Blocked but still ringing

User reported 0161 240 0018 as Harassing

It’s calls me non stop throughout the day and is blocking up my answer machine with static noise. I have never been a customer of this so called news group and when I have called the number back it is dead. They have called unsocial hours such as 7.00 in the morning to 9.00 at night. In one day I received 13 phone calls and when answered it’s a voice message. They phone every day harassing me.

Been receiving calls from this number since 5 March 2026, often up to 4 a day, even though I've never answered and the number is blocked on my phone. Prior to that date, had calls from 0161 240 0017, which is presumably the same people.

This number calls a few times daily, and has done for a month. I don’t pick up, but it is annoying to say the least

i don't answer these calls but unfortunately that is no deterrent. I can't remember when they first started - although it was probably late February - all I can say with certainty is that between 21st March and 27th April I've been called 46 times. Hopefully they'll give up soon.

Calls three times a day - robot. Never leaves a message. Cretins!

User reported 0161 240 0018 as Harassing

Has repeatedly called me 2 to 3 times a day. My phone blocks the calls. SPAM written all over it.

User reported 0161 240 0018 as Harassing

Calling many times a day

This is the outgoing line (hence doesn't accept incoming calls) for NewsTeam, who deliver newspapers etc. across the UK; they are aware that it is being flagged as spam and are trying to sort it out. Called me as an ex-customer to offer a new deal if I wanted it and were fine when I said no. If you're getting nuisance calls from their number, their office number is online via Google.

Ringing repeatedly. I do not answer.

User reported 0161 240 0018 as Harassing

We get this number 4 times a day.

User reported 0161 240 0018 as Harassing

Very suspicious. This number calls repeatedly and when answered the caller waits a few moments before ending the call. When one attempts to call the number it is constantly engaged. It is quite clear that this call pertains to some eventual scam; perhaps, the call is to record one’s voice.

User reported 0161 240 0018 as Harassing

I get about 4 calls a day
