I had a feeling this number was dodgy, so I decided not to pick up. I've since blocked it.

I picked up the call, but there was nothing but silence on the other end. Eventually, she uttered a name, though it was so muffled I couldn’t quite catch it.

I encountered a rather forceful lady who insisted on a response from me, declaring, 'I'm aware you're on the line, so respond!' She seemed to know our names and it turned out to be the most unpleasant cold call experience I've ever had.

The caller was rather forceful, hung up without a second thought, and then rang back straight away, only to disconnect once more.

Received a call from someone claiming my computer had been hacked. I informed them that we don’t own a computer and abruptly hung up. They persisted, ringing me another four times, threatening to block my 'bleeding' computer! What a farce!

I received a call from someone claiming to be Priti from "Microsoft," and when I inquired about which of my six computers had supposedly been compromised, she became quite defensive. She insisted that all of them were affected. Clearly, it was nothing but a scam!

I received a rather dodgy phone call from a woman purporting to be from BT, claiming my computer had been hacked. I was immediately sceptical and told her so, before hanging up. Not long after, she rang me back, threatening to continue the calls if I dared to end the conversation again. In the end, I decided to disconnect the phone line altogether to put an end to the nonsense!

I chimed in with a greeting, but there was nothing but silence in return.

This morning, I received a call, but I couldn’t be bothered to pick up.

What a nuisance! It’s truly disheartening to come across people who waste your time like this. It’s incredibly frustrating to deal with.

I received a rather dubious call today from someone purporting to represent Windows, alleging that my computer had been compromised and that there were nefarious individuals attempting to breach my account. Apparently, since the account bears my name, I’d supposedly be liable for any misdeeds! They warned that unless I took immediate action, all my online activities would be blocked. Quite absurd, considering we don’t even own a computer—just an iPad. I suspected it was a scam, so I promptly ended the call. To my surprise, the same individual rang back! I chose not to answer, and he left an extremely convoluted voicemail filled with poor grammar, accusing me of being foolish for ignoring him and advising me not to waste their time. How audacious! He had the nerve to try contacting me a third time, which I, of course, ignored. I’d already done some digging to verify my hunches regarding the number. Just a word of caution—stay vigilant!

I've got no clue who this might be! They didn't leave a message, and I certainly don't know any folks in Bristol. Sounds like a right dodgy caller to me!

Received a rather alarming call regarding some computer issues. I decided to end the conversation promptly. The caller was annoyingly tenacious, and to my dismay, they rang again. In the end, I resorted to unplugging the phone, and now I’ve ensured that number is blocked for good.

Absolutely nobody answered the call.

I missed a call from this number and let it ring through to my voicemail, but they didn't bother to leave a message. Interestingly, I've had two calls from them in the past day.

I received a rather alarming call from this number, claiming that my computer had been hacked. The person on the other end was an incredibly discourteous woman of Asian descent, who decided to ring me back three times in quick succession. She persisted with two more calls, but I chose to ignore them and let my answering machine take over. Quite the nuisance, I must say!

I had a rather unpleasant encounter with a chap sporting an Indian accent who insisted he was calling from Microsoft. He was quite confrontational, which was totally uncalled for. I ended up disconnecting the call three times before I had to switch off my phone for about ten minutes to regain my sanity. Later, I noticed a missed call from the same number, but there was no voicemail left.

This particular number seems to ignore all my calls and even has a tendency to switch its digits frequently. Quite suspicious, if you ask me!

When I answered the call, there was nothing but silence on the other end.

Another one of those pesky silent calls—how tiresome!

I firmly reckon that if it were something significant, the caller would’ve left a message, but alas, they didn’t. I tried 1471 to trace the number and subsequently searched for it online. Just my luck, yet another random caller with no good reason!

I received numerous calls from a chap claiming to be from Microsoft Windows, insisting that unless we followed his instructions, our laptop would be locked out. It felt quite threatening, to say the least!

Received a call earlier today but decided to pass on answering. The caller didn’t bother to leave a message, so I’ve no clue who it was.

Cheshire: Initially, it struck me as one of those typical scams from the Far East, trying to convince me that they could prevent my computer from being disconnected, all while claiming affiliation with some fictitious division of a tech company. Usually, we would just hang up or they’d flee at the first hint of scepticism. However, this particular encounter was quite vicious and escalated beyond the norm. First, my wife answered the call (truthfully) stating she neither owned a computer nor used the web, and promptly hung up. No sooner had she ended the call than the woman called back, clearly irked, and insisted, "Don’t hang up, we’re aware you have a computer!" Once again, my wife terminated the conversation. The caller wasted no time and dialled back again. This time I picked up, and she addressed me by my surname, sternly advising me not to hang up or deny computer ownership, much like my wife had. She was terribly rude, making threats about how they had knowledge regarding my computer and that disconnection was imminent. I hung up yet again and attempted to trace the number through 1471, but it just kept ringing engaged. This is an alarming turn of events worth evading… I shudder to think what an elderly relative might do if confronted with something like this... All of this occurs despite our registration with the Telephone Preference Service!

