945006 as Telemarketer
It's quite easy to negate these types of calls by getting yourself a Call Line Identity phone. If the call doesn't display the name of someone in your tel address book, or shows number withheld, or out of area, or International let the answer machine do the work. You can then block the number or use phone settings to set your preferences - problem solved...

Lady. called saying that she had information that I had had a car accident in the last 2 years and may be able to claim for compensation. Asked where she had obtained this information and she replied that it came from an Insurance database. When I told her that her information was incorrect, she hung-up

DaveW reported UK Advice Bureau with the number +441234945006 as Telemarketer
Call from these people "UK Advice Bureau" IIRC saying someone had a car accident in the last two years.
Goodbye!
About time something real was done about these people. All of them.Goff. replied 10/23/14, 5:05 PMSadly, it's not illegal. And they are only doing their job. Pity some people have no scruples about pestering people. THAT ought to be illegal, but until we get a far right government in, where people gehung drawn and quarered for spitting the street we just have to put up with it and play them at their own game. Just say 'no' to everything (EV-erything) they say). LIE !!! if necessary. Take Control !! -
Investigator Paul from Essex reported Nationwide Trust Bureau. with the number +441234945006 as Telemarketer
American sounding woman called me saying she was from Nationwide Trust Bureau. She said someone at this address had a car accident in the past 2 years. (I haven't.) So i asked her what address was that. She repeated her line, do i repeated mine. She hung up.
Richard replied 10/13/14, 11:34 AMI've just had the same. I started to get cross and she said she would remove my number from their lists. I wonder?.

rsm reported number 01234945006 as unknown
I recently purchased the BT8500 phone, this unwanted number is now blocked and the phone never rings, they are told to hang up instead. I can still tell they have tried 4 times though. In fact no call centres get through because they have to give their name and press # before the phone rings, I don't think they use phones they have keyboards and screens so can't do it.

Bobby reported Nationwide Trust Bureau with the number +441234945006 as Telemarketer
Two calls received within 24 hours from male with Indian/Asian accent and female with American accent. Both told me that they had information that showed that I had had a no fault accident within the last 2 years. They were obviously reading from a script, refused to tell me where they had got my name, phone number or the accident information from. I told them what I thought of them and they hung up ! Will report it to TPS and ico.org.uk

Claire reported Nationwide with the number 01234945006 as Telemarketer
This company have called me 2 or 3 times a week for the last 12 weeks asking if I've had an accident (I haven't). I'm now starting to feel this behaviour is threatening. I am on TPS and they have repeatedly promised I am no longer on their call list but they still call.
David replied 10/1/14, 2:21 PMSo why Claire do you give this Company a VERY TRUSTWORTHY rating? Incidentally the TPS data list is where it's been admitted many of these nuisance callers get our phone numbers from. (The TPS is financed by the direct marketing agency). People registered with the TPS get more nuisance calls than those who aren't. -

The told me they had details of road traffic accident from the police Road Traffic Accident report. And that they were the nationwide trust, I asked for the details of how they got the information as it was breach of data protection act and they had committed a criminal act. They hung up.

Had previous calls about a proported car accident before from different numbers. I will log the number with TPS so it gets know more widely as one to block/ignore.
Goff. replied 10/23/14, 5:07 PMDon't bother. TPS are toothless, have little powers and can't be bothered to deal with silly phone calls. Chocolate Fireguard ! -
maria reported unknown with the number 01234945006 as Telemarketer
Just had a second call (maybe 2 months apart)from the 'Nationwide Trust Bureau', a guy with a foreign accent saying that according to their records I had had a minor accident in the last 2-3 years and wanted me to confirm that. I denied it both times. When I denied it he tried to insist that it must be somebody else at my address. I put the phone down.

no joker reported number +441234945006 as unknown
usual asian accented guy calling about car accident containing two people from this address.
I said yes they both died.
This put him off his line for a sec so I told him I didn't need any help as I had shot and killed the other driver and as now on parole.
effing idiot then asked what gun I had used!!
Told him as I was a special forces policeman!! I used my hand gun.
No kind of drivel seems to put these types off.
Funny how we can put bombs down a chimney 1000's of miles away but cannot stop these scammers.
