Yet another annoying call about boiler replacements! I’m absolutely fed up with these persistent cold callers. Honestly, something should be done to outlaw this kind of nuisance.

Like others have said, I got a call from an Asian guy asking if I was the homeowner about a new boiler. When I said no thanks, we don’t need one, he kept pushing saying it was some government programme. Once I said I wasn’t bothered, he started yelling in an accent I could barely understand! Proper rude.

Had a call from a lady with a very heavy Asian accent, couldn't make out most of what she was saying. She asked where they had my number from, but I didn't answer. As soon as I started probing her, she ended the call sharpish. Definitely looks like one of those dodgy scams. I really don't get how these firms think it's worth their time, considering they must get loads of annoyed folks ringing them back without falling for anything.

They kept asking for the person who owns the house and kept going on about it being some sort of government program, but it was obvious a scam. Total rubbish.

I got a call earlier, but when I picked up, there was just silence on the other end.

i never pick up calls from strange numbers. this one was clearly rubbish, they just dropped the call as soon as my voicemail started. these annoying calls happen all the time and honestly, there should be some way to put a stop to them.

No idea who this was, they rang me at about 9.20 in the morning, must be one of those business callers trying to sell something. I don’t know anyone from Sheffield either.

Got a call from someone who kept asking for the homeowner but wouldn’t say what company they were from or how they found my number. They had an accent, maybe Indian or Asian, and kept going on about boilers. Kept saying his name was “John,” but it all felt dodgy. I would steer clear!

Absolutely dodgy call - when i rang back no one picked up. Later someone did but wouldn’t say what company they were from, seemed like they were fishing for info. If they somehow have my home number, which is supposed to be ex directory, how come they don’t even know my name? I hardly ever use that number on any online forms! Ended up just hanging up.

I’ve had calls about the boiler before, so I bet it's the same old story again. I’m on the Telephone Preference Service, but apparently that doesn't stop these calls perfectly. Just silence when I answer.

I called but there was no reply from the other side, so I just ended the call.

Like a few others have said, I got no answer from the person when I called back, so I just ended the call.

Got a call from someone who sounded really pushy, probably trying to scam me. They kept asking if I was the homeowner but never told me which company they were with. Just kept going on and on about wanting to speak to the homeowner. Felt like a phishing attempt to me.
