This number does seem to originate from company Populus Market Research. Their web site is www.populus.co.uk. A reverse DNS search resolves to static IP address 82.71.204.11 - Their Internet Service Provider is Zen Internet Ltd, Sandbrook Park, Sandbrook Way, Rochdale, Telephone: 44 1706 902 000. You should complain to their ISP that they are a pest and conducting business not in keeping with the regulatory authorites. Zen Internet Ltd is unlikey to be happy being associated with a company that breaks or ignores regulatory authority guildlines on accepted conduct.
BRK replied 2014-07-08 15:43:14according to the person who just called me they are a research company not sales so they are exempt form the Telephone Preference Service.... I aasked them to put a note against my number preventing further random calls.Wilhelm replied 2014-08-16 12:24:1616.8., Sat morning I got a call from a lady, Claire, at this number, asking to conduct a survey. I told her my number was on TPS, and asked her to remove it instantly from their list. These might not be illegal, but are most definitely NUISANCE calls that must be blocked.Chris replied 2014-10-31 14:32:26Why do I bother to be on the TPS when some companies are exempt, I thought I had signed up for me not getting nuisance callscuddly dave replied 2015-06-28 12:51:44Simple - I get so many marketing calls that I never answer immediately. All calls to me go direct to my answerphone, which has the speaker turned on so that I can hear who is calling. If I know them and want to talk I pick up the phone. If not, I ignore the call. Simple! -
I missed a call to my Rep. of Ireland mobile, so whoever this crowd are, they must now be annoying the general public on an international scale.

I AM BLOODY SICK OF THIS ARSEHOLES PHONING ME FROM THIS NUMBER AND AN EARLIER NUMBER 0151032405000 GET RID OFF THESE PISSHOLES FOR GOOD
-
This company have been ringing me for years. Every time they ring, I ask them to remove me from their database. Sometimes the people ringing are polite, sometimes downright abusive when I ask this. But they NEVER, EVER have removed my number from their database. That makes them a total nuisance in my books, no matter what the TPS says.
marty replied 2016-06-18 17:34:43Tps is a voluntary scheme. If they are not a member they don't have to follow their code of conduct -
I was called at 7.20pm Just dishing up supper. He said that they were conducting a survey in my area, would I have time to take part in a survey. I said no and hung up

Have a had a few weeks of no pain the backside calls. They are now on the prowl again!!

Two silent calls so far one at 1445 hrs & one at 2035 hrs. Ringing the number takes you to a recorded message which says You were called by Populus Data Solutions an Independent Market Research Company....

This number calling and I don't answer ANY calls till my answer machine turn ON, so if they introduce themselves I will take it, otherwise no. This is keep going on with this number, so please BLOCK this number.
-
Someone called from this number for the first time while I was out. the only way to deal with these ****** ******* is to be really offensively rude to them. THEN THEY DONT PASS YOUR NUMBER ON. If you tell them to do something despicable to a dead pig they wont call you again. Consequently I get very few of these. DONT BE POLITE TO THEM.
-
Did their survey, took about 5 mins. Hopefully won't hear from them again. Most of the questions seemed to be about gambling habits.
-
Random digits dialing.

Just in case "YOU" want to ask a question! -
Populus may be claiming they are a market research company, but they are carrying out research on behalf of a client stupid enough to pay them.
They are not exempt from the TPS as claimed, do not believe anything they say to you, they will not remove your number from their records. -
Got a call from this 0345 number. I never usually answer but was expecting a call from my bank, so unfortunately did. They got short shrift! Harassment on a Sunday afternoon! Telepests!

I received a call from this unknown number I checked it out on the internet and decided I had no wish to waste time answering any future calls from these people When, it eventually happened that the number called again, I pressed the 'answer button; on my mobile and just put the phone down - out of hand I left it like this for a few minutes and when I checked - no one on the other end! I guess they got fed up of talking to themselves! Works every time - they soon stop making future calls Try it
-
Is this real?!
They called me at 20:33 tonight.
Calling people at night?!
What do they f think?!
-
hang up on answering.
-
Survey request from speaker in heavy accented English (possibly Scaninavian.
Very polite when I declined to participate. -
I asked to be removed from their calling list and was told "I can't sorry thanks bye"
-
Continuously telephoning my home number, a bloody nuisance.
-
Survey company. Once they realise you answer your phone, they sell on your number to other companies that bombard you with spam texts. DO NOT ANSWER.
-
This company wish to run a survey, so saying they do not need to register TPS numbers.
Call 0191 265 0525 to request that they do not call again.
Do not take the shit given - tell them you will take legal action if they call again - they will try and say that it will take 3 days before no further calls.carly replied 2015-12-16 22:13:57i phoned the0191 265 0525 and it was an aswering machine saying ths is a test number. -
Survey about 'matters that affect us all'
-
Told by lady caller that they are exempt from TPS. What's the point of being registered?
-
CONSTANTLY harassed by these B#%stards! KEEP CALLING DESPITE U.S. REQUESTING WERE TAKEN OFF THEIR ILLEGALLY USED & obtained data base! We're ex directory & TPS registered.How many times do we & others have to report these scum?!
-
Constantly call me at regular intervals DESPITE EVERY time requesting were taken OFF their illegally obtained & used data base-(Were EX directory & TPS registered!) that fact makes me wonder about legitimacy of company,as KEEP going against our polite requests! And so persistent in recalling! What are their TRUE motives?
-
-
nuisance call on a TPS registered number. I told them I get paid for surveys and asked how much they pay. He said they don't pay, I hung up.
actually they DO Pay, you can register to do online surveys with them. So NEVER answer a survey for free! -
Populus are still making unwanted calls to ex-dir, TPS registered numbers.
Caller hung up before I had the chance to request my number be removed from their records. -
We're ex directory & never have or will do ANY type of business on the phone! We're also TPS registered but they are toothless in these matters! ALL WRONG-harassed at tea time.Have reported these before! Asked them politely to take us OFF their data base & their STILL calling
-
They are a research company!! Asking for opinions on the election etc... They are not pests, very polite and there is no need to be rude, they aren't selling!
Jimminick replied 2015-08-29 16:51:33But they are pests because they keep ringing me at the weekend which is the only free time I get to spend with my family. How do you think they would like it if I began continually pestering them during there free time...I'm sure they wouldn't like it either!!!!Marktd replied 2015-11-19 16:10:40yeah but if you complete the survey then they automatically mark you as agreeing to a callback from companies that will try to sell to you .
it's how they get around the TPS rulesMarty replied 2016-06-18 17:38:30Tps don't have rules they are a scheme which they have to pay to join and this company are not members so haven't agreeed to follow their code of conduct. -
have blocked this number 4 times now and yet they keep getting through. Have never answered them cos I know they are the survey crowd.
