Got a call today claiming to be from the “energy department” - definitely a scam! Didn’t fall for it and hung up straight away. Watch out, folks!

I answered the phone and all I heard was a robotic female voice saying "Goodbye" before they just ended the call.

Got a call around 4.15 in the afternoon from someone speaking with a foreign accent. The person said he was “calling from your mobile phone provider” and I asked, “Which provider exactly?” He answered “O2”. I ended the call quickly, saying “No, that’s not right,” and hung up straight away.

About 15 mins ago, got a call from some foreign-sounding person talking about broadband stuff. Couldn't make out much, but it definitely wasn’t BT. So, I just ended the call.

I picked up the home phone but stayed silent, then it just switched to a busy tone. Ended up blocking the number and removing it from my contacts.

We got a call at work from someone who said they were with Uptel, working for BT Business, trying to set up a time for Openreach to upgrade our phone and internet. I had my doubts about the call being legit, so I shared my worries with the person on the line. As soon as I told them I thought our upgrade was already done, they just cut me off suddenly and didn’t say a word more. That behaviour really set off alarm bells for me. Definitely be careful if you get calls like this.

Got a call from some call centre, didn’t even bother giving them a chance. If you pick up and all you hear is silence before they say anything, just end the call straight away. Waste of time otherwise.

Got a call and when I picked up, there was nothing but silence. I ended up hanging up, looked up the number here, and then decided to block it.
