Got a call from Uk Choice earlier on 01516606998, really irritating! I've gone ahead and blocked that one plus another number they used. Bet they'll ring back using some other number soon enough.

Not sure who that was, my phone said it might be spam. I usually avoid picking up calls from unknown numbers.

Phone rings, we pick up and then it's just silence.

Been noticing the comments here, even some lately, and gotta say, this is definitely a scam. I’ve been getting calls like these on and off for about four years now. Always the same crap - “hello, is this Mr Jim Ping?” or some close variant. Got two calls just this week, and the one this morning actually woke me up. I was waiting on a call from a possible new job so I picked up, but nope - just told the bloke where to go and then he hung up. If the scammer happens to see this, maybe try a better con or find a proper job, cause honestly, you ain’t very good at scamming.

I chose not to pick up, so now the number’s been blocked.

I used to be able to spot scam calls a mile off, especially when the number had a foreign area code. But recently they've switched to using numbers that look like they're from Manchester. There's no chance these calls are actually coming from Manchester though, it's just so hard to tell nowadays.

I’ve stopped picking up calls from weird regional codes altogether now. It’s so annoying! Why isn’t anyone in the UK telecom sector sorting out this mess with these dodgy numbers being used all over the place? It’s like no one cares about the hassle it causes us.

I keep receiving calls from various numbers, all claiming to be associated with Care UK, and it's getting rather annoying.

Picked up this number and they claimed to be doing a quick survey for a well-known brand. The person on the other end was really pushy, kept telling me not to drop the call and just answer a couple of questions. When I hesitated, they got annoyed and just ended the call. Feels dodgy for sure, especially since the same number rang me the day before pretending to be from Carphone Warehouse.

He didn’t say exactly where he was ringing from, just mentioned he had a couple of questions and promised he wouldn’t bother me again lol. I just ended the call and blocked the number straight away. Heard not long ago that my details might’ve been leaked online through Experian, so this might be linked to that.

Didn't pick up 'cause I didn't know the number, no voicemail to explain, so I just blocked it.

Got a call about some Life Insurance stuff but once I mentioned I’m actually on the board at Royal London, the bloke just cut me off mid-conversation. Bit cheeky if you ask me.

I keep getting calls from someone asking for a Katie Corson. I don’t know anyone by that name and I’m certainly not her. They just hang up after I say that. Such a nuisance!

Yeah, my phone flagged the caller as a *possible scam* so I just left it ringing. They never left a voicemail either. I ended up blocking the number and checked online afterwards. Looks like my number gets targeted on a rotating basis every few weeks. Honestly, this week alone has been nothing but calls I wouldn't dare pick up even if someone offered me money!

I picked up the phone since I was waiting on a call from a Manchester area code, but it turned out to be someone claiming to be from UK Choice. He insisted he wasn’t trying to sell me anything, just had some questions to ask. I told him right away to remove my number from their list and not to ring me ever again.

Got a ring from this number but they never bothered to leave a voicemail. If you’re gonna call and not leave a message, I’m not gonna bother ringing back. Simple as that.

This number called me once but I missed it. When I tried calling back, an answerphone picked up and it sounded like it was from Utility Warehouse.
