Getting Prank calls on my mobile phone

supersaver09

Not sure if anyone else is getting these - but i keep getting prank calls on my mobile from this number 0161 969 4455. (Not even smart enough to hide their number. )

If this number flashes up on your phone, reject the call immediately.
(The caller(s) sounds like Teenagers pi55ing about).

So annoying.......and how the hell did they get my mobile number! (I never give this number out).

They could have dialled in error, just because you don't give your number out, does not mean it is un-dialable from anybody

I actually spoke to them & it's definitely a prank call.
They've called about 5 times today.

Well, next time they call they'll be getting a ear'ole full of Drum & Bass.

They will only find it fun while they know it's annoying you, over a time they will get bored and stop :beer:

Yeah true.

That, or when they get a 400 quid phone bill from BT.

I would keep a high volume sound player close by and play an annoyingly loud sound directly into the phone when they next call.

Saying that, why waste your time and energy on it, just block the number - report it to your network.

I use a program called Magicall on my WM phone to filter unwanted calls and sms's, or to deal with calls when you can't (or don't want to) answer - excellent program. There is probably something similar for othr smartphones

Tried that, but Orange said they couldn't do much about it. (Rolls eyes)

BTW, whatever happened to the Rolls Eyes smiley?

TBH, i think they'll get fed up soon - as i now know when it's them that are calling and i just don't answer it. (Can't see that being much fun for them ).
