11 yearsI recently received a call purporting to be from Southampton City Council, yet the number originated from Basildon Council, which struck me as odd. The chap on the line certainly didn't come across as a “Harry” to me. I managed to waste a little of his time, but he eventually lost his temper and abruptly ended the conversation. Quite the amusing encounter, really!Southampton City CouncilBasildon CouncilHarry11 yearsI just got a call from "WiltshireCouncil" but the line was so unclear and the accent was quite thick. I hung up within about twenty seconds. Did a quick search online and I'm grateful for the clarification!WiltshireCouncil11 yearsThe Southampton council has just informed me about my accident - quite the surprise, I must say!Southampton11 yearsI received an identical call from someone claiming to be from "Lincoln City Council" regarding an accident I supposedly had, which the NHS apparently informed them about! I told him that if I had any idea of his whereabouts, he’d best keep an eye out-because I might just drop something hefty on his noggin! That certainly prompted him to hang up!Lincoln City CouncilNHS11 yearsI received a phone call that was rather puzzling. The chap on the other end had a strong accent that's rather hard to place; I think he said he was with the NHS in Liverpool, looking into an accident involving me. The thing is, I haven’t been in any mishap! When I mentioned this, he probed whether anyone else in my family had. I felt it was a bit dodgy, so I told him he wasn’t calling from Liverpool’s NHS, and I inquired about what he intended to do if someone had had an accident. I half-expected him to confess he was a solicitor or something of that ilk, but instead, he just cut the line. Quite suspicious, if you ask me!NHSLiverpool11 yearsI received a call which was supposedly from Liverpool City Council. However, when I inquired about the absence of a local area code, the person on the other end mentioned they were ringing from their office in London. Naturally, I pointed out that it wasn't even a London number! Upon reviewing my call history later, I discovered they'd attempted to reach me a few days prior, pretending to be from Nationwide! Quite the dodgy affair, I must say!Liverpool City CouncilLondonNationwide11 yearsI experienced something similar! A foreign chap rang me, saying he was from the Lincoln Council and had obtained my number through the NHS. He claimed to be looking into an accident I’d never experienced. It was obvious to me straight away that it was a scam, so I promptly hung up the phone.Lincoln CouncilNHS11 yearsStrangely enough, I had a similar encounter. I’m fairly certain he mentioned Liverpool, not Lincoln, despite the fact that I’m based in Lincoln myself. When I inquired about the timing, he promptly disconnected the call!LiverpoolLincoln11 yearsWe've received a similar call ourselves. Just rang up Basildon council to check, and they've confirmed it's a scam. It has absolutely nothing to do with either Basildon or Lincoln councils; it seems the scammer has somehow managed to mimic their number. Quite brazen, isn’t it?BasildonLincoln11 years14th July 2015 - Indeed, I had a phone call on my private number, where a foreign gentleman claimed to be from the Lincoln council NHS. He mentioned something about me being in an accident recently. I didn't verify any of his claims and firmly instructed him to remove my name, address, and phone number from his records. I really couldn’t tolerate such intrusive calls, so I made sure to express my disdain quite clearly. It will be curious to find out if I hear from him again!Lincoln council NHS11 yearsI encountered a similar issue myself. In Lincoln, they have a county council, yet when you ring them back, you end up speaking to Basildon Council. Quite puzzling, really. Just a word of caution!LincolnBasildon Council11 yearsI received a rather dubious call on my home phone, with someone claiming to represent Lincoln City Council. They insisted they were aware of an accident I’d been involved in and wanted to discuss a potential claim. However, this was utterly false. To make matters worse, the caller's accent was quite thick, and I struggled to comprehend him at all. After a few moments of confusion, I politely said I couldn’t continue the conversation and hung up.Lincoln City Council11 yearsApologies, but the area code is actually associated with Basildon in Essex, rather than Southend or Southampton.BasildonEssexSouthendSouthampton11 yearsI received a call around midday today from someone claiming to represent Southampton Council.Southampton CouncilSubmit Your Own Report (01268 533333)
