Got two calls from these guys, first one was early, saying they were with EE from 02045389716. Later on, they rang again but this time claimed they were from Currys PC World. Both times they kept pushing me to do some kind of upgrade. Pretty suspicious if you ask me.

I have a strong feeling that this caller is up to no good! They purported to be ringing about my O2 plan, but the thing is, I don’t even have an O2 account. Quite suspicious, if you ask me!

I had a really hard time figuring out what this guy was saying. He said he was from Carphone Warehouse or something, but when I asked him to repeat himself, he suddenly started being rude and told me to "go back to my country." It was quite shocking and really unpleasant to deal with.

I never pick up calls from numbers I don’t know. If it’s really important they can just leave a voicemail, but it’s funny how they never do that! I always come here first to see if someone else has mentioned the number before deciding to block it or not. If you’re looking up dodgy numbers, please drop a comment too - it’s a big help for everyone!

Got a call from overseas, claiming to be from The Phonehouse Company wanting a chat about my mobile. I asked her to say the company name again since I'm on the Telephone Preference Service and thought I shouldn’t be getting calls like that. She just snapped back saying I was wasting her time!!! and then ended the call. Definitely wouldn’t trust sharing any info with them.
