Just got a call from 0333 014 0000, turns out it’s Gamma Telecom. Anyone else had calls from them?

This was a total medical scam, they said my files stated I was entitled to a pendant for free, but they were just fishing for my personal info.

I just got one of those annoying recorded calls, sounded really genuine though. They were offering a free medical alert pendant or something like that. Proper nuisance!

It really came across as if it was my doctor calling, but I’m sure it was a scam.

Got a call from 01208227128 saying they were a doc from Bodmin? Nope, sounds like they’re faking it, not buying it at all.

I got a call from a bloke with a really polished, sophisticated tone, saying I could qualify for a free medical alert device. He asked me to verify some details, starting with if I was older than 50. I chose not to respond and told him I couldn’t be sure he wasn’t trying to scam me. After that, he was quite courteous, said thanks for my time and ended the call. Honestly, it was very convincing and I can see how someone might fall for it. Just be careful out there!

No idea what their name was, I just ended the call straight away when they started talking about me being "approved for a medical alert pendant" or something like that. Absolutely no way I was gonna let that drag on into a proper chat.

Does this ever stop? I’m on the do-not-call list and my number isn’t even listed. I’ll try using 1572 to block the next time this polished caller rings, but honestly, that doesn't do much for others getting the same rubbish. So annoying!

This number was unknown to me, so I just let it ring through to voicemail. Since there wasn’t any message left, I decided to block it.

I encountered a dodgy individual trying to peddle medical alert pendants to vulnerable individuals, particularly those living alone with disabilities. He bombarded my mother with an array of medical inquiries, which raised all the red flags. Without hesitation, I cut off communication and reported this charlatan to the authorities.

My landline rang and it was clearly one of those recorded calls. I tried to say something but the message just looped from the start again. It was about some medical alert. I just hung up straight away.

Thought it was my doctor ringing back, but then this number started going on about some kind of free medical pendant. They mentioned a membership thing, but hinted there might be a fee, which made me a bit wary. The whole chat felt more like a sales pitch, with questions about if I'd give a testimonial or how it helps family feel safer, even talking about emergency response times. In the end, they gave up pretty quickly when I didn’t bite. Definitely seemed fishy to me.

Got a call from someone selling a health alert device. They were really polite and started by asking if I’m over 50 before jumping into some personal health stuff.

Got a call offering free medical pendants for disabled folks living by themselves. They said they were from Medical Alert Services, supposedly based in Dorset, but the number was actually from Bodmin. They cover a big area though. When I phoned them back, there was a homemade voicemail from Tele Pro Marketing about the Medical Alert Pendant. The guy seemed to have personal details and honestly, if he knows who lives alone, that’s pretty worrying and should be taken seriously.

I’ve known about my diabetes for a while now. Considering how many people in the UK have it, could just be a coincidence. I already wear a medic alert bracelet anyway.

This bloke kept asking me loads of personal stuff and what kind of benefits I receive? I told him my number’s unlisted and shouldn’t be out there like that. I’m definitely gonna report this call, seems like a total scam to me.

Some bloke rang saying I might be entitled to a medical pendant based on “their” info. When I asked who he was and where he got my number from, he just hung up on me! Bit cheeky, he also tried to find out my age.

Some bloke rang me saying I’m eligible for a medical alert pendant, or something like that, based on their records. Wouldn’t say how they even got my number though. I've got a call blocker so I’m baffled how he managed to get through. Anyone know who I should report this to?

I got a phone call from someone pushing a medical alert pendant, saying I might qualify based on stuff like my age and health. They kept asking for personal info but when I asked them for any specifics about me, they couldn’t give a single detail. Felt like a total scam trying to trick me into giving up info.

A guy rang up claiming that, based on their info, I might be eligible for a medical alert pendant and asked if I was over 50. I told him I wasn’t interested straight away. He didn’t push me or anything, just said sorry for bothering me and wished me a nice day. While he was polite, I still had my doubts about the call being legit. By the way, I'm on the TPS list but it doesn’t seem to stop these calls anymore. I’m from the North Norfolk region.
