A concise, standalone report based on current publicly available listings suggests the UK number +441613624062 is a geographic UK number from the Manchester area. Several community based boards flag similar looking numbers for harassment or telemarketing, so caution is advised when handling unsolicited calls to this line. 1. Ownership or type: The number appears to be a geographic landline (UK 0161 area) rather than a mobile or premium rate number, suggesting a business, organisation, or residential line registered in the Manchester area. However, specific ownership is not reliably identifiable from public sources alone. 2. Online commentary: Public forums and scam report aggregators show mixed entries for similar Manchester numbers, with some users reporting aggressive telemarketing or nuisance calls and others reporting benign interactions. The absence of a single verifiable corporate entity tied to the exact number is common in these datasets. 3. Association with unwanted activity: Based on user submitted reports for related Manchester lines, there is potential for nuisance calls or telemarketing, though no definitive, universal verdict applies to this exact number without corroborating, contemporaneous attestations. 4. Public exposure or leakage: The number appears in public facing call tracking and spam report databases, which typically catalog user reported interactions. This pattern suggests exposure in public directories of user generated reports, though not necessarily a confirmed data leak. 5. Advice on answering: Given mixed reports and the prevalence of nuisance activity associated with similar numbers, it is prudent to treat incoming calls from this line with caution and avoid sharing personal information unless the call’s legitimacy is clearly established.

This number must be the biggest phone pest I have ever encountered. Has called me 78 times in ten days. On my blocked list so my phone doesn't ring and I don't know they have called till I check. Worth getting a b.t. Trucall phone like mine. Blocks up to 1000 numbers also can filter out number withheld if u want. Best Buy ever.

On average, I've been getting three calls per day, even though I'm TPS registered. As others have said, they're only short rings, so you'd be hard pressed to answer - it seems they'd love you to ring them back. I've told the fellah I spoke to that he shouldn't be phoning here. Next time, he'll get a proper mouthful of ripe language. Usually, if you simply say "**** off!", and put the phone down instantly, they eventually take the hint. Expect to do it two or three times, though. It's therapeutic, too :-)

This number is now blocked on my mobile but I still get an average 6-7 calls a day from it. The company name that comes up via the truecaller app is Score? never heard of them don't know how they got my number either. Its nothing more than down right harassment and because of the stupid data protection law I cant find out who they really are or where they are, yet they seem to be able to contact anyone at will. Today has been a record four calls in the space of twenty minutes plus three earlier this morning over the course of an hour.

Repeated missed calls from this number. They don't even ring for long enough to pick up, so I presume their aim is for me to call them back, which will obviously cost me £££. Only lunchtime and 6 missed calls so far today.

I called them, provided them all THEIR détails (I work in Internet Frauds and Illegal Activities Investigations) and told if they don't stop that I'd take the stuff to my solicitor. Never heard them anymore.

These people will not take no for an answer. They said my husband had filled in an online form for PPI which he has not and when I said he was not interested they said they would have to talk to him. I told them to go away and they are still calling.
