Got a call from an unfamiliar Cheltenham number, no voicemail left either. Seems like a spam or scam, so I've blocked it straight away.

I just block and ignore any call from numbers I don't know, it's usually spam or some kind of scam nowadays. Better safe than sorry with these random calls.

Terrible behaviour, had no clue what he was on about. He just sounded like he was running around the office after some sort of snake.

I got a call from a guy who had a pretty thick Indian accent. He said he was ringing from Carphone Warehouse and tried to sell me a super cheap contract with unlimited calls and data. I told him I wasn’t interested and he just ended the call straight away.

Hello everyone,

Just a quick note to say that I’ve been receiving calls from 01242673554, and I’ve been informed that this could be a scam. If anyone else is getting these calls, be cautious!

Cheers,

Someone called me saying they were from EE but had a really strong Asian accent. They asked if I knew the amount of my last payment, which EE would already have on file. Plus, the number didn’t even show as EE on my caller ID, it was something different. Pretty sure it was a scam.

Some dodgy caller pretended they were from O2, but the funny thing is I don’t even use O2 as my phone provider!

Got a call from this number, but since it isn't saved in my contacts, I decided to cut the conversation short. I've adopted a strict rule lately - if I don't recognise the caller, I won't pick up. I've got a hunch this might be some sort of scam or a dodgy sales pitch.

BEWARE! I had a chap contact me claiming to be from the O2 billing team, but the funny thing is, I don’t even have an account with O2! Definitely seems like a dodgy situation.

Claimed to be from Vodafone, but it just didn’t seem genuine to me. They cut the call as soon as I mentioned I wasn’t interested in chatting. Quite dodgy, if you ask me!

Received a call today from this number: +44 1242 673554, where the person on the line purported to be from O2. The moment I mentioned that O2 wouldn’t be calling from a Cheltenham number, he promptly ended the conversation. The chap had a foreign accent, and the call took an unusual amount of time to connect, which makes me wonder if it was being forwarded from abroad or something of that sort. Quite dodgy, if you ask me!

Got a call from someone with an Indian accent who said they were from my network, Three Mobile. It was a bit tricky to catch everything they said, but they were pushing an iPhone deal for just £5 a month. I just said no and hung up straight away.

Got a call from a bloke with a heavy accent, he was trying to pitch some discount deal and kept asking how I usually pay for my bills. I said I wasn’t about to give out any personal info to someone I don’t know, and then he just ended the call. I’ve gone ahead and blocked that number now.

They said they were O2, but kept dodging when I asked for my account number. You could tell it was one of those dodgy call centres, probably in India, 'cause there was loads of noise in the background.

Sounds like one of those auto-diallers, probably coming in from India but pretending to be UK numbers. They ring loads of phones every minute and then connect the calls picked up by random scanners waiting on the other end. That's why you often answer and there's just silence.
