Based on the user comments, it appears that the caller is a persistent and aggressive telemarketer, likely representing an insurance company. The fact that multiple users reported receiving calls shortly after using price comparison websites, particularly Compare the Market, suggests that the caller may be using these websites to obtain potential customers' contact information. The calls often result in the caller hanging up immediately after the recipient answers, which may be an attempt to verify the recipient's phone number. Some users also reported receiving multiple calls from similar numbers, indicating a potential call centre operation. Overall, the caller's behaviour is considered invasive and disruptive.
Daily calls from this number and others like (07523 271987, 07523 271985, etc.) have been persistent since I explored insurance quotes on Compare the Market. I had no idea that merely checking my options would lead to such harassment.

Received a call just 10 minutes after using Compare the Market.
Following my use of Compare the Market, I received a call from Howden Insurance the very next day.
Upon checking the caller ID, I found this number had attempted to contact my mobile; however, I didn't pick up and subsequently blocked it.
As soon as I picked up, they hung up. I called back and was directed immediately to "Sean's" voicemail; this number may have been hijacked, and the owner is likely unaware their number is being misused, I have blocked it.
I didn't answer and have blocked this number. It's unfamiliar to me, and based on other comments, it seems like a suspicious caller, likely spam.
On 24/2/24, I received a call from this number, during which they used a resident's name to initiate the conversation, but hung up after being transferred - it seems we inadvertently confirmed some information
i am being bombarded with this number, its spam, I ignore it, I even told them my number is TPS registred
This number has called three times this week and hangs up each time it's answered. It seems to be from a call centre using an auto-dialler.
The caller hung up without saying a word when I answered.
