Got a call from some robotic voice claiming there were two big withdrawals on my bank card. Seemed obvious it was a scam, probably after my banking info. I just ended the call and blocked the number straight away.

Got a call from this number at about 10.09 on Wednesday the 30th of August. The guy said his name was Michael and had an Asian accent. He asked if I owned a washing machine, I told him my mum's still using one of those old plastic tubs which seemed to confuse him a lot. When I gave a loud whistle down the phone and then ended the call, he didn’t seem too pleased. Haven't heard from him again since.

This number kept ringing me up three times today. I told them off every single time, but they just didn’t seem to care. So, I’ve had enough and gone ahead and blocked it.

So at around 6.06 pm, I got a call from 01254 59284, and the person was asking my folks about their age, where they live, and if they're married. Felt kinda odd, to be honest.

Yesterday I got a call from some bloke trying to sell me a new boiler. When I just ended the call, this guy with an Indian accent kept ringing me back about 15 times! Then he started insulting me, calling me all sorts of names like a silly cow. I was fuming, and honestly, I worry about older folks getting these calls, especially since the number looked like it was from Norwich. What a total jerk.

Yesterday I got a call from those clowns. They left a voicemail, calling me by my name but didn’t say anything else. Definitely going to block them now. Caller ID is a lifesaver!

So this guy rings me up and asks if he's chatting to Ms Timothy, then goes on about my washing machine. I tell him I reckon it’s just some prank. He fires back with, "You’re so messed up, lady - have a good one!" and just ends the call. Weird bloke!

Got a call from a lady with an Asian accent claiming she was from some verification team. Then outta nowhere, she started asking if my washing machine was functioning properly. I was like, what does that even have to do with you, and what department exactly? Next thing, she just hangs up on me. Strange!

Got a call today from 0160373979 and my husband picked up. He answered a few of their questions without asking too much. If it was me, I would’ve been more suspicious and tried to get more info before saying anything. They asked if we own a washing machine and if he was older than 51, then they just hung up. My husband tried calling back, but it just didn’t connect. Honestly, he ended up getting a bit of a telling off. Lesson here - never hand out details for free!

I got a call from this number asking if my washing machine was running alright and whether I was over 51. When I questioned why my age mattered for the appliance, the bloke on the other end told me to get lost in the rudest way. I asked the chap, who sounded Indian, to stop swearing, and he just repeated himself, calling me something even worse. Like others, I tried ringing back but was told it was the wrong number. Such disrespectful behaviour, honestly.

They called me like three times today, and loads over the past few weeks too. I picked up at 9 this morning, but no one was there. Same thing happened at 11:05. Then at 1:35, they called about some washing machine issue? Told them to take my number off their list, but an Asian woman just kept rambling, so I ended the call. Honestly, they should just find proper work and stop bothering people! Leave us alone, for goodness’ sake!

Got a call from a woman claiming to provide boilers for families on benefits. She wanted to know if anyone in the house was receiving benefits. This isn’t the first time I’ve had this call. As soon as I started telling her we keep getting calls like this, she just ended the call. Quite annoying really.

Was just coming down from the loft when my phone rang, thought it was someone else. Didn’t get any voicemail or anything. Tried calling back but the number didn’t show up anywhere. So happy I found this site to check what that call was all about - really handy, cheers!

This number supposedly from Norwich called me, a polite Asian lady with clear speech (which is so unusual!) claimed she'd put me through to a UK agent to sort my queries. Then, just silence - pretty much a giveaway it's a scam. All about boilers, apparently.
