I ended up calling them a bit rude and then they just dropped the call on me.

Honestly dunno what it was about, but I did register on that preference list thing to stop these annoying calls.

I got a call about some medical alert fob thing and I’m pretty convinced it’s dodgy. How on earth do they know I’m old enough to need one? Feels fishy if you ask me.

I received a call from someone enquiring if I was over the age of fifty. They seemed eager to provide me with a complimentary medical alert pendant, yet proceeded to ask for my credit card details under the guise of charging me for shipping costs. Quite the cheeky approach, if you ask me!

I received a call from a chap named John, apparently associated with a medical alert facility. He was insisting he worked for the NHS. Complete nonsense, if you ask me!

i got a call from a guy called John, said something about a medical alert pendant i could be eligible for. when i asked him what the point was, he just brushed it off and hung up on me. quite odd really.

So phone rang and when i picked up this guy says i qualify for some gadget or whatever. Then he goes, "are you older than 50?" I was like, "wait, who even is this?" and he just hung up on me. Definitely seems like a scam to me.

I got a call about some free emergency pendant or something, the guy was asking loads about my health. I figured if this was legit, they’d already have my medical info, right? So I just ended the call. Felt a bit fishy to me.

I got a call where there was just silence on the other end, but you could hear some mumbling and shuffling like it was a call centre in the background. I’ve since blocked the number, but after seeing what others have said, I’m bracing myself for them to ring again, probably using another phone number.

got a call from a guy who said his name was john and he was with some medical alert company in devon. he sounded really convincing and said i qualified for a free emergency device. but when i asked him a few more questions, he just hung up on me. the number he called from was actually in barnsley, yorkshire, which made me think it was probably a dodgy scam and maybe even risky.

I just ignored the call and didnt bother calling back. They said they were selling medical bracelets or something. How the heck did they get my phone number anyway? And why would anyone need a medical bracelet from some random call? Seems like a dumb scam. Always report these annoying callers. These kind of scams prey on people who are vunerable and they really need to be stopped. The worst part is the robocallers keep coming back!

some bloke from a firm called, saying i might qualify for a medical alert pendant. he started asking me health-related stuff but i didnt answer. then i asked him how he got my number and if he knew my name. he just thanked me and ended the call. felt like he was fishing for medical info for a possible scam later on. dont give them anything - best to just ignore and hang up.

Got a call from a bloke with a deep voice asking about things like heart issues, diabetes and if ive had any falls. He was talking about some kind of medical alert system and trying to say I might be qualified. I ended the call quickly cause it sounded a bit dodgy and im not sure it’s legit. No info or complaints about the number anywhere online that ive seen.

I didn’t pick up when they rang me back, just ignored it. They said they were selling some sort of medical wristbands. Honestly, where on earth do they get these phone numbers? And why would anyone really want a medical bracelet from a random cold caller? These kinds of scams are just ridiculous. People keep reporting them, but these nuisance calls just keep coming. They really should be banned altogether since they prey on those who are more vulnerable. It’s about time something’s done to put a stop to this.

My mum got a phone call from someone asking if she was over 50 cause she might qualify for a personal alarm. She ended the call right away, wondering how they even knew anything about her. It felt like one of those dodgy scams, especially since the number had the same area code as a recent call trying to give a refund on white goods insurance. Honestly, it’s about time the government stepped in and shut these scams down.

Got a call from a guy named John trying to give me a free medical pendant, but he didn’t even ask for my name or anything. Just so you know John, I’m actually 14 and was just picking up my aunt’s phone.

Some stranger rang up saying I was entitled to a refund on my life insurance because my premiums supposedly dropped. Thing is, I've never even had life insurance!
