3 yearsI was met with quite a raucous sound when I answered the phone, it seemed like a multitude of individuals from overseas were all chattering away simultaneously. On the line was a woman who introduced herself as Christine, claiming to represent UK Benefits. She mentioned that if my heating system was over five years old, I might qualify for free replacement. I decided to hang up without further ado.ChristineUK Benefits3 yearsHad a woman ring me early with a really bossy tone, asked for me by my job title but never said where she was calling from. I was dozing and told her to be quiet since I’d been up working late. She said sorry then just hung up. Funny thing is, someone else in my family got a call from a similar number too, looks like they’re just going down the list from R or something.3 yearsGot a call today from a woman looking for a Mr Robinson. I told her this wasn't the right number. She was really polite about it and quickly said sorry for the mix-up.Robinson3 yearsGot a call from some guy about home repairs, which I definitely hadn't requested. He even used my first name! Did a quick google search and decided to block the number straight away.Google3 yearsI think it was one of those autodialling machines. When I answered, it just cut off right away because I didn’t say anything. I noticed if you don’t respond quickly, it just hangs up. Usually, a legit person will say “hello?” first. I find this really useful to dodge those annoying scam calls! :)3 yearsThis was definitely a scam, don’t trust it!3 yearsNot sure who that was. She said sorry for ringing but just hung up as soon as I asked her name.3 yearsThis lady claimed she'd spoken to me about a year and a half ago but refused to explain why she was ringing now, even though I kept asking her. She just went on about me being busy and said she’d call again later before ending the call.6 yearsWhat a scam, some dodgy muppet from up north tryin to con ya.6 yearsSo this person called asking if I’d been in a car crash. Thing is, I haven’t left my flat for three days and I don’t even drive! How on earth could I have had an accident? What a dodgy scam. When I told them that, the caller just suddenly disconnected. Proper nonsense.7 yearsNo doubt about it, this one’s a total rip-off!!!7 yearsOn 10 June around 6:12 pm, I got a call from 0161 464 6237. A lady named Christine claimed she was calling from UK Benefits and told me I could get free heating if mine was older than 5 years. When I asked her for some details about the firm, she just ended the call. Definitely a bothering call and might be a scam. This sort of thing could be risky for people who are more vulnerable. Wish phone providers would block these unwanted calls before they ring at your place.ChristineUK Benefits7 yearsThis was obviously a call centre, not a real person. I’ve blocked the number now!7 yearsThey just said hi and then cut the call. I've gone ahead and blocked that number now.7 yearsThey rang me five times all through yesterday, but I wasn’t home to answer.7 yearsIt seems like one of those auto dialler things. Try calling it back and hitting 9 to quit, that usually gets the calls to stop.7 yearsThey’ve rung me five times today, all unanswered. When I listened to the voicemail, it was just weird office sounds and what kinda sounded like someone breathing heavily on purpose. Honestly, it’s either just annoying or maybe even a bit creepy. I’ve blocked the number now.7 yearsI keep getting calls from that number, but when I answer there's no one on the line. It’s happening quite a lot recently.7 yearsSeems like some folks don’t really have anything better to fill their day with.7 yearsEvery time I pick up, the call just drops straight away.7 yearsGot a call from a girl named Lisa, sounded like she had a Chinese accent, saying she was from The National Grid. I asked if it was some kind of marketing call, and she suddenly said she couldn’t hear me properly and then just hung up. Definitely a scam, no doubt about it - just liars trying to trick you.LisaThe National Grid7 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from the Benefits department about my boiler heating. It's honestly a total scam. I've told them so many times before to stop calling, but they keep ringing. This time, while I was asking them yet again to remove me from their list, they just cut me off rudely. I've gone ahead and blocked the number now.Benefits7 yearsA bloke with a really thick Indian accent rang me and started off by calling me by my first name, which annoyed me straight away. Then he claimed to be from the "UK Benefits Department." I've blocked these muppets loads of times, but they just keep ringing from new numbers. Told him to bugger off and stop calling me.UK Benefits Department7 yearsGot a ring, but they just dropped the call straight away. Feels dodgy, possibly a scam.7 yearsI got a call about our heating system, and when I told them we don’t have one, they asked how we warm the place. I said we actually don’t, then the bloke just ended the call. Sounded like he had a really strong foreign accent.7 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from UK benefits about eligibility for a new heating system, but I said no thanks.UK Benefits7 yearsThey were asking about benefits, but it totally felt like a scam!7 yearsThey rang me but ended up just hanging up once I picked up.7 yearswe keep the answerphone on 24/7 so if a number’s not familiar we just let it ring out. if they don’t leave any voicemail, like this one, we usually don’t bother returning the call, instead we look up the number on “who called” to decide if it’s a number to block.7 yearsMust be a wrong number, kept calling but no answer at all.Submit Your Own Report (0161 464 6237)
