Strangely enough, this number rang me out of the blue today (9th April 2025), even though from what I’ve seen in the reviews, it hasn’t been active for around three years. They didn’t bother leaving a voicemail, probably thrown off by my call screening setup that asks for a name before connecting. I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number now, which is a shame because I was enjoying a few quiet months without any random cold calls... guess my luck’s not changed!

This number called me on Monday, 28th February 2022, at around 8:18 in the evening. The person on the line had a British accent and gave his name as John. He said he was launching a new business focused on advice for Wills, Trusts, and Legacies. He mentioned he used to work in accounting but now is with something called the Later Life Group. John admitted he wasn’t very tech-savvy and couldn’t do face-to-face meetings right now. He asked if I’d be interested in that kind of service and said someone might ring me back in about an hour. I told him I didn’t know anything about him or where his company was located and asked where he was based. Then he suddenly hung up. Later that day, the same number rang again at 12:36 in the afternoon, but I didn’t pick up.

They said they were from "around here" but the number showed up as Manchester and I live in Wales. Definitely a scam.

Got a call from someone called "John" trying to sell will writing, trusts, and all that legacy stuff. Told him I wasn't interested and just ended the call. Probably should've asked where he got our number from, especially since I used to be a director.

I called the number and got a recorded message saying I was contacted today by some Marketing company - i didn’t quite catch the name - about will writing stuff or something. They said if you want to stop getting calls, press 1. Might be one of those scams trying to make a quick buck, so I’d avoid pressing anything and just block the number instead.

So rude! I got a call from this number while I was waiting for my MRI results from a hospital in Manchester, and I was feeling pretty anxious. When I tried to explain why I was struggling to speak, they just hung up on me. Such a lack of kindness and understanding. I called the number back from my home phone and luckily got the same bloke again. I told him that his behaviour was unacceptable considering what I was going through. Honestly, such a disrespectful and nasty person.

She started off by asking for me by name. When I told her to take my number off the list because I’m fed up with these annoying calls, she got all defensive and insisted it wasn’t nonsense, saying I didn’t even know the reason for her call.
