Chinese Spam calls?

  • Oh dear I thought that the TPS was a bit more than that!!! I know companies can get fined if they call someone on TPS, but if you don't know who the company is it's not much good.

    Alan - yup I'm on PlusNet, although it was Life mobile before that if that makes a difference. Sounds very suspicious though and seems to be common with people on PlusNet. I wonder what's going on!!!


    Tadley - is your number the same with your new provider or did you get a new one?


    The calls seem to have stopped for the time being (I was getting them daily before) but I guess they could start up again. Hopefully not!!! I think the most frustrating part is not knowing what they're saying. Makes me want to learn Chinese just so I can understand what they're saying and tell them to f*** off!!! :D

    Set it as a spammer on your phone.
  • Can't set it as a spammer cos it's always a different number. Thought they might have left me alone but alas got another call today :(

    Star, if your mobile doesn't have inbuilt call blocking, you could try installing Mr Mobile (which I think has some inbuilt numbers to refuse) or CPR call blocker. The latter allows you to block all calls from a country and I think they have a version for mobiles now. Good luck Humdinger1

    I have had at least 5 of these calls since the beginning of the month! Very annoying, different number each time. I do a 'who called me' check each time and the number doesn't appear in any databases.
