Phone number ☎️ 01257429636 👆 is reported as a persistent scam involving unsolicited calls claiming to be from the NHS, specifically regarding Covid-19 vaccinations.

The number frequently rings with no message left and often originates from call centres outside the UK. Users strongly advise ignoring, blocking, and reporting the number, emphasising it is not linked to any legitimate NHS service and is part of a known fraudulent campaign targeting personal data.

5 yearsI got a call from this number claiming to be from Adrian Flux insurance, saying they needed to deliver a DR to my place. When I rang Adrian Flux myself, they said they had no idea who might be calling from that number. Felt a bit dodgy, to be honest.Adrian Flux5 yearsReceived a dodgy call from what sounded like an overseas call centre, claiming to be from the NHS regarding the Covid jab. They began probing for my personal information, and then bizarrely tried to sell me life insurance. Quite fishy, if you ask me. This is certainly not how the NHS operates!NHS5 yearsGot a call supposedly from the NHS asking about if I planned to get a vaccine booster. Then out of nowhere, they started probing about my life insurance. I told them flat out NHS wouldn’t be asking that kind of stuff. Definitely NOT from the NHS - total scam.NHS5 yearsHung up straight away. Seen the reviews, so I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number.5 yearsGot a call from some Indian call centre trying that NHS Covid scam. Best thing to do is just put the phone down and block the number straight away.IndiaNHS5 yearsGot a call claiming to be from the NHS about COVID jabs, they checked if I’d had both (I’ve had three actually) and then asked me to rate the whole programme out of ten. Started off alright, but then they tried to get details about my life insurance which I refused and said it wasn’t relevant. Right after that, they just dropped the call. I’ve blocked the number now.NHS5 yearsGot a call about Covid and vaccine info, but then they started asking for life insurance stuff - pretty obvious scam. I just told the woman straight up I wasn’t falling for it, and she ended up swearing at me before hanging up. Such a rude experience. AVPIDCovid5 yearsIt said NHS at first but then the call just cut off abruptly.NHS5 yearsHad a ring from this number earlier claiming to be with the NHS, asking about my covid jabs. He reckoned I’d had the two big ones, which I suppose is a fair guess! Kept calling me “Madame” like every other sentence. I told him I don’t trust NHS calls coming from a Chorley STD code and ended the call. He just hung up on me! Number’s blocked now!Chorley STD5 yearsThis number has called me three times now. When I picked up, the person on the line said they were from the NHS and wanted to check my covid vaccination details. I told them that if they really were NHS, they’d already have that info, then I ended the call.NHS5 yearsThey kept asking loads of questions, trying to get info out of me. Definitely a scam, no doubt about it.5 yearsthese vaccine scammers are really something else. you’d think the telecom companies could do more to block these horrible people, but i guess they keep letting them through because they’re cashing in on the calls. it’s just awful.5 yearsSome woman called pretending to be from the NHS asking about my Covid vaccine status. Total scam, be careful!5 yearsThis number rang me a couple of times but never left any voicemail. After seeing what others said about it here, I decided to add it to my block list. Cheers to everyone who posted their thoughts!5 yearsTotally a fraud.5 yearsI got two calls from this number but they never left a voicemail, so I figured it was a bit dodgy. After seeing what others have said, I’m definitely putting a block on it now.5 yearsI saw a missed call from this number, so I tried calling back but all I got was a message saying ‘the number you have dialed cannot be reached’. It’s pretty odd!5 yearsGot a call from a number I didn’t recognise, and they asked for me by my maiden name which seemed odd. Definitely came off like some dodgy call centre trying to scam me.5 yearsCaller claimed to be from the Covid help desk, haha.Covid5 yearsI got a call from a guy with an accent, saying it was for some covid survey, but he kept saying he was looking for ‘Lauren’, which isn’t me. I told him I didn’t want to take part, then he asked my name, said sorry and hung up. Weird thing is, he rung a new number I’d only just got set up yesterday for my mum. Could be a wrong number but honestly, feels like a scam more than anything.Lauren5 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be the NHS, asking about my vaccine records. I told them if they really were NHS, they'd already have that info. Then, the bloke just ended the call.NHS5 yearsThey claimed to be ringing from the NHS, but honestly, I couldn't catch a single thing they were trying to say. Kinda concerned, especially with all this covid jab stuff going on.NHS5 yearsThey claimed money was withdrawn from my account.5 yearsSomebody rang me saying they were from the NHS and asked about my life insurance. I told them I don’t have any. What freaked me out was that they already knew my name and an old address of mine.NHS5 yearsGot a call from a lady claiming to be from NHS track and trace, saying she needed to update my life insurance info. I asked her why she even bothers doing stuff like this, if she feels anything at all or just sits there feeling rubbish about herself. Then she just hung up on me.NHS Track and Trace5 yearsI got a call from someone saying they were with the NHS, asking for my life insurance info. But the details they had were totally off. I didn't give them any personal info.NHS5 yearsI got a call from someone with an Asian accent saying they were from the NHS and asking if anyone in the house had covid. When I asked why they needed that info, they just told me to "put your phone down" and said "f*** off." Definitely wasn’t a real NHS call.NHS5 yearsGot a call today from 01204 899143, the person said they were from the NHS. I got a call with the same story on another number just yesterday, which I ended up blocking. I used to do outbound calls for NHS myself, so there’s no way this is the real deal! Definitely a scam.NHS5 yearsThey said they were from the NHS and mentioned the vaccine, even knew