10 yearsGot a call from a young guy saying he could lower my phone bill. He said he was with uSwitch and knew my current provider info. When I asked for specifics, he sort of guessed my provider but didn’t know how much I usually pay each month. I tried to end the chat and hung up. He rang back two more times, was really pushy and quite disrespectful.10 yearsPicked up because it wasn't a blocked number, and some woman with a foreign accent answered. She didn't know my name and just asked, "Is this the phone's owner?" Said it was about my gas and electric supplier. When I told her I was busy at work, she just hung up. Feels like it was probably a bit of a scam.10 yearsJust saw I missed a call.10 yearsHonestly, it baffles me how some folks have the time to ring strangers. It's a bit pathetic, really. They ought to find something worthwhile to do instead of bothering others!10 yearsI keep getting calls from this number, but when I pick up, there’s absolutely no one on the line. It’s quite baffling, really!10 yearsGot a call today, I stayed quiet and so did the person on the other end. Checked them out here and yep, just another telemarketer. They really should find something better to do!10 yearsGot a cold call about switching energy suppliers, they said they could find me a better deal. When I asked for more details, they wanted my card details right away to set up direct debit. I said could they send info by post, but they said no, only email. When I asked again for the name of the new supplier, they kept pushing for my card number. I finally told them I wasn’t some kind of magician and they weren’t Santa Claus, then they hung up after about 15 mins of nonsense.Father Christmas10 yearsGot a cold call about my electricity supplier, they claimed they could get me a better deal. After a quick look, they said yes, so they wanted my card details to start a direct debit. I asked for something in writing but they said they only send info by email. When I asked again, they pushed for my card number, and when I asked the name of the new supplier, they still just wanted my card details. I eventually told them I wasn’t some magical creature and he wasn’t Santa Claus before he hung up after about 15 minutes of nonsense.Santa Claus10 yearsDodgy bloke called Butt-Head K###an Q###um from Leicester up to his usual scams again. Be careful dealing with this prat. Seen him around Spinney Hills, Evington, and Highfields Leicester in 2016.LeicesterSpinney HillsEvingtonHighfields10 yearsGot a call today at 15:33, the person spoke English but when I asked about their company they couldn't give a straight answer and just ended the call. I tried calling back but the number isn’t recognised.

When I asked if I could take a message, he quickly jumped in saying my phone bill could be cut and he needed to speak to the account holder. I told him if he was really from the phone company, he'd know who the bill payer is. He then said the discount wasn’t from the phone company, so I told him it definitely wasn’t and hung up. He kept arguing after I ended the call.10 yearsGot a call today around 4.30 pm from a bloke claiming he could lower my phone charges. He knew my name and where I live.
