2 monthsRight after I paid a trusted company, I got a call while I was already on another one. I ignored it, but then they rang back twice more within just half a minute, using different numbers each time. I'm pretty sure it's connected to the payment I just made, so I decided not to pick up any of those calls.2 monthsI picked up but there was complete silence on the other end. Definitely one of those scam calls.2 monthsGot loads of silent calls from this number, keeps ringing with no one there. Really annoying!2 monthspicked up and just silence, obviously one of those spam calls.2 monthsI just picked up but said nothing, then they ended the call straight away.2 monthsGot a call supposedly from 'Networking' asking, "How's your network doing today?" Didn't hang about - blocked them straight away!3 monthsMale robo voice (James) asked if I was the homeowner, so I said NO, but then he continued and wanted to know what loft insulation i had installed. At this point I hung-up.James3 monthsMale robo voice (James) asked if I was the homeowner, so I said NO, but then he continued and wanted to know what loft insulation i had installed. At this point I hung-up.James3 monthsToday at 11:19, this number rang me. I never answer calls from strangers, I just cough since I'm fed up with scams. After I coughed, a voice with perfect English asked, “Can you hear me?” I’m pretty sure it was some kind of recording because earlier, a different number called and when I said “yes”, they just cut off. This has happened four times with different numbers this week. Now, I don’t even say anything, I just end the call straight away.3 monthsGot a missed call with no voicemail left behind. Didn’t bother to ring back either.3 monthsWas trying to figure out if this was actually the double glazing company we were meant to hear from. But all it did was jabber on about some deal, and whenever I spoke over it, the machine just blasted out the message again. Proper annoying.3 monthsI hung up straight away. It was some automated message going, "Morning, are you able to hear me alright?" which seemed like a trick to get you to say yes so they could capture your voice. Some folks have marked it as neutral but I reckon it's a bit dodgy and could be a scam.3 monthsI tried asking what the call was about but the person wouldn’t say. So I just hung up. Seems like a scam to me.3 monthsThis morning at 11:19, my Blocker phone got a ring from 01242 785506 while I wasn't home. Since I'd never seen the number before and they didn't bother to leave a message, I'm pretty sure it was just another dodgy scam call. I've added it to my ever-growing blacklist now.3 monthsGot a call from some bloke called James, going on about insulating my house. Kept going until I told him to quit hassling me. So tiring, and it was just another VOIP number!James3 monthsDidn’t pick up since there was no voicemail and it felt like a possible scam.3 monthsHavent picked up. Loads of calls from various 01242 numbers popping up this week.3 monthsThis number isn't saved in my phone and they didn't leave any voicemail either.3 monthsI just got a call that was totally silent and I ended it straight away. I'm registered with TPS so they really shouldn’t be ringing me at all. Seems like they are breaking the sales rules.TPS3 monthsDidn't pick up since it was a random call, and they left no voicemail or anything.3 monthsGot a call on my old landline which I hardly ever use. They didn’t leave any message either.3 monthsThis bloke claimed he was with some green energy outfit, or something along those lines. I told him straight up I don't deal with cold calls, but he just kept going on and on. What’s weird is he said he was based in London, but the number definitely isn’t from around here. Felt a bit shady to me.London3 monthsHe asked if I was the homeowner, so I said yes, but then he wanted to know which house I lived in - he didn’t have a clue. The whole call was just a bunch of questions about loft insulation, but he didn’t seem to know much himself.Submit Your Own Report (01242 785506)
