They keep ringing me up, sometimes even using dodgy mobile numbers that look fake. It happens loads of times every day. My phone has started blocking their calls on its own, but whenever I peek at the blocked calls just to make sure I'm not missing anything important, it's always that Gamma Telecom Holdings lot. Proper annoying!

This number plus about ten others have been blowing up my phone all day, always about some life insurance thing. I've never signed up for anything like that, so no clue how they manage to call me twice within a minute! Got like eight missed calls today alone, from both my mobile and landline. It's getting ridiculous.

Just got a call again from a Manchester 0161 number, the last one ended with 5519. Seems like these people have a whole set of numbers they’re using. It rang briefly and then went quiet, no voicemail or anything. I’ve blocked it and flagged it on the Action Fraud site as a scam or phishing attempt.

Got a call earlier, I didn’t answer and ended up blocking it. Like a few others have mentioned, they just keep calling from different numbers though. I’m just going to keep blocking each one as they come through.

Has anyone else got a voucher from this? Just wondering if it’s the same for everyone or if I’m just lucky!

Received a bothersome call where there was silence on the other end when I picked up. It feels as though it's some sort of automated system attempting to identify active phone numbers, only to peddle them off to various businesses later. I've gone ahead and reported the number and blocked it for good measure.

On the 29th of April 2021, I got a call on my mobile from an unknown number at about 4.55pm but I didn't pick up. Later, I looked it up on this site and it seems the number now goes straight to voicemail. Big thanks to everyone who shared their info before!

Had a call from some dodgy scammers I reckon, probably from India. What a nightmare!

I got a call on my work line just a short while ago, which is the only reason I picked up. After quite a bit of pestering, "Russell" finally told me who he was and what this was about. Apparently, I supposedly took part in some online survey last year (vague as hell). I told him straight up I didn’t do any surveys last year ‘cause I was looking after my dad who was really ill. Instead of an apology, “Russell” just started laughing weirdly and asked why I sounded so upset. When I asked to speak to his manager, he just hung up on me. He said he was from Best Comparisons, by the way.

I never pick up these calls since it's obvious a scam, but they just keep ringing. When I block one number, another pops up starting with 0161. It’s like they just won’t give up.

I don’t know how they got hold of my number since it’s only for emergencies and I never share it, even my mates don’t know it. I only discovered the call when I turned on my phone to see the battery status. There weren’t any messages left or anything.

Got a call from an Indian woman who kept asking if I was my husband - bit odd since I’m a woman. Told her not to chat to me, so I couldn’t hear any of the scam stuff. Just blocked the number straight away.

Yet another nuisance has been pestering my phone, inquiring about my husband by name. I simply stated that I have no time for foolishness. Number now firmly blocked!

Got a call from some scammers claiming I'd done a survey and asking if my vouchers had arrived. I told them I never do surveys 'cos of all the scams, and then they started arguing about how they'd got my number. After a bit of back and forth, they just hung up on me.

Another scam, for sure. I don't pick up these calls from Manchester - they keep changing the number just a bit each time they ring.

Got a call from some dodgy lot claiming I’d done a survey and asking if I’d got my vouchers. I told them I don’t bother with surveys cause of all the scams. They started arguing about how they even got my number, and after going back and forth for a bit, they just hung up on me.

This number has phoned me loads of times, often a few times daily. I usually ignore the calls and block them, but they always switch to a new number afterwards. Looks like they’ve got a whole bunch of numbers like 5520, 21, 22, 23, etc. Fingers crossed they run out of spare ones soon. 😤😤
