I received a call from a woman who sounded like she was of Asian descent, pitching me about my life insurance renewal. It was rather amusing, as I don’t actually have any life insurance! I mentioned this to her, and she just wouldn’t let it go, insisting I surely have loved ones to think about and what would happen to them in the unfortunate event of my passing. In the end, I grew tired of her relentless spiel, hung up, and immediately blocked the number.

Got a call from an Asian guy asking about my life insurance. I said I wasn’t interested in talking about my current policy, but he kept pushing and even asked what I was trying to hide! I asked him over and over which company he was ringing from, but he just laughed and kept saying 'life insurance'. Then he admitted he was making commission just by keeping me on the phone, so I ended up hanging up.

No matter how many times I block them, they just call back with a different number that's pretty similar. Some overseas caller trying to chat about life insurance. Honestly, I'm baffled how they even got hold of my unlisted number.

Got a call from some unknown number in Carlisle earlier today. I live down in Somerset and have no connections or anything in Carlisle whatsoever. Didn’t pick up, but decided to look it up on who-called after and found loads of reviews posted today mentioning the same number. Looks like the scammers have been really active. I’ve blocked the number now.

I got a call from a woman checking if I had life insurance sorted, saying I might be missing something. When I asked her who she was, she wouldn’t say and the phone connection was pretty bad too. I then asked where she got my info from, and she just said some company linked to my life insurance but couldn’t name it. When I told her I don’t accept calls from third-party marketers, she just ended the call.

Got a call from a lady who said her name was Abigail but had a really thick accent. She opened with the usual "how are you?", which is often a sign of a scam. Then she told me she wanted to have a look at my life insurance. At that point, I pretended to be this deaf old geezer and kept saying "what?" over and over. She quickly lost her cool and began yelling, "Don’t you speak English?" I kept up the act, asking "Who’s this again?" and then she just hung up. Proper unpleasant person.

I called back and mentioned a different name by mistake, then this woman started being rude and wouldn't say which company she was calling for. I requested they put me on their blacklist or take me off their list as per data protection rules since they were giving me wrong info. When I asked for her name to confirm taking me off their records, I told her they didn’t need my name to delete my number. Then "Emily" just abruptly ended the call.

So this company, which says they work with big names like Aviva and a few others, calls up wanting to chat about life insurance. I told them straight away I’m not interested in life insurance. Then they go, “I’m not here to sell you life insurance, just want to have a chat about it.” I said again, I don’t want to talk about it at all, could they please remove my details from their records. They just kept pushing, asking if I understand how crucial life insurance is, over and over. It was really annoying!

Initially, I presumed it was a call from a business, but to my surprise, when I picked up, there was an Asian woman on the line inquiring whether I had life insurance. I informed her that I wasn’t keen on that sort of thing, and before I knew it, she hung up. It’s quite clear this is a dodgy operation. Does anyone know how I can go about reporting the number?

I received a rather strange cold call that was supposedly regarding life insurance. The caller kicked things off with an assumption, asking, “Am I speaking to xxxx xxxx?” - but they used my son's name, which is quite alarming considering he's just a young child in primary school! When I pushed back on this oddity, they promptly ended the call. It really worries me that they seem to have linked my phone number with my son's name somehow. How do they even get that information?
