I wasnt home when they rang, but from the background noise sounded like one of those call centre things. The bloke just kept going on with his prayers, real strange.

These guys keep ringing pretending they're from our energy company - sometimes British Gas, other times EDF - several times a week. I actually spoke to one bloke who confessed he wasn’t really from the utility firm and said this was how he got by. Claimed he was originally from Pakistan but now based in Manchester. Bit fishy though, since he also said he was calling from the capital city in Manchester! Anyway, no way I'm giving out any personal or bank details to them.

So this bloke from India rings up pretending to be from my electric company. I fibbed to him last time, haha. He kept saying he'd keep calling until I gave him the info because it’s his job or something. Total con, no doubt about it.

This bloke said he was with the electricity firm, trying to check some company info before sending stuff through the post. I told him to just post it without any hassle. He was pretty insistent but I ended up cutting the call short.

Just watched a YouTube clip on handling these scam calls - absolutely hilarious! Can't stop laughing 😂! Check it out here: youtu.be/cak93rb3tz0

In just half a day, I got three calls from the same number. I picked up the first one, like others said, and told the bloke to stop ringing me. Then, just a couple of hours after, the same voice came back, saying they were from Aviva, the insurer of someone who supposedly bumped into me? I've had no accident, so this has to be a scam. I made it crystal clear I didn’t want any more calls. Later on, they tried again, but thankfully no one answered because I was proper annoyed by then.

Got a call from some bloke earlier, sounded like he was in some busy call centre with loads of noise in the background. He greeted me in a really strong Indian accent, asked how I was doing. When I asked what he wanted, he told me I’d been in an accident and that I could claim compensation - which was news to me! Didn’t hang about, said I wasn’t interested and ended the call. Bloody nuisance telemarketers, honestly!

Got a call from some asian bloke, you could hear loads of background noise like an office or something. He kicked off with "how are you today 2" but never said who he was or which company he was calling from. Totally a cold call, felt like harassment to me. My advice: just don't pick up and hang up quick, like I did.

They've rung me twice now. The first call was supposedly about a car crash, which I wasn't involved in. Today they rang again but I didn’t pick up, and they didn’t bother to leave a voicemail either.

Got a call from someone saying they were from ‘accident investigation’ about a crash involving my car. Since I’ve never had any accident, I knew straight away it was some kind of scam. I asked them a couple of times how they knew about my car, careful not to admit I wasn’t in any accident. After that, the person just ended the call.

Got a call from some clueless guy who spoke with an accent about an “accident”. When I asked who he was and which company he was from, he just said “accident helpline”. Seemed dodgy to me.

an asian guy called me asking about a car crash i was involved in about a year back. i told him if he was the real deal, he’d already have the details he wanted. he kept switching up his story and when i wouldn’t say who was driving, he told me to f##k off, not just once but twice. really rude and quite threatening bloke.

I tried ringing them back with 141 first, but it just kept ringing until it suddenly disconnected after around 15 tones! Then I got a message saying the service isn’t available... definitely not a promising indication.
