Missed call from Manchester Confidential?

Hiya, just wondering if anyone can help. I had a missed call this morning from 0161 832 2880. When I google it, it comes up with lots of links to Manchester Confidential.

Anyone had a call from them before? or any ideas what it may be?

They haven't phoned back:(

Thanks in advance

molly

  • I have had a few calls from them, trying to flog a Meals Out Saver Card.

    Hope you are luckier than I was.

    I got a call off them about a fortnight ago which I missed. I rang back and they asked if I had 15 mins to talk to them which I didnt as I was at work but asked if they could call the next day.

    They did call back a couple of days later, but it turns out that they only wanted to ask me if I was interested in getting a cheap deal at a restaurant etc and wanted to buy a yearly discount card :o

    I was very honest and told them that I entered competitions on Manchester Confidential to WIN a meal or a night out because I couldnt really afford to treat myself to one, so there was no point trying to sell me anything.

    I really hope you have won a prize but in my case I hadnt.

  • i had a missed call a few weeks ago, left message after message for the lady to call me back...she never did! Had another missed call this week and this time spoke to a man it was about the restaurant saver card that id received. I asked him about the missed call a few weeks ago and he said it was probably a win and when they got no answer apparantly they ring someone else. I said this was very unfair as i rang about half an hour after, he said its just what they do. Anyway good luck hope its a win ;)
