4 yearsI didn’t answer the call because the number didn’t look familiar. After letting it ring about five times, I just ended the call. Then I looked it up on a reverse phone site and it seems like a scam number. If it was really important, they could’ve left a voicemail. I’m gonna block this number for good.4 yearsJust got a call from some muppets trying to get my card info. Total scammers!4 yearsTypical scam call, nothing new really.4 yearsI picked up the call, but no one said a word on the other end.4 yearsFor anyone suggesting to get in touch with Action Fraud, honestly, it’s a waste of time. I once tried reporting a scam to them and they just recorded my complaint without taking any real action to stop it. Feels like they don’t do much beyond logging stuff.Action Fraud4 yearsWhen I answered saying "Hello," it immediately seemed like a call centre, but the call just dropped right after that.4 yearsGot a call from some overseas #### on the boiler scam number, so I’ve gone ahead and blocked it! Crazy how persistent they are!!!!!!4 yearsA man with a foreign accent called, said my complete name, and then just ended the call.4 yearsGot a call from a woman who was asking for someone with a name quite close to mine, but not exactly. I told her she must have the wrong person. Feels dodgy to me, especially since I'm on the TPS and my number isn't listed anywhere. Pretty sure it was one of those scam calls.Telephone Preference Service4 yearsGot a call at about 5 in the evening yesterday, 20th October 2022, from 01216 674172. The number looks like it’s from Birmingham but I wouldn’t be surprised if they were faking it and ringing from some other place entirely.Birmingham4 yearsAnswered and there was nothing but silence, then they hung up after about 10 seconds.4 yearsShe told me that was my name, I guess, and then I asked what she wanted. Next thing, she just ended the call.4 yearsI've gone ahead and blocked that number, it was definitely one of those boiler scam calls. ####4 yearsI wasnt home when they rang me but now i recognise that number, thanks!4 yearsGot a call from this number but didn't answer since I didn't know who it was, they didn't leave any voicemail either. Seems dodgy so I just blocked it.4 yearsThese scammers have been ringin me nonstop for weeks now, honestly, I’ve no idea why the police haven’t done anything about it yet. It’s driving me mad!4 yearsI got a call about some boiler cover, and they already had my name and where I live. The number was 01216674172.4 yearsTotal scam, just rubbish chat about my boiler for gas. Don’t trust it one bit.4 yearsTotal rip-off artists, watch out!4 yearsGot a call about my boiler but we dont even use gas here, so it's clearly a scam. No chance I have a gas boiler at this place.4 yearsThey tried to scam me about a boiler, but I don’t even have a gas boiler in my place.4 yearsI keep calling 01216674172 but there’s never been anyone to pick up. Bit strange really.4 yearsGot a call from this rude woman pretending to be from some boiler replacement company. Honestly, it was obvious she just wanted to get hold of your cash and bank info. These cold calling businesses should be shut down for good, their workers are nothing but pests. Total scammers, really.4 yearsI got a call from a woman about some kind of boiler insurance. She seemed like she was just reading something out loud without really knowing what it meant. She named a company, but I can’t recall which one. When I told her I’d never come across them before, she just hung up. Felt a bit dodgy to me, if I’m honest.4 yearsThey asked for my missus, but I could tell it was dodgy straight away. I wonder how on earth these con artists get hold of my phone and address? It's a mystery!4 yearsOur boiler’s warranty had already expired, and since we don’t even have one, I just hung up the phone.4 yearsSince I didn’t recognise the number, I just ignored the call.4 yearsGot a call claiming my boiler needed servicing, but it was just a scam trying to get my bank info. Not falling for that.4 yearsNo idea what they were after this time, just got another quiet call that didn't go anywhere. Really annoying to have these pointless rings. Honestly, find a proper job instead of bothering folks!!!4 yearsEven though I’ve put this number on my block list on my landline, it keeps ringing and just says ‘blocked’ when it shows up on the display.4 yearsWatch out, these are really bad crooks trying to scam you. Stay safe!4 yearsHad a bloke ring me up today, he already had my name and postcode, then asked me to verify which bank I use for my direct debit for boiler insurance. Just to warn everyone, this is a total scam - I’ve never set up a direct debit for any boiler cover.4 yearsI picked up but the line was dead silent, so I’m guessing it was probably a scam call.4 yearsI got a call from someone with a really nice tone, who started by asking if I was doing alright. Then he went on about whether my boiler had been serviced properly. When I asked him to clarify which boiler, he said it was my gas boiler. I found it quite amusing to tell him that here in Lochaber, we don’t even have a gas supply. That’s when he just cut the call straight away.Lochaber4 yearskeeps ringing my phone over and over you can tell its some call centre but nobody ever says a word gets really frustrating after a while4 yearsThey claimed they’d installed our boiler but I told them they hadn’t, then they just hung up - classic scam.4 yearsGot a call about some boiler grant or something, but then they started pushing me to buy shares. Total joke, bunch of muppets.4 yearsReceived a dodgy call purporting to be from British Gas. Definitely not legit!British Gas4 yearsGot a call from some bloke saying my boiler cover was being dropped to £24.99. After that, he handed me over to a polite Indian woman who then started asking which bank I use for direct debit. I told her I’d ring the company myself and then I just ended the call!India4 yearsGot a call saying my boiler service was about to expire. Thing is, I don’t even own a boiler. When I told them I had no idea what they meant, the person just ended the call immediately. Total scam, watch out!4 yearsI got a call from a calm sounding woman with an Asian accent about some boiler insurance contract we don’t have with Glow Worm anymore. She asked for the 3 digit code on my card but wouldn’t say which account she meant. It felt pretty dodgy so I told her to email me the info. No email came, but she phoned back again. I confronted her about it being a possible scam and she denied it quietly, then said she’d take our info