This is green energy calling from a marketing firm called ant marketing. I rang and told them to delete my number or I'll be taking this further as it's harassment
Called several times and when asked who they were the female voice said she was from Jacamo and wanted to speak to my partner. Jacamo deny any knowledge of the call or the marketing company in question.
got a call from this number during lunch time. no answer when picked up.
This number keeps phoning at all times. Sometime they speak, other times they do not. Have found two freephone numbers for this company (Ant Marketing) so others may wish to phone them, the cost is bourne by the company. Numbers are 08009533555 and 08000737300. Happy days.....
Call today from this number purporting to be British Gas about their loft/wall insulation scheme. Number dead when called back.
This number rang me today, but I couldn't answer - so it went to my message box. They left the line open for ages (and I could hear office talking in the background) but they didn't leave any message. They're a pain in the arse.
several calls, no message left, nuisance - never answered any!
Had several calls from this number,after reading comments here I didn't answer the call
Have phoned me up 4 times in the last 2 hours today! Been phoning all week. No message left. Pain in the backside!
Calls without leaving a message. Calling back claims it's for "Ant Marketing" on behalf of a client without any suggestion of who.
They have phoned 4 times in the last 2 days, no message left. Apparently it may be ANT MARKETING of Sheffield, I have emailed them complaining, let's see if they answer the email
Rings me up several times a day and there is noone at the other end
Calls several times a day, never leaves a message. After reading comments here have now barred the number.
they telephone several times a day - and when I finally gave in and picked up, they claimed they had dialled the wrong number - I asked what number they had dialled and they gave me my local code followed by a nonsense number, and claimed they were calling family!! I too am ex-directory and listed with tps.
Called me today. didn't answer and they put it down shortly. Strange
Phoned 3 times yesterday, very rude to my autistic son. My number is ex directory yet it seems to be legal to by phone numbers on the world market.
This number called me at 9.30pm when i was in bed. No meesge left on voicemail. Whoever it was just hung up.
I missed two calls from this number and no voicemail left.
They call at least three times a day, and ask for my brother who is deaf and does not use the phone. When I point this out and ask if I can take a message, they are quite rude. Yes we have TPS but this does not seem to catch this number as they call from different numbers in Sheffield area..
Do what I do. I call Ant Marketing and try selling them anything. I usually get the dictionary out and pick a word by flicking pages and then stopping at randon. Let's say S for Shovel. I then call them on their Freephone number and talk to accounts, HR, whoever I can get hold of in my lunchbreak and try to keep them on the phone as long as possible. Its free too if you call 08000 737 300. Its very childish I know, but then who cares??!! If we all did it, they'd soon change their tactics. Don't forget to dial 141 so they can't call you back.
They are terrorizing Germany as well!
Just called the number back and selected option 1 to stop the calls from Ant MArketing (very miserable voicemail by the way) to be told that the mail box is full and cannot take any more messages! Great!
Ring me everyday. I answered once and they said it was regarding my phone contract, I said I was at work and not to call but they still do. How can I stop them ringing me please?
Ant Marketing - annoying persistent idiots. He asked for my husband I said he wasn't here, who's calling. He said he couldn't tell me! I asked for the company name, he said due to data protection he couldn't call me. So I told him that was bo**ox and said that Due to data protection, he should not be calling a private number, registered with Telephone Preference Service or he could get charged £5,000. He made his excuses and left...but will it be the last we hear of them? Probably not!
they call me sevarll times a day waking my baby as well and when anwer no one there or they dont bother talking the compay is ant marketing wonder if it stands for ant brians marketing ther free phone number 08000 737 300
Rung to say it's about renewing my Oracle Magazine subscription, trying to ask my birth place (which I gave an arbitrary one) and then my colleagues names / job titles etc that I refused. Very dodgy.
I've been getting a call a day from this number, usually when I'm on my lunchbreak (without the 'phone which I leave on my desk) - so I guess about 1.00 p.m. Very annoying, but glad to know I'm not alone and that it's not anyone important trying to get to me urgently. Certainly won't bother to pick up now! And yes, I'm also on TPS!
Number rings most days on my mobile - never any message left. Also rings on business line most days, again no messages left. Did answer once and sales pitch started so hung up!
left one complaint - still receiving calls
had calls yesterday from 0161 3800227 and today from 01143072406 - no one there
Number calls often. Ant marketing. If you call the number back, although you should not have to, there is an option (1) to stop them calling again.
Appear to be Ant Marketing phoning and will disconnect before I get to the phone. Ofcom appear to know about them but have taken no action.
Called me on my mobile. How they got that number I have no idea - I'm unlisted ex directory with TPS etc etc. They hung up immediately I answered.
This number called me today asked for the MD by name, who was out, I asked who they were and didn't answer but started asking how many cars our business had, if they were bought or leased, and how long the leases were. When I had answered their questions they just put the phone down. So I 1471'd their number and found this! Wish we had a display phone so I can ignore in the future!
loads of calls, always during the day, clogs up answerphone with backgorund chat, never leaves a direct message, obviously ignores the fact we are with TPS
I have been having this number on a daily basis over the past 2 weeks. I have a display phone so I do not answer, still a pain all the same. I am also registered with Tps
This number called , ostensibly for my husband, regarding his 'interest' in their lingerie range, as he had'registered on their website'. Having googled the number and read your complaints log, i feel pretty certain I've been scammed. It was clearly a tactic likely to engage any inquisitive wife in conversation. Either that or my husband is a) cross dressing or b) lavishing gifts on his mistress...hmmmm
This number rings my mobile every day around 1pm (U.K.) Guessed it was a scam (of sorts) due to its consistency and the fact that no answerphone messages are ever left.
I receive about 2 calls a week from this number, they claim to be Microscope magazine and are calling 'just to confirm my address'. I tell them each time to take me off the list and that I don't want the (free) magazine any more. It's no help - the mag keeps arriving and so do the calls. I'm not sure whether to go into screaming abuse mode or to play the "lets see how long I can keep this idiot on the line" game.
I've just had a call from this number about renewing my subscription to Motor Trader magazine. Seems to be a general call centre for subscriton renewels?
A good handfull of silent cals over the last few days fro this one?
This one called and and put the phone down when I answered, called again and denied hanging up. Was trying to sell staff training!
This number has called me three times in the past week, I answered first time and was told it had something to do with a lingerie company, but was at work so had to cut the phone call short. Since then have had two missed calls during the daytime. Find it unusual to be gettin courtesy calls to mobile phone???
Marketing call to our number which is on TPS list. Call was silent for some seconds before somebody came on the line. Could be misunderstood as a "silent call". Company name is Ant Marketing UK. Head Office in Sheffield: 08000 737 300 or 0114 278 0555.
Not a complaint, but unless I have just been scammed, it is The Spectator Magazine looking to renew a subscription. For information, they offered a great price!
This caller has been ringing me approx four times a day for the past week.....and leaving no message. Not sure who it is?!
get home from work and every day there's at least one call from this number - four today. usually no messgae, but if there is it's just a couple of minutes of background coversation.
This number rings every day and hangs up as soon as I answer. I am registered with TPS also.
Hangs up as soon it is answer. Had calls from this number 3 times this week already.
Unsolicited automated call, even though I'm TPS registered
This number rings regularly but hangs up when I answer or only rings once. Absolute pest.
