Got a call from someone named Andrea, sounded Asian and had a Manchester number, but the call was actually coming from some dodgy third world place. She tried to con me over some bogus drainage cover deal. I told her my drain cover was perfectly fine from what I saw and then she just cut me off. What a waste of time!

Got another call from this number but no one said anything and they left no message on my voicemail, so it's just another scam attempt for sure.

I got a call earlier today, 06/02/2024, about some drainage cover. I told them I didn’t remember signing anything and asked when it was supposed to be. They said it was last year, but I told them I couldn’t be involved - I’d just been let out of prison for fraud a few days back. The line went dead for a moment, then they were like, ‘Are you joking, madam?’ I just said why would I make that up and ended the call.

They keep ringing me non stop. Tbh, I just hang up every time. Something about “Drain” or maybe it’s “dream cover” or sumthin like that. Weird!

They called, saying they were with Sky TV and it had something to do with my subscription for phone, TV, and all that.

I got a call once and the person on the other end claimed they had picked up a call about train tickets from London to Edinburgh worth more than £300! They said if it was me, I should press 1 to talk to their agent. I told them straight away that I wasn’t the person and to stop hassling me with these calls. I’ve got no plans to visit Edinburgh anyway!

Got a call from a lady speaking with a strong Indian accent, claiming to offer drainage insurance but it sounded dodgy. She asked for my bank information, definitely a scam.

They kept ringing my elderly mum on 02/07/2024, like 6 times over 3 days, according to her BT call protect logs. Thankfully the calls never went through since we had it blocked. When I tried to call back the number, it said it’s not a valid number, so they must be hiding their real caller ID. Looks like a proper scam and definitely not something you want to deal with.

They've rung me 4 times today while I was knackered at work. Just as I was googling the number, they buzzed again, but this time it was dead quiet on the other end. Honestly, I was almost expecting to give some poor overseas call centre a piece of my mind.

Didn’t get any voicemail. I know this number, it’s one of those scam callers. Best to block it and report.

Looks like a scam related to drainage issues. I'm confused though, why does this site list the general user rating for this number as Negative when loads of folks have flagged it as red and risky? Seems a bit off to me.

Had a call from someone claiming to be Clear Water Co. They tried to get my bank info to put a direct debit in place before sending any paperwork over. Once I mentioned I’m on the TPS list, they quickly ended the call. Definitely felt like one of those drainage scams.

I got a call from this number about some discount on an appliance insurance, which they said I supposedly have. The lady who rang was pretty pushy, kept saying I had the policy but couldn’t say how long it’s been or even what items were covered. Honestly, she sounded quite off and might easily confuse older people like me. Would definitely be careful if you get a ring from them.

Please, do not pick up - it’s definitely a scam call.

They called me by my first name and even mentioned an old address of mine. They claimed it was about housing problems but it was total nonsense, like they had some outdated info from who knows where. Definitely a scam, watch out for these con artists!

Had a call about some social housing repairs. They already knew my first name, which was a bit creepy. I asked how they got my number since I’m on the TPS. They just snapped, "That’s not something you need to worry about, mate. Bye," and then they cut me off.

O2 spotted the number and marked it as spam, blocking the call before it even reached me. Then they sent me a text to let me know what they’d done. Pretty impressed with O2 for that, haha.

My mum’s phone keeps getting calls marked as spam, so she’s been ignoring them. But this week alone, she’s had three calls like that even though we reported and blocked the numbers. It’s really annoying!

Got a call from a woman about Social Housing Repairs and she already knew my first name. The thing is, I’m not involved with social housing at all. When I asked her how she got my details, she just ended the call straight away. Pretty sure it was a scam. I’ve blocked the number now.

I’m shocked these scammers can get away with this, calling and using your name like that! They tried saying something about housing. It’s scary thinking about how easy it is to trick vulnerable folks. And get this - the call was from a South African number, but it showed up as a Manchester one! How’s that even possible?
