This number shows up as Bolton on my caller ID. I just don’t pick up and block it immediately every time.

just like others keep saying about these numbers, they all point back to one guy called stuart wright who lives at 21a plymouth road, barnt green, birmingham b458jf. apparently he’s got a fraud conviction. no shock he’s got a fancy house when he's always tricking folks out of money!

This number is totally unfamiliar to me. They never bothered to leave any message either. I usually just let unknown numbers ring out; if it’s important they’ll leave a voicemail. Picking up just marks your number as ‘active’ and then you start getting endless cold calls and spam from loads of different numbers. I always avoid answering calls from people I don’t know ;)

Total scam alert. This number rings me up a couple times daily. They say they're from social housing but when I pressed for their location, it turned out they were in South Africa. The guy had a white South African accent too. Lately, I’ve been getting loads of dodgy calls from Joshana numbers. Feels like Joshana might be turning into the new hotspot for spam calls, much like Dubai was before.

My phone showed it was probably spam, so I didn't pick up and just blocked the number.

Just saw I had a call from this number and honestly, I’m relieved I didn’t pick up. Can’t believe some people actually fall for these dodgy calls and hand over their details to total strangers. I’ve got a big list of annoying numbers saved under “Arseholes” now, and this one’s on there for sure!

Got a couple of annoying calls, reckon it was from some dodgy housing association or something like that. Total spam.

Over the past week or so, I've been blocking loads of numbers like this, but somehow they manage to ring me from a different one each time. I've got all these numbers blocked now. If they're so keen on reaching me, they could at least leave a voicemail, but nope, nothing.

Somebody called saying they were from social housing, talking about a plumbing issue at a place I haven't lived in over fifteen years. Quite odd really.

Every day the phone rings! The last three numbers switch up all the time. Really wish I could find out how on earth these folks are getting hold of our details without permission.

I've had calls from 01204200261 pretty much every morning this week. Since I didn't know who it was, I just let it ring out. Cheers to everyone who's shared their experiences, much appreciated!

Keeps calling me daily, some scam about fixing council house problems. Total waste of time.

This number has rung me quite a few times recently, but now I'm getting calls from very similar numbers with the same area code and just the last three digits changing. I haven't a clue who they are, and they call me two or three times every single day. It's getting quite annoying.

This “Social housing agency” keeps ringing me loads of times daily, even if I just ignore the call. I told them flat out that I’m not renting anywhere and I have no clue how they got my number. Asked them to take me off their list. They just ended the call on me, really uncalled for.

Kept ringing but hung up every time I didn’t answer properly. Definitely spam. I’ve blocked the number now.

They claimed they were calling on behalf of the council, but when I asked more questions, it turned out they weren’t connected at all. They seemed to know quite a bit about me though, which was pretty suspicious. Don’t really know where they pulled that info from.

They said they were a local repair firm that was working for my council.

Got a call from a woman in Bolton who said she was from Clearcomfa[###]. While on the call, I tried looking up the company online but nada. Told her I couldn't find any info, and she actually tried to justify why I couldn’t find it - bit cheeky, right? Then she asked for my National Insurance number, but I told her I needed her company details first. She said she'd send them over on WhatsApp but kept pushing for my NI number anyway. Lesson learnt, folks - it’s that time again, watch out for scams! Merry Christmas and be careful out there!

Got a call earlier from someone saying they worked for a housing repairs company. They actually told me a person’s entire name and address. That can’t be GDPR safe, can it?

I've been getting these annoying calls all night - about 7 calls yesterday evening and one early this morning. They somehow knew my name but had my address completely wrong. The caller was trying to convince me to sell my house, which is just bizarre. Honestly, this kind of thing needs to be stopped somehow.

I got a call from 01204 200261 claiming to be social housing or something, but that felt off. The number is actually from Bolton, and that’s like a 4-hour drive from here! Quite dodgy if you ask me.

I got a call from a lady claiming she represented the tenants housing association. She said she was just checking if we had any issues with plumbing, drains, electrics or whatever. When I asked her which council or housing association exactly she was from and told her we didn't have any problems, she just muttered thanks and hung up. Really makes you wonder where they even find our names and numbers! She sounded pretty convincing too, I reckon some people might easily fall for it.

they were asking for my ni number plus other personal stuff, which made me really suspicious.

Somebody called me sayin they’re from South Africa and help sort out repairs really fast. They wanted my NI number, address, and the name of my council, but I never gave anything out. They kept ringing nonstop until I had to block them. The woman mentioned their site’s clearcomsa, but it looked dodgy and not secure at all.

Has anyone else here picked up a call and just got a delivery message, but when you try to reply or follow up, there’s no one at the other end? It’s really confusing!
