6 daysI answered but there was silence, so I just ended the call. Looked up the number afterwards and decided to block it.13 daysI answered with a quick ‘hello’ since it didn’t look like a mobile number, but there was no reply, just dead silence on the other end.14 daysGot two calls this morning but they never left a message. Makes me wonder what tiny fraction of calls to home landlines actually aren’t from scammers or annoying telemarketers - for me it feels like maybe 2% tops.24 daysGot a call on my landline but the caller didn’t leave any voicemail. Looked it up here and it definitely doesn’t seem like a genuine call.29 daysSo on 26 May 2026 at about 1.34pm, I got a call from a number with a Liverpool area code. I reckon the code’s faked since they use codes from all over the UK. They didn’t leave any voicemail either. These scammers don’t bother looking at the TPS list and usually don’t bother to leave a message. Blocking them doesn’t really help much either, since they just switch the last digit and call from a similar bunch of numbers.LiverpoolUKTPS30 daysDidnt recognise the number so I just let it ring out.Didnt1 monthThis one’s a pretty sneaky scammer for sure. I tried to block the number after getting the call, but it turns out it was already on my blocked list. Seems like the call isn’t actually coming from the number BT is showing!1 monthCalled claiming to be from Virgin Media, but the number didn't match up at all. After dealing with Virgin loads, I can tell this couldn’t be one of their official call centres, the area code was totally off. Not falling for it again.Virgin MediaVirgin2 monthsThey said they could switch my old copper line to a digital one for less, but I’d already told them I’d sorted it out.2 monthsIn just the last couple of weeks, I’ve had that number ring me up three separate times - so irritating!2 monthsGot a call from a landline, picked up but no one said a word. Instantly felt like it was one of those dodgy scams.2 monthsThe caller used my name and asked if it was really me. Then they said have a nice day and told me to keep smiling before hanging up. It felt really odd. The only thing I can guess is it might be some sort of scam to capture your voice for voice recognition or something along those lines.2 monthsGot a call from some telemarketer guy, he asked me how I was doing. I said fine and then he just ended the call straight away. Bit rude if you ask me.2 monthsI picked up the phone and the caller just ended the call right away.2 monthsI got a call from a bloke who said he was William and was ringing on behalf of a charity. Then suddenly he just hung up on me.William2 monthsThere was this bloke with a proper English accent who kept saying hello like four times, and I did the same back. After that, he asked if I could hear him, and I told him yes. Then he asked how I was doing today, I said I was alright. He just said that’s good and then ended the call. Weird, really.2 monthsSome bloke from England kept saying hello like four times and I answered back the same amount. Then he asked if I could hear him, I said yeah, and asked how I was. I told him I was alright, he said that was good, then just ended the call. Weird!England2 monthsWhen I picked up, I could hear someone talking quietly in the background, but as soon as I said hello, they just ended the call. Bit strange really.3 monthsI got a call from 01517 050 186 and when I picked up, there was total silence on the other end! It’s happened twice already this week, which I find pretty odd if I’m honest.3 monthsGot a call earlier on. They kept asking an elderly lady, probably in her 70s, to say certain phrases over and over. When she kept asking who it was, they just started singing down the line. Feels dodgy to me, like some kind of trick to copy the voice or something. Definitely fishy!3 monthsGot a call from someone who said they wanted to "go over the choices" cause they’re swapping my old copper landline for fibre soon. I wasn’t convinced, said it wasn’t a good time to chat and asked if they could just send me something in the post. They just dropped the call straight away. Felt a bit dodgy if you ask me.3 monthsI got a call about my home phone, asked who it was from and they said Virgin Media. That was off though, so I just ended the call. Pretty sure it was a scam, really irritating.Virgin Media3 monthsHe mentioned it was about my landline, then just suddenly ended the call.3 monthsEvery time my answerphone finishes, it just stays stuck on a never ending busy signal.3 monthsJust one of those calls where nobody says a word. Blocked them now.3 monthsYesterday I got a call but there was no one on the other end, complete silence.3 monthsI got a call at my 95-year-old mum's place.

It was really annoying.3 monthsSaw the caller ID was newsence, so I just ignored the call.3 monthsThey called but hung up when I didn’t pick up, didn’t bother to say anything or leave a voicemail.4 monthsThey called and hung up after about half a minute, no message left.

Me: Sorry, but could you tell me who this is? Caller: *clicks off* Pretty sure I’ve nailed that “mess with me and regret it” vibe in my voice now.Caller4 monthsAfter a long pause, I heard 'Good afternoon to you' but then the line just cut off. Seems like it was probably a scam call.4 monthsSome Asian lady called me on a Saturday afternoon and when she heard the answerphone, she just hung up straight away.
