11 monthsNumber 01229 252 773 called me, sounded like a man with an accent, not one of those recorded messages. He kept saying I was due some money. Felt a bit dodgy, might be a scam.11 monthsGot a call earlier with some sort of automated voice, sounded dodgy to me. Pretty sure it was one of those scam calls.11 monthsGot a call from someone saying they were legal help about a crash. Suspicious if you ask me.12 monthsThey've been ringing me non-stop for the past couple of days, dozens of calls and never a single message left. This has got scam written all over it. The fact they keep at it so hard tells me they must be pulling it off with some folks. Honestly, I hope they get what's coming to them - every dodgy trick catches up in the end.12 monthsGot a call from 01229732025 earlier but didn’t pick up since I’ve no clue who they were.12 months01229732429 Definitely a call centre ringin'. Woman's voice with an Indian accent, but really hard to catch what she was sayin'. I just put the phone down and left it ringing until they hung up themselves. Pretty sure it’s a scam!12 monthsHe called saying he was doing some sort of survey, but he didn’t even get my name right. Bit strange really.1 yearGot a missed call from this number 01229 252824, but I didn’t pick up since I’m not familiar with that region. They didn’t leave any voicemail or say who they were or why they called. Feels a bit dodgy, maybe a scam?1 yearGot a call from someone saying they were from the EE Promotions Team offering 30% off. They then asked for my password and attempted to change it. Watch out for this kind of scam!EE Promotions Team1 yearGot a call from 01229252217 earlier on but they didn’t leave any voicemail. I usually let these ring off and then look up the number to make sure it's legit. Been flooded with mystery calls all day, feels like these scammers are running out of ideas or something.1 yearGot a ring from 01229 252217 but didn’t pick up. No voicemail was left and I’m not familiar with that area code anyway, so not sure if it’s dodgy or not.2 yearsGot a ring from 01229 566758 about two suspicious bank transactions - one from Amazon for about £300 and another over £1000. They never mentioned which bank they were talking about and it felt odd that the caller ID showed a local number.

Smells like a total scam to me.Amazon2 yearsJust got a call from a number starting 01229, so I picked up since it’s local. Then there was this automated message claiming it was from the "bank security centre", saying someone made two big transactions on my card. It told me to press 1 to stop the payments or 2 to chat with someone. No way this is legit, specially cos they never mentioned which bank they were talking about! Definitely a scam.2 yearsGot a call from 01229 228982, wasn't a genuine bank call at all, total scam trying to fool me.2 yearsAvoid picking up, it's definitely a scam call centre.

Don’t press any buttons like 1 or 2 - just end the call immediately.India2 yearsI got a call from 01229 328232 saying they were from my bank.

Just watch out for calls like these!Amazon2 yearsErm, sorry, but who's this?3 yearsI got a call from 01229 732253 and the person on the line was really hard to make out.

Quite suspicious if you ask me.3 yearsI got a call from 01229 889306 saying they were with EE and offering to halve my phone bill.

Felt really dodgy to me, like a scam.EE3 yearsI got a call from 01229 732909 but as soon as I picked up, they just dropped the line.

Nevertheless, it doesn’t quite give off a genuine vibe, does it?10 yearsAbsolutely, we’ve experienced something similar-quite peculiar, isn’t it? Could it be related to a specific area code, perhaps?10 yearsI've received yet another call regarding that e-letter virus and the potential dangers it poses to our computers. This time, though, the caller’s region code is different. Quite curious, isn’t it?10 yearsCount us in! We’ve recently acquired one of those gadgets and promptly hung up on the bloke. We’re utterly done with the endless dashes to the stairs just to answer the phone for these chancers!11 yearsI noticed this number popping up on our caller ID, and it looks rather odd-definitely seems to be partially obscured since most numbers typically consist of eleven digits, yet this one only has five.
