4 yearsI just left it ringing, didn’t pick up.5 yearsGot a dodgy call from some postcode lottery con artists, trying to fish for my bank info under the guise of awarding me my initial lottery winnings! What a cheeky scam.5 yearsOn the 16th of October at around 7 am, I looked it up and found out it was a scam call.5 yearsAbsolute con artist!5 yearsGot a call from this number earlier, had no clue who it was so I didn’t pick up and they didn’t leave a voicemail either. I checked online for any info and after reading some of the comments, I’ve decided to block it.5 yearsGot a call from a number that looked like it was from the UK, but it was actually a spoof. The person on the other end said they were calling about a postcode lottery, trying to trick me into giving out my bank info and other personal stuff. Really dodgy!UK5 yearsMy phone showed the number as possible spam, so I just ignored the call.5 yearsThey kept ringing me up so I picked up and told them my NIS number was compromised, then said to fix it they'd need my bank details, email, and phone number - I just laughed and said, "You already have it, you just called me on it!" Then they hung up straight away.National Insurance5 yearsReceived a call earlier from someone who purported to be representing an insurance company - didn't quite catch the name they were tossing about. They mentioned conducting a survey regarding insurance matters, but when they started probing about my coverage, I swiftly told him to keep his nose out of it! He promptly ended the call, and I’ve since added the number to my blocked list. Honestly, it seems I find a bit of amusement in engaging with these types of calls just for the sheer thrill of it all!5 yearsGot several calls from this number, so I’ve decided to block it now.5 yearsSomeone rang me claiming to be from the UK Postcode Lottery, telling me my address had won a prize. They even had my old address and maiden name, which made me suspicious straight away. They asked for my email so they could send a link for a discount card supposedly good for Tesco and some restaurants. On top of that, they said I’d won a free travel ticket anywhere in Europe! When I wouldn’t give my bank info, they suddenly turned quite aggressive. Apparently, I couldn't get the discount card unless I set up a direct debit, which felt like a total scam.UKTescoEurope5 yearsThis number keeps ringing me every couple of days, so I’ve gone ahead and blocked it now.5 yearsGot a call around 10:50 on Sunday from a woman with a strange accent who knew my name. Didn’t really want to talk to her, so I’ve blocked the number now.5 yearsI received a rather dubious call today from someone claiming I had struck lucky in the postcode lottery. It was clearly a con, especially when they started asking for my bank details. The moment I probed them about it, they quickly ended the conversation. Just a word of caution-don't share any personal information with these folks!5 yearsdidn't have a clue who was calling so i just blocked the number straight away5 yearsGot a call about winning something from a postcode lottery, but it felt like a total con. Definitely a scam, watch out!5 yearsGot a call from 01138241544, and yup, it's just another scam. Seems like these lot switched to mobiles since calling landlines now gets 'em fined. Honestly, there should be tougher rules or something to stop these scam calls on mobiles. It's getting ridiculous.5 yearsGot a call from 0113 824 1544, just some annoying spammer. Blocked them straight away.5 yearsAbsolute scam, honestly fed up with these dodgy calls trying to con me with stupid numbers! Everyone knows you don’t win free trips from postcode lotteries, yet these muppets keep ringing. If you’re still getting these, just block them and report ’em - they’re clearly breaching GDPR rules!5 yearsBeen getting a bunch of calls lately, all from different numbers and all about some postcode lottery nonsense. It's pretty annoying but I just keep blocking each one as they come in.5 yearsPEOPLE WHO DONT CARE ABOUT DATA PROTECTION LAWS5 yearsGot a weird call from a Leeds number, so I picked up since I used to have a job in that area. The caller said her name was Janet and surprisingly knew my name already. She started asking about the make and age of my washing machine, then wanted to confirm if my postcode was still the same, even quoting an address I used a decade ago. I ended the conversation nicely as it felt odd. I'm not convinced this was any sort of banking scam, as I’m employed in that sector myself. Not sure what they hoped to do with the info though.LeedsJanet5 yearsSome bloke calling from 0113 824 1544 kept hassling me, saying he was from some insurance firm I've never even heard of. Proper aggressive about it too.5 yearsLooks like 01138241544 is flagged for bank fraud. Watch out if you get a call from that number!5 yearsGot a call from someone with an Indian accent, but they just ended the call straight away.5 yearsGot a call saying I’d won some kind of food voucher from the postcode lottery. The person actually knew my name and where I live, but I noticed they had a weird foreign accent. Didn’t stick around long - ended the call before they even tried asking for my bank info or anything. Pretty sure the postcode lottery doesn’t hand out prizes like that anyway.5 yearsGot a call from someone claiming I’d won a food voucher from some postcode lottery. They actually knew my name and where I live. The person speaking had a bit of an accent that didn’t sound local. I ended the call quickly before they could start asking for my bank info or anything. I’m pretty sure postcode lotteries don’t hand out prizes like that anyway.5 yearsGot a call from a weird foreign accent and they already knew my name. They said my area was chosen to get a food voucher! I told him straight up that it’s a total scam. If I kept talking, I bet they’d try to get my bank info. Do these people really think we’re all daft?5 yearsMy mum got a call saying her postcode showed up and to get a free holiday and some discount card, she’d need to give her bank details. She put me on speaker while on the call. When i asked who they were, she got really annoyed and wouldn’t tell me anything. Luckily she rang me first as this number has been ringing her loads. Glad she checked with me!5 yearsSomeone just rang and kept asking for my mum, using her first name as if she was still here. She passed away back in 2018. I reckon this isn't the first time they've done this either. Calls like this really get to me. It’s proper upsetting. My number’s on the do-not-call list but still, they bother me. You'd hope someone would take action to stop this sort of thing. Would be nice if they did.5 yearsThey told me my postcode showed up.5 yearsGot a call on Saturday around 4.20pm while I wasn’t home, but they didn’t leave any message.5 yearsAbout ten minutes back, I got a call but no one spoke. Complete silence on the line.5 yearsGot a call claiming to be from the postcode lottery, saying I'd won a holiday for my family.

