Thunderbirds reported unknown with the number 08451297936 as Harassment calls
I do wish this could be stopped.
People do not care about what they are doing to other people's lives it causes a lot of grief and un pleasantness to them.
If you ask them not to keep calling you then they should respect there request to do so.
Please please please show some human respect.Jim replied 4/1/15, 7:13 PMHi Thunderbirds. As we have a General Farce - sorry, Election - coming up, I suggest that if you're doorstepped by candidates, ask them what they personally intend to do about nuisance callers, whether their party gets into power or not. I'm looking forward to doing this if we get any canvassers, because it's a question I think they won't expect, so we won't get prepared waffle.Robert Morrell replied 4/1/15, 8:08 PMHear! Hear! Concur with this, there are too many annoying phone calls from India and the Philippines and they ring at supper time when we are having a meal. This has to be stopped, now. If I want to order double-glazing, etc I will call the company or order online. Companies need to use their bloody brains. If you don't want their "services", they have to f*** off! As for the Government, they are all mealy-mouthed liars, won't vote for the Tories as they kiss the arses of the snobby rich so will probably go for Labour. -

BB West Midlands reported Guy called Charles with the number +448451297936 as Telemarketer
0845 number answered Indian sounding guy called Charles not the first time he has called. He mentioned I was getting nuisance calls I asked him where he had the information from he would not answer we are on TPS after receiving aggressive and rude calls of the same nature, thinking I may go ex-directory.

Caller asked me also to confirm if I was receiving a high volume of telemarketing calls, and that he could help. Fealing un easy I said call me back in 5 mins after I could check him out. Found this thread immediately blocked the number on my Pro Call Blocker box i found on ebay for £25.

BillwithCallerDisplay reported Do Not Call with the number 08451297936 as Cost trap
Subcontinental-sounding told me I needed a box to stop nuisance calls - two pounds fifty a month for three years!
Caller Display does it much cheaper and I don't usually answer calls from 0845- numbers. Curious this time. -
Lynxcat reported unknown with the number 08451297936 as Telemarketer
Seeing the number on my phone list I look it up on the PC and see all the complaints so I immediately bar the call using the BT Call Guardian (on their latest phones). This means a lot of the scammers will leave their number and you can bar them and also let TPS know of annoying callers.

The Flying Jelly Bean reported number +448451297936 as None Given
Answered the phone to this number at 17:43pm 08/05/2015.
The caller was a woman with an Indian accent, who upon me answering the phone, asked for my partner by name without identifying herself or saying who she was calling on behalf.
When I told the caller that my partner was not at home, they hung up straight away without saying another word.
Very Untrustworthy in my opinion. -
MSANON reported NATIONAL DO NOT CALL REGISTRY with the number 08451297936 as Telemarketer

Investigator Mandy reported National Do Not Call Register with the number 08451297936 as Cost trap
"Rita" told me she was based in Bournemouth and calling everyone in my area to help stop nuisance calls. I asked her if she understood the word "irony". She went very quiet but then carried on trying to sell me her silly fake service

Dave reported unknown with the number 08451297936 as Harassment calls
Just had a call from Kathleen offering to stop unwanted calls, including those from the Indian subcontinent - which was a bit rich since her accent sounded somewhat Indian subcontinent to me! I said I didn't mind unwanted calls since a simple 'F--- Off' was usually enough to terminate them.

Briony reported National Do Not Call Register with the number 08451297936 as Cost trap
Received a call from an Indian sounding man called 'Daniel' claiming to be from the National Do Not Call Register, who are apparently providing a government backed scheme to everyone in our postcode, to stop "nuisance calls for example from India". Offered me a device to block all nuisance calls for a one-off payment of £89. How ironic that this was clearly a nuisance call/scam from India of they type they are claiming to stop.
*NB - this scam is mentioned by the genuine 'do not call registry' here: www.donotcall.gov -
stoptelepests reported unknown with the number +448451297936 as Telemarketer
called by this number and he told me that I had been receiving a lot of nuisance calls. he wanted to sell me a product to stop this. he gave me the number 08451297936,which is the same number on my caller ID, numbers can be spoofed. rang the number, delayed in case they were still on line, and it did not ring but played music straight away. he gave his name which by a huge coincidence is the same as mine(Irish name) and I asked if he was in India, he confirmed he was born in India. said he was in Bournemouth, after he told me my postcode and I asked for his, he hung up.
went on utube for a speaker test above 2Khz, anything higher is a really nasty high pitch (it WILL hurt your ears!) didn't have enough time to use it though, next time I have it bookmarked -
tra reported number +448451297936 as unknown
Indian guy asking for my sister in law. I politely told him she's not in. Called from a number in the states. 2085973982. I hung up, seconds later he rung again asking for her- this time from the 08451297936 number!!! Wtf! I didn't like it second time and wouldn't play nice. He was very rude.

