This bloke with an Asian accent rang me up saying I'd been chosen out of the blue by the UK government to get a one-time grant of £8000, which supposedly doesn't need repaying. When I told him I wasn’t buying it, he snapped at me, asking why I was wasting his time! I told him actually he's the one wasting mine. I've now blocked the number thanks to the help from TalkTalk's service.

Got a call from a young Asian bloke saying I’d been given £8000 for home repairs. Definitely a scam, don’t fall for it!

They told me I was eligible for an £8000 grant or something like that.

Got a call off some Asian bloke sayin he’d give me £8000. I joked about givin him my bank info and had a laugh, then he turns around and says my grammar’s rubbish! Mate, yours ain’t much better if you ask me.

I absolutely relish it when these numpties ring me up. I reckon it’s only fair to serve them an earful right back, even if it involves a fair bit of colourful language. I’m sure the universe has a way of sorting things out!

This number rings us loads, but no one ever says anything when we answer. Instead, it just ends with some weird electronic 'bye'. It's really annoying and feels like a total waste of time!!!

Got a call from a bloke with an Asian accent claiming it was about some government scheme. When I said I was busy, he cheekily asked, "too busy getting laid?" I wasn’t sure I heard right so asked him to say it again and guess what, he repeated it. That was the moment I just cut the call.

I got a call from someone saying they were from the London Government Grants Department offering £3,000, but they just ended the call before I could ask any questions. Quite frustrating!

I just had a rather peculiar phone call from this number, purporting to be from the British Government’s Grants office. The chap on the line, who introduced himself as David, insisted I had been selected for a generous grant of £8000, which I supposedly wouldn’t need to repay. Now, considering the international dialling code and the unmistakably Indian accent (which I happen to have myself!), I found his story to be a bit hard to swallow. Quite fishy if you ask me!

I received a rather odd call from a gentleman with an Indian accent, claiming that the government would be handing me £8000. Naturally, I ended the conversation rather swiftly. However, he had the audacity to ring me again, leaving a voicemail where he incessantly repeated, "Are you daft?" I found myself seething with rage; how dare he speak to me in such a condescending manner? I'm tempted to return the call, but I'm aware that it could end up costing me an arm and a leg.

I've also had a call from this number but chose not to pick up. After looking into the dialing code, it turns out it’s a Belgian number! Honestly, I'm utterly tired of these pesky scam calls. To all the con artists out there: why not find a proper job instead of harassing innocent people and wasting our precious time? Just stop it already!

I've encountered a rather bothersome predicament with this particular number, quite akin to what ANNOYED has experienced. They were exceedingly rude, persistently ringing me up just to hurl profanities my way, shouting things like "F*** you!" and more. The chap claimed he was representing the government, of all things. Blocking these calls has proven to be quite the challenge for me. Is there anyone who might have some helpful tips on how to deal with this nuisance? Cheers!

Just like everyone else has mentioned, someone rang me claiming to be from a government grant office. I told them I wasn’t convinced and that didn’t go down well at all - started shouting and swearing horribly! I ended the call but they kept ringing back, about three or four times, just to carry on abusing me. Loads of “F*** yous” and all sorts. The number looked like it was from Belgium, but blocking them doesn’t seem to work and the calls are getting more frequent. I’m on the TPS, but still get tons of calls from Pakistan too. Proper annoying!

On the 24th of February, 2016, I received a rather peculiar phone call from this number. A lady named "Clara" - her accent unmistakably Indian - insisted she was representing the "British Government Grants Department." Apparently, I was meant to have been awarded a generous grant of £8,000, although I couldn't fathom the reason behind it! She urged me to ring 0203 289 5855 and provide a reference number: BT707. Not a chance I'm falling for that one!

On the 24th of February, 2016, I received a rather peculiar phone call from this number. A lady named "Clara" claimed to be representing the "Grants Department of the British Government". She went on to inform me that I’d been granted a sum of £8000, although I was completely baffled as to the reason behind this windfall! She instructed me to ring 0203 289 5855 and mention reference number BT707. Not a chance in the world!

I received a rather dodgy call from this number, where a chap claimed that the government had chosen my phone number for an £8000 prize. Thankfully, I had already encountered similar scam alerts online, so I responded with a rather sceptical “Oh really? Do jog on, you scam artist!” and promptly ended the call. Immediately after, I added the number to my call-blocking feature, effectively severing the connection. To my astonishment, a voicemail was left, full of profanities, calling me a fool and other choice words! Charming fellow, indeed! I took the liberty of searching the number on the BT phone directory, and the first four digits suggest it hails from Belgium; however, the rest of the digits are utterly nonsensical and bear no association with any actual town or mobile service in Belgium. It does beg the question, doesn't it? Why on earth would a governmental body be making calls from overseas? Quite the conundrum!

I received a rather dodgy call from someone claiming I was due compensation from the UK “federal” Government. Naturally, I was perplexed and inquired about the identity of this so-called UK Federal Government. Instead of a proper answer, the bloke resorted to a barrage of expletives aimed at me. Quite the numpty, honestly!

Rang them in the afternoon and got nothing but silence when I picked up.

They just keep ringing, and if I pick up, I hang up straight away.

They kept hanging up on me without saying a word, like multiple times throughout the day.

On the 5th of February, 2016, I received a call from the number 003202389001078. The caller claimed to represent a London-based company and insisted that I was set to receive an extraordinary £8000 from the Treasury - a one-off payment, no less! They provided me with various disbursement options: a visit to the post office, a bank giro, or direct bank transfer. I opted for the post office, at which point they supplied me with an ID number and instructed me to call 02032896160 within the next thirty minutes, threatening that I would forfeit the £8000 if I didn’t comply. However, I decided to look up the numbers beforehand and, surprise, surprise - turns out they’re linked to a scam!

Received a rather dodgy call claiming that we were among 1,500 lucky recipients selected by the UK Government for an £8,000 grant. Sounded very much like a call centre from Asia. Quite suspicious, I’d say!

I received a call from an Asian call centre purporting that my name had been selected, along with 1,500 others in the UK, to receive an £8,000 grant courtesy of the government. Honestly, I didn’t stick around to hear the rest-it was quite evident this was nothing more than a scam.

I've had no response from that number at all! My two lads are out and about, and I'm quite worried it might be one of them in a spot of bother.
