4 yearsDidn't receive any voicemail, and there was no conversation at all. Is this number from the Barnsley area? I'm not familiar with it. What a pointless intrusion! They could be doing something far more worthwhile instead of bothering me. Get a grip, honestly!Barnsley4 yearsThis is definitely a scam! I’ve gotten more than 20 calls from someone named John with a recorded voice, claiming there’s been an overcharge on a household appliance plan that I never even signed up for. Completely bogus.John4 years01226 666708 called me claiming they wanted to provide support after upsetting news stories about people forced to sell their houses to pay for care. While the person sounded friendly, it was clear he was just following a tired script. I don’t mean to sound harsh, but I really doubt the call was sincere. Best to stay well clear and not take anything they offer. Be careful and don’t trust calls from this number.4 yearsI just saw a missed call from 01226666708 on my phone. Wonder who that was.4 yearsI picked up, but there was just silence on the other end.4 yearsI picked up but there was nobody speaking on the other end.4 yearsI just waited there as the answering machine kicked in, only for the caller to hang up straight away without saying a word.4 yearsI think it was related to some insurance for drains or something along those lines.4 yearsI recently inquired about a new initiative designed to safeguard your property if you move into a care facility. However, the moment I mentioned that I wasn’t a homeowner, they abruptly terminated the call-such a discourteous way to treat someone!4 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be State Protection Services. They said they're a nationwide firm but based in London. They told me the BBC had reported that going into a care home means you'd lose your property. Mentioned a solicitor would get in touch soon to explain my rights. Didn't feel right, so I just blocked the number.State Protection ServicesLondonBBC News4 yearsGot another call claiming to be from the state protection service.4 yearsI got called by someone who was trying to scare me into thinking I’d lose my house if I ever needed medical care down the line.4 yearsThe person on the line was rather vague, mentioning something about our local power supply. I can't shake the feeling that it might be some sort of scam.4 yearsI have no clue who or what Barnsley is connected to, doesn't ring any bells with me!Barnsley4 yearsI received a call from someone who identified himself as John, supposedly from a healthcare centre. He inquired if there was anyone over the age of 70 living with me. He mentioned he wanted to provide a complimentary medical alert system for that person. I decided to hang up as it seemed rather dubious. It definitely felt like a phishing attempt.John4 yearsGot a call from a bloke named John claiming to be from some Medical Alert Centre in Dorset. Said my number was flagged because I supposedly have health or mobility issues, and that I could get a free pendant alarm. He asked if I was over 50. When I asked where he found my number, he just wouldn’t tell me and kept going over the same thing. In the end, I just ended the call.JohnMedical Alert CentreDorset4 yearsGot a call from a number I didn’t recognise, no voicemail or anything left behind. Pretty sure it’s just another scam.4 yearsHad a call from a number I didn’t recognize on my home phone, didn’t pick up as I wasn’t sure who it was and no message was left. Seems like it was probably one of those spam or scam calls.4 yearsGot a call from 01226 666708 saying I qualified for some kind of medical alert gadget. I wasn’t interested at all, so I just ended the call straight away.4 yearsGot a call from some guy named John claiming to be from a Medical Alert company - total spam!JohnMedical Alert Centre4 yearsJust ignore those calls, don’t bother picking up!4 yearsGot a call from some bloke named John pushing free medical pendants. He had no clue who I was or where I’m from. Just kept repeating the same pitch, didn’t pay attention, and came off like he was trying way too hard. Couldn’t really have a proper chat with him. I’ve blocked the number for good now. When I got a bit annoyed asking questions he wouldn’t answer, they just hung up on me. Didn’t share any info, and honestly, you shouldn’t either! I’ve reported it as a scam to the real medical firm and cybercrime authorities.John4 yearsI keep getting calls from this unknown number 01226666708 but they never leave a voicemail if I don’t pick up. Seems like plenty of others have said it’s best just to ignore them anyway.4 yearsGot a recorded message claiming to be from Domestic General. They spoke with pauses, making it sound like a real person talking about updating your policy. If you stay silent, the call just drops after a while.4 yearsGot a call about a free medical alert device, supposedly for falls and stuff. I’m actually signed up with the genuine Medical Alert company, so it was a bit fishy that the caller didn’t know anything about my condition. I rang up the real company, and they told me it’s a known scam using their name illegally. The person on the phone just kept on going and wouldn’t shut up, but when I asked stuff, they had no proper answers, probably because it wasn’t part of their script. I bet they want your bank details to charge you after some “free” trial. Best to just ignore it!REAL Medical Alert4 yearsI got a call that sounded like it was from domestic general, but it was all weird pauses like someone was trying to trick me. They said they wanted to update my policy but kept leaving silent gaps, making it seem like a real person. If you stay quiet, the call just drops on its own. Bit dodgy if you ask me.4 yearsGot a call from a guy named John claiming to be from Dorset, trying to sell me some kind of medical alert alarm. He quickly wanted me to give personal stuff like my age and health details. Feels like a typical scam, just fishing for info to con people into paying for something either pointless or that’s actually free. Proper leeches, honestly.JohnDorset4 yearsSome bloke called John rang me, said he was from Medical Alert. Didn’t even bother to ask who I was, just started saying he wanted to find out if I qualified for something (no clue what). He asked how old I was. I asked if Medical Alert was a proper company, and he said it’s all over the UK and based in Dorset. Then, out of nowhere, he lost interest and ended the call quite nicely.JohnMedical AlertUKDorset4 yearsGot a call from someone called 'John' claiming to be from some 'Medical Alert Centre' or something like that. He started with "Our records suggest you MIGHT be eligible for..." but I didn't hang about - put him straight on the block list.JohnMedical Alert CentreWent4 yearsI’ve never come across this before. They’re saying I could qualify for a free medic alert bracelet. But since my health info is supposed to be private, it just smacks of a scam to me. I honestly can’t see what kind of personal details they’d want from you to send out this “free” bracelet. Doesn’t feel right at all.4 yearsCan anyone tell me what kind of scam this could be?4 yearsI reckon this was one of those cold call scams. My phone connection was horrible and dropped out, but they never rang again, so to me it’s gotta be dodgy.4 yearsI got a call from a bloke named John pushing these "free" medical pendants but he had no clue who I was or where I lived. He kept repeating the same sales pitch over and over, wasn’t interested in anything I said, and came across as really pushy. The convo was impossible, so I just blocked the number for good. When I got a bit annoyed and asked some proper questions, they just hung up on me. Didn’t give them any personal info and I’d advise you not to either! I’ve reported it to the real medical company and also flagged it with scam and cybercrime authorities.John4 yearsAnswered the phone and there was silence on the other end. Just another one of those annoying auto dialling calls. Blocked them straight away.4 yearsBT Call Guardian never actually tells you who they are when they ring, which is pretty annoying. Tried asking a couple of times but no luck. Bit rubbish really.BTGuardian4 yearsI picked up the call and greeted the person on the other side with a friendly 'hello'.
