I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number, but they still don’t bother to leave any message.

It kept ringing nonstop, so I ended up blocking the number.

Loads of calls keep coming from numbers starting with 01204200, all pretty much the same. I’m deaf so I don’t pick up, just end up hanging up right away. Feels like these are scam calls given how often they ring me.

Randomly, the caller began asking about the colour of my trousers, and in the background, there was this weird breathing noise. Honestly, it really seemed like they were doing some sort of inappropriate act or something.

I got a call from someone claiming to be from a social housing group, saying there might be a house available for me. They promised to ring me back but I never heard from them again.

They kept ringing me twice a day, like clockwork. I finally had to switch my number to get some peace.

This number popped up on my missed calls.

They seemed to have all my info already, which was pretty creepy. I'd say just ignore and block the number if you can, or if you answer, give them enough grief so they never bother you again.

They claimed to be from the housing association but I just started making stuff up, then they hung up on me lol.

This number keeps ringing me and when I block it, others just start buzzing in. Every time my phone flags it as a scam, so I just let it ring out. Surely if it was something really urgent, they'd leave a voicemail message?

I keep getting calls from 01204 200***, picked up once and the line just went silent, so I blocked it. Then another call came from a very similar number. If these calls were legit, why don’t they show up properly on ID? Surely these numbers should be linked to some kind of account? Or do phone providers let these calls go through at no cost? Either way, blocked them all.

Got a call claiming to be from housing and repairs, they had all my info right? But when I rang my housing office, they said they had no idea who the caller was. Pretty suspect if you ask me.

Got a call from 01204200253, it was a woman with an Indian accent asking for someone I don't know. I told her she’d dialed the wrong number and then just ended the call.

The number showed up as Farm, so I just blocked it straight away. I’m fed up with getting calls from strangers I don’t know. I’m over having to look them up online all the time. Honestly, the government should step in and sort this nonsense out once and for all. Cheers!

Some random council from England I ain't even living there trying to scam me, unbelievable. They should really verify stuff before pulling these stunts. Pathetic behaviour!

It showed Bolton again, just like other times, so I didn’t answer. After checking the comments here, I’ve decided to block the number now.

Do not pick up or just block this caller. They called me using my old married name and pretended they were from the Council!!!

i've called them twice already about my social housing issues and kept saying theres mould in the kitchen, loads of ants, broken tiles all over and no heating at all. which is true, but honestly i just like wasting their time sometimes too.

got a call from some number in bolton and just gave it a miss. sounds like typical scammy stuff to me. sometimes i wish there was some clever trick to waste their time instead of just playing along. imagine if we could jam their lines or something, make their phones ring non-stop. guess you gotta fight fire with fire sometimes!

Got a call from someone called William earlier, said he was with social housing help. He asked if there was any dampness in my place. Told him if that was the case, I'd reach out to my local council since they're my landlord. Then he claimed to be from my local council. I asked why he was ringing from Bolton and which council exactly he was representing. He didn’t have an answer, so I just ended the call.

My mate got a call from this number claiming they were from some housing group linked to the council, saying there’d be some work on the house. But they started mentioning my mate’s address, which he reckons he’s never lived at. They asked about damp or condensation on the windows and if he was still paying rent. He said nah, never lived there and not paying any rent. Then they just hung up on him.

Since the number was from Bolton and I don't know anyone there, I chose not to pick up. I've got calls from that area before and they've all turned out to be scams.

Had no luck getting through, so I just hung up. They've started ringing from different numbers, all from around Bolton, but I’ve blocked them now too. It’s just another load of scam calls, nothing else.

Over the past few months, I've been getting calls from numbers that look really alike. Every time I block one, another number with a nearby Bolton code rings me up a day or two later. It’s like they’re just rotating through the same handful of numbers.

I’m not sure but this is the third time I’ve been called from a number in Bolton, and each time the call ends abruptly. Feels like it could be one of those scam calls, so I wouldn’t trust it at all.

this number kept ringing me a few times in the past weeks, but I didn’t pick up since I didn’t recognise the number at all!
