Got one of those silent calls again, it's not the first time either.

I recently received a pre-recorded call claiming to be from Telepro Marketing, discussing medical pendants. Intriguingly, I’ve also encountered calls from the number 01208 227338. It doesn’t stop there, as they seem to be quite active, with another number, 01208 227337, reaching out about will writing and funeral plans. I’ve tried other numbers like 01208 227335, 01208 227336, and 01208 227340, but encountered a message stating that the service was not accessible. Moreover, calls from the range 01302 492730 to 01302 492733 have been regarding driveways. Oddly enough, the numbers immediately preceding and following this sequence have the same disconnection message, raising suspicions that these might all be part of a scam. Exercise caution if you come across similar calls!

I got a call from one of those medical alert con artists offering a free pendant and wanting my name. I gave them a piece of my mind! It’s ridiculous that these scammers aren’t being targeted by the police when they’re preying on ordinary folks like us. The Police ought to focus on protecting honest British people instead of wasting time catering to minority groups!!!

01208227339 - Wow, finally got a ring from these lot and honestly, it’s a relief. Had nonstop calls about loft insulation for ages now. Guess if you ring this number, you can maybe get them to stop calling and actually talk with someone about it. Proper annoying otherwise!

On Tuesday 5th April, I got a call from 01208227339 and then another one came through the very next day, the 6th. The first call was from a bloke speaking with an English accent, leaving a voicemail about “medical aids” and also dropped “medical alert” into the message. Yesterday, though, they phoned but didn't leave anything. Pretty sure it’s a scam!

I asked him who exactly he was trying to reach but he dodged my question. When I kept pressing, he just ended the call. I’ve blocked the number now.

Had this call about some "Free Medical Pendant" rubbish. They immediately started asking how old I was, so I fibbed a bit. When they wanted to know about any health problems, I made something up. Told them I reckon they’d got the wrong number, but they weren’t having any of it. Ended up hanging up on them.

A guy rang me up real polite sayin he was with some medical alert company and that I could get a free two week trial on their pendant thing. They asked if I was over 50, which I am. But then they said it was like 99p a day afterwards. Sounds dodgy to me, like they're just tryna grab your bank info. I'd say just end the call and never share your details.

I received a call from someone with a British accent, claiming to be affiliated with a Medical Response Centre. They mentioned I was eligible for a medical pendant, but it quickly became apparent that they had no idea who I was. It was clear this was a sales pitch or an attempt to collect my personal details. Take my word for it, it's best to steer clear and not engage with them.
