3 yearsBeware of scams! I received a call purporting to be from HMRC, inquiring whether I knew about the marriage tax allowance. They then proceeded to inform me that I was eligible for a rebate and asked for my bank details. Stay vigilant!HMRC3 yearsConsistently getting calls from this number; every time I pick up, there’s nothing but dead air on the line.4 yearsI received a call, but it was cut short almost instantly. Shortly after, my phone seemed to go haywire. It was as if someone was attempting to turn on the Bluetooth feature and then, quite bizarrely, a timer was set on my device. I was right there, witnessing the whole strange spectacle unfold.5 yearsThis is totally an HMRC scam as others have said. Loads of us are getting hit by these scam phone calls. I heard Facebook had some kinda security leak, probably phone numbers got stolen by some dodgy hackers, so maybe these scammers grabbed numbers from there. Seems like they’re going after people who are engaged or married with this one.HMRCFacebook5 yearsSome bloke rang up saying he was from the HMRC and told me I could get some kind of refund. Total rubbish, if you ask me. And as for OFCOM, might as well be useless - like a teapot made of chocolate!HMRCOfcom5 yearsGot a call from someone called Kingsley claiming to be from the National Income Allowance at the Inside Revenue. He told me I might get a rebate but refused to send any info in the post, said everything had to be done on the phone or online. Asked loads of personal questions like if I was working and even about my husband, seemed pretty intrusive. Said he’d call back around 5.45pm to speak to my husband too? Feels dodgy to me, not sure it’s legit at all. Could be a scam?KingsleyNational Revenue5 yearsIn just a couple of days, I’ve had this number ring me 5 times. I never pick up my landline, so they have plenty of chances to leave a voicemail. But there’s never anything left, which tells me they’re not legit. Feels more like someone just trying to annoy me.5 yearsSomeone rang me claiming to be from the inland revenue, asked if I knew about the marriage tax allowance. When I said yes, they asked if I’d received my rebate yet. I wanted to make sure they were legit so I asked them to confirm they were really from inland revenue - then they just ended the call.Inland Revenue5 yearsI've been getting calls from this number pretty much every day, sometimes even a couple or three times daily, and it's really starting to bug me.5 yearsI just picked up and they cut off right away.5 yearsSomebody rang me pretending to be from a firm named ‘Inside Revenue’, saying they wanted to check if I qualified for a marriage allowance refund. Seemed a bit dodgy to me.Inside Revenue5 yearsPicked up the phone and this woman starts laughing like crazy, then shouts “can I get off this call now?” and just ends the call. Probably some telemarketer. Happens a lot and they usually just drop the call.5 yearsMost likely an Indian call centre ringing me up! They keep swapping their phone numbers, so there's no point in blocking them since they just call from a different one each time.5 yearsI called back and got some automated response from a stranger speaking with an American accent.5 yearsFor months now, we’ve been getting calls daily from these scam numbers. The one time we picked up, there was this robotic message telling someone we don’t even know to call them back. We’ve blocked the number but it seems they keep trying nonstop every single day.Submit Your Own Report (0161 660 6873)
