6 monthsI got a call from a lady with a South Asian accent, she was saying something about my phone line needing to be connected to the internet.6 monthsPhone rang, I picked up but no one spoke. Thought it was some kinda spam, so I just blocked the number.6 monthsGot a call from a number that wasn’t local, my husband took it. There was a strange foreign accent, they started off asking how he’s doing, he just replied 'fine, what do you want?' Then they asked for me by name, but as soon as he handed me the phone over, they just ended the call. It gave me the heebie-jeebies they knew my first name already. We usually answer these out-of-area calls since hospitals sometimes ring from odd numbers. Seems like one of those dodgy insurance scams to me, some poor soul’s bound to fall for it. Absolute muppets.6 monthsGot one of those calls about some "insurance for home appliances" today. Definitely a scam tryna pull a fast one. Watch out, folks!6 monthsOn 15th December 2025, around 9:47 in the morning, I got a call from an unknown number. They didn’t bother to leave any voicemail. Sounds like typical scam or spam behaviour, they never bother looking at the TPS list and don’t leave messages either.TPS6 monthsI picked up the phone but it just hung up straight away.6 monthsI picked up but stayed silent, then it just went straight to a busy tone. Looks like it’s probably one of those call centres. I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number now.6 monthsThis number rang me and when I picked up, no one spoke on the other end. It seems like a call centre does these sort of calls, probably using automated systems that then patch you through to one of their staff. I'd watch out for these calls, they feel a bit dodgy. Hope you have a lovely Christmas and a great New Year ahead!6 monthsGot a call showing up as a nuisance so I just let it ring out, didn’t pick up.6 monthsWe got a call from some bloke called Christopher who was trying to check if we actually owned the number and if we had a contract with them. It was a bit odd, to be honest.Christopher6 monthsWoman talking about reducing my repair bill for the landline number she was calling me on;it was all nonsensical as I don't make regular payments such as this. When I challenged her and suggested she got a job that wasn't about scamming people she told me not to lecture her and hung up. For me that confirmed it was a scam!6 monthsReceived a call on my home phone today, 25th December 2013 around 5:50pm. Didn’t recognise the number and they didn’t leave any voicemail. Won’t be bothering to ring back, just wiped it from my call list.6 monthsJust had a call where the guy wanted me to verify if it was my number, and then he hung up right after I said yes. Made me think it might be someone from BT or something. Pretty weird, kind of like what others mentioned before.BT6 monthsAnswered the call then they hung up straight away. Honestly, after looking at their history here, I’m not shocked one bit!6 monthsI ended the call as soon as I picked up the phone.6 monthsHad a dodgy call claiming to be from BT, watch out everyone!BT8 monthsGot a caller on my landline who just wouldn’t take no for an answer, kept ringing even after I said I wasn’t interested in talking to him.8 monthsCalled a couple of times trying to get an older person to register for some plan, saying they were verifying his phone connection. They also left a voicemail with a weird series of sounds like 'da, d, da, d,d, da' repeated loads. Looks like they had nothing more important to do!Submit Your Own Report (01586 556697)
