Definitely a scam call. It was a woman with a heavy accent I could hardly make out, and she just ended the call when I asked what the reason for her call was.

Wasn't sure who it was so I just ignored the call, and they didn’t leave a voicemail either.

For sure a scam, i recently purchased something from AO too and now i get these dodgy calls all the time. The one time i picked up, the person on the other end wasn’t speaking english so it was impossible to make sense of it. Seriously, where are these scammers getting phone numbers from big, trusted firms?

Sounded like one of those car crash scams. Had a thick accent I couldn’t place. Kept asking for my car number plate and then he just cut off the call.

Got a call from someone claiming to be British Gas Lite. They had a really thick Indian accent and their English was awful, sounded totally dodgy.

Got a call from someone claiming to be with o2, trying to push a cheeky discount deal. I told them I wasn’t interested, and they just brushed it off saying they’d already earned a year’s paycheck in just one month. Then they hung up on me. Absolutely fuming! 🤬

I just had a chat with a chap claiming to be from Regal Insurance who went on about how I was supposedly implicated in an accident that wasn’t my fault, blah blah blah.

It’s clear as day this bloke is up to no good.

Not sure who they are, never picked up. Strangely enough, after I booked some currency from No1Currency last year, I started getting loads of spam calls. Now, I only went ahead and booked currency with them again just yesterday. Bit odd, isn’t it?

Not sure who this is, but I got two calls from this Asian woman today and her English was kinda hard to understand.

My phone didn’t ring at all, it just bugged out briefly and then I saw a missed call alert. This is the second spam call I’ve had from Reading so far today.

Someone rang me saying they're from an insurance firm checking up on me after an accident. Seemed a bit fishy to me.

Just like others already mentioned, got a call about some no-fault insurance claim. Decided to block the number now.

Got a call from some so-called insurance firm about a car accident that didn’t happen to me at all. Felt like a dodgy call centre trying to scam or confuse me.

Got a call from a number I didnt know, so I looked it up here. Turns out its a scam, they said something about insurance but I never shared my phone with them. Pretty dodgy if you ask me.

I pick up the phone but remain silent until they decide to speak, yet all I get is an abrupt silence followed by the call ending without a word.

My phone showed it as possible spam, so I just didn't pick up.

Got a call from an unknown number, answered and it just disconnected straight away. No follow up call either, which feels pretty dodgy if you ask me.

Got a call from an Asian woman claiming it was about a car crash I never had. No accident happened at all, so I'm sure it was just some scam. That number’s now on my massive block list.

Got a call, and no one spoke on the other end.
