Rather tenacious, this unknown individual keeps trying to chat with me about my utility costs. It's quite peculiar!

I've never really dabbled in the lottery before, but these con artists are insisting I've bagged the top prize!

Phoned at 1pm on Thursday, 22nd April, but didn’t bother to leave a message.

They persist in ringing me even though I’ve put them on the blocked list.

Received a call claiming I’d won complimentary lottery tickets. I swiftly terminated the conversation.

I received a call from this number, and my phone flagged it as a possible scam, so I chose not to pick up. I've since blocked the number.

I haven't a clue. The call ended as soon as I picked up.

Received a call offering me a £20 bundle of complimentary lottery tickets. Politely declined, and they promptly ended the call. Definitely dodgy characters!

I’ve been receiving calls on both my home phone and my mobile nearly every single day, and at times, it’s multiple times a day. They don’t bother to leave any messages. I’ve finally decided to block the number!

I've had this number 01217261690 ring me thrice in a single day! I'm seriously contemplating ditching my landline altogether.

Received a call claiming to be from the lottery, but I don't participate in it. Honestly, folks, steer clear of answering and refrain from sharing any personal information. Stay safe out there!

I didn’t pick up because the number was unfamiliar, so I’ve gone ahead and blocked it from reaching me in future.

As several others have mentioned, I've supposedly won the lottery as well – quite the surprise considering I've never even purchased a ticket! I'm getting these incessant phone calls. I've gone ahead and reported the issue.

Received a call claiming to be from the lottery, but I can assure you it's not them, as they've not got my new number. They're pressuring me to subscribe to some monthly fee, and I've made it clear I'm not interested. This all kicked off after I entered a competition for a chance to win a modest home.

I received a call from this number today at 12:25 in the afternoon. Since I don't have any acquaintances in Birmingham, I chose to ignore it. Curiosity got the better of me, so I decided to check this website for more information.

I've been bombarded with calls from 01217261690 multiple times today, 30th March 2022. It’s been quite bothersome, to be honest. After seeing what others have written, I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number. No more of that nonsense for me!

I received a call from this number earlier today, but I chose not to pick up.

Refused to take the call.

Had a rather unpleasant experience with a cold call earlier. They disconnected as soon as I picked up, which makes me think it’s likely some sort of marketing agency. I recently responded to an ad to test out Gillette razors, and now it seems I’m being bombarded with calls. Quite annoying, really!

I’ve been receiving dodgy calls from scammers saying I’ve won the lottery, but the truth is I haven’t put a penny into the national lottery for over four years! What a cheek!

I received a rather peculiar call from a chap who appeared to know my name and address. When I inquired how he obtained such information, he claimed I must have participated in some survey. According to him, I was fortunate enough to have a chance at winning a prize. He introduced himself as Waddington and mentioned he was based in Leeds. However, the whole conversation left me feeling quite uncomfortable, so I decided to cut it short. I've since blocked the number.

I received a call claiming I had won 10 "lucky dip" tickets for the lottery. The caller had an outdated address and requested my current one to dispatch the tickets. I politely declined and ended the conversation.

This number keeps ringing me constantly without leaving any voicemail. Given the remarks I've seen here, I've decided to block them.

I signed up for a competition, and ever since, I’ve been bombarded with scam phone calls. Best bet is to just block the numbers.

What an absolute bother!

I've been getting calls from an unfamiliar number; they usually ring a few times before cutting off. Quite puzzling!

I suspect it’s a dodgy lottery scam - so I've decided to block the number.

This number rang me yesterday and then again twice today. I managed to decline the first call using the red button, but the second time, I had no option but to pick up, so it ended up counting as if I had initiated the call myself. I'm reporting this as harassment because they've called repeatedly in such a short span, and it seems I’m not the only one who's had enough.

Be wary; they're handing out free lottery tickets, and it could very well be a scam!

The person on the line claimed to be from a lottery group, offering a subscription at £12 a week or £54 each month via direct debit. They had my name and address, which made me quite uncomfortable. The thought of committing to that kind of recurring payment, especially when it would be deducted two weeks before any draw, didn’t sit right with me. I decided it was best to end the call.

