2 yearsGot a call asking if I bought something from Amazon costing £199 and about a money transfer worth a few grand. They said press 1 to approve or 2 to speak with someone from the bank. I didn’t say anything and the line just went dead after a bit.Amazon8 yearsPicked up the phone, but the other side just stayed quiet - so frustrating!8 yearsGot a call first thing this morning, but nobody was there when I answered. Another annoying nuisance call, as usual.8 yearsI chose not to pick up because a number pretty much like that had rung me before. They never bothered to leave me a voicemail either. I usually don’t take calls from numbers that I don’t know.8 yearsPhone rang, I picked up but there was no reply. Feels like some big spamming system that rings loads of numbers at once then drops the call if they don’t have enough people to talk to us.8 yearsA lady rang claiming to be from "Benefits UK" and told me if I just answered a few questions, she wouldn’t bother me anymore. Sounds like a total scam to me.Benefits UK8 yearsThis number has called me a few times, always looking for a "Mr Robinson." When I told them there’s no one by that name here, they just hung up straight away!Robinson8 yearsBenefits Uk ringing me once more!!! I've blacklisted this one. They just keep switching up their phone numbers.BenefitsUK8 yearsGot a call from some quiet telemarketer who was too nervous to speak up properly. Seems like they’d rather keep lying and selling crap than just be upfront. Proper sad, just out here wasting time and running scams. Someone needs to sort their life out, honestly.8 yearsI usually tell them I’ll call the person over and then just leave the phone hanging up. They end up hanging up pretty quick! Plus, it’s their call cost to pay!8 yearsGot a call from someone with an accent asking me to take part in a survey for “Benefits UK”. I said I couldn’t talk right now and they said they’d call me again in 30 minutes. I told them I’d still be tied up then, and they promised to ring back in an hour instead. I ended up blocking the number.Benefits UK8 yearsI got a call from a guy with an Indian accent, who asked me to verify my name and address. Then he said he was doing some research for Benefits UK, working with about 35 companies, and wanted my help. I told him I might consider it, depends on the questions. He quickly jumped in asking which age group I belonged to - 50s, 60s, or 70s? That’s when I told him cold callers have serious problems with data privacy and I wasn’t interested in carrying on. He just hung up. I then checked the number using 1471; it was 01685896325, a local Merthyr Tydfil number from South Wales.Benefits UKMerthyr TydfilSouth Wales8 yearsWatch out! This is totally a scam, don’t hand over any details to them. Once you do, you’ll end up on some dodgy list and be bombarded with even more annoying calls you don’t want!8 yearsI answered the phone and they just hung up straight away, didn’t say a word. My number’s on the TPS list, so that’s definitely against the cold call rules.8 yearsOver the past couple of days, I got three silent calls, then suddenly a foreign voice popped up and knew my name and address, saying it was from Benefits UK. When I asked them about it, they just said it was the company’s name and they had some questions for me. I ended the call right there.BenefitsUKBenefits UK8 yearsI got a voicemail from a number I didn’t recognise, and the voice sounded like they had an accent.8 yearsI got a call from someone speaking really fast and with a kinda foreign accent. When I told them to slow down and say it again, the call just went dead but didn’t actually disconnect. Tried asking once more but no answer. Pretty sure it was some sort of telemarketer.8 yearsI answered but no one was there, and I don’t recognise the number at all.8 yearsGot a call from this number, but they just cut off straight away.8 yearsLeft a message on our voicemail, but it was all just jumbled up and not in English.8 yearsAs soon as I asked who was calling, they just ended the call. Pretty obvious they weren't keen on having a proper chat.8 yearsNot sure who that was, as they didn’t leave any message. If it was something important, you'd think they’d actually say something, right? Guess it wasn’t worth the effort to leave a voicemail.8 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were Benefits UK, but couldnt find any info on that company anywhere. When I asked them to give me their full business name and address so I could report them for GDPR violations, they just hung up on me. Bit suspicious if you ask me.Benefits UK8 yearsSomeone called my elderly mum again, so I asked who they were and what on earth they wanted before just hanging up.8 yearsAnswered the call, could hear some noise like shuffling in the background, then they just ended it.8 yearsOn the 25th October 2018 at around 6:19pm, the call came through but I wasn’t quick enough to get to where I could take it properly. I reckon it was a scam tryin’ to grab some info. When I answered, there was nothing - just silence - and then it went dead after a few moments.8 yearsThe person spoke really bad English. When I asked if that number was mine, they just said no and then cut me off.Submit Your Own Report (01685 896325)
