Got three calls back-to-back within seconds. The first two came from the 01235 area code, which are known to be scammers around here. Then this third one popped up right after I blocked the first two, so I reckon it’s connected. Not totally sure if it was legit, but it definitely felt like another scam attempt.

This guy was super persistent, wouldn’t accept a simple no. As soon as I said I wasn’t interested, he started asking for my postcode and street name. I just ended the call. Honestly, don’t share any details with them!

Yeah, those calls need sorting out for sure. You’ve got a good point there. Not sure what’ll come of it but I guess we’ll find out. They’ve got to quit pretending to be from UK numbers just to scam people. Totally gotta put an end to it.

Got a call from someone saying I qualify for a Medic Alert Alarm based on their records. They quickly started asking loads of personal stuff. I cut them off straight away, told them I didn’t want anything and to take me off their calling list. These are scammers ringing folks even though they’re on the Telephone Preference Service. Best to steer clear of these lot!

I got a call on my landline from 01483979603 about some free medical alert device for folks over 50 who are supposedly "eligible." When I asked where they got my info from, they said local groups. But the moment I pressed for which groups exactly, they just ended the call.

I didn’t say a word at first because I usually don’t start the conversation. The line was dead silent. Maybe I should just play a recording of a modem or fax sound next time and see what happens.

kept getting this automated call from some “medical alert centre” pushing medical alert pendants. whenever i asked where they were located or how they had my details the message just cut out, then it restarted once i stayed quiet. could be legit but seems like a dodgy cold call or scam. best thing is to just block and forget about it.

So, I got a call from someone named John claiming to be from some Medical Alert Centre, pushing me to buy one of their alarm pendants. I was polite and told him I didn't need one right now, but he kept trying really hard to convince me. Honestly, felt like he wasn’t willing to take no for an answer.

Got a call from someone saying it was about a medical alert thing or whatever. They asked me a load of questions, I said no to most of them except when they asked if I’m over 50 and what I’d do if I fell. Felt like one of those sales calls pushing dodgy equipment for old folks. Didn’t hang around, just ended the call.

I got a call that sounded human at first, but it was actually some kind of robot voice pitching a medical alert gadget. I just kept saying “Hello? Hello?” but all I got was the same recorded message over and over. Might need some help with my ears lol. Either it’s a dodgy scam or some pushy sales thing aimed at old folks. Not very honest at all.

So this number called my nan, who's 93, trying to get her to sign up for some free trial of a medical alert thing. The bloke wasn’t rude or anything, but kept pushing quite a bit. He kept switching tactics, but in the end, my nan just politely told him no thanks and ended the call.

Got a call from a bloke named John, said he was with Independent Seniors down in Dorset. He was on about getting me to buy a medical alert pendant or summat. Whenever I asked him stuff, he just dodged my questions. Then he started asking my age and house number, which felt a bit dodgy. I politely told him I wasn’t comfortable giving that info. Reckon it was one of them phishing scams.

I had a rather peculiar encounter with someone trying to peddle a medical alert system. They seemed solely fixated on my home phone number, which was a tad suspicious. When I posed a couple of straightforward questions, like asking for my name or postcode, they utterly faltered and just reverted to their rehearsed sales spiel. To top it off, they couldn't clarify how their system actually tracks falls. While they mentioned the unit itself is complimentary, the ongoing service fees are a hefty £30 to £90 a month, which certainly raised my eyebrows.

some bloke rang me saying he was from a medical alert place. he kept going on about how certain “local groups” said i qualified for a free medical alarm bracelet. when i asked him stuff, he just dodged my questions and kept banging on about how important it was for folks like me who live on their own with health issues. i made it clear i was fine, not on my own, and told him pretty bluntly to get lost. seriously, just hang up, don’t waste your time listening to that rubbish.
