Answered with the answering machine picking up, and the caller just disconnected. Total scam attempt!

I've been rung twice by this number, both times they hung up without leaving any message. Honestly, it just feels like another dodgy scam trying to catch people out.

Got a call from someone trying to pitch a service about safeguarding my house from being used to pay for future care home fees. Honestly, if you’re worried about that sort of stuff, it’s best to speak directly with Citizens Advice or maybe a proper solicitor. I wouldn’t trust some stranger ringing you out of the blue. Usually, the folks cold calling aren’t thinking about helping you - they’re just after their own gain.

I got a call from a bloke named Simon about my driveway - no clue how he even got hold of my home phone number. These scammers are the worst, seriously! It’s ridiculous they’d try to grab private info without permission and drag folks into their dodgy schemes. Proper cheeky, if you ask me.

I got a call that only rang a single time. When my call blocker picked up and asked who it was, the caller just hung up straight away. I've gone ahead and blocked the number now.

When my phone rang, I hit the button to pick up but stayed silent. Some bloke called James got on and mentioned something about assistance with care, relating to new government charges. I kept quiet, and then he just ended the call. Yesterday, a number close to this one called me too, but I didn’t answer - just used 1471 to check who it was.

This lady spoke all fancy like she was posh or summat, real polite too, asking if I had a driveway, no less. Total scam alert. I said nothing back and just hung up. Too dodgy for me.

Got calls from a couple of different numbers asking if we had a driveway at our place. When we asked where they got our number from, they said it was bought through some official agency. Thing is, our number’s ex-directory and we’ve got the phone preference service on, so it seems dodgy to me.

I'm not sure who was calling but it definitely seemed fishy or some sort of scam. I use a call blocker on my phone, and the moment I ask them who they are, they just shut off the line. So yeah, I've just gone ahead and blocked that number for good.

Got a call from 01252240138 again, last time they were saying something about folks needing to sell their houses to pay for elderly care. Sounds like some kind of scam to me.

Got a call from 01252240138, some bloke saying he's from an equity company talking about folks needing to sell their homes for medical care or something. After seeing the reviews, turns out they're using loads of excuses to scam people. I've gone ahead and blocked the number now.

Got a call from a woman called Jane who claimed I qualified for a free medical pendant. I asked her to say that again because I thought I heard something odd in her voice during a couple of words. When I mentioned this, she just hung up on me. Pretty sure it was a scam.

I got a phone call from some bloke who said he could arrange for a specialist to ring me back about ways to prevent the government forcing me to sell my house if I needed care. It sounded dodgy right away, so I just told him I wasn’t interested. He then said thanks for my time and ended the call. Definitely felt like a scam to me!

Got a call from someone claiming it was about new laws for empty houses, said it was from the government or something, but felt a bit fishy to me. Seems like they were trying to confuse me with talk about legislation and spare homes, but I couldn't tell if it was legit or just a scam. Anyone else had calls like this pretending to be official officials?

This person said they could stop the government from forcing me to sell my home if I ended up needing care. Turned out to be a total scam.

Seems like a scam to me, probably something about government rules. When my husband asked them to explain again why they were calling, they just hung up straight away. So I’ve blocked the number now.

Got a robocall where the voice asked if I was Kate, then babbled something about a driveway. I couldn't make out the rest, so I just said no and hung up. Proper annoying.

Heads up. Got a call from someone saying the UK Government has supposedly introduced a law forcing folks to sell their homes to cover care costs. They offered to give me some legal advice and squeeze me in for a consultation. Sounded very polished and definitely didn't have an Indian accent. I told them I’m not thinking about care for at least another 40 years, so no thanks. Not exactly sure what their angle was, but shame they chose to ring this number.

I got a call from someone saying they were from Currys PC World, offering to help me cut costs on my phone deal. I told them I already had a contract, and they said they were aware of that but could still offer a better price. When I asked them to explain my call minutes, texts, contract end date, and exactly how much I’d save, they kept asking for my monthly bill details. Surely they’d have access to all that anyway. Then, when I pushed back a bit, they just hung up on me.
