Couldnt answer so let it go to voicemail, no message was left, pretty clear it was a cold call, so ive just blocked the number.

They rang me a couple of times but I ignored it, my phone showed it was probably a scam.

Some bloke called me about life insurance and said he could get me a better deal. He even knew my first name, which seemed a bit dodgy. Feels like a total scam to me.

Got a call out of the blue about life insurance earlier today. Totally not interested but they kept pushing. Annoying cold caller for sure.

They rang me twice in a single day, about a couple of hours apart. I didn't know the number, so I chose not to pick up.
5 years
Received a call about being possibly responsible for debts as a timeshare owner, apparently because the timeshare I used to be part of had supposedly folded. Even tho I gave up my ownership last year, the person on the phone said I might still be on the hook. Sounded pretty convincing and was a bit worrying at first. Then I looked this number up, saw the other reviews, and double-checked that my old timeshare company is actually still operating without issues.

I've been getting a call on my mobile from 0161 768 5224 nearly every day, and I've decided not to pick up. I'm pretty certain it's either a scam or some pushy timeshare seller. I think I’ll just go ahead and block the number for good measure.
5 years
As soon as I answered the phone, the line went dead. Perhaps I took my time getting to it. It did cross my mind that it might have been a crafty burglar, probing to see if my home was vacant during the festive season. Given that I'm registered with the Telephone Preference Service, your previous suggestion appears to hold some water. Cheers for providing this helpful service!

Not sure who it was so I didn’t pick up, no voicemail either. They’ve rung quite a few times though.

Got a call on my landline and then straight away on my mobile from the same unknown number, didn’t pick up on either. They keep calling quite often. Feels like one of those timeshare scams to me.

I didn’t pick up and they didn’t leave a voicemail, so I guess it wasn’t anything urgent.

I didn’t pick up since I didn’t know the number and thought it might be one of those timeshare legal firms. I’ve now put it on my blocked list.

Its those timeshare scams again, calling from numbers that are just a bit different so you never know which to block. Ive blocked this one too now.
5 years
Got calls from some timeshare payout firm. They kept spouting nonsense, I told them it didn’t concern me at all. But they ring me every day like clockwork, so I’m guessing it’s a scam. Ended up blocking the number.

Phone rang but went straight to voicemail, no message was left. I’ve put the number on my blocked list as I don’t want to get calls from them.

Some woman rang up saying she was a 'legal adviser' from some firm called CWT or something, chasing Timeshare claims. She never said who she was at first, had to ask where she was calling from and all that. Then went onto the usual spiel about a timeshare company. Proper time wasters, worse than the timeshare lot themselves I'd say. Stay clear!
CWT

Beware of those timeshare legal rip-offs :(

These folks claiming to be timeshare compensation experts are just scam artists. Dont bother answering or wasting your time with them.

Some woman claiming to be from Smart Energy called, asking to talk to the account holder (they actually knew his name), but that’s not me. I told them to email the account holder and we’ll wait and see what happens! Bit strange if it was a scam that they didn’t just try to con whoever picked up! Either way, I blocked the number!
