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.

Beware of dodgy callers! Absolutely refrain from sharing any of your personal information with them. It's a complete trap!

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.

Is this endless? I've kept my number private and am on the Telephone Preference Service register. I'll have to resort to using 1572 to block this smooth operator from getting through again, but it doesn’t aid anyone else facing the same nuisance. How frustrating!

The number was unfamiliar to me, so I decided to let it ring through to voicemail. They didn’t leave a message, so I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number entirely.

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.

This number has been ringing me nonstop all week, but when I pick up, there's just silence on the other end.

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.

I came across a right charmer regaling a story involving a medical pendant. I have a strong suspicion that it’s merely a ploy to fish for personal details. My response could very well have put a dampener on his day!

I received a call even though my home phone is on the Telephone Preference Service list. The caller was probing for personal details, such as my age and any health issues. It seems they were pushing some sort of device for phone assistance. Quite bothersome, really!

This chap rang me up claiming, based on “their” files, that I was eligible for a medical pendant! However, the moment I inquired who he was and where he’d got my digits from, he promptly hung up. Quite the cheeky fellow, he even had the audacity to ask my age!

I received a call from someone claiming that I’m eligible for a medical alert pendant based on "their" records. When I probed for the source of my phone number, he refused to disclose any information. I find it baffling how he managed to bypass my call blocker! Could anyone suggest the proper channels to report this incident?

I received a dodgy sales call that was clearly a scam, aiming to pry into my personal details like my age and health issues. They claimed to have 'information' on me that suggested I might be eligible for some sort of medical alert pendant. However, when I challenged them, they were unable to provide any specifics about my personal information. Quite suspicious, to say the least!

I received a call today from a chap who claimed that their records indicated I was eligible for a medical pendant, specifically asking if I was over the age of 50. I told him I wasn't keen on the offer, and to his credit, he didn't push it any further. He was quite courteous, even apologising for disturbing me and wishing me a lovely day afterwards! However, I can’t shake the feeling that the call wasn’t entirely on the up and up. We’ve also signed up with the Telephone Preference Service, which doesn’t seem to make much of a difference anymore. This happened here in North Norfolk.
