I encountered a rather bothersome individual of Asian descent, their English was quite difficult to comprehend.

I could hear a lot of background chatter, almost like I was connected to a call centre. Nobody addressed me directly, so I decided to hang up. It appears that others have also had interactions with this number.

I encountered an Asian gentleman who had quite a struggle with English, claiming to be representing a Life Insurance firm. I suggested he ring back once he’s improved his English skills! Total fraud, if you ask me!

Said he was calling from Citizens Advice, but that's a load of rubbish. I ended the call right away.

I picked up the call and the chap on the other end claimed to be from Citizens Advice. He mumbled on about debts, but I assured him I was in the clear. After that, he abruptly cut the line. Definitely a dodgy call—best to steer clear and not engage!

I didn't recognise the number, as it wasn't saved in my phonebook. Having seen the feedback from others, I've decided to block it. Cheers!

Received two calls from this number, but I chose not to pick up since I didn’t recognise it. I reckon if it were something crucial, they would’ve left a message. Having seen the feedback here, I'm leaning towards blocking them!

Claimed to be a debt collection firm.

After I greeted them three times without a single response, a woman’s recorded voice piped up to say goodbye, and just like that, the call was cut off. Quite bizarre, really!

I picked up the call after hearing a few clicks, and a chap on the other end greeted me, asking if he could have a word with someone. Before he could even get his sentence out, I cut him off, saying he took his sweet time, and hung up.

I received a call from someone claiming to be with the Citizens Advice Centre, offering assistance with my financial troubles. However, as our conversation progressed, it became quite apparent that it was all a ruse.

I received a call from what appeared to be a foreign call centre, purporting to represent the Citizens Advice Bureau. I've since blocked the number, but it makes one ponder whether CAB is aware of these fraudulent calls circulating. Quite concerning, isn't it?

They rang me, but as soon as I picked up, they just ended the call! Straight to the blocked list they go.

Persistent nuisance! This number has dialled me a staggering seven times—four calls on one day and three today alone. I've taken the liberty of blocking them!

I received a rather concerning call that claimed to be from Citizens Advice regarding an alleged debt of mine, using my complete name. Given that I’m signed up with the Telephone Preference Service, it raises red flags about the legitimacy of this call—definitely sounds like a scam to me, especially since I have no outstanding debts!

They addressed me by my complete name and claimed to be representatives from a government debt collection agency concerning an overdue payment. When I informed them that I didn’t owe anything, they abruptly terminated the call.

Absolutely outrageous! If you've fallen victim to their con tricks, make sure you cut off all contact and alert the authorities right away! These lowlifes need to be brought to justice.

When I picked up the phone, I greeted with, "Hello, [firstname] here." To my surprise, I was met with the barely coherent voice of a man who sounded Asian asking, "Is this Mr [firstname]?" I decided to end the call right then and there.

Cheers for the heads-up! I've gone ahead and added the number to my block list.

Initially, they introduced themselves as representatives from Citizens Advice, and then proceeded to suggest that they could offer assistance regarding my financial debts. The funny thing is, I’m not actually in any debt at all!

Had a chap with an Indian accent ring me up, claiming to be from some government body, trying to persuade me they could assist in wiping out debts of as much as £64,000.

I received a call from someone claiming to be with Citizens Advice. When I requested more details, they mentioned that they were affiliated with the organisation. However, when I pressed for information regarding the purpose of the call, they abruptly ended the conversation. Very odd behaviour, if you ask me!

Received a call from a dodgy call centre in India. Their accent was absolutely dreadful. They had the audacity to claim I owed money to the government. Knew straight away it was a scam call, so I didn't hesitate to block the number.

Received a call with no one on the other end. According to what others have shared, it's best to just blacklist this number.

Concerning that so-called "unsecured debt"! Right, I believe that when pigs fly!

Received a call from someone with a foreign accent, purporting to be from "Citizens Advice." They were inquiring about a debt I've never heard of. Once I informed them that I have no such debt, they abruptly disconnected. It's quite clear they were fishing for personal information to scam people out of their money.

There was nothing but quiet. I waited for a few moments, then decided to capture a quick 'farewell'.
