Perhaps you should also notify HMRC?

We get those calls over here, and out taxation people (CRA) want to know about them, especially when you can get the phone number.

Better than "ignore".

As well as caller display (BT phone line) our home phone has a 'block' facility. After receiving an unwanted call where the number is not withheld I simply put the number to a blocked list. Thus no more calls from that number ever get through.

We've Had had repeated "Metal Minnie" calls from this number using the name Heather Gray telling me to call back to avoid legal action over the last couple of days.
It's a time-waster or scam so just ignore.
