Got a call from someone saying they were with Southampton City Council, but weirdly the number showed up as Basildon Council. Definitely not a "Harry" from my experience. I messed around a bit with the caller, but eventually they got annoyed and just ended the call.

Received a call earlier from someone saying “WiltshireCouncil” but the line was really fuzzy and they spoke with a thick accent. I ended up hanging up after about 20 seconds. I looked it up on Google afterwards, so cheers for the info!

I just got a call about my accident from Southampton council, such a surprise to hear from them!

Just got a ring from someone claiming to be from Lincoln City Council, chatting about an accident supposedly reported by the NHS. I didn't hold back and told him if I knew where he was, he'd be in for a proper accident - something heavy hitting his head! That’s when he cut the call off!

Got a call from someone with a really thick accent, said they were from the NHS in Liverpool, checking up on an accident I supposedly had. I told ’em I hadn’t been in any accident, so they asked if it was someone else in my family. I told ’em they weren’t from Liverpool NHS and asked what they’d do if someone else really had an accident, thinking they’d admit they were probably accident solicitors or something like that. But then, out of nowhere, they just ended the call.

The person on the line said they were from Liverpool City Council, but I asked why the number wasn’t local to Liverpool. They then said they were ringing from their London branch. I pointed out that the number wasn’t from London either. When I had a look at my recent calls, I noticed they’d also called me a few days before claiming to be from Nationwide!

I had a call like that too, some bloke saying he was from Lincoln Council and that he’d got my number off the NHS. He was talking about some accident I supposedly had, which never even happened. I could tell it was dodgy right away and just hung up.

Strangely enough, I got a call like that too, but I’m certain he mentioned Liverpool, not Lincoln - even though I’m based in Lincoln. I just asked him when, and he ended the call straight away x

We've been getting calls like that too. When I rang Basildon council back, they told me it’s actually a scam. Neither Basildon nor Lincoln council are involved, but apparently the scammer has somehow copied their number.

15/7/14 - Got a call on my unlisted number from some bloke claiming to be with the Lincoln council NHS. He was a foreign guy saying I’d been in an accident lately. I didn’t say a word to confirm and told him straight to remove my details from whatever list he had. Didn’t want any of those annoying calls. Used the rudest tone I could muster. Wonder if they’ll ring again!

I ran into this too. Lincoln actually has its own council, but when I tried ringing them back the number redirected me to Basildon Council instead. Quite strange, so just be careful!

My landline rang and the person said he was from Lincoln city council, claiming I’d been in an accident and should file a claim. Nothing like that ever happened. The man had a strong foreign accent I couldn’t really follow, so I just said sorry and hung up.

Apologies, but the area code is actually associated with Basildon in Essex, rather than Southend or Southampton.

I received a call around midday today from someone claiming to represent Southampton Council.
