I've had some experience with this.

At the end of the day, for you to give the cops the onus to actually request the operator for the user's details etc, you have to show there is a likelyhood of a crime being commited.

Fortunately the laws around this make this easier.

However, you will need to establish a trend that they can use when you report them. Record the exact times and dates you are receiving the calls, try call back and see what response you get...if none, text them and ask them to stop harrasing you.

If despite all this you get no response but the calls still keep coming, you should be able to get something to stick when you go upfront. Otherwise, someone can just say they had a bad connection...or they thought it was someone else, and that will be the end of it.

So build a trend that you can use to show, that despite your efforts to get them to stop, they persisted. It also helps build an easier track for the guys to follow. E.g. Where was the call made from at that time etc.
