How to Report Spam Phone Calls?

Im on t-mobile pay as you go and have been receiving several calls (from an anon number) for 3 days that were all silent until they eventually spoke up today trying to sell me a phone package.

The line wasnt very clear but it went along the lines of

spam man= Hi I see your on t mobile and would like to sell you a call  package.

me= oh I see Who are you and how did you get my number?

spam man= ...  i am from t mobile/ or I want sell a tmobile package (the line wasnt very clear)

me= Who do you represent etc? Im really not interested please make sure you do not call me again! ( I really was that polite!)

Spam man = ... Get Lost! Get Lost! *click*

ok so I checked the t mobile website for a number to call and I can find nothing to report this kind of call too

What can I do to stop this happening more to me or anyone else?
This is a very private line and I have not given the number out and really dont appreciate being told to get lost by an annoying w****r  :-/

    I guess you should get onto Customer Services at T-mobile - perhaps they can help out.

    If calls get abusive and incessant tell the cops.

    (p.s. call quality was probably bad cos it was coming from India or the Phillipines or..)
    (p.p.s. silence after you answer can be cos these guys maybe call half a dozen different nbrs from a numerical list at a time to try and get a hit from any of them)
    My website has lots of info and photos from various Greek and Canary Islands esp. about walking. My profile has the site address cos not allowed to put it here.
  • Hi,

    Can you tell me if the number that called you was 0121 3335060? I am also a T-Mobile pay as you go customer and for the last couple of months I keep getting silent calls from this number. As that roughly ties in with when I registered on their website I wondered if it were connected?

    In the meantime I have registered my mobile phone number on the Telephone Preference Service website.

    Lets hope that we can sort this out!!!!!!!!!!

    call 150 or make a written complaint (but prob not much help if you dont know the name of the company) but def make a complaint whatever you do, some companies get away with too much
