3 yearsReceived a call and the moment I picked up, they addressed me by my name, with a distinct Indian accent. It’s high time we put a stop to companies like this!3 yearsMy phone flagged this call as maybe spam, so I didn’t pick up. Missed it in the end.3 yearsLooks like a dodgy life insurance scam to me. Stay clear and don’t fall for it!3 yearsGot a call from 0117 911 1676 on my mobile. When I picked up, I asked, “Is this a sales call? What exactly are you trying to sell?” A man with a thick accent replied (could hardly understand him): “I’m from xxxx Insurance… do you have insurance?” I said, “I’m already covered, cheers - no interest.” I try to be polite since everyone’s just doing their job, after all. He kept pushing, so I just said politely, “Thanks for calling, but I’ve got to go now,” and hung up.xxxx Insurance4 yearsGot a call from some bloke trying to sell life insurance. Weird part is, he already knew my name even tho he rang my landline and I returned the call on my mobile. How on earth did he get my mobile number? Sure seems dodgy to me.

I blocked the number and reported it to the three networks as spam by sending a text saying Call 01179111676 to 7726 (which spells SPAM on the phone keypad with letters). You can just forward unwanted texts to that number. Other providers probably have comparable services too. Do this so the number gets blocked if enough people report it, specially if you reckon it's a scam rather than just junk calls.Firm4 yearsCalled me but no reply.4 yearsThey were asking questions about my life insurance (which I don’t actually have), saying they wanted to make sure I had the best plan.

I was advised to share this after raising my concerns with my MP about the constant scam calls I was getting. It seems scammers don’t want people to know this info. If you don’t report these scams, don’t think anything will change. Reporting to 7726, your phone company, Ofcom, or the businesses the scammers pretend to be can help somewhat, but those reports might not always reach the police for possible criminal action.Ofcom4 yearsPicked up cause it showed a Bristol number. Some guy was trying to sell me insurance but I told him I already got coverage and don’t want any more. He just wouldn’t listen and kept pushing. Ended up telling him I’m not interested and ended the call.Bristol4 yearsHad some daft call just now, right in the middle of dinner.
