Some guy with a thick Indian accent called, saying he was from UK Energy and asked about my heating setup. I told him it was a cold call, then he claimed he was ringing on behalf of the government. I told him it was illegal as I’m on the no-call list but he kept insisting the government wasn’t bound by that rule. So I just ended the call.

Received a call regarding green energy initiatives linked to the UK government. The caller had a pronounced Indian accent which made it quite difficult for me to follow what they were discussing. As soon as they began probing about my current heating arrangements, I decided to hang up. It felt like a rather awkward situation!

They phoned me today around 1:50 pm. I left it ring about 30 times thinking maybe it was something important. The moment I picked up, they hung up straight away! Typical, fooled me again. Now they’ve got proof I was home at 1:50. Adding this one to my blocked numbers!

Just got a call from some bloke named David, really friendly and helpful fella. He said he’d sort me out with a new boiler, loft insulation, and cavity wall insulation all for free. Told me he’d ring back in a couple of days with a senior advisor to sort the rest. Funny how it’s always a David or some typical English name, huh? Anyway, added this number to the blocked list, but it was a good laugh while it lasted!

Just got a call from a bloke named David, actual legend. He told me he’s gonna sort me out with a free new boiler, loft insulation and cavity wall insulation. Said he’ll ring back in a couple of days with a senior advisor to sort the rest. Funny how it’s always a David or some posh English name, huh? Anyway, added this number to the blocked list. Bit of a laugh while it lasted though, lol.

Got a call from someone called David claiming to be from the UK benefits office, but I cut him off straight away. Just ended the call. Caller was an Asian bloke with a thick accent. THIS IS A SCAM, best not to get involved with these calls. The number was 01516014296.

No idea - could hear someone in the background then they just cut off. In 2019 this kinda thing should be banned by now - either the government or BT needs to do something!!!

I've had quite enough of this number ringing me incessantly; I managed to block them, yet they’ve resorted to sending texts now, which I’ve also blocked! It’s baffling how these individuals manage to obtain my mobile and landline details. I'm truly fed up with all the nuisance calls.

I received a call today inquiring about my benefits. I made it clear that I wouldn’t engage with anyone probing into my personal affairs and requested them not to contact me again, as they’d receive the same response. Thankfully, my family has educated me on these sorts of calls!

Got a call yesterday afternoon and then again earlier today, the person had an Indian accent and claimed to be from UK Benefits, trying to get my personal details. I told them, "I don't claim any benefits so please take my number off your list." They just kept saying hello, hello. I ended the call.

No one answered. This is the second time they’ve called asking if I want a new boiler. I told the guy could they fix the Aga instead (I don’t even own one). He was speechless and just ended the call. Hilarious really.

Got a call this morning off some bloke named David, said he was from the UK benefits office in Birmingham. He rattled on ages about some scheme for replacing boilers. Had a bit of time to kill so I asked him loads about what the weather's like there, how long his shifts last and that. After a while he seemed fed up and just hung up. Shame, I never got the chance to tell him to jog on.

I got a call but my phone automatically blocks what it thinks is spam. Bit of a shame, really. I was kinda hoping to have a bit of a laugh with it. It’d be a right laugh to get a call from those 'HMRC' folk threatening to kick off. That’d proper brighten up my day!

Once more these idiots ring from another number, pretending to give a free boiler and heating system swap. I was already annoyed, so I let him have it with a bit of good rude language before hanging up quickly. I've blocked that number, but I’m sure they’ll just try again with a new one.

I got a call from an Asian guy who said he was calling from the UK benefits office. When I said hi, he asked how I was, but I didn’t reply and he just ended the call. It’s definitely a scam, they want your address and bank info. Don’t fall for it, never share your info with strangers.

Sounds like it's coming from some call centre where the call only goes through if you respond with "hello". If you just stay quiet when you pick up, you won't hear a thing and the call just ends on its own.

I picked up the phone and straightaway inquired who was on the line. A chap with a foreign accent replied, claiming he was phoning about my heating system and wanted to know its age. I was not impressed and firmly told him to keep his nose out! My number's registered with the Telephone Preference Service, so I'm guessing this is just some call centre abroad, even though the number appears to be Liverpool.
