01209707818 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01209707818 👆 is reported as a persistent scam number targeting primarily older and vulnerable individuals with unsolicited calls offering “free” medical alert pendants. Callers, often identifying as “John” from a supposed Medical Alert Centre, ask personal and health-related questions yet refuse to disclose how they obtained contact details. Many report abrupt hang-ups, evasiveness, and silent calls. The operation appears designed to fish for sensitive information or push costly subscriptions under false pretences, exploiting trust in medical services. Blocking the number is often ineffective due to frequent spoofing and use of multiple lines. Victims are strongly advised not to engage, never share personal data, and to report calls via official fraud channels and their local MP to help combat this ongoing problem.

I was approached with an offer for a complimentary medical watch and pendant, claiming I'd met the qualifications. However, they then proceeded to inquire about my age. If they were aware I qualified, wouldn’t they have that information already? Quite puzzling, isn’t it?

I got a call from someone called John from Medical Alert (01209707818) trying to sell me a “free” pendant thing. When I said no thanks, he just hung up on me in a really rude way. Seemed pretty suspicious to me. Since I’d just been to the doctor the day before for blood tests and was waiting on results, it made me worry that it was connected somehow, like they were trying to scare me into thinking I needed something serious. No idea what kind of scam this is, but from what I saw, it felt pretty dodgy and worrying.

Just got a ring from someone named John claiming to be from the "UK Medical Alert Centre," trying to sell me a free medical alert pendant. He then asked if I was over 50, which I chose not to answer and politely turned down the deal. Not sure if it’s legit or a con, but I’m leaning towards a scam because when I called the number back, it connected me to a telemarketing firm.

He was saying that I might qualify for a free medical alert gadget and wanted to check if I was over 50 - clearly, he had no clue about me. Felt like a sales pitch at best, or maybe even a scam.

Since I know about medical alarms, I told him I wasn’t interested and ended the call.

I had a rather similar experience just now! Received a call regarding a medical alert pendant, and they claimed that the information had been shared with them by another firm. However, the moment I mentioned this was a potential violation of GDPR and requested the name of the company that allegedly passed on my details, they promptly hung up. Quite the shady business, if you ask me!

He was touting some sort of complimentary medical pendant, but I was curious about what else was included in the deal. After a rather long-winded sales pitch, he finally slipped in a mention of a minor subscription fee. I pressed him for details, wanting to know just how minor it was. Finally, after quite a bit of dancing around the subject, he revealed it would set me back 99p a day. That was the last straw, so I ended the call.

Could it be that someone in the healthcare profession is sharing details without consent? Recently, I received a call from this number claiming they thought my mother could benefit from a medical alert pendant, inquiring about her disabilities.

Quite suspicious, if you ask me!