Box5 yearsReceived a call purporting to be from the postcode lottery. The chap mentioned something about offering me a discount card worth 20%. When I requested he take my number off their calling list, he abruptly ended the conversation. How rude!5 yearsGot a call from a lady with an Indian accent who claimed my postcode had won something. But when I asked for details about the contest, she just ended the call. Definitely a SCAM.5 yearsMy phone buzzed but I didn't pick up, it went straight to voicemail with no message. Had a quick look on this site afterwards and turns out it was a scam call. Lucky I didn't bother answering!5 yearsI got a call on Thursday from a number I didn’t know, so I just ignored it. They didn’t bother leaving a voicemail or anything.5 yearsI received a call from someone claiming to be Peter, and he was going on about me winning the postcode lottery-quite amusing, really, given the fact that I don't even participate in it. He kept insisting that it wasn't necessary to enter in order to win, which seemed utterly bonkers to me! So, I decided to end the conversation right there. However, shortly after, I phoned the number back, and a man with an American accent answered, saying, "Your call matters to us." At that point, I thought it best to disconnect again. Quite the peculiar experience, I must say!Peter5 yearsGot a call from 01138241544 with a lady from India saying I'd won some cash prize. She asked for my bank info to send the money, but I just ended the call straight away.5 yearsSomebody called saying they were from the postcode lottery, said they wanted my bank details to send me a 20% off card for supermarkets. They were a bit dodgy about explaining their organisation and quickly ended the call when I asked more questions!5 yearsBloody idiots!5 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be Aviva, said they could offer me a cheaper insurance deal.

Naturally, I was intrigued and decided to hear him out. He claimed that I had been chosen for a discount card allowing me to enjoy 40-50% savings at popular retailers such as Asda, Tesco, M&S, and Sainsbury's. However, I quickly recognised it as a scam and made my feelings clear. Despite my protests, he adamantly insisted it was legitimate. I informed him that I would be reporting his number to the authorities, to which he retorted, “Good luck with that!” and cheerily wished me a nice day before abruptly ending the call.AsdaTescoM & SSainsbury 's5 yearsI received a call purporting to be from the postcode lottery, saying they required my bank information to provide me with a pound and a supermarket discount card offering 20% off. However, when I probed a bit more about the legitimacy of the lottery and if it was indeed a registered charity, the caller abruptly ended the conversation. Quite suspicious if you ask me!5 yearsI got a call from this number and the person on the other end kept asking if I was someone else.

Pretty odd mix-up.5 yearsI didn’t pick up and just looked through the comments instead, then decided to block the number.5 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be with the postcode lottery, offering a discount card for shops. When I told them I wasn’t really bothered and just hung on without saying much, it seemed like they were hoping I’d say more.

Quite confusing to listen to!5 yearsGot another call today, definitely a scam.5 yearsGot a call from 0113 824 1544, supposedly from Leeds. They claimed my postcode was chosen for a prize - total scam! Be careful folks.Leeds5 yearsA call came through claiming to be from something called lifestyle travel and food.

Seemed polite enough but definitely a bit too aggressive with the pressure.Europe5 yearsI got a call from that number but my phone warned me it might be a scam, so I just ignored it.5 yearsI didn’t recognise the number, so I decided against picking up. Based on what others have said, I’ve now blocked it as well.5 yearsI received a call with no one on the line, and then they just disconnected. Quite odd!5 yearsReceived a call with no one on the other end. Quite peculiar, really.5 yearsAs the call was from a Leeds area code and I happen to know a few folk in that region, I decided to ring back. To my surprise, I was greeted by an automated answering service, with an American accent stating, "Your call is very important to us. Please hold." I waited for roughly half a minute but, regrettably, there was no follow-up. I've since added the number to my blocked list.Leeds5 yearsReceived a call from someone with an overseas accent asking for the person who used to have this number.

Quite odd, really.5 yearsToday, I got a call from 01138241544, sounded like they had a South Asian accent. The caller asked for me by name, which was right. When I asked who they were, they just said "your father." Definitely someone I'd block, obvious scam.5 yearsGot a message saying I won a discount card for my area, which supposedly gives 50% off groceries. Plus, because they reckon I’m in my 50s, they said I’d also won a holiday for four somewhere in Europe. It was from some company called Lifestyles. Then they asked me to verify my identity by giving my bank sort code and account number for a £1 test payment. Yeah, like I’m falling for that!Europe5 yearsI got a call earlier from someone asking for a Mrs. Rose, which was pretty strange. This isn’t the first time I’ve been asked for that name either. We’ve had this number since 1988, so it’s definitely gotta be some sort of scam.Rose5 yearsGot a call from someone claiming they had a discount card just for my postcode. They began asking loads of personal stuff, so I just messedd around to kill time.Submit Your Own Report (0113 824 1544)
