Got a missed call from this number earlier, but no voicemail or anything left. Didn't pick up either.

I normally don’t pick up calls at this hour since it’s nearly always some cold caller. This time, the phone kept ringing for more than a minute, which is unusual because they tend to hang up quickly. When I finally did answer, there wasn’t much of a voice, just this loud hissing noise. Tried talking but no one replied.

Right, so this joker who rang me a couple days back getting blasted with ABBA came back today, but this time I had The Righteous Brothers blaring. Honestly, it’s like I found the perfect way to deal with these annoying pests. The call dropped super fast. Cheers, Alexa!

So this guy rang up saying he was conducting a survey, right? I told him I wasn’t really bothered. Then he tried to convince me I didn’t know the purpose of his call. I just told him I wasn’t interested and hung up. Didn’t hear from him again after that.

So, I jotted down the name they gave: "UK Property Research" just to be sure for my complaint. The woman on the phone said they were asking a few questions to homeowners to see if they could get a grant for home improvements. It was definitely a spam call from the UK, and the lady sounded English. When I asked why they hadn’t checked if I was on the TPS list, she didn’t really have an answer.

Just got a call from an 0161 number claiming to be about government home improvements. I’m on the TPS list but it feels pointless - these dodgy calls never seem to get cracked down on, it’s like shouting at a storm. So annoying!

Had one of those scam calls again, I just ended the call right away - sounds like another government funding trick.

Got a call just before midnight, about 11:59pm, but I was already in bed and didn't bother answering. I’ve blocked that number now, but lately loads of calls keep coming in from 0161 codes. I keep blocking each one, but they always change the digits. Blocking every 0161 number would stop these calls, but it’d also mean missing proper calls too, so really not sure what to do.

They've rung me a bunch while I wasn’t home. When I picked up today, no one said a word, but I could hear chatter in the background before they just ended the call.

Had me phone ring out of the blue while I had ABBA's Voulez Vous cranked up full volume on my Alexa. The dodgy caller probably reckoned it was some sort of answering machine and hung up sharpish. Honestly, I hope that noise gave them a right shock. Kinda makes me think of a new way to mess with these scam artists and shut them down for good. That’d be a proper win. Got a few dodgy numbers saved too, seems like a real problem brewing.

I keep getting calls for someone who doesn’t live at my address, not sure why they keep ringing me.

Got an automated answer when they rang and the person on the other end never said who they were. So basically, they spent money on a call that went absolutely nowhere! Haha, what a result!

Sounds like a call centre to me, you can catch them chatting when they’re dialing various numbers. And once someone picks up, they just block your number.

Some bloke called me, said he was Grant and claimed to be from UK Property Research. I didn’t even bother, just ended the call straight away. Pretty sure it was some kind of scam.

They claimed to be from some Home Improvement Group checking if I was eligible for funding. I told them cold calling is against the law. When I asked for their number, they just said I could find it online. Definitely a scam.

Got a call from 01617111145 at 10:28 this morning. I didn't pick up cause I was screening my calls, and they didn’t bother to leave a message. Bloody scammer again, really annoying! It's just Monday and already got a few of these calls. Let’s hope it doesn't get worse.

I never rang those UK properties, dunno why they keep phoning me. Wish they'd stop pestering me!

Got a call from someone claiming to be with UK Properties, saying they had some funding options available for me. Honestly, not sure if it's legit or just another scam. The number they used was 222 or something like that, and I’m still a bit confused about the whole thing.

They called me but I couldn't answer, then when I tried to call back it was busy every time. I’ve just blocked the number now.

just looked up the number and figured it’s a scammer. i was in the middle of getting my hair cut so couldn’t pick up. honestly, people like that are so annoying, with all the tech we have now there’s no excuse not to apologise properly if you really meant it.

I’m a bit confused about this number, not sure if it’s actually Sky. We spoke with them a couple of days back, then right after the call I got a message on my phone asking for feedback about Sky.

The person who called just dropped the call as soon as they couldn’t find the person they wanted. When I tried ringing the number back, it just said the line isn’t active anymore. So yeah, the caller ID isn’t trustworthy at all.
