The call ended before I could even get a word in and no message was left. My phone provider flagged it as possible spam, so I didn’t pick up straight away. If it was a legit call, surely they’d have dropped a voicemail?

Got a call from a number I didn’t know. Normally I just ignore calls from strangers and don’t bother ringing back. What if it’s some scam or something?

A survey firm called me asking about my thoughts after I applied for a developer job in water services. They said it was for OFWAT. Nothing suspicious, just gathering feedback really.

Got a call from someone mentioning off Watch and the water company in Surrey, somewhere near Sutton. They said I’d rung up a company called Deborah, but I hadn’t even ended the call yet. Quite confusing!

Got a call on my home phone from someone asking for a person who doesn’t actually live at my address. They claimed to be from offwat and said they’d spoken to someone at this number back in August. I told them I’m the only one here and have lived here for the past three years.

I usually ignore calls from numbers I don’t know and always check them online first. Recently, I needed to use UU, but they ended up sending their own surveys anyway. Good thing I didn’t pick up!

I didn’t know the number at first so I was a bit cautious and ready to end the call quickly if anything felt off or they asked for personal details. It came across as a proper follow-up, with the caller saying they were from BMG Research, following a recent chat I had with the water company. They just ran through about five or six usual customer satisfaction questions, nothing too exciting.

I got a call from BMG Research the other day, they were doing a survey for Ofwat about my recent dealings with a Water company. The person on the phone had my details spot on about my work stuff with Severn Trent Water. They just asked a few quick questions about my experience and didn't ask for any personal info. Nice and straightforward.

Got a call claiming it was a ‘survey’ from United Utilities. They even mentioned when I called UU earlier this month and had my name, address, and phone number sorted. I don’t usually pick up unknown numbers but answered this time - now I’m convinced it was a scam! I phoned UU afterwards and they said it wasn’t them at all. They advised me to contact 101, so I reported it to the police. Honestly, don’t pick up that number, it’s definitely a SCAM.

Someone called me claiming they were carrying out a survey about water and sewage firms, saying the findings would be sent to Offwat because of all the issues these companies have. I mentioned a leak I’d noticed and reported to Portsmouth Water already. They then asked me a few questions and requested if they could email me some details, which I refused. After that, they wanted to carry on the call - I agreed reluctantly but wasn’t comfortable, so I just hung up.

Went straight to this site to look up the number. I didn’t pick up, but the caller left a voicemail. Not sure they meant to? They kept saying “gap 2 houses, gap 2 houses” and I swear I heard a kid say “dad” in the background, plus maybe a TV on? So I'm guessing these calls come from someone’s house. Still confused about what “gap 2 houses” is supposed to mean though?

I received a rather peculiar call from a chap with an awkward way of speaking, claiming to represent some 'official body'. He insisted on discussing my so-called 'recent communication with Severn Trent'. I had to inform him that I hadn't reached out to them at all. He simply apologised for the inconvenience and I promptly ended the call. Quite an odd encounter, really!

01212601019 rang at around 6.55pm this evening, a woman claimed she was doing an Ofcom survey regarding my water provider. She actually knew my full name! I just made an excuse and ended the call, then blocked the number. Not sure what their real intention was :(

I picked up and a lady said she was from Ofwat doing a survey about my water provider. I explained we don’t use a water company since we get water from a private source - she seemed a bit confused. I ended the call there. Might be a dodgy call, so I’ve blocked the number now.

My call blocker picked it up, but the bloke gave his name as Jumaani. From the number, I reckon it's one of those dodgy scammers.

Got a call from Ofwat about Affinity Water, but they wanted to talk to my husband. They wouldn’t tell me anything and kept saying they’d call him instead. I told them the number they had was mine, the one who originally got in touch with Affinity. She sounded annoyed, like I was being difficult! Ended up hanging up on her and blocking the number. Honestly, Affinity Water shouldn’t be handing out our info to research firms without telling us first.

Got a call from a market research company working for Ofwat doing a survey about my recent call with Affinity Water. Asked where they got my number from and she said Affinity gave it to them. She even knew the exact date of my call with Affinity. The questions were pretty simple and I didn’t have to share any private info.

01212601019 keeps calling me nonstop and as soon as I pick up, they just hang up straight away. I tried answering again and told them I was running a survey about water services and my recent chat with the water company. I’m registered on the TPS, so they really shouldn’t be bothering me like this. It’s getting seriously annoying now.

This morning I picked up and there was a woman speaking in what sounded like an Indian language. I think she was chatting to someone else when she noticed I answered, then switched to broken English saying she was from OFWAT doing a survey. It felt a bit dodgy to me, so I just told her "not interested" and hung up.

Recently, I undertook some repairs on a damaged sewer, which my insurance company sorted out for me. Yesterday, I received a call from this number, but since I didn’t know it, I chose not to pick up. However, I decided to investigate and discovered that quite a few others have experienced similar calls after dealing with issues linked to water. Quite curious, isn’t it?

Got a call from Ofwat about a market survey. They didn’t ask for any personal details. The poll was quick and focused on my recent dealings with Cambridge Water. The person calling already had my name and phone number and knew I’d contacted the water company, even on the right day.

Sounded like some young lass working in a call centre, I overheard her chatting with mates just before she called me. She said she was from Ofwat and asked if I’d do a quick survey, said it’d only take five mins. I just told her no thanks and to not call me again. Now we wait and see what happens next.

Someone called me saying they were from Ofwat too. I just ended the call straight away. Seeing loads of others below saying the same thing might make you think it's legit, but if you keep reading, there’s a comment where the caller warned they’d disconnect the broadband. So yeah, definitely a scam.

Somebody called saying they were doing a survey about how happy I am with my water supplier. They spoke so fast I had to ask them to slow down so I could catch what they were saying. After they repeated it, I told them I wasn't bothered to share my views on my water co and ended the call. I then went back to pacing up and down the stairs, which was honestly a bit more useful!

Looks like they’re still going strong judging by the comments here. I just got a call from a number that said it was London, and they rattled off some scripted nonsense I couldn’t make heads or tails of. Then they asked for ‘just 5 minutes’ of my time, and I just flat-out said NO and hung up. I’m really puzzled why these lot keep pestering when there’s no obvious way they make money. Feels like some dodgy survey scam trying to trick people into giving up info. Definitely not worth wasting time on. I’ve blocked that number so they won’t get through to me again.

Unknown number. I’m (1) blocking this contact & (2) considering it suspicious! This number (3) rang my new phone number, which only 4 mates know, (4) and it was (5) at 7.45am on a Sunday! Also, (6) if this is connected to me reaching out to a water company? I definitely haven’t done that!! (7) And if it’s supposed to be Thames Water or any other UK water company, why on earth would they call someone over 500 miles away in another country? Seems dodgy to me!
