This number said they were from some loan company. They were pretty pushy with me, so I ended up blocking the number and reported it to the phone provider.

I've heard claims that they're Fonehouse, but honestly, I doubt it. They seem to push a phone on you, and before you know it, you're sending back the priciest model they delivered. In the end, you're left staring at a three-year contract and nothing to show for it. What a right faff!

Absolute bloody scam! What a waste of time, I have no clue why they even bother calling. Such a pain in the neck, i### is the worst!

Got called about five times within an hour. Didn’t pick up any of them, just waited to see if they’d leave a voicemail. Nothing came through, so I’m guessing it’s a scam and have gone ahead and blocked the number.

Got a call from someone saying they were with Citizens Advice asking about energy providers. Definitely a scam, just trying to fish for your details. Would say steer well clear if you get one of these calls!

I’m the same, never pick up if it’s a number I don’t know! Like, why would anyone? If they’re important, I figure they’ll leave a message and then I can choose what to do next.

They keep ringing and I just don’t pick up, probably one of those dodgy scams like always.

Loads of women, soundin' like they're from somewhere up north west, have been ringin' me, claiming they're from Citizens' Advice. They keep askin' about my energy supplier and other stuff. Some days I've had about five calls and I've told them I'm tied up and can't do their survey, but they just keep on phoning. I really don't think Citizens' Advice would be that pushy. This has been happenin' for about a week now. Surely, they can be tracked down, right?

It seems someone was masquerading as though they were from Defra, and they had all my personal information like my name and address. They claimed they were investigating my risk of flooding. I let them know that when the floods hit, it's not just me who’s in trouble, but countless others too. Honestly, just go away!

I received a totally genuine phone call today. They didn’t request any personal details at all. It was an inquiry conducted on behalf of the Civil Aviation Authority, focused on how COVID-19 has affected air travel.

I’m representing the local council in West Yorkshire, tasked with examining and understanding the lifestyle choices and behaviours of residents throughout the pandemic period and beyond. They are not requesting any personal details, nor is there any sales pitch involved. It's a completely genuine inquiry.

Got a call from 01615283825 today. When I picked up and said hello, there was silence for ages. Eventually, someone muttered hello back, but then just hung up without explaining what they wanted. Honestly, if they don’t say why they’re ringing, it just feels like a total waste of time! So frustrating!

I rang the number only to be met with a pre-recorded message stating that: 1. I was being reached out to by a market research firm and 2. They comply with GDPR regulations. However, the absence of the company’s name in the message raises my eyebrows. I'm left feeling quite sceptical and wary of the so-called legitimacy of this call.
