Got calls on both my mobile and landline, no voicemail or anything left. Feels like one of those dodgy scams to me. They always ring during daytime, probably trying to catch pensioners. Weird thing is, we’re all registered with the TPS, so not sure how they’re even managing to get in.

Just got a call with no one speaking, so I hung up and blocked the number. What a pointless and annoying nuisance!

I’m on the Do Not Call list and my details aren’t public but I still keep getting these annoying calls. How do they even get hold of me? It’s so frustrating when you’ve gone ex directory and signed up to the TPS, yet the phone won’t stop ringing!

Got a call first thing at 8 in the morning from someone claiming to be United Benefits. They weren’t trying to sell anything, just wanted to ask some questions. Strange thing is, they already knew my name and where I lived.

This morning at about eight, I got a call from this number but didn’t pick up. My phone usually flags possible scams these days, and this one’s popped up a few times before, sometimes with just a digit or two different. If I had answered, they’d definitely know I’m aware of the game. Honestly, I hate robbers - such awful people. Doing that stuff while hiding behind calls or emails is even more pathetic, real cowards and crooks 😤! They better watch out, cos if I catch them, they won’t be able to use a phone or speak ever again - that’s for sure!

This morning about 8am, I got a call from a woman with a strong Indian accent who said her name was Sandra. She claimed to be from some benefits office and said she wasn’t trying to sell me anything, just wanted to explain something quickly. I ended the call 'cause I couldn’t make out what she was saying at all. Honestly, who rings that early? Definitely sounded like a scam to me!

Got a call at like 7:45 on a Saturday, sounded just like one of those call centre jobs. The guy said it wasn’t a sales pitch and only needed a minute of my time. But when I asked what firm he was ringing from, he just hung up on me. Proper rude!

Woke up early this morning in India, called at 7:41 AM but no answer. Looking forward to tucking into some beef stew later, should be delish!

I picked up but stayed quiet because there was a lot of noise behind them. Then the person just hung up.

Got a call at 7.56 on a Saturday morning and it was marked as SPAM. I ignored it and let it ring out. Honestly, who calls so early on a weekend? It’s so unfair. Imagine an older person getting startled and rushing to answer, maybe even falling over. These scammers really need to be stopped for good!

I picked up but all I could hear was a really loud crackling sound, no one spoke.

Got a call from this number two times today, both times I picked up but they just ended the call straight away.

I didn’t pick up. Honestly, who rings this early on a Saturday except some foreign call centre? Seeing the post above about asking who’s calling - don’t say anything if it’s from an unknown number. These AI things can grab a single sentence, copy your voice, and then try to scam you and your loved ones.
