Got a call about loft insulation, said someone could come check it for free as part of a government programme from a couple of years ago, but it wasn’t for my place. I asked the bloke to ring back so I could get my husband on the line, but he just ignored that. The convo felt a bit odd, like there was a lag or something, made me wonder if it was some kind of bot. He was speaking English alright, so language wasn’t an issue. In the end, I just ended the call - didn’t really trust the whole thing.

I got one of those "Hello, can you hear me?" scam calls the other day. Honestly, if you ever get one, just don't say yes!

Got a call from this number, but they didn’t leave a voicemail or anything. Checked out this brilliant site and turns out they’re just scammers or dodgy folks. Cheers for the info. Blocked the number straight away.

They called me but hung up straight away once my voicemail started.

He called and asked if I could hear him alright, then just ended the call. I said yeah without really thinking.

I’m registered with TPS and don’t have this number saved, so I let it ring out. They called me last week too and never bothered to leave a voicemail either time. Seems like it could be a scam.

Got a call while I was trying to get some sleep after a night shift. I kept trying to cut him off but he just ignored me and kept jabbering on about some insulation I'd supposedly put in that was making damp patches. Made me hang up in the end.

Got a call from someone pushing loft insulation yesterday. Didn't really want anything to do with it, so just hung up straight away. Sounds like one of those common sales calls.

They didnt leave any message so I'm not impressed.

Got a call from someone called James claiming to be an energy advisor, but it turned out to be just a looped recording. Not sure if it’s a scam or something else, but seemed dodgy to me.

What a scam! They rang me up trying to chat about some car finance, but they clearly had no clue I’ve never had anything to do with car loans. Proper nasty bunch, these folks - wouldn’t wish this on anyone’s nearest and dearest. It’s just awful how some people end up getting caught out by these dodgy calls.

Sounds like a scam to me. The message was cut off and all I caught was some sort of thanks. No idea what it was really about.

Got a call today on my home phone from this number. Didn't pick up and they didn’t leave any voicemail, just ended the call straight away. Feels like another one of those scam calls, don’t you think?

Got a voicemail claiming I have some refund waiting for me... seems fishy to me.

Some bloke named David phoned me trying to sell new doors at half price, just wanted me to confirm some details. I’m certain he rang me a week back too. He sounded like he was just going off a script and didn’t pause when I asked how he’d got my number. Then I shouted at him to be quiet, but he kept going. Felt like it might have been a robot on the other end. Or maybe David was having a laugh coz I shouted at him the last time he called.

I got a call from someone named James claiming he’s an Energy Advisor. When I asked if the call was being recorded, he suddenly went silent for a bit before chatting away again. Years back I used to get calls like this, often from a woman named Jo, who didn’t react too well if I started asking her questions.
