I just let it ring and didn’t bother with a voicemail. Blocked the number now. Cheers everyone!

Some bloke called Daniel Smith rang me, but I reckon he just made the name up. He was pushing some insurance comparison, which I wasn’t having. Told him to find something more worthwhile to do and then hung up. Honestly, he was way too pushy for no good reason.

Got a call from someone trying to sell me life insurance, sounded totally dodgy to me. Definitely a scammer in disguise.

Someone called saying they were from Compare the Market, trying to verify my insurance info. At first, it sounded legit because they knew my name and that I had a policy with them. But after a while, the caller’s tone felt off. The guy, who spoke with an Indian accent, got pretty pushy and rude when I told him I needed to hang up. He even said he’d call me back later to finish the “interview.” I’ve blocked the number now, just to be safe.

I received a rather brusque call from a telemarketer who had the audacity to mispronounce my name. It was quite off-putting, so I decided to end the conversation and hang up.

Got a call from these lot, but they wouldn’t tell me what it was about. Definitely felt like some kind of scam.

Got a call from some dodgy call centre saying I had life insurance with them. They kept pushing that if I didn’t already have a policy, I really should get one. Seemed like a total scam to me.

Yet another bothersome caller! Honestly, I've reached my wits' end with these lot!

I received a rather intrusive call concerning life insurance, and there was definitely a call centre vibe to it. The person on the line was looking for someone named "Mrs Johnson," which is certainly not my name!

Dodgy scam, blocked straight away.

Heard a lot of background chatter like a call centre. The caller wanted to speak with Mrs Johnson. I told them they’d got the wrong number. Then they asked who I was talking. I just said that if they’re looking for Mrs Johnson, they don’t need to know who I am and that they’ve got the wrong line. I quickly ended the call and blocked the number afterwards.

Someone rang me saying they were with the council and talked about clearing a path or something. Problem is, I never gave my phone number to the council before, so it all feels a bit fishy to me.

Got a call about some life insurance I supposedly have. I told them I don’t, then they kept pushing, asking why not. I just ended the call. Total spam.
