They rang me earlier pretendin to be from Sky, saying there was a problem with my Sky Mobile sim and they needed to send me a replacement. They asked me to hold on the phone while they looked up my info… seemed a bit fishy to me.

I was just chatting with someone who was really worried about care home costs and how it's causing folks to have to sell their houses. It’s mad how the fees are getting so high that people might end up without a place to live. Makes you think about how unfair it is that paying for care could mean losing your home.

I think this might be a landline from around London - maybe places like Borehamwood, Ewell, Buckhurst Hill, or even Chessington. I couldn’t find any reviews or warnings about this number online, so that’s a bit reassuring. Has anyone else dealt with calls from this number before?
