The phone rang but hung up just as I was about to pick up, no voicemail left either.

‭0116 286 2132‬ rang me earlier today, I kept saying hello a few times but got no answer, then just as I was about to hang up, I heard a woman talking in the background.

Got a call from this number but they hung up right away, didn’t get a chance to pick up - no voicemail left either. The number looked really long, kinda weird, maybe a fake caller ID? Tried searching it online, nothing showed up. I’m on the TPS list, so shouldn’t be getting random calls, and I only share my number with close friends and family.

Got another call about boiler or heating grants. Told them to stop sending me stuff, but I’m pretty sure they didn’t bother to note it down.

No sound on the line, but I reckon it’s one of those heating support cons. Just blocked it.

I’ve requested to be taken off their list, yet I still receive these annoying calls with alarming frequency.

Got my heating cut off coz I’m on benefits now.

didn’t recognise the number and they didn’t leave any message either

What a bunch of muppets! I attempted to clarify, quite courteously, that none of us in the household are on any benefits, and yet they just hang up and call again the very next day. Eventually, I snapped and let loose with a few choice words. They kept pestering me, ringing every five minutes just to wind me up. In the end, I had no choice but to block their number. It's quite easy for them to hide behind the veil of a phone call, isn't it?

Got a call from someone saying there was a Norwegian pigeon in my bank account or something like that. They said it was a serious matter and that the pigeon was aggressive too. I got concerned and ended up giving them my bank details, sort code, plus my mum’s maiden name and the name of my first pet. Fingers crossed the proper authorities catch that awful scammer soon.

01163930241 keeps ringing me all the time, getting really annoying.

Totally a silent scammer. Have reported it.

I have no clue who was on the phone, but their English was quite poor. They told me I could qualify for a new central heating boiler if I’m on benefits. I didn’t even bother chatting with them, just said no thanks and ended the call. This number keeps calling me way too often. It’s some sort of scam, like fake hacking or something like that, trying to fool you into giving away your bank info. Best to avoid them completely.

They rang while we weren’t home but didn’t bother to leave a voicemail.

I received a call that started off with "Good day, I'm calling regarding..." before I swiftly terminated the conversation. I typically brush off international or private number calls, but this one looked like it was coming from a Leicester line. I've now added the number to my block list. Honestly, the sheer volume of cold calls these days is quite staggering, and the Telephone Preference Service feels about as useful as a chocolate teapot!

I'm getting these calls again, thought I'd sorted it with Magrathea before. This time it's a bit different, sounds like it's from another place. Same daft scam about heating benefits though. Still haven't figured out who holds the lease for this line.

Got a call from a guy, sounded foreign - maybe Filipno? He was asking if anyone’s on benefits so we could qualify for a boiler grant. Claimed to be from 'Heating & Benefits' or something like that but didn’t want to give many details. I just hung up and didn’t share any info.

Absolutely, I've had my fair share of those dodgy calls too-typical thick foreign accents droning on about boilers and government schemes. It's high time someone put a stop to this nonsense!

I usually reply by saying my number instead of my name. After a short pause, they just end the call.

Mentioned I was on the TPS register and they just cut the call right away.

They said a few words and then just ended the call abruptly.

I received a phone call from an individual purporting to represent "Heating & Benefits", inquiring whether I was currently receiving any benefits. Upon probing for the name of their company, they abruptly terminated the call. Quite suspect, if you ask me!

I’ve been getting calls from 0161 464 6170 for a while, but recently, this new number has started calling me instead. It’s pretty clear to me the two are connected since mentions of the first number have dropped and now everyone’s talking about this one. Honestly, the TPS is useless as always. Cold calling should be outright illegal, with massive fines and jail time for those behind it.

Received a call today at precisely 12:59. We weren't in at the time, so I couldn't pick up, and they didn't bother leaving a voicemail.

got a caller with a foreign accent talking about some government grant for heating if you're on benefits. i asked her how she got my number and she said i'd already been in touch before, which i know for sure isn't true. i just ended the call.

no sound on the other end, just silence when I answered.

I chose not to pick up and let it ring through to voicemail, but no message was recorded. What a bother, especially at a time when my family member is trying to recuperate due to health issues. It’s absolutely maddening that these unsolicited callers continue to plague us. There’s nothing right about this kind of business conduct. It really ought to be put to an end!

no noise on the line, just silence when i picked up.
