I received a call from a chap at The Driveway Centre yesterday. It wasn’t the first time he’s tried to reach me, mind you. He had another go today, this time from a number based in Bradford. Quite irritating, to be honest.

Spoke to a chap named John from Driveways, ringing from 01622 292481. I mentioned that I reside in a flat on the second floor, so there's no driveway for me to utilise.

In the middle of my afternoon, I had a chap inquire whether I had a driveway at my residence. When I confirmed that I did, he promptly terminated the call. Just another pointless conversation with yet another time-wasting nuisance!

fraudster

Telesales: The chap sounded quite pleasant, to be honest, but his introduction had me chuckling instantly! Can you imagine selling driveways? I mean, how odd is it to cold call folks and start with, "I see you have a driveway at your residence"? What a bonkers job!

Received a couple of calls from a chap regarding driveways—I'm assuming he had the wrong number! I let him know it wasn't the right place for that sort of inquiry. Seems like it was some sort of marketing attempt, perhaps linked to a company called Philisay. Quite the nuisance, I must say!

Claimed to be representing Driveway Centre, yet I don’t even possess a driveway! This call shouldn’t have happened at all, especially considering my number is registered with the Telephone Preference Service. Clearly, they’re flouting the rules.

Received a call from a chap named John representing the Driveway Centre. It was a sales pitch, but he ended the conversation abruptly.

I received a cold call from 01622292481, with the caller claiming to represent a company called Driveways. He was rather insistent on confirming whether I had a driveway at my residence. When I pressed him on how he obtained my number, especially since I’m registered with the Telephone Preference Service, he seemed completely unaware of it. Quite the cheeky approach, if you ask me!

Had a series of pesky cold calls from someone claiming to be John at the driveways centre. Quite tiresome, really.

Received a call with no one on the line. Quite odd, really!

This is the second time I've received a call from the same chap named John. It's blatantly an attempt to fish for information. I even started chatting with him as if we were mates and mentioned that he’d called me last week; he then promptly hung up. Quite cheeky, if you ask me!

Beware of the driveway con artists!

I've been inundated with calls over the past three days – is this some sort of driveway con?

'Tarmac and Beyond'

Fraudulent activity!

I received a cold call from 01622292481 despite being registered with the Telephone Preference Service. Quite frustrating, if I may say!

I decided against picking up once I did a quick search for the number.

Dodgy driveway con job.

I received multiple calls from a number I didn’t recognise. Eventually, I decided to pick up. It turned out to be John from a driveway company. I wasn't interested, so I promptly ended the call. I checked this site and then blocked the number.

Inquired whether I still possess a driveway at my residence. Ended the call abruptly.

Driveways, eh? I'm pondering whether a resin surface is the way to go. What do you reckon?

I seem to be getting harassed on a weekly basis by someone named "John," who rings me from various numbers, inquiring about our driveway. It's an absolute nuisance, to say the least!

This afternoon at around ten to five, I received a phone call on our home line from a chap named John, claiming he was with the Driveway Centre. He rather courteously inquired whether I still possessed a driveway. It struck me as though he was reaching out about some sort of pre-existing matter rather than conducting a survey. Unfortunately, just after I responded, which he seemingly found unsatisfactory, he abruptly ended the call.

I received a call from someone introducing himself as John from The Driveway Centre. He was quite courteous and wished me well for the day, even saying farewell when I requested that he refrain from contacting me again. I suspect it’s more likely a scam than just your typical sales call.

Yet another daft message from this 'John' character. “Do I still have a driveway?” Really? Why on earth wouldn’t I? Honestly, what a numpty!

I let the voicemail pick up the call, but the moment it connected, the caller decided to hang up.

Had a few ring-ins from this number, the most recent occurring at half past seven tonight. It's the same individual I've already requested not to bother me. I expressed my disinterest in a driveway the first time he dialled, and my stance has definitely not shifted!

I've had this number ring me four times today, but oddly enough, they haven't bothered to leave a message each time. Quite curious, really!

I received a silent missed call earlier while I was indoors, and the caller didn’t bother to identify themselves or leave any sort of message. After doing some research on this site, I decided to block the number.

I opted not to pick up the call from 01622292481, as I’m not familiar with anyone using that area code.

I received a voicemail from some chap regarding block paving. Strangely enough, I haven’t reached out to any firms, so it must be a random call.

Center of the driveway. Hang up the phone, please.

It's those pesky scammers once more, the usual lot! What a bunch of charlatans. Do me a favour and take a hike, you bunch of fools. I've reported your nonsense and blocked you without a second thought!

I've had John ringing me yet again—this makes it four separate calls, all from various numbers! I finally asked him how many times I needed to reiterate that I had zero interest in getting a new driveway. At this point, it feels like harassment. He made some half-hearted apology before hanging up.

Here we go again, another pesky number from the driveway centre, likely manned by dear old John and his trusty autodialler. It's getting a bit tiresome, isn't it?

I had a rather intriguing phone call earlier. A nice chap named John introduced himself and mentioned a company with "driveway" in its title. He then proceeded to ask, “I believe you have a driveway, am I right?”. Just as I was about to kindly explain that this was an unsolicited call, he abruptly hung up on me. Quite odd, really!

Debris scattered on the driveway

They didn’t pick up, which I’m rather grateful for!

I received yet another bothersome phone call that was utterly irritating.

I received a call from a chap named John who went on about some promotional offer for brand new driveways. He was intent on getting details about our current one, clearly trying to reel us in for a sale on a new installation. I wasn't having any of it and dismissed him quite promptly.

UNIDENTIFIED NUMBER - DECIDED AGAINST PICKING UP.

Rang a couple of times but didn’t bother to drop a voicemail.

I answered a call, and a chap was on the line introducing himself as John from the Driveway Centre. He mentioned something about me having a driveway at my property. I genuinely thought it was one of those automated voices that reply once you chime in, so I chuckled and put it on loudspeaker for the family to enjoy the show. When he repeated his line, I retorted, "Well, to my knowledge, nobody’s spirited away my driveway, so I assume it’s still there!" He had a chuckle in return and simply said, "Cheers, thanks!" before hanging up. Quite the amusing little exchange! 😬

It appears that a company by the name of Driveway is reaching out, offering services related to the repair of residential driveways.

The caller disconnected just as my answering machine kicked in. I've decided to stop answering calls from numbers I don’t recognise, as they tend to be scams more often than not.

I didn't pick up since there was no identification for the caller and they didn’t leave a message, which usually suggests it’s some sort of sales pitch.

This chap rang claiming to be John from The Driveway Centre, asking if I had a driveway. Funny thing is, I’ve never actually owned one!

I always allow calls from unfamiliar numbers to ring through to voicemail. Typically, they’re just sales pitches or similar nuisances. This time, however, they didn’t bother leaving a message.

Received a call from this number, but they didn’t bother to leave a message. I tend to avoid picking up calls from unknown sources.

I wasn’t familiar with the number, so I decided to let it slide. They hung up without bothering to leave me a voicemail.

Gave us a bell but didn’t bother to leave a voicemail. We tend to ignore calls from numbers we don’t recognise.

Received a call but no message was left. I must admit, I hardly ever pick up calls from numbers I don’t recognise.

I chose not to answer the call, and there was no voicemail left behind. It’s likely just a nuisance call.
