Totally a scam, best to avoid.

Got a weird call from an Indian lady claiming to be from Advantage or something, wanted to ask me a bunch of questions like others said.
Advantage

Someone just called me, knew my name, then abruptly ended the call. Their accent didn’t sound British to me; it seemed more like a European one.

I received a call from this number, and being that it had a Cambridge area code, I thought it might be legitimate since I’m based in Ely just a short jaunt away. An Indian woman was on the line, claiming to represent some sort of survey for ‘Advantages Life’ or something along those lines. She rattled off her intro at such a pace it left me quite flummoxed, and I had to press her for details about the company. Oddly enough, just as I started to ask more questions, she abruptly hung up! I’ve done a bit of searching but found next to nothing on this so-called company. Quite puzzling, to say the least!

Received a call from this number, but the person on the line wanted to know some personal information before they could explain the purpose of their call. I've since put a block on it.

I received a phone call from someone purporting to represent a firm known as 'Advantage'. They claimed there was some sort of technical glitch on their end that necessitated a verification of my information. However, when I pressed for details about the company and what they actually do - which I might add I have never come across before - they were rather tight-lipped and promptly disconnected the call. Quite suspicious, if you ask me!
Advantage

Never agree by saying "yes" if they ask to call back. They want to catch you on a recording saying it, then they might twist it for some dodgy reason later on.

Someone rang me and already knew my name, claiming they were from a company called Advantage and wanted to ask some questions. Then they said they were having technical problems and would ring back later. From reading the other comments here, it looks like they are following a set script and it probably is some kind of scam.

Got a call from a company named Advance, trying to ask me 'a couple of questions' but I didn't let her get going. Strange thing is, she knew my name but when I asked her to say the company name again she just went quiet. Same when I asked where she got my number from, no answer. She kept ringing me back even though after the first call I told her straight up 'stop calling, you're breaking GDPR rules.'

They called, inquiring whether I was [full name], and then promptly disconnected without another word.

Got a call from an Indian sounding lady asking for a name I’ve never heard. Then she said there was some technical issue and that she’ll ring back. I really hope she doesn’t, bit suspicious since it’s nearly the end of the day.

They said my name but wouldn’t tell me who they were. When I asked again, they just ended the call.

Someone said they were from a firm named Advantage. They asked me to verify my name but then claimed they were having tech issues and couldn't do the survey. Felt a bit dodgy, maybe a scam.

I received a rather strange call where the bloke on the other end inquired if I went by Jacob. Naturally, I was curious as to what prompted such a question. However, he came across as quite confrontational. In the end, I decided to end the conversation and promptly blocked the number.

Sounds like a scam to me; they mentioned my name but I struggled to catch most of what she said due to her thick accent. I think it had something to do with a survey called "Advantage" or something similar, but I’m not certain.

no answer, just silence on the line

She said she'd ring me back later because of some technical problems. She actually knew my name. It was a woman speaking with a Welsh accent. As soon as i asked where she got my number from, she just hung up. Definitely seems like a scam. If i sounded more vulnerable, i don't think she'd have even bothered with the technical issues excuse.

Never told me what company they were calling from, just sounded like some call centre even though the number looked local. Said they needed to close because of some tech issues and they’d ring back - no way!

I’ve been getting calls from them daily, and no matter what I do, they just won’t leave me alone.

I've received numerous calls from a number inquiring about a chap named Simon Martin - not a soul I recognise. Whenever I request them to take my number off their list, they simply cut the line. It's becoming rather infuriating, to say the least!

This number has called me three times but I missed all the calls, does anyone know who it might be?

Whoever that was, they’re the rudest people I’ve ever dealt with. I picked up and they said it was a survey. Told them I was actually on my way to a funeral, and she just goes, “It’ll only take a minute.” Yeah, no thanks, I just ended the call.
