Late afternoon in the midst of a busy day, unwanted calls like this one can disrupt everything. Persistent ringing from unfamiliar numbers, especially when they evade blocks by switching lines, points to a nuisance caller or potential harassment tactic. Under UK privacy laws such as GDPR, you're entitled to opt out from unsolicited marketing, but if it's non-commercial harassment, it might fall under the Protection from Harassment Act—worth reporting to authorities. Practical steps include registering with the Telephone Preference Service to reduce cold calls, documenting every incident with dates and times for evidence, and forwarding details to Action Fraud if it escalates. Blocking helps short-term, but persistence suggests a coordinated effort; don't engage or share personal info, as it could worsen things. Stay vigilant to safeguard your peace.
For over six months this firm has been ringing twice daily, even in the evenings. I block one number and they pop up from another – can’t shake them, definitely needs a GDPR report, mate.
Unfamiliar with this number.
The call got cut off straight away – no clue what they wanted. Cheers!
