I picked up the phone when it rang, but there was nobody on the other end. After a moment of silence, the auto dialler just cut off.

Someone called me claiming to be from Hope for Heroes. I had a weird feeling about it so I just ended the call and blocked the number.

I’m seriously thinking of getting a whistle just to drown out these annoying scammers. Honestly, ring me if you want, but I’m so done with all the constant pestering.

Over the last few days, I got two calls from a number that was hidden, so it didn’t show up. Didn’t pick up either time. Later, a woman left a message saying she was with "PRS" and wanted me to ring back about something to do with "office audio" or something like that - hard to catch exactly because the line was cracking. She asked me to call 01164976884 but I’ve no intention of calling them back or wasting my time.

Same thing happened to me, the person on the phone brought up a music licence but the moment I told them to speak with our head office over in Canada, they just hung up straight away.

Im retired and got a call from someone saying I needed to get a radio licence. They warned that if I listened to the radio or played music without one, it would be against the law. Watch out, those could be scammers trying to trick you.

Received a voicemail urging me to ring back due to an impending licence expiry. Oddly enough, they didn't mention which company it was from or how urgent the situation really is. Quite puzzling!

I got a call on my office VoIP phone and the caller left a really short voicemail, just like two seconds long. So I took a minute to check out the number online and saw loads of comments from other people, some even mentioned it being a premium rate number. Ended up just deleting the voicemail straight away.

Complete waste of time, just some dodgy TV and radio licence scam.

I'm really relieved I checked it out first. Got a voicemail about some license I supposedly have. Honestly, I might've fallen for it if I wasn't careful. The company said it was PPLPRS.

Got a call from this number at my office, they wanted to know if we had any music playing devices. I told them we just have people giving testimonials. They seemed confused and asked what that meant. When I looked up the number 01164976884 later, I found out it’s actually a scam. Pretty dodgy if you ask me.

Got a call claiming there's some urgent licensing issue for my business.. totally no music or anything in the background. Def a SCAM, watch out!

Got a call out of the blue from some PRS folks trying to squeeze us into buying a licence that’s absolutely unnecessary. Proper muppets, honestly.

I answered the call but all I could hear was a lot of noise like it was coming from a crowded call centre. Then, suddenly, they just ended the call.

Complete scam - these folks, PPL PRS Ltd, were trying to push some sort of music licence for my workplace. They left a voicemail, saying it was "really important" and they "had" to talk to me about business stuff. I work at a proper office with zero music happening here. Bet they just grabbed my contact from some online directory, like the new Yellow Pages or something!

Absolute scam - I’ve had a call from PPL PRS wanting to chat about some kind of licensing for music in my workplace. They insisted it was a pressing issue that required immediate discussion. The thing is, we're a proper office where music is never on the agenda. It seems they must have sourced my number from some sort of digital directory, akin to the old Yellow Pages!

I received a call from a bloke named 'Matthew' who wanted me to return his call regarding a music licence for some venue. The thing is, I don’t own any premises nor do I need a PRS - PPL licence. Seems like it might be a dodgy call to me!

Had a rather dubious phone call just before New Year’s Eve from some chancers claiming to be involved with music licensing. They’re clearly up to no good as I already possess the necessary licence. Just goes to show what lengths these scammers will go to!

What a nuisance! I had one of those pestering telemarketers ring me up, claiming to be from PRS - PPL, inquiring if I possessed a licence for playing music. They even try to sell you one on the spot! It’s quite absurd how they eavesdrop on any tunes in the background to intimidate you with a visit if you don't comply. Next time they ring, just mention you're working from home and that they must be mistaken if they think they hear music, or simply say you’re in the car. Best to dodge these bothersome calls!

I received a rather persistent phone call from a firm associated with PRS and PPL, querying whether I had the correct licence to play music. It's quite a cheeky tactic; they keenly listen for any tunes in the background as soon as I pick up the line, and they even hint at the possibility of a visit if they suspect any wrongdoing. If you find yourself in a similar situation, a simple response of ‘I’m currently working from home’ or ‘I’m driving’ will usually suffice to put them off the scent. Just a little tip for handling these blokes!