Have you ever submitted your information for a freebie or taken part in an online contest? If so, brace yourself, as you’ll be bombarded with calls from all sorts of numbers. I once took a shot at a competition for entry tickets to Chester Zoo, and shortly thereafter I began receiving calls from this number along with several others. The caller claims I’ve won something, but then they throw in some deal about ten free lottery tickets. They rattle off their spiel at lightning speed and if you politely decline, they turn nasty and quite confrontational. Honestly, it's infuriating—best to just BLOCK, BLOCK, BLOCK!

Had a call last night from someone with a Birmingham accent claiming I'd won ten lottery tickets! Quite the surprise, I must say!

I was in the midst of brewing a lovely cuppa when my phone rang, but before I could pick it up, they’d already disconnected. Typical!

Right then, this is rather peculiar! My phone went off, I picked it up, and there was nobody on the other end. Suddenly, a rather loud beep echoed through the line, and then it rang again! A woman picked up, claiming to be from 'Your Lotto', asking how she could assist me. I told her, "But you called me!" to which she insisted, "No, you called me!" Strange, isn’t it?

Was unable to recognise who was on the line.

Claimed to be associated with the lottery service and promised me ten complimentary tickets for the draw scheduled on Wednesday, 30th March. Astonishingly, they even mentioned the jackpot amount! One would think they had a crystal ball or something, considering there are two draws prior to that date which could easily see the prize claimed before then. Clearly, it's just a clever ruse!

Phishing scheme posing as a lottery

Fraudulent lottery scheme

This number just won't stop calling, and I haven't a clue whose it is!

Received a call where the bloke addressed me by my last name. He had a regional accent, somewhere from the Midlands or up North, claiming he was representing the National Lottery. I had no clue what he was on about, so I mentioned it, and just like that, he hung up on me. Feels like a scam, if you ask me!

I received a call claiming that I'd won ten lucky dips for the lottery. They knew my address and mentioned they’d send the tickets my way. They even inquired if I'd had any luck with previous lottery draws. At that point, I decided to hang up.

I received a rather dubious call from someone purporting to be associated with the lottery service. Strangely enough, they had information about my name and address. Quite alarming, really!

They purport to be a lottery service, and what’s alarming is that they had my name and address!

Might be part of a lottery con, possibly.

Might be a lottery con, to be honest.

I received a dodgy call from someone purporting to be affiliated with the national lottery, trying to sell me tickets at ridiculously low prices. Definitely sounds like a scam to me!

I've been receiving calls from this number for the past few days, and every time I pick up, they simply cut the line. It's incredibly frustrating!

I've noticed that whenever I pick up, they simply disconnect. It's been happening for several days now, and I must say it's rather infuriating!

So, I had a chat with a chap on the line who had a rather distinct accent from Birmingham. He mentioned that he’d be sending out ten lucky dip entries through the post. What’s interesting is that he didn’t request any account information or anything along those lines, so I suppose we’ll just have to wait and see what happens! Fingers crossed! 🤞

I had a chap on the line with a distinct Birmingham twang. He mentioned he’d be sending out ten lucky dips through the post. Quite surprisingly, he didn’t request any of my account information. So, we’ll just have to wait and see what happens, fingers crossed! 🤞

I’ve been experiencing a string of calls that disconnect the moment I pick up. I've decided to block the number now.

I’ve been receiving multiple calls that disconnect as soon as I pick up – I’ve now decided to block the number.

Fraudulent activity!

Fraudulent activity detected!

Received a call on my phone earlier today, but I chose not to answer. If it had been a legitimate caller, I would have expected them to leave a voicemail for anything crucial. As there was no message left, I've decided to block the number, deeming it as unidentified.

Received a call on my mobile earlier today, but I chose not to answer. If it were an authentic caller, they'd have left a voicemail to convey their message. However, since there was no message whatsoever, I went ahead and blocked the number, deeming it as suspicious. I'm not taking any chances!

Received a call from a chap named Tom, who mentioned my name directly. He was talking about complimentary tickets for the national lottery.

I received a call from a bloke named Tom, and he seemed to know my first name. He was chatting about some complimentary tickets for the national lottery.

From what I've gathered from various sources, it appears to be O2. I'm not associated with them and I have no desire to engage. I've blocked the number entirely. They’ve attempted to pull a fast one on me in the past.

From what I’ve gathered from various sources, it appears to be O2 that’s behind this number. I don’t have any dealings with them and frankly, I’m not keen at all. I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number. They’ve attempted to pull a fast one on me in the past, so I’m steering clear of them entirely.