Anonymous reported 'The call barring service' with the number +448451297936 as Telemarketer
Indian caller pretending that his name was 'Nigel' and that he was from 'The call barring service'. Knew surname of account holder and a partially correct address for the property (i.e. they'd got the address from an address database, and not from us). Started a spiel about nuisance calls and how they want to get everyone onto the 'new' government service - at which point I hung up on the shyster.

Investigator Robert Morrell reported Do Not Call Register with the number 08451297936 as Cost trap
I got this call from a Wilson who said that they could prevent nuisance calls coming through to my number using a special box you plug into the back of the phone and they said it would cost £1.99 a month for 3 years! I told the Indian advisor that I'm registered with the TPS already when I signed up for BT. This chap put me through to his supervisor who wanted card details so that he could charge me a one-off fee for £89! I then hung up saying that I don't want to go ahead with it. FOLKS, DO NOT FALL FOR THIS, THIS IS A RUDDY SCAM! I was sensible in not carrying on with this call and they said that they are based in Bournemouth - what a load of crap! I will be letting folk I know on Facebook about this, suggest anyone who has social media report this too.

Brian reported Do Not Call Register with the number 08451297936 as Telemarketer
Indian gentleman called saying his name was 'James' (course it is) asking me if I was getting a lot of tele-marketing calls (he missed my reply of 'like this one'). Wanted to sell me a call blocker for £1.99 per month for 3 years and would transfer me to his supervisor. Asked him where he was based and he said "Born the mouth in England" (of course you are). I pointed out that:-
1 - this was a sales call
2 - we were already registered with the TPS
3 - we already have a call blocker.
4 - their sales technique stank.
There was a stunned silence followed by some spluttering. The number is now blocked. -
BELLA reported unknown with the number 08451297936 as Cost trap

DJS reported unknown with the number +448451297936 as Cost trap
Had a call from "a call-barring TPS" service supported by the government. I'd recently registered with TPS & I was taken in. I'm usually very suspicious over phone yet was drawn into registering...and then came the giveaway! Give details of my card to secure payment of £1.90 a month for 3 years & they would send me a device to block all nuisance calls within 3 days by registered post. "Michelle" gave valid info including their registered address in Bournemouth & the company registration number. I refused to give any card details & was asked to call customer services to verify the call - 0845 1297936 - & she would phone me back in 15 minutes. The number rang a bell (!) so I googled it & found out it was part of a scam. Ive been reporting lots of nuisance calls with Telephone Preference Service recently so unfortunately I was taken in initially. Please be careful people!!!

No we're not selling anything. .... and for 1.90 per month we'll send a box to screen all calls. .... and we're backed by the government to stop unwanted calls ... Which government dept? The government dept to stop unwanted calls ......" Sam eventually hung up on me when I kept pushing for which department. Sam quoted this number but 1471 said he was calling from 0017166899717

IndianCallCentreDetester reported Indian Charles with the number +448451297936 as Telemarketer
A very Indian sounding Charles, allegedly from Wales, called saying he was from a government agency and he will send me a call blocker for nuisance calls. Wanted £1 something a month. Beware they are a fraud. Provided 0845 129 7936 number to call. I think NOT!!!

Skel reported unknown with the number 08451297936 as Cost trap
Called my wife today. Indian gentleman called Rick. Same spiel as previously reported. Why doesn't BT put these people off-line. BT must be aware of this scam but choose to ignore it as they make money out of the scammers calls. Get your finger out BT!!

Paul the woodturner reported unknown with the number +448451297936 as Cost trap
Yes, they are still operating and looks like they are having a New Year hunt for more people to con, as several friends have had calls from them over the past few days. I take great delight in stringing them along for as long as possible, listening to them get more and more frustrated as I keep asking questions about 'their blocking box'. I know only too well that this is a scam so have no intention of accepting anything from them. To date the longest I have managed to keep one of these scum on the phone is 37mins, during which I managed to cook my evening meal. You can imagine the comments he made when I eventually told him what I had done to him. So, if you can afford the time, string them along - while they are talking to you, they aren't phoning someone else!

Jimbo reported Call Prevention Service with the number 08451297936 as Cost trap
Just received a call from an Indian sounding chap called 'Charles'. Asked me to confirm if I was receiving a high volume of telemarketing calls, and that he could help. Gave me the 0845 number, and told me to call for a box to plug in to the phone for £1 something per month. I asked him to hold on for a moment, muted the call, put it on speaker and just left the phone on the desk while I carried on with my work. It keeps me amused to hear the caller say "hello?" every so often. At this point I take the phone off mute, I reply "sorry - won't be long", mute the call again and see how long before they give up...
He hung up when I said I wasn't interested.