my address. Then suddenly started asking about life insurance. Definitely not a real number.NHS5 yearsThis number keeps ringing me but then just cuts off without saying anything.5 yearsThe caller started off asking about Covid and then quickly moved on to questions about private health insurance, wondering if I had any cover. When I asked if it was a sales call, she denied it. I then pressed to know which organisation she was ringing from, and she claimed to be from the NHS, updating their records. After I kept probing and she kept dodging my questions, she suddenly lost her temper, told me to "f**k off" close to twenty times, and then just cut me off.Private Health InsuranceNHS5 yearsGot a call yesterday from someone saying they were NHS, said it was just a few quick questions about covid vaccines. Then somehow it switched to asking about life insurance and wouldn’t stop asking stuff with no proper info given. Told them straight up I thought it was dodgy. Had a couple other scam calls the same day too, seems like they’re all connected somehow.NHS5 yearsSomeone called me pretending to be with the NHS asking if I'd got my vaccine passport. I told them you only need it if you're travelling, then they just ended the call. Not sure what kind of scam it was since they never asked for any personal info or anything. Bit strange really.NHS5 yearsWatch out, these lot are total con artists.5 yearsGot a call pretending to be the NHS, total scam. I blocked the number straight away and reported it. Don't fall for it!5 yearsI saw the number pop up but didn’t pick up since I didn’t recognise it. After checking out some of the comments here, I decided to block it. Also did the same for 01204 899143 cos it rang me just yesterday.5 yearsSeveral times I've got calls like this. A bloke said he was from the NHS, asking about my vaccines. I told him straight away it's a common scam, but he kept denying it. In the end, I just told him maybe he should find some honest work and then ended the call.NHS5 yearsThey said they were from the NHS and asked about my COVID jab, saying a certificate would arrive in the post. Then they started asking about my life insurance details. I didn’t trust them and refused to answer anything, telling them I didn’t think they were genuine NHS callers. They put the phone down straight away after that.NHS5 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were from the NHS asking about my vaccine details. They used my maiden name, but I told them the NHS only has my married name on record, so I was suspicious. The bloke kept insisting he was with the NHS, so I asked him which NHS board he was with. He didn't even understand what that meant and just ended the call.NHS5 yearsThey said they were from the NHS, but I couldn't really catch what they were trying to say. Kept something about life insurance, and I was like, what has that got to do with the NHS? Then I told them I was ending the call, so I just hung up.NHS5 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be with the NHS, saying they were "updating the COVID jab records". I didn’t share anything with them. Then they told me I could decline and suddenly switched to asking about my life insurance, claiming it was for the "NHS life insurance registry". Well, I’m not daft enough to fall for that!NHS5 yearsSomebody rang me saying they were from the NHS and asked if I had life insurance. The moment I said no, they just cut the call straight away. Makes me wonder if it was some dodgy scam, especially if I'd said yes they might have tried something dodgier. Definitely felt like a SCAM.5 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were NHS, already knew my name and asked if I’d had both my jabs. I told them that info should be on my medical records. Then they wanted to know if I had a vaccine certificate, I just said it’s all on the app. Next, they asked about my life insurance, and I told them that’s personal and I’m not sharing it because of GDPR. They just hung up after that. This was actually the fifth call in less than 2 hours!NHS5 yearsI didn’t pick up, but yesterday got a call from a different number that was clearly a scam. I had a genuine NHS Track & Trace alert the same day, so I reckon someone working on those calls is giving away contacts to these scammers. Loads of people mentioning it’s linked to Covid and the NHS in the comments here too. The number had a Chorley dialling code, yet I’m based in Bath, so no doubt it was spam. Just blocked and ignored it!NHSChorleyBath5 yearsThey said they were with my life insurance firm, but then tried to link me up with another company offering different quotes.Life Insurance5 yearsThis one rang just as I picked up, but I ended the call straight away. I seem to get several calls like this every week, all from different numbers, although a few have begun with 01257.5 yearsThis number has rung me thrice today. The first couple of times, there was dead silence when I answered. On the third call, the person said it was about NHS Covid, but I had already looked up the number and saw it's linked to Coppull. He then said he was calling from the Elephant and Castle in London, which didn’t add up, so I just ended the call.NHSCovidCoppullElephant and CastleLondon5 yearsJust like a lot of others have said, this was definitely a scam. They pretended to be from the NHS and said they needed to post me a paper version of my vaccine certificate. When I asked straight up if it was a scam, they just ended the call. Also, I’ve gotten calls from the number 01204899143 three times within the past couple of days, same as what loads of people here have mentioned.NHS5 yearsThis number has rung me over and over, but no idea why or what they want. If you don’t say “hello”, it seems to trick the auto dialler, making it hang up by itself. I tend to keep quiet at first, waiting to see if the caller actually talks to help filter out annoying calls. Lately, the amount of these kind of calls has gone up quite a bit this week.5 yearsGot a phone call from someone saying they were from the NHS, asking all sorts of questions about my life insurance. Seemed a bit dodgy if you ask me.NHS5 yearsSomeone called asking for a guy using my old married name, which I haven't gone by in over six years. I had no clue who they were and just ended the call.Submit Your Own Report (01257 429636)
