Got a dodgy call off some bloke from Leicester claiming I'd won £2500 PPI. Asked for my bank info, and when I said no, he just told me to get lost with some proper nasty language. Total scammer!

Got a call from someone claiming they could offer cheaper phone rates than BT. I told them my current bills are actually lower than their prices, and they didn’t seem too happy about that before hanging up on me.

This number, 002726888540, keeps ringing me up every single day. It's always people with English names but who sound Asian, asking for just two minutes to do some survey. I've told them before that my number’s on the telephone preference service list, but they just don't seem to care. Honestly, they're such a pain!

You can’t tell who’s really calling as scammers use gadgets to fake the number so they don’t reveal where they’re really calling from.

Got a call from someone with an Asian accent who claimed his name was Sandy and insisted he was from Ofcom - obviously not! When he asked for me, I just told him he couldn’t speak to me and then he hung up straight away.

I got a call from some young lass, looked like she was just starting out and nervously gave her name (can’t recall what it was, I was too busy asking ‘what’s the point?’). She claimed she could help me cut costs on my phone bill, but kept getting all flustered when I kept pressing her with ‘why’s that then?’ She sighed loads and sounded really annoyed before she just hung up on me. If she tries again, I might tell her it was all a test and she didn’t pass! Honestly, she’d do better finding a proper job! Hopefully she hasn’t locked herself in the bathroom feeling sorry for herself or something! Ha!

a young lass, seemed fresh to the job, gave her name but i didnt catch it - was too busy going “what now?” she was trying to convince me she could lower my phone bill, but when i kept grilling her with “why?” she got all flustered and kept sighing like she wanted to scream. then she just hung up. if she calls again, i’ll say it was just a drill and she flopped! seriously, find a real job! haha, hope she’s not in the loo feeling sorry for herself!

Got a call from this number at about 8:13 am today. Some Asian lady was asking for me by name. I didn't say anything back, just ended the call straight away. These calls are really irritating and I don’t want them at all. What’s the point of the caller preference list if it doesn’t block these? How do you actually make them stop?

Got a call from someone with an Asian accent. The connection was really poor. They wanted to speak to the person who pays the bills, but that person wasn't around. After I told them, they just apologised and hung up.

Over the past few days, I’ve had a couple of calls from numbers I didn’t recognise, but I didn’t pick up. Most calls I get on my landline now are from folks with clearly Asian accents pretending to have really common English names like “John” or “Steve.” They usually try to sell useless services for my laptop or mobile. I was thinking of returning the call today because the number was unfamiliar, but I decided to look it up first. Good thing I did, as it seems like it could be a premium rate line. These calls are getting worse and are such a nuisance.

Got a call from an Asian lady with a Japanese accent talking about some business phone thing. I told her just to take me off their list. Then they started with some silly whistle-down-the-line nonsense and after that, the phone got cut off on my end for a bit. Proper annoying.

Got a call from some bloke claiming to be from BT, said they got my number from their database. When I asked where exactly, he just kept repeating the same line. Told him to stop ringing me early on weekends. He insisted it was their first time calling, but it's actually the 8th time over Saturdays and Sundays. Said I'd be reporting and blocking the number through BT.

I keep gettin calls from this number but as soon as I pick up, they hang up straight away. I guess it could be because it’s a business line.
