Strange experience.8 years[email protected] It's long overdue that the government takes action against these annoying calls.8 yearsGot a call from a woman with a foreign accent, rattling on about a car crash I supposedly had - which never happened. I told her to take my number off their list since I never agreed to share my details, so they must be breaking GDPR rules or something. Not sure if that’s exactly right, but she ended up hanging up on me, so I guess that’s a win!8 yearsMy boyfriend's mum, who is 83, has been getting calls on her home phone. The same number has rung her a few times now, and she’s starting to get really annoyed with it.8 yearsI've got a call blocker set up.

The lady on the other end had an Indian accent and mum struggled to catch everything she said, though she did catch “car accident”. When mum tried to find out who the call was about, the caller just hung up.
