Just another spam call, so I’ve blocked the number straight away.

There was some sort of noise in the background that seemed like it was coming from a home, but I couldn't hear anyone speaking. After a short while, I just ended the call.

Got a call from some medical scam, claiming they got my number from the NHS. They’re apparently calling everyone over 40, trying to set up home eye tests for people who can’t easily visit an optician. Thing is, the person they wanted to speak to has actually been dead for like ten years! So weird.

Was expecting a call from the NHS, so when my phone rang, I picked up carefully. It kinda sounded like it might be the NHS, but then they asked for someone else’s name. They tried to get info about who they were meant to be speaking to, probably to update their records, but I didn’t give out any of my details. Just told them they had the wrong number. I’ve gone ahead and blocked that number now.

Got a call claiming a free eye checkup right after I'd booked a hospital appointment on the phone! Total scam, so I just blocked the number immediately.

When the caller claimed to be from the NHS, I let the woman finish explaining why she was ringing my home phone. I'm 74 years old and thankfully I’m quite cautious about phones offering "free eye tests" or anything free I haven't checked out first. I told her I wasn't convinced about the call and that I'd get in touch with the NHS myself. She said thank you and ended the call. Honestly, I’m glad I’m familiar with scams because this one definitely was.

Got a call from this number earlier today, some woman said her name was Kelly and asked if I wanted a free eye test. I told her I already get mine done by my optician, don’t know who she was or recognise the number. She just said alright and hung up. Turns out this number has been calling people for like two years now, still going on. Someone in authority really ought to sort it out, but when that’ll happen, who knows?

Thankfully, my phone picked up on this and blocked the call. Since the number started with 0161, which is a Manchester code, I might’ve rung it back by mistake if it had been on my landline.

Got a call where they asked straight up for me by name, then wanted to know if my partner was interested in a free eye check at our place. I told them we both already use Specsavers. They claimed Specsavers don’t offer free home visits and then I just ended the call and blocked the number. Later, I phoned Specsavers myself and they confirmed they actually do home visits free of charge if you can't make it to the store.

Seriously, why do Ofcom just sit there and do nothing about all these annoying cold calls? They’re so persistent and it’s such a pain. When will they actually get off their backsides and put a stop to these callers? Just ignore, that’s all you can do.

I got a call from someone saying they were with the NHS, but when I checked the number, it was linked to a private firm. They promised a free service aimed at helping vulnerable folks, but it seems like later on you might be pushed to buy glasses that aren’t really necessary.
