I received a call from a man speaking with an Indian accent, who appeared to be working from a call centre. It seems he has several different numbers at his disposal. I’ve told him repeatedly to cease contacting me, yet the nuisance calls keep coming. Ultimately, I had no choice but to block his number.

Got a ring from some dodgy Indian call centre! They keep switching up their numbers. I've blocked all of them and made a report to Action Fraud.

I've been getting calls from this number a lot. The first time I answered, nobody said a word. Then they called again, but I ignored it since I don’t usually pick up numbers I don’t recognise. Just a couple of minutes later, they tried ringing me once more.

I kept gettin loads of calls every day from this really persistent saleswoman. Even after I told her I wasn’t interested, she wouldn’t stop. At one point, she asked if I got what she was saying and when I admitted I didn’t really understand, she took it like I was still keen or summat. Eventually I had to just hang up on her, but they still kept ringin back afterwards!

I wasn’t home when this number rang, so I missed it. Had to look up where Launceston is - never heard of it before! Seems like just another dodgy lot trying their luck. I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number. Honestly, BT should step up and deal with these pests who cause so much hassle for folk!

Phone call claiming to be from BT but totally fake. They get quite rude if you refuse to go along with their nonsense. Avoid them!

Today I got a phone call from someone who said he was from BT Out Reach, claiming there was an issue with my BT broadband. He wanted me to check my computer’s speed but I told him my PC was off and that I was heading out, so I just said goodbye and ended the call.

I honestly don’t have much new to say compared to what others have said before. These phone calls come through way too often, even though I’m on the TPS list. They still ring almost every day! It’s really annoying, so I just hang up straight away now to try and avoid the hassle.

I picked up and joked, "It's finished, where do you want me to dump the body?" Then the line went dead on them.
