Total scam, honestly. Just stick your scams where the sun don’t shine, seriously.

Got a call claiming to do some "local area research". Sounded fishy to me, especially since I'd had a call from a number just like it but ending in 16, not 17. They really wouldn’t give up. I just didn’t want to risk it, so I stopped myself from answering anything - didn’t wanna make it too easy for them to steal my identity.

Total rip off!

They claimed to be doing some kind of survey on local shops. Feels like a scam to me.

Somebody rang me saying they worked for some research company doing a survey for Dacorum Borough Council. They wanted to ask me a few questions but I told them no and asked to be taken off their call list. Despite that, they've been ringing me every day for about a week, always from a new phone number. Most recently it was 01279 801616.
