I've blocked this number loads of times, but they always call me from a new one. I've told them over and over that I’m not interested, yet they won't stop. It's getting really annoying now.

They keep calling every single day, often really late at night. I told them I wasn’t interested about a month and a half ago, but they just won’t stop 😡😡 Had to block the number.

They keep ringing me every couple of minutes, it's really getting on my nerves.

Got a call from uSwitch earlier, they were ringing about switching my gas and electricity provider.

Funny how the same good review shows up all over the place on websites like this, lol.

Got a call from u-switch and no matter how many times I say I’m not interested, they keep calling me nearly every day. I’m pretty clued up on energy deals so don’t need their advice on the best provider. I ended up saving their number under ‘zzz’ and blocked it straight away.

Don't pick up, it's definitely a scam.

I had a chat with a lady, though her name slips my mind. Usually, I steer clear of unsolicited calls, but I’m rather pleased I picked up this time as they managed to save me more than £200 on my electricity bill! Admittedly, I’m not overly keen on engaging with cold callers in the future, but I’ve saved this number and wouldn’t mind receiving a similar energy offer each year.

Last week, this number rang me up. The bloke on the other end was proper professional and helped me cut down my bills. I didn’t even realise I was being charged an extra £400! Big thumbs up to them.

I’m usually not one to answer calls from strangers, but I picked up this time and I’m really pleased I did. I can’t quite recall the lady’s name who called, but she helped me cut more than £200 off my electricity bill. I’m still a bit hesitant about random calls, but I saved the number and wouldn’t mind having them check my energy plan each year.

I got a call from a guy who said his name was Elliot and claimed to be from some company working together with U-Switch about energy deals. He kept telling me I was with Empower, which I definitely am not. I told him I wasn’t interested, but he kept pushing so I just hung up. Honestly, when will these annoying calls ever stop? It’s getting ridiculous.

They phoned me two times today and no one said a word, just some noise in the back. Proper odd if you ask me.

So on the 29th of November around 7.41pm, I got a voicemail from this number and when I played it, the message was just rude, calling me "f*** FACE" and all that... lovely, eh? I had actually blocked them ages ago, figured they'd have stopped bothering me by now, but nope - they're getting really nasty and seem to be getting pretty abusive now!!!!!!

Picked up the phone and all I could hear was a bunch of noise, sounded like a call centre in the background. No one actually talked so I just ended the call.

Got a call from a number I didn’t recognise. Rang twice, no one picked up. Felt like it was one of those robo dialers or something. Pretty annoying!

Could you please stop calling? It's really not very nice, thanks.

Can someone tell me who keeps ringing? It’s the same number buzzing my phone every single day.

This number has been calling me pretty much every day, but I haven't picked up since I don’t know who it is. Can someone help me figure out who might be behind these calls?
