When I answered that call earlier, no one said a word. The previous occasion, it was some spiel about paying to "block annoying calls" and they even tried asking for the CVV on my card!! All this even though I'm registered with the TPS and clearly don't want any of this. To make matters worse, Virgin Media makes you pay for phone display and seem to have zero interest in keeping us safe. Such a pain!

Bloody scammers, what a load of tossers. Proper wankers, every last one of them. Can't stand 'em, honestly.

I got called by someone claiming to be from a company called Home Assurance, or something like that - which sounds a lot like the actual firm I get my service through. They acted like they knew my current plan and payment details, trying to convince me they were legit. They kept telling me they could lower my monthly fee from £7.99 to £5. When I got transferred to a manager, they started asking for bank info. I didn’t answer and the call got cut straight away. Classic sign it’s a scam.

This number's been calling me loads recently. I just let it ring through to my voicemail but there's never any message left. It's really strange.

Got a call from a bloke with an Indian accent who kept saying my first name but totally mangled it, like it was my last name or something. He said I was paying £10 a month for some insurance on electrical stuff like my TV. I told him there’s no way I’m paying for that insurance, and then he just dropped the call.

Honestly, I'm clueless. Got calls from this number about four times in just one day, even though I’m on the do not call list and my number isn’t listed anywhere. They kept asking weird stuff about my internet. Tried calling back but no one picks up, so I just blocked it now.

They keep ringing nonstop, but when you answer there's either no sound at all or some automated voice just saying goodbye.

A bloke called me up with what sounded like an Indian accent. He asked for my name and then said I had appliance insurance with his firm. He claimed I was currently paying £7.99 but they were cutting it down to £5.99. That’s when I knew something was off because I actually pay way more than that! When I started asking questions, he kept pushing but eventually I just hung up on him. I did a 1471 to check the number, called it back and left it ringing for over a minute and a half but no one picked up.

I keep getting calls every day from loads of numbers that look the same. Just today, I got a message saying "You have now left the conference call" - which is weird because I never even knew I was part of any conference or call to begin with! Seriously, there’s got to be some way to put an end to all this annoying rubbish!!

Got a call from someone with an accent, asking if Mrs "X" was there. No idea who that is, and at this number, definitely not. They just ended the call straight away. So frustrating!

I normally wait a sec before I fully answer the phone, and that seems to stop the auto dialer from pushing the call through. Then it just ends pretty quick, which is usually a silent call.

This number has been relentlessly ringing me at all sorts of odd hours. I'm choosing not to pick up, as it seems rather suspicious. I reckon it's time to put a stop to it and block them.

when i pick up the phone nothing happens for like 30 seconds, then out of nowhere a robotic voice says "goodbye" and hangs up. it's clear they're trying to send some recorded message but it’s all messed up. this has happened to me well over 100 times now.

Got a call today from someone saying they could cut my insurance costs on home gadgets. When I asked which appliances, they mentioned my TV and washing machine. I told them I’m not insured for either. They insisted their info showed I was covered for both. Then they tried to convince me to switch to their service to save money. I just ended the call there and then.

I keep receiving calls from some relentless bunch, pestering me to upgrade my insurance for things like my Sky package and my washing machine. They’re always asking for my bank details too, which makes me quite suspicious. I was under the impression that it’s now illegal to harass individuals like this over the phone. What a nuisance!

Got a call from someone claiming to be with Domestic & General about some kind of appliance cover for a washing machine we never bought. They said they wanted to lower the price for it or something like that. Sounded dodgy to me, probably a scam.

I’ve gotten three calls from this number, and honestly can’t believe they’re all from the same place. First, someone claimed my phone line was hacked, then it was a supposed Microsoft issue with my connection, and finally, a woman calling about some TV insurance. She was all over the place when I asked what she was after, only giving me that last answer in the end. Definitely sounds like a load of scammers to me.

Received a call from someone claiming to be with Homeguard, inquiring about my washing machine insurance. They requested my bank details, but I decided to terminate my direct debit instead, and then they promptly ended the call. I've since blocked the number.

Got a call from a number with Clayton's area code. They claimed to be from Homeguard and tried selling me a cheaper plan for washing machine insurance. When they asked for my bank details to verify, I told them I wanted to stop the direct debit, and then they just cut me off. I've gone ahead and blocked that number now.

I received a call yesterday, and again today, answered with a cheerful "hello," but there was complete silence on the other end. I'm not familiar with anyone from Clacton-on-Sea, so I'm unsure whether it's a dodgy call or simply a case of misdialing.

Got loads of calls from a woman trying to get my info, claiming there was a bargain on offer. Sounded like a total scam to me. Today, I've had about four calls from strange numbers too, and the voice on the line kinda rang a bell. I've just blocked the number using BT’s 1572 service to stop it ringing through again.

Got a call about some TV service insurance, said it’d be cheaper but asked straight up for my bank info. Total scam, watch out!
