4 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were with the NHS covid team. I ended the call quick, didn’t want to hear more.NHS4 yearsI got a call from some bloke speaking with what sounded like an Indian accent, saying, “Hello, this is the NHS. You’ve had your vaccination, haven’t you?” and he even used my last name! It’s baffling how they manage to get hold of our personal info and why it seems like no one can put an end to these scam calls.NHS4 yearsSaw that earlier mention about putting an end to those scam calls and it caught my eye. Gonna look into it further. Something needs to be done because blocking doesn’t help till after the call’s already been made. But it’s not gonna happen without loads of people making noise, can’t do it alone.4 yearsIt was obvious a total Covid scam. The caller had an Asian accent and said they were from the “NHS Covid Department,” but it just didn’t feel right.NHS Covid Team4 yearsThey rang up saying they were from the government about covid, but then they went off asking loads of personal stuff. Proper dodgy if you ask me.Covid4 yearsSomebody said they were from a government office about covid and started asking if I’d been vaccinated. When they got pushy I told them I’m not selling insurance and just ended the call straight away.COVID4 yearsSaid seems to be linked to a life insurance firm that has ties to Legal & General. They even knew my name!SaidLegal & General4 yearsWas really hard to get what he was saying because of his Indian accent.4 yearsI picked up the phone and just said hello, then the person hung up straight away.4 yearsHad a call where they were asking about side effects from vaccines and loads of other vaccine stuff.

I told him I don't have one and quickly ended the call.Aviva4 yearsI just let it ring out, looked like it was probably spam.4 yearsGot a call supposedly from the Covid Line, and they knew my name right off the bat. When I asked what it was about, the lady on the other end, who spoke with a really thick Asian accent, just dropped the call. It’s the third time they’ve rung me, and still can’t handle the most basic questions. Pretty frustrating stuff.4 yearsSomebody rang me pretending to be from the "COVID 19 Department." Seemed dodgy, so I just ended the call. Probably another scam, if you ask me.COVID - 19 Department4 yearsGot a call where they first asked me if I had any symptoms of Covid-19, then suddenly started grilling me about my insurance. Felt really dodgy, so I’m pretty sure it was a scam.

I told him I wasn’t comfortable with the number and ended the call right away.4 yearsSomebody rang me claiming to be from Citizens Advice, telling me about some debt forgiveness program.

I just ended up hanging up each time.Citizens Advice4 yearsThey keep ringing me non-stop, seriously thinking about blocking the number.4 yearsGot a call earlier today while I was having lunch.

I told him that if he was really NHS, he’d already have my vaccination details. Then he just ended the call. I’ve blocked the number since.NHS4 yearsThere was this caller with an Indian accent who spoke really quickly. I think they mentioned something about owing money, but I couldn't catch it all. I just replied in Welsh acting like I didn’t get their English. Funny enough, they couldn’t even say my name right!4 yearsGot a call from this number earlier, claiming to be from Citizens Advice. When I repeated it to make sure, the guy suddenly said it wasn’t actually Citizens Advice but some other company - I couldn’t catch the name clearly.

Anyone know if the police can do anything about this?4 yearsGot a phone call from a lady speaking with an Indian accent, claiming she was from the Covid Track and Trace team. She asked if I’d got my vaccine certificate in the post yet, which I hadn’t. She said she’d make sure it got sorted. When I asked why she was calling, I didn’t quite catch what she said. Then out of nowhere, she asked if I had life insurance to protect my family. I told her I didn’t think I had any, expecting her to try and pitch something, but instead she just said “Alright then, have a nice day” and hung up. Really strange. Tried calling the number back but no one answered and then the call dropped.Covid Track and Trace4 yearsGot three calls from this number today, didn’t answer any of them.

He claimed he was ringing from some NHS support line, asking about my vaccine details and insurance policy. When I told him I wasn’t interested in talking about my insurance, he got quite rude. I asked him to take my number off their list, and he just said in a very cheeky way that they’d keep calling me anyway. This is already the third number he's used - definitely blocking them all now.StevenNHS4 yearsPhone just hung up on me, so I tried dialing back and it turns out the number doesn’t even exist!Submit Your Own Report (0161 826 9050)
