2 yearsI told them I wasn’t comfortable giving out my address and they just dropped the call right away. Total scam, no doubt.2 yearsWhen I mentioned I didn’t have cover for my kitchen appliances, the caller straight up said he was trying to sell insurance. Honestly, I’m not about to buy any insurance from someone ringing out of the blue.2 yearsGot a second call from a Bristol number but didn’t pick up since I’ve got no links there and don’t know anyone from that area. They didn’t leave any message either, so I just went ahead and blocked it. Feels dodgy, probably some scam since they’re calling from different numbers but all from Bristol.Bristol2 yearsGot a call about cutting down my kitchen appliance warranty, which I don't even own. The guy claimed he could lower it from £350 to £250. So, I decided to mess about and played some Jim Carrey quotes from my computer, loads of his famous film lines. The caller found it hilarious and ended up chuckling loads before hanging up. I do this sort of thing whenever they ring. Just have a bit of fun and waste their time as long as possible.Jim Carrey2 yearsThis number called me but as soon as I picked up, the person just ended the call immediately ####2 yearsI get like six calls every day and honestly, it’s getting on my nerves big time.2 yearsGot a call from some rude, clueless woman with an Indian accent. I politely asked who was calling, and she just snapped back saying she wouldn’t tell me and then hung up. Guess she realised her scam was blown before even trying. Not the sharpest scammer I’ve dealt with, that’s for sure. The number was from Bristol, which is a dead giveaway it’s a scam, plus I’m not expecting any calls from companies right now. I just like having a laugh winding them up!Bristol2 yearsThe number of calls I get every day is just insane. I’ve started picking up, staying silent for a bit, and then they just end the call. It’s getting so annoying!2 yearsWhenever I get these scam calls about my household gear, I’ve got a little routine to deal with them. I just shut them down when they start chatting about my stuff and say, “Hang on, could you tell me your name again? And which firm did you say you’re with?” I pretend like I’m jotting it down nice and slow, which seems to wind them up a bit and eats up their time - kind of giving them a taste of their own medicine. Then, if they carry on with their spiel and try to con me, I drag it out, firing off more questions, but I’m careful not to reveal anything personal.2 yearsGot a scam call saying I always pay my bills on time and shop at specific places, so I qualify for discount vouchers and promo codes. I told them I was only 16, still live with my folks, and don’t handle any bills or shopping, which is all true. They didn’t believe me and called me a liar, so I stayed chilled and called them out for trying to trick a kid into sharing personal details, even went as far as calling them paedophiles.2 yearsGot a call but couldn't pick up.2 yearsSo this guy called, sounded like one of those call centres from India. As soon as he began with the scam stuff, I just ended the call.India2 yearsGot a call from some “insurance company” asking for my personal info, which I reckon was just some scammers trying to grab my data and probably sell it on to others.

He ended the call faster than I could blink!2 yearsI just ended the call quickly.2 yearsGot three missed calls all before lunch today. Honestly, how pathetic do these idiots have to be trying to scam me? 😂2 yearsReceived a call earlier purporting to be from Smart Savings UK. I probed them with a couple of questions, and they ended the conversation abruptly.Smart Savings UK2 yearsGot a call from some bloke claiming my washing machine’s insurance had expired. He was asking me loads of questions, but I told him if he’s the insurance company, he should already have my address and details, right? He said he’d send the forms to renew the cover anyway. I told him I wasn’t interested, and then he hung up. Proper scam, no doubt about it!2 yearsGot a message about a supercard that'll supposedly send me £200 and offer discounts at top supermarkets.
