They only gave me a single ring! Was clearly hoping I’d return the call.

Hung up straight away, pretty sure it was one of those dodgy scams.

Got a call from 01618840560, answered it but couldnt hear anything on the other end. Seems like one of those utility scams to me. These calls are such a nightmare, especially for people who struggle to move about easily. How long does it usually take for the TPS to step in and sort this out when the rules are clearly being broken? This number is definitely a scammer posing as a utility company.

Is there any way to put an end to these dodgy pests calling non stop? Honestly, it's driving me mad! Feels like I'm being harassed every time I have to stop what I'm doing just to pick up for some scammer or another.

I got a call from this landline but they didn’t leave any voicemail or anything. Seems like a typical scam or spam, especially after reading what others have said. Best to steer clear.

I was on the phone with some insulation con artist for what felt like ages, and she ended up telling me I was wasting her time haha.

Got a call on my home phone from a Manchester area code - which to me is usually a red flag for dodgy callers. Didn’t pick up, of course. When it went to answerphone, they stayed silent then just hung up. Seriously, I wonder what Greater Manchester Police are up to, they should be cracking down on these fraudsters instead of twiddling their thumbs.

Got a call on my landline from some bloke trying to sound all confident with an Indian accent, definitely one of those scam call centre types. Just told him to bugger off and hung up straight away.

I got a call and when I answered, nobody said a word, just some weird noises in the background.

I got a call earlier and just let them go on and on until they ended it themselves. This isn’t the first time they’ve called me this week. Nowadays, the moment I hear the call centre noise in the background, I just stay quiet and don’t bother replying.

Sounds like a right scam to me. The phone stopped ringing just before I managed to pick up. Next time, I’m definitely answering, gonna waste their time as much as I can.

Got two calls just minutes apart, one came from this number and the other was from a different one. Both people claimed to be with Microsoft, but clearly it’s a scam. Total waste of time!

I’m so annoyed with them ringing all the time... just about half an hour ago they called me again but I ignored it. They really need to be put an end to.

I got a call on my phone with Call Guardian installed, but they didn’t leave any voicemail or even say anything when I answered. After having a look at some earlier comments, it seems like this number is connected to a scam.

Got a call from a voice bot, something about cavity wall insulation and offering a free boiler swap if yours is older than 15 years. Just blocked the number straight away.

I was looking into getting help with a new boiler and found out there’s a boiler replacement grant, plus there’s something for loft insulation too. Might be worth checking both out if you’re thinking of doing similar upgrades.

They didn’t leave a voicemail, which made me think it was a scam straight away - then reading the comments here just proved it. My number’s on the TPS list too.

Received a dodgy call about energy services, trying to fish for my personal details. Definitely a number to steer clear of-very risky!

Didn't pick up since the number was unfamiliar, then had a look on 'who called me' to see who it was.

I saw the number calling but didn’t pick up, I’m actually on the TPS list.

Watch out for this scammer pretending to be from an energy company, trying to trick you into giving away your personal info like your name and address. Seriously risky, don’t fall for it!

I didn’t pick up, and seeing what people have shared here, I’m actually relieved I didn’t! No voicemail either.

Got a call where no one said a word, just silence. Strange and a bit annoying.

Got a call from a woman with a really heavy South Asian accent, she was trying to sell me some free A-rated boiler thing, said it was covered by the government or something. Kept asking how old my boiler was, I said about seven years, then she kept pressing me for the age again. I asked her where she was ringing from and why the number started with 0161. After that, she said my boiler wasn’t old enough for the deal and suddenly cut the call. No robot sound, but 100% a scam for sure.
