They called me about insulation but got my number mixed up with someone else’s. I never confirmed anything, then just ended up blocking them.

Got a call from someone claiming to be with my car club about some missed finance from like 2007 to 2021. They had my full name, date of birth, and even my email, which freaked me out because I don’t even drive! How do they know all this stuff? Proper worrying!

Got a voicemail from an unknown number and it was clearly a scam. I've gone ahead and blocked the number now.

Looks like another dodgy insurance scam trying to con people. Stay alert and don’t fall for it!

Got a call from someone saying they were with ‘my car group’. Didn’t sound right, so I’ve blocked the number now.

This number showed up flagged as possible spam, so I didn’t answer. After reading what others said here, I’ll just block it and get rid of it.

Got yet another call claiming to be from a housing repairs team - just a scam, so I blocked it straight away.

So, I got a call from these people the other day, about some home repairs. What bugged me was that they actually knew my name, which only started happening ever since I signed up for council tax. Bit fishy, right? They rang me again that same afternoon, really pushy. In the end, I just blocked their number.

Definitely a scam, no doubt about it.

Got a call claiming they were from social housing about repairs I supposedly needed, but I’m not even in social housing. Totally a scam, watch out!

I keep getting calls from this number but I'm too nervous to pick up. What should I do?

This has got to be a con. They called me and knew my last name without me sharing it, which was a bit creepy. Claimed to be from some housing maintenance or something. Thing is, I don't even live in council housing. I just ended the call straight away and put the number on my blocked list.

Got a call insisting it was about repairs and upkeep for council and housing association properties. Honestly, it felt like a total waste of time to me. Pretty sure it was some sort of scam.

I’m getting nonstop calls from them but have no clue what company they’re representing.

Havent picked up the phone yet and still have no clue who it could be. After going through the other folks comments about this number, I’m thinking maybe next time I should just answer and see what’s what. The bit about South Africa caught my eye too, cos recently some calls from EDF’s call centre have got info about me and my place (not sayin there’s any link or privacy breach, but it could be). I’ll come back and update this forum if I learn anything.

I kept getting calls from this number all day long. Since I couldn’t figure out who it was, I just stopped picking up. Finally, I blocked it a little while ago.

Got a call about some repairs, but the person wouldn’t say who they were actually trying to reach. Asked me if I was renting from the council or a housing association - had a strong accent too. Ended up just hanging up!

Lodging a complaint about it would be a wise move.

Got a call from a woman named Stacey claiming to be checking in on Council Tenants about their housing. Thing is, I’ve never been a tenant, nor anyone in my family has, and to top it off, she was ringing from Manchester while I’m based in London. Seems pretty dodgy to me, not convinced it was a genuine call at all.

It's rather odd, really. The caller had a male voice and started off with, "Hello, how are you today? I'm calling on behalf of your landlord." When I expressed my confusion with a simple "Huh?", he promptly hung up. Quite bizarre, if you ask me!

Lately, I’ve been getting a bunch of calls like this and just haven’t bothered picking up. Didn’t really seem worth it, so I just let them ring out.

Got a call with a robotic voice saying it was about housing repairs, but I’m nowhere near Manchester! Definitely a scam, seems tied to those other dodgy calls going around. Not falling for it!

Got a call out of the blue, didn’t pick up. Definitely not following TPS rules.
