3 yearsGot a call today and all I heard was quiet, then the phone just cut off. Lately, I’ve been getting those dodgy calls about medical alert pendants from numbers that look similar but end differently, so I’m guessing they’re faking the number. I reckon scammers might be listening to see if a bloke or a lass picks up during the day, and if it’s a bloke, they just hang up straight away!3 yearsHavent got a clue who this caller is, bit annoying really, but luckily BT's call blocker caught it for me.BT3 yearsI get calls on my landline about two or three times daily, but when I pick up, there's nobody on the line. It's quite frustrating.3 yearsI answered the phone but no one spoke right away, just some background chatter. Then a foreign-sounding person asked for a Miss *. He claimed to be from some kind of medical place. I told him there’s no Miss * living here.Miss3 yearsGot a call earlier today, they said they were from the NHS and already knew my name. They were trying to sell me some sort of emergency alarm thing for 30 quid a month. Seemed a bit off to me.NHS3 yearsI answered the phone and all I could hear was silence, then suddenly a woman said hi before the call just got cut off.3 yearsThey rang me at about 8:50 but after a while just hung up.3 yearsGot a call from some scammer, they didn’t tell me anything at all.3 yearsThis morning at 10.23, my elderly mum received a phone call. It was like the one described above, with someone trying to persuade her to buy a panic button subscription for roughly £29 a month. She ended up listening to their spiel for nearly half an hour before she finally ended the call. Luckily, they haven’t phoned again since.3 yearsNumber was blocked before.3 yearsSince I didn’t recognise the number, I just let the call ring out.3 yearsI got a missed call from a number that was totally quiet when I answered - I’m on the TPS list so it’s probs a spammer or some telemarketer. Funny thing is, a really similar number ending in 29 rang me just yesterday too, and that one was flagged as spam. No messages left either.3 yearsThey rang me but didn’t bother to leave a voicemail or anything.3 yearsThey rang me but didn’t bother leaving a message.3 yearsToday I got a call from this number, some bloke claiming to be from the NHS trying to tell me I qualified for a panic button. Totally feels like a scam to me. Honestly, these sorts of calls should be shut down asap.NHS3 yearsI picked up and they hung up straight away. Definitely a dodgy call.3 yearsI just got a call, asked “Is this Mr xxx?” but when I asked who was calling, they hung up immediately.3 yearsJust had a call from someone trying to sell medical gadgets, sounded dodgy to me. Don’t think I’ll be buying anything from them!3 yearsGot a call around half past eight in the morning, but they didn’t say anything or leave a message. Seems like it was probably some telemarketer trying to sell me stuff.3 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be from a health service company, telling me I’d be sent an emergency alert pendant to wear, supposedly paid for by the NHS or Government. They said it would cost me £29 a month and the total item value was £350. They told me I’d get it within 5 days and that it would be mine permanently. When I told them I wanted to mull it over, the person on the other end just said I could take my time forever and then abruptly hung up! Looks like they were after my bank info but didn’t manage to get it.NHSGovernment3 yearsI've been getting calls from a number starting with 01668 like four or five times over the last couple of days. I’m pretty sure it’s just some automated dialler doing the rounds.3 yearsThis morning at half past eight I got a call from 01668212638. When I answered, there was a bit of silence before the person on the other end said "Mr (my surname)"? I asked him who it was, but he just hung up straight away.3 yearsSomebody rang saying they was from a medical service or summat, but they wouldn’t explain what the call was about. Definitely sounded like a call centre. I’m pretty sure it was a scam.3 yearsThis morning just after 9 o’clock, I received a call from a man who kept pestering about an alarm button for a lady I look after with dementia. I told him we already have one, but he got rude, and fair enough, I wasn't exactly polite either. The bloke then called back twice more, still carrying on with his rude behaviour. Let’s just say, he got a piece of my mind each time.3 yearsGot a call today and they already knew my name. They asked if I was planning on getting an alarm and when I said I didn't need one, they just ended the call. Bit worrying, especially since it could trick someone who's more vulnerable.Submit Your Own Report (01668 212638)
