Some people called saying they were eye specialists promoting laser surgery, sounded a bit fishy to me. They got pushy and asked for my bank info, so watch out and never share your details over the phone. Stay safe everyone and fingers crossed you don’t get scammed! 🤞

I messed up by putting my details on a Lasik form, and now they won’t stop calling. I ignored them, didn’t pick up, and ended up just blocking the number.

This Glasgow number, 01412229979, keeps calling me at all sorts of random times. I let it go to voicemail once but there wasn’t even a message left. After that, I decided to block it.

Got a call that showed up as a medical scam warning, but it turned out to be Optical Express. They rang me like 4 times within 10 mins, so I finally picked up. Honestly, it was a legit call meant for me, though I reckon they probably use that same number to promote LASIK too.

Had about 4 calls yesterday and just got 5 more today, all silent with no voicemail. Looks like another dodgy laser eye treatment scam. Thankfully, this app let me block them quick!

I got a call from this number, thought it might be Optical Express like others said, but if it is, why aren’t they saying anything? The phone just rings loads and no one talks. I ended up telling whoever it was to get lost, absolute waste of time.

Got calls from these annoying people twice now and I just let it ring out both times, no response from me.

The minute I noticed the call was linked to a medical scam, I thought about that optical laser treatment ad I saw on YouTube. After digging a bit more, it’s clear it’s all connected to that laser treatment stuff. Lately, I've bumped into two different investment scams that somehow use AI, and now this medical one pops up too. Honestly, I reckon YouTube really needs to start checking the adverts they’re putting in front of us properly.

After filling out a form about LASIK, I got loads of calls. From what I’ve read from others, if you answer, they try to charge you for a “free” consultation. Honestly, stuff like this just puts me off Optical Express completely. I’ve blocked the number now.

Really disappointed with Optical Express. I made an enquiry a couple of days back and since then, I've been bombarded with scam calls. It’s awful that they’re handing out phone numbers like that.

I was interested in laser eye surgery and tried to book a free consultation. When they asked for my card info, I got suspicious and didn’t provide it. Feels like it might be a scam to me.

I’ve never signed up for anything related to laser eye treatment, yet these people keep calling me non-stop, even though I’ve made it obvious I’m not interested and never will be. It’s baffling how they got my number since I’ve never filled out any kind of form. They ring at the worst times, usually very late, and never bother to leave a voicemail. This has been going on, off and on, for more than a month now. I’ve had enough and just went ahead and blocked their number because they obviously don't understand when someone’s not keen.

They just kept pushing, wouldn’t take no for an answer, trying to get me to agree to a £595 charge per eye. It felt like all they cared about was the money. I didn’t sign any contract, so now they’ve blocked me. They really need to quit trying to scam people, especially when they first told me it would only be £99.

Got a call on a Sunday and they left a voicemail. All I could catch was “project manager” before it went quiet. I’d just come from an Optical Express eye test I’d arranged on the internet. It’s crazy how these scammers seem to know what’s going on with us. Definitely blocking that number now.

If you've ever considered laser eye surgery, you might recognise this number - it’s from Optical Express. They’re pretty persistent; if you don’t pick up, they’ll ring back again and again. The first few times I got calls from them, I thought it might be some kind of medical scam because of what I read on here.

Got a call from Optical Express who already had my name, but they asked for info like for data security. They wouldn’t say why they were ringing until I gave my full name, date of birth, first line of my address and postcode. When I said no, the person just hung up.

Today, 4th March 2025, at about 14:45, I spotted a “Google Ad for Private Eye Surgery”. After that, I got two calls from them in just 3 hours. I’m pretty sure it’s a scam. If they ring again, I’ll tell them to piss off.

I signed up for this optical eye test thing after seeing an ad on YouTube, but right after, I got a call from this number. The call just ended as soon as I picked up. Since the ad wasn’t from a verified source, it could be dodgy. The way the call cut off as soon as I answered definitely makes me think this isn’t a very legit operation.

Why even bother with these calls if you can't call back (they always hide the number) and it just hangs up straight away? This keeps happening all the time from some unknown caller, and I can't seem to find any way to block or stop it. Maybe the only option left is to get a new phone number? It's so frustrating!

I got a call from this number and it turned out to be Optimax Laser Eye Surgery. They’re a legit company, but they usually only ring if you’ve made an enquiry on their website or social media first. They don’t leave voicemails either, which makes people think it’s a dodgy call when it’s not.

Got calls off them like 7 times over the weekend, both Saturday and Sunday. I did register to get some details about laser eye surgery through Optical Express, but I definitely asked for the info to come by email. Plus, I’m nowhere close to Scotland, so this is just annoying me now. Going to block the number for good.

Seriously, don’t consider going for laser eye surgery without getting a proper chat with your eye specialist first. Doing it all online sounds like a recipe for trouble. And those scam calls or messages? Make sure you report every little bit to the police through their official channels. You can find clear guidance on the National Cyber Security Centre’s website under their PHISHING guides here: ‘https:// www.ncsc.gov.uk/ collection/ phishing-scams’. They explain how to flag dodgy emails, texts, phone calls, dodgy sites, ads, and loads more.

They rang me and just left a voicemail with nothing said. Right after, I noticed my bank tried to charge me twice within seconds! Fortunately, my cash is in my savings account, so the transactions didn’t go through. I'm pretty sure it was connected to those calls. I signed up for a free consultation for laser eye surgery and gave them my phone and email, but how on earth did they get hold of my bank info? No idea!

So, this number kept ringing me but I ignored it both times. When I checked, it says it's based in Glasgow and could be a scam. Just a heads up, be careful if it rings you!