Received a call with no one on the line; they just disconnected.

I received a call from this number, and the caller informed me that I should anticipate a delivery within the next three to five days. Strangely, they hung up after mentioning my name and address. Quite odd, if you ask me!

I haven’t a clue who this was; they hung up as soon as my voicemail kicked in. I've blocked the number.

I picked up the phone, but all I heard was nothing but crickets, so I decided to block that number.

I could hear a bustling call centre in the background, and the chap on the line mentioned something about a postcode lottery. To be honest, I struggled to grasp what he was on about, so I decided to hang up rather swiftly.

Received a call on the 20th of October, 2021, around 3 in the afternoon. The caller claimed to represent the postcode lottery. However, the moment I probed them with a few extra questions, they promptly hung up on me. Curious behaviour, to say the least!

Absolutely knackered by the absence of genuine folks online! It's quite vexing dealing with time wasters. Honestly, there ought to be some regulations in place to put a stop to this nonsense!

It was purportedly from the postcode lottery. However, they hung up abruptly when I started probing with a few more questions than they anticipated.

I received a call with no one on the other end, and then it just disconnected.

I've received calls from this number multiple times, yet there are never any voicemails. Very peculiar!

Had a rather challenging phone call with a woman who had a heavy Indian accent, and the background noise was quite distracting – sounded like she was in a call centre. I struggled to catch what she was saying, but I think it was related to energy or something similar. I didn’t stick around for long as it was too difficult to follow.

Received a call but there was no one on the other end. Quite mysterious!

I keep getting calls from someone claiming to be from 'Microsoft Manufacturing', insisting that there are 'error alerts' on my computer! It's becoming rather tiresome!

Received a call purporting to be from 'Global Energy'. I decided to terminate the call.

Called but there was absolutely nobody there on the other side.

Once more, it’s the mysterious Caller of Silence making an appearance.

Yet another dodgy scheme making the rounds, it seems!

Continually rang until it hit the voicemail and then promptly disconnected.

Just had a call from some Asian bloke peddling the same old nonsense about mortgages and insurance. Honestly, these calls are just tiresome! Never divulge any personal details unless you're keen on being bombarded by a whole host of dodgy salespeople. Best to block them and get back to enjoying your day!

I received a call but there was no response on the other end; they simply cut off the line right away.

I received a call where there was nothing but silence, and then the line just went dead.

The caller had such a soft voice that it was difficult to make out what they were saying, and then they just ended the call abruptly.

I received a call where nobody spoke, and then they just disconnected the line.

I was hoping to find out the brand of my washing machine, so I inquired about it. The reason? I wanted to check which models were trending. However, after my query, he suggested reaching out to the manufacturers for the actual sales figures. Then, without further ado, he abruptly ended the call.

Purported to be affiliated with Legal & General Life Insurance

Steer clear of this dodgy number!

Called, but the line just disconnected.

A rather bustling call centre, it seems!

Frequent caller alert!

I’ve been receiving a barrage of unfamiliar phone numbers lately, and it’s quite baffling. I shouldn’t be inundated with these calls, especially since I’ve specifically paid to block unknown numbers from reaching me. Quite frustrating, to say the least!

I received a missed call from 01174054847, but there was no voicemail. Seems a bit dodgy to me, as any legitimate company would typically leave a message with their info. I tried calling back, but it didn’t go through. I’ve decided to block the number.

I didn't recognise the number, so I opted not to pick up. I frequently consult this site, and it appears to be a dodgy one. I’ll be adding it to my block list!

I had a rather dodgy call from a woman with an accent that sounded Asian. She struggled to say my name correctly, which made me highly suspicious. I suggested that if she couldn't manage that simple task, it was likely she was up to no good, and promptly hung up. After checking this site, I’ve now added her number to my blocked list!

A remarkably boorish chap who raised his voice in an obnoxious manner.

I was hoping to cut down my home insurance costs, but when they called to pitch their offer, I wasn't keen and ended the call.

I picked up the phone and greeted him, but to my surprise, he immediately revealed my name and my address! Naturally, I was taken aback and inquired about the purpose of his call. He mentioned something about a survey and proceeded to ask if I had a mortgage. I made it abundantly clear that I found his approach highly unsettling and bizarre, especially as those were his opening queries. It’s quite disconcerting when someone knows personal details without even bothering to introduce themselves. I opted to hang up the call after that. Such a blatant scam!

I received a call purporting to be from Windows, alleging that my identity had been compromised and was being misused.
