Got a call from Platinum supermarket, and it felt off - just trying to get me to answer a bunch of questions. Definitely seems like a scam to me.

The caller spoke with a thick African accent. When I asked about 'Platinum Supermarket', they just got quiet. A quick Google search brought up an address for it.

Just like everyone else said, they gave me the usual rubbish and the same old story. The best thing to do, especially if you’re a BT customer, is ring 1572 and block the number on your blacklist. Honestly, it actually does the trick.

On the 2nd of September around 9:15 in the morning, someone rang claiming to be from Platinum Supermarket. I told them straight away that I’d never come across that company before. They attempted to stick to their script, but after I kept telling them I didn’t know them, they eventually gave up and ended the call.

I got a call from a guy with an Asian accent doing some sort of survey. I told him my number’s registered with the TPS so I shouldn’t be getting any random calls.

Got a call from a bloke with a strong Indian accent, said his name was Michael. He kept asking for my missus, and when I asked why he was ringing, he told me he was from Platinum Supermarket. I asked where he found my number, and he said it was in their database. When I pressed him on how it ended up there and asked to chat with his Data Protection Officer, he just hung up on me.

So, this just happened to me - I got a call from a bloke named ‘Richard’ saying he was calling about benefits. I just cut him off and hung up. Then, he calls me right back asking why I ended the call! I told him straight up he was being dishonest. We had a bit of a back and forth, where he actually called me stupid! So I told him I was about to hang up, and then did exactly that. You won’t believe it, he called yet again! This time he accused me of having no manners, so I hung up for good. Honestly, these guys are something else.

I just don’t get why someone would call you, stay silent, and then just hang up. It’s so frustrating! The only upside is that they get billed for the call and we don’t have to pay a thing. Honestly, makes no sense. -Caller: No clue

Between the 4th and 7th of June 2019, I got called 7 times from this number. The people speaking didn’t sound English and claimed they were from My Benefits, wanting to ask me some questions. I’m pretty sure it’s just a scam.

Got a call from someone with an Indian/Asian accent asking for a Mr something or other, but that’s definitely not me. Told them they’re breaking the law by cold calling, especially since we’re on the TPS, and warned I’d report the number. They started shouting down the phone! Naturally, I shouted back a bit. We’ve had loads of calls like this, each time someone looking for different names - seems like they’re just trying to fish out info or something. Proper shady behaviour if you ask me.

I keep getting calls on my work Skype number and I’m unable to block it. Yesterday and this morning, some guy with an Asian accent called asking strange questions, so I just hung up. They’ve rung again just now but luckily I’m working from home today, so I decided to mess about and made a weird noise down the line - let's wait and see if they bother calling again.

Today, 7 June 2019, I answered the phone at my elderly mum’s place. A caller with a strong Indian accent was asking me to confirm the house number, address and postcode. I told them a few times that we don’t want this kind of call and that I have no clue who they are. I mentioned that my mum’s number is registered to block unknown callers, but the person insisted they weren’t doing anything illegal. They kept pushing and then asked for our age range. I refused to share any personal info, and they eventually hung up.

Got a call today, 7 June, from someone with a strong Indian accent, which made it hard to follow. I told them this number belongs to an elderly person and we have it on a do-not-call list, so these calls shouldn't be happening. The caller sounded nice enough but kept pushing. He claimed he wasn’t doing anything illegal, but never really explained why he needed me to verify the address and approximate age. When I asked him to take the number off his list, he just ended the call.

I told him I’d already spoken to someone earlier this week and asked them to stop calling me. He tried to argue a bit but ended up just hanging up.

I got a call from a woman, sounded like she had an Indian or maybe Asian accent, claiming to be from this “Platinum Supermarket”. Thing is, I’m on the TPS list, so I wasn’t expecting calls like this.
She started asking me to verify my name, date of birth, full address and postcode.
When I tried to find out what she was offering, she mentioned a £25 voucher.

They told me they never phone customers like that, so it was likely a scam.
