I told him I didn’t want any of it, and then he was all like “Seriously, ####?” That’s when I just shouted a lot of swear words down the phone at him!Sky3 yearsGot a call from some centre saying they were Microsoft, trying to sort out some problem with my PC... they hung up pretty quick once they saw I wasn't falling for it.Microsoft3 yearsSaw this number pop up but decided not to pick up. Heard it's one of those scam calls.3 yearsI tried ringing back after seeing a missed call from them, but all I got was a message saying calls to this number aren’t allowed.3 yearsAnswered the call and then it just ended straight away.

He was pretending to be from "Microsoft Windows" - as if I'd believe that!Robin SmithMicrosoft3 yearsReceived a call from some scammer pretending to be Microsoft again, and it was another voice with an Asian accent. Such a pain!AsiaMicrosoft3 yearsNever picked up the phone since these days it’s just scammers ringing my landline and nobody else.3 yearsSo this woman called me yesterday and then again today, claiming to be from BT, saying my broadband was being used by other people. Both times I was like, "Alright, but what exactly do you want me to do about that?" And every time, she just cut the call. Proper odd!BT3 yearsI got a call from 01256231438 at 10:14 on 10/10/23, but I didn’t pick up and they didn’t leave any voicemail. Then, just four minutes later, 03301900622 called me.
