Every so often I pick up just to mess with them a bit. Told the last caller I’d had a terrible accident and was dead now, but they said I could keep my phone up in heaven. The woman on the other end actually giggled, which was a surprise. Of course, I ended up blocking the number anyway.

Watch out for the car accident rip-off.

What a load of rubbish about the car crash, but gotta say, Ben was super polite and friendly, even when I threw some sarcastic remarks his way. Big respect to Ben, nice one!

Got another call just 10 minutes after the first one. The first call came from a mobile number, which I already reported. They kept going on about my recent accident - really irritating. Both numbers are blocked now.

I missed the call and there wasn’t any voicemail left.

Seriously, avoid calling this number at all costs. It's been popping up everywhere across the UK and it's best to just steer clear.

I’ve had a couple calls from this number already this week - feeling a bit harassed to be honest.

Been getting these annoying insurance accident calls loads, and they switch their numbers all the time. Just in the past few days, I've had calls from 0131 204 8712, then 8713, and even 8714. Proper hassle!

What a bother, this call was just pure hassle.

Got a call from someone claiming I could get compensation for an old injury from an accident. I told them I don’t even drive and just take the bus. Then suddenly, they just hung up on me. Sounds like a total insurance scam to me.

Got another call from them since Friday, absolute nightmare! Just blocked the number once more, can't be dealing with this rubbish.

Someone called me claiming to be from an insurance firm, but the voice had a really strong Eastern European accent. When I asked them what accident they were talking about, the phone just went dead and they never spoke again.

Got a phone call earlier supposedly about a little fender bender I had, but honestly, I haven't been in any accidents. The bloke said he was ringing from an insurance firm, but when I asked him to tell me my car's registration to prove it wasn’t dodgy, he couldn’t. Definitely a scam call, don't fall for it.

Got a call but missed it, no clue who it was from.

I’m so fed up with all these calls about crashes I’ve never been involved in. Most of the blocked numbers that keep popping up on my phone turn out to be insurance scams.

People constantly ringing up about accident claims.

Seriously, don’t ever call this number. It’s been reported all around the UK and seems dodgy everywhere. Better safe than sorry, avoid it.

The phone rang, I picked up, but as soon as I did, the line went dead. Seems like they were hoping I'd ring them back. Not happening!

Some insurance dodgers rang me, so I said yeah, my car’s registration is PI55 0FF and that I’d had a smash where my Bentley burst into flames in the Euro Tunnel. That was enough for them, they just ended the call straight away.

I just ignored it.

Total scammers, watch out!

Got a call from some unknown number so I rang back only to hear that annoying dial-up sound. Pretty sure it's one of those scams.

They mentioned my name and claimed it was in relation to an accident I supposedly had (which, I must say, never actually occurred).

I picked up the call, but they didn't say a word before abruptly ending the call. I've now decided to block the number.

It seems I’ve stumbled upon some sort of mishap, as I’m utterly clueless about what transpired. I don’t recall being involved in any incident, nor do I even possess a driving licence, or do I? Very peculiar, indeed!
5 years
They seemed to know who I was, even had info about a supposed accident of mine. The thing is, I’ve never had an accident at all! Quite puzzling, really.

I don’t possess a vehicle. Cheers, Tom.

It had the unmistakable vibe of a call centre. When I greeted them with a "hello," there was nothing but silence - presumably due to a lag. It’s incredibly frustrating that they opt to use local or mobile numbers for this. Quite exasperating, really! 😡
5 years
How kind of them to check in on me and see how I’m doing post-accident! I mentioned that it happened more than three decades back, and I’m doing absolutely splendid now, thanks for asking! 😉

Received a peculiar call from Auto Assist regarding an alleged accident that supposedly happened "sometime within the last two years." The moment I started probing for specifics about how they acquired my information, the bloke on the other end became rather uncomfortable. He insisted he was the top authority available, yet kept dodging my queries about the exact details they held. It all seemed rather fishy, to be honest. Quite a shifty operation, if you ask me.

I keep receiving calls from this individual, but as soon as I pick up, they just hang up on me. Quite irritating, really!

Persistent nuisance from a caller peddling accident insurance - do make sure to block that number!

I received a missed call from this number. I attempted to return the call, but all I got was a pre-recorded voice stating that the number isn't currently in service. How frustrating! 🙄
5 years
I tend to ignore calls from unfamiliar numbers, and based on the feedback I'm seeing, it seems wise to just block this one.
5 years
Simply go ahead and block that number.

Do these sites that reveal information everyone is already aware of serve any real function? I genuinely wish we could put an end to those pesky spam callers as soon as their numbers are flagged as dodgy. Now that would be a step in the right direction!
5 years
As soon as I picked up the call, they just cut off without a word. Quite odd, really!
5 years
It’s awful how these people target older folks, really should be stopped and made to face consequences. They’re just taking advantage of the vulnerable.
