Received a call from someone purporting to be with a housing and welfare organisation. The voice was that of a woman, of Asian descent, but her English left much to be desired. She inquired whether I was a tenant who had ongoing repairs and if I was dealing with any issues like disrepair or pest problems?! Quite evidently, it was just a scam.

I received a call from someone who said they were representing the council. The caller was an Asian gentleman with a rather limited command of English. The connection felt very much like a typical call centre operation. I decided it was best to end the conversation.

Total scam! I had an unexpected call from a chap with a strong Indian accent claiming to be from a housing and repairs service. It sounded dodgy, so I’ve just blocked the number.

I chose not to pick up the call, so I did a quick search for the number and found some feedback. I’ve now added it to my block list.

Allegedly representing a green energy company.

I received a call from someone with a strong Asian accent introducing himself as 'Alec' from the Green Energy Grant programme. He inquired about the type of gas boiler we have, to which my husband replied that we only use electric. Then he went on to probe about the number of storage heaters in our home and whether we own the property. Quite an intriguing conversation, to say the least!

Terrible use of the English language!

Received a call during afternoon tea and saw it was from a Manchester number, so I decided to let it ring. I tend to avoid these 0161 numbers since, around here, they’re often from Manchester. Once you've had your fair share of these calls, it’s easy to ignore them!

Got a call yesterday from someone saying they were from my phone network, trying to pitch some 'special offer'. Something felt off so I just told them no thanks. After checking here, I’m really happy I didn’t get involved.

I got a call that sounded like it was from some EE department, the line even had that connection beep. Told them I’m not with EE though, but the person just kept talking so quick I couldn’t make out a word and just ended up hanging up.

I was waiting for a call from Manchester so I picked up, but all I heard was a recorded voice saying "goodbye". Pretty sure it’s just some sort of scam.
