Phone rang, bloke said he was from Carphone Warehouse, but there was loads of noise in the background and their English was all over the place. Didn’t even bother wasting my time chatting - definite scammers in my book.

Got a call from 01242306023 saying they were Virgin Media. They asked what my monthly bill was. I told them if they really were from Virgin Media, they’d already have that info. Ended the call straight away and blocked the number.

Rumour has it that Carphone Warehouse is claiming to sell the new iPhone 13 for just £50, which seems rather dodgy, don’t you think?

I came across an iPhone 13 offer from Carphone Warehouse that seemed unbelievably cheap. It was so good that it felt a bit dodgy, like it couldn’t possibly be legit. Pretty sure it’s a scam.

Got a call from Car Phone Warehouse, some bloke reading off a script about an amazing offer. I said thanks but no thanks, and instead of being cool with that, he just cut me off! Bit rude if you ask me.

I received a call from someone with a strong Indian accent who claimed to have obtained my number from some sort of database. When I probed him further and asked which database, he rudely retorted with, "Are you thick or what?" before abruptly hanging up on me.

Clearly a repeat offender in the world of scam calls. This number claimed to be from Carphone Warehouse, a company I’ve never had any dealings with whatsoever. I happen to know someone who works at their Cheltenham branch, so I thought I’d put them to the test by asking for the names of their managers-names I was somewhat familiar with thanks to my mate. Strangely enough, he couldn’t provide a single name and promptly ended the call. Quite telling, don’t you think?

Went to the Carphone Warehouse after seeing an advert for a phone deal that seemed too good to be true. Sure enough, when I got there, they told me the offer wasn’t real. Looks like it was just some kind of scam. Really disappointed!

The moment I picked up, the call just dropped. I’ve got no mates or anyone from Cheltenham, so that was odd!

Claimed to be from Carphone Warehouse, he did. I pointed out it sounded like a scam, to which he retorted that Carphone Warehouse is a reputable firm, so why would they engage in such shenanigans? I simply replied that just because McDonald's is a massive chain, it doesn’t mean I’m affiliated with them, does it? What a daft bloke!

I received a call from someone claiming to be associated with Carphone Warehouse, trying to tempt me with a fabulous offer on an iPhone. They mentioned having partnerships with various mobile providers to obtain my phone number, yet surprisingly, they couldn’t tell me what my name was. I promptly requested that they delete my information from their records.

I reckon they verify the number to confirm it’s in use, then they proceed to pass it along to even more telemarketers. Simply not picking up is probably the wisest option to cut down on those pesky spam calls.