off their list after hearing the suspicion in my voice. At first she seemed quite convincing, but I reckon someone less careful could easily get caught out.Glow Worm4 yearsSome woman rang me up, attempting this dodgy Aussie accent, asking if I'd gotten my boiler serviced and whether I owned the house. I asked her which company she was with, but she said that was none of my concern. I told her the feeling was mutual and then she just ended the call.4 yearsSome lady rang up trying to pull off an Aussie accent, asking if I’d got my boiler serviced and if I owned the house. I asked her which company she was from, and she just said that was none of my business. I replied with “same here” and then she quickly ended the call.4 yearsTotal waste of time and pretty risky too. Stay alert!4 yearsMy landline got a couple of calls from this number, but each time, no one spoke and then they just ended the call. I've decided to block it now.4 yearsHad a call about my boiler, sounded like one of those dodgy scams. Honestly, don’t hand over any of your bank info to them!4 yearsThese fraudsters really need to be shut down.4 yearsGot a call from this number saying they wanted to renew my boiler warranty. Told them my boiler is well over ten years old, plus I already have a service agreement with a local firm. Seemed a bit dodgy to me.4 yearsWatch out, these are really dodgy scammers. Stay safe folks!4 yearsI've been inundated with calls from this number over the last several days. Every time I answered, it would go completely silent. However, today was different; I actually spoke to someone who, I suspect, wasn’t from around these parts. Curiously, they mentioned my boiler was due for a service and even quoted my monthly payments, before asking for my bank details to secure the payment. Naturally, I declined. I then reached out directly to my boiler servicing company and discovered this is a scam, as they typically send reminders via post. Moreover, I've noticed that every time I pick up the phone from this number, there's always a strange pause that feels off.4 yearsSome bloke called up saying my boiler warranty was up. That’s mad cos the thing’s a decade old. Ours is on a forever plan that just renews every year without us lifting a finger. Sounds like one of those dodgy scam calls to me. Or, as my missus rightly said, total scumbags!4 yearsGot a call two times but just hung up without saying a word.4 yearsGot another call after a silent one earlier. Was about a boiler warranty. He had no clue what brand my boiler was, and didn’t seem to realise ours already has a 10-year warranty. I just told him to bugger off.4 yearsGot calls from some dodgy number twice today, no message left on my answerphone. If they were legit, they’d leave a proper message, right? Honestly, they should find an honest job instead of trying to scam folks. Proper waste of time.Pond Life4 yearsA woman rang up wanting to talk to my husband about renewing some boiler warranty. She already knew his first name and our address which was a bit creepy. When I told her I didn’t trust the reason for her call, she honestly sounded surprised. She never actually said which company she was from and just kept asking to speak to my husband. Once I said he wasn’t around, she just ended the call.4 yearsI answered the call but there was just silence on the other end.4 yearsGot a call where no one spoke a word, just silence on the other end. Really odd experience.4 yearsWatch out for these nasty scammers, they’re nothing but trouble.4 yearsSo I got a call from a woman about my boiler warranty, and she somehow already had my info, even knew it was about a year old. She double-checked my name, address, and postcode. Then some bloke rang who just dropped the call, and after that the line manager phoned. When I mentioned I’d done a bit of digging and knew it was a scam, she laughed it off. I asked what brand of boiler it was and when it got installed, and she just ended the call. Honestly, I’m fuming!4 yearsAbsolute scumbags, and it’s disgraceful how the lazy UK government just lets them carry on. They’re the sort of people that need to be cracked down on, like the pests they truly are and wiped out completely.UK4 yearsI received a call that was utterly silent. After holding for around ten seconds, I chucked in a little quip, "We can play this game - your move," and just like that, the call ended abruptly.4 yearsSo I told them I was aware my boiler warranty was up, but I have a yearly maintenance deal instead, and they just cut me off straight away.4 yearsWatch out, this person is definitely a scammer and could be really dangerous.4 yearsGot a call about a boiler warranty I don't even have, and as soon as I replied with "Oh no," they just hung up on me. Total scam!4 yearsBlimey, there are a right load of time-wasters employing this dodgy number!4 yearsPeople who just waste your time are a real pain.4 yearsGot a call with no one speaking on the other end. So weird!4 yearsI've been receiving calls from this lot who seem to be associated with a dodgy trading site. They keep pestering individuals who sign up, urging them to complete their registration. Absolutely fraudulent!4 yearsI accidentally put my info into a dodgy energy comparison website, and shortly after got a call pushing loads of insurance deals, including some boiler cover for £19.99 a month. Then not long after, another call came through from a firm trying to offer an extension on a boiler warranty I don't even have. Watch out, everyone, these con artists are just fishing for your banking info!Woopsie4 yearsGot a call saying my boiler's warranty had run out - mind you, the thing's 37 years old, a proper classic! They asked if I was with Lloyds, Barclays or TSB, then tried to sell me insurance for £24.99 and wanted my card details. I told them to send the paperwork through since they already had my address, and then they just hung up. Looks like a scam trying to get your bank info. Anyone else, be cautious - if it sounds too good to be true, it usually is!LloydsBarclays TSB4 yearsI put my number on some dodgy trading website by mistake. Right away, at like 10:45pm, they started ringing me. I didn’t pick up at first, but they kept ringing around 5 or 6 times. When I finally answered, they asked for my card details saying I needed to activate my account. Pretty shady if you ask me.4 yearsGot a call from someone pushing a boiler warranty. Told them I wasn’t interested. Seems dodgy to me, like they’re fishing for your bank info or card details. Watch out, could easily be a scam!Submit Your Own Report (0121 667 4172)
