This number’s been ringing me for about a week now. At first I just ignored it cos they never bothered to leave any voicemail. When I finally picked up, they just hung up on me twice. Today, I tried answering but stayed silent, then I heard a woman say ‘hello’, so I said ‘hi’ back and she just ended the call. On my EE phone it’s showing up as National Claims.

Had a rather annoying phone call earlier from a company touting driveway services. Definitely not interested in that!

The voice sounded unfamiliar, so I kept replying with hello, but he just kept asking if I was listening. Definitely a scam.

The call came from a Manchester area code, which is strange because I don’t know anyone living there. Wasn’t really waiting for any calls from that region.

I ended up saying yes to that annoying "Can you hear me?" question without bothering to check who was actually on the other end. Turns out, it was one of those driveway cons. Fool me once!

Got a call from an unknown number I hadn’t asked to be contacted by, so I just let it ring out. Decided to look it up here afterwards. Blocked it straight away.

This wasn’t a real person, just some automated voice about a driveway something or other. It kept going on even when I tried to stop it. At first, it kept asking over and over “can you hear me?” I said “yeah” and now I’m kinda worried I might end up losing some money or summat!

There was a bit of silence before a man spoke up, introducing himself as John from the Driveway Centre. That’s when I decided to hang up.

I got a call about some driveway offer and promo, seemed like a normal person at first but the voice kept breaking up. When I tried to answer, it just kept going on and on about that driveway deal, sounded like one of those recordings. So, I just ended the call. Tried to call 01617682921 back, but it wouldn’t connect. The number did show up on 1471 though, so I know it’s legit-ish.

They rang up claiming they were working on a brochure for resin driveways, trying to get info about the age of our driveway. Seemed like they wanted to show off ours in their fancy pamphlet - felt like they were playing on people’s pride.

I just let the phone ring through to my voicemail, didn’t bother answering. They didn’t even bother leaving a message. I’ve signed up to the telephone preference service, so I shouldn’t be getting calls like this anyway!

Got another one trying to scam me today. When he asked "can you hear me?", I decided to respond with "Yeah, I can hear you. Who are you?" He got really irritated and then just hung up straight away. Watch out folks, it's pretty risky - feels like they’re recording the call and probably on speakerphone too. Stay safe!

Got a call from what seemed like scammers, they didn't bother leaving a message though.

The caller kept having these weird long silences and seemed totally lost when I replied. Honestly, it felt like some super realistic robot trying to pitch a driveway deal or something, which made no sense since this is an office building with no driveway at all. Just going to block them!

They kept asking if I could hear them, clearly expecting me to say yes. Bit odd, really.

Got a call from some kind of robot voice saying something about driveways. Thing is, we're on a business park and have no driveway at all! Sounded totally fishy and like one of those spam calls.

Got a call from what sounded like a scam about driveway stuff. At first it felt automated, just like people mentioned. I said yes to the initial question, then it waited ages before asking anything else. When I told them I wasn’t bothered, there was silence for a bit and then it just muttered "so..." before I ended the call. Pretty suspicious if you ask me.

Got a call but as soon as I picked up, there was just silence on the other end!
