Receiving dozens of calls a day from the same number can feel like a relentless nuisance. Most complainants describe the pattern as short rings followed by an immediate hang‑up, a classic silent or nuisance call technique used to waste minutes and potentially generate charge‑back fees. The calls often claim to be from retailers like Mr Price, but the script quickly turns into a hard sell or a vague “family emergency” ploy. To protect yourself, add the number to your block list, report it to your carrier, and consider a call‑filtering app that flags repeated short‑duration rings. If a reverse‑charge is suspected, avoid answering altogether and let it go to voicemail.
This number contacts me 5 to 6 times daily.
Kept getting rings from this line with silence on pickup. I blocked it, man.
This number rings every hour and then disconnects. Super irritating.
Some telemarketer pushing stuff.
The contact 0318159000 rings me roughly seven times daily—don't they notice I'm ignoring it, or are they just dense?

Lesi yinkampani yokqoqwa amatshela. Blake and Associates
It's Blake & Associates dealing in debt collection and marketing. They ring me six times daily. I contacted them via another line and got an apology... they mentioned an issue with their auto-dialer!!!

Ngithola izingcingo kule nomboro futhi uma ngimukela bayayibeka phansi. Ziyacasula
This number rings me every day, even multiple times sometimes. Right after I greet with 'hello', they disconnect. Whether you pause for 2 or 10 seconds before speaking, they still drop off once you say 'hello'. Man, it's getting old.
Rings me ten times daily, but the line cuts off every time I pick up.
Got several unanswered attempts from this line today, but they disconnect right as I reach for the phone.
Super annoying ring, dude.

Dude hangs up the second I say hello.
Bahlala beshayela bese bevalela lapho ngipendula.. Ngizongena le nombolo ohlwini oluvinjiwe.
Umthengisi ocasulayo kakhulu, ozama ukuthengisa izinto eziningi ze-Sh....... futhi uma ubatshela ukuthi awunayo isithakazelo, abafuni ukwamukela 'Cha', njengoba abakucindezeli ukuthi ubeke ucingo endlebeni yabo.
