I gave them a ring but didn't pick up since it showed as spam. Seems like the number's been used again though.

Got a call saying it was about Council stuff. When I told them I was working, they asked when would be a good time for a callback. I said there wasn’t one and then the call just ended abruptly.

The call showed up as spam. The guy claimed he was from some research firm and spoke English. I just told him goodbye and ended it.

I got a call from a guy asking for someone else, said he was doing a survey about our local council. I was busy with work, felt it was fishy, so I just ended the call.

My phone showed it as a SCAM caller, so I went ahead and blocked the number. Then I sent a message to my mobile provider asking them to report it to the authorities, since they have the right tools to deal with these scammers.

So this bloke was quite polite at first, asking me to fill out a survey regarding my local council. When I told him the number showed as spam and I was tied up with work, he wasn’t having it. He insisted I ring him back the next day, didn’t really care about my excuse.

A bloke with an English accent called saying he was from some "independent polling firm" and used my seldom-heard name. I told him I wasn't interested, and he took it quite nicely. Honestly, I don’t have time to waste chatting like that no matter what they’re selling.

Got a nice quick ring from someone wanting my views on some changes the Council's thinking about here. Was alright, didn’t take long and they seemed pretty polite about it. Glad I could share what I think.
