4 yearsI called the Kingswood Bristol branch of the British Heart Foundation as a follow up, and it was all completely legit :)British Heart FoundationKingswoodBristol4 yearsAbout a call I got from 01179117605, a Bristol landline. They said they were giving a free loft insulation check if I was aged between 49 and 79, then started asking loads about my house. I mentioned I’d already had calls from ‘them’ asking the same stuff, but the woman, called Olivia, said it must’ve been another firm. When I started to get a bit suspicious and asked more questions, the line just cut out like it had done before. Honestly, it all sounds like a scam to me.BristolOlivia4 yearsGot a call with no one speaking on the other end.

She told me straight up not to hang up while she was doing the survey. I mentioned I wasn’t interested, which seemed to annoy her quite a bit. So, I ended the call and blocked her number.
