I got a call about life insurance, and they already had my name. When I asked how they got my number, they just hung up on me. Proper rude when I told them I wasn’t interested in their offer!

A call came through from a Sheffield number, but the person spoke with an accent that wasn’t quite local. They claimed to be from Sky broadband and even mentioned my name, offering some deal. When I said I wasn’t interested, they just hung up on me. Then just yesterday, I got another call, again from a Sheffield number, and this time they also knew my name and started pitching me on upgrading my life insurance. Quite odd!

I received a call from a Sheffield number, which was peculiar, as the person on the other end had a distinctly foreign accent. They claimed to be from Sky Broadband and were attempting to offer me some sort of service. I wasn't keen on what they were selling, so I politely declined, only for them to abruptly hang up on me. Interestingly, just the day before, another Sheffield-based number got in touch, and they, too, seemed to know my name. This time, they were pushing me to upgrade my life insurance. Quite a curious coincidence, wouldn’t you say?

Got a call from someone claiming to be insurance, but they could hardly speak any English. It felt like a total scam. These idiots just target old folks - they’re nothing but leeches. Hope they stay over in India and leave us alone, honestly.

Got a call on my mobile from 0114 299 0542, which I found out is a Sheffield landline. I’ve never been to Sheffield or know anyone there, so I just didn’t pick up. No voicemail left either. Looked it up online afterwards and decided to block the number.

Phone rang and the person immediately wanted my bank info and date of birth, claiming to be from my insurance. Didn’t feel right at all, so I just ended the call and blocked the number right away.

I've been receiving daily calls from this number, but honestly, I can't fathom why they keep ringing me.

I received a rather unexpected phone call from someone claiming to be with a firm named Search Life, which apparently deals in life insurance. Seems like yet another cold call to me.

Got a shady call trying to blag some of my personal info. I wasn’t exactly polite and pretty much told them to stick it where the sun don’t shine if they wanted my details. If they even thought they could get them, they were wrong. Throwing insults at them seems to do the trick - the nastier the insult, the faster they hang up. Sorted!

My phone showed a suspected spam alert when this number rang me. Turns out it was a firm called Search Life Insurance from Sheffield. I ended up ringing them back to see what it was about.
