01709248706 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01709248706 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance scam caller impersonating housing association or repair services. The automated or heavily scripted calls reference alleged housing issues or repairs the recipient supposedly reported. Many recipients find the calls suspicious due to silence, hang-ups when challenged, unclear accents, or lack of company verification. Multiple reports indicate the caller seeks to gather personal information, likely for fraudulent purposes. The number appears frequently across various UK regions, often unrelated to recipients’ actual housing status. Most advise ignoring, blocking, and never sharing personal details. The calls have been compared to typical identity theft tactics, with a strong warning that this is a data-harvesting scam targeting vulnerable individuals.

Received a call not long ago from a number I didn’t recognise. It flagged up as potentially fraudulent, so I decided to give it a miss and looked it up instead. Turns out it’s a scam! I've gone ahead and blocked the number, best to be safe!

Concerning the housing repairs I mentioned... I informed the caller that I hadn't lodged any report, and then he just cut the line. It really feels like a dodgy scheme. If it was an unsolicited call, I'm on the Telephone Preference Service list - regardless, they’ve stepped over the legal boundary.

I got a call from some bloke who said it was about my "housing problem". I told him I hadn’t got any issues, but he went on about mould, damp and all sorts. I insisted again that everything was fine and asked how he even got my number. After that, he just ended the call.

A chap rang me up claiming to discuss some repairs for my house that I apparently inquired about. Naturally, I asked him which Association I rent through, and lo and behold, he just cut off the call mid-sentence (not that I was taken aback). I shot him a text telling him to find himself a proper job and let loose with a few choice words for good measure. How cheeky! 🤔😉

Got a call from 01709248706 but it got disconnected straight away. Looked up the number and it seems to be related to some kind of accident.

I received a rather perplexing call from a housing repair team, but the moment I inquired about the identity of the organisation they were representing, they abruptly disconnected. It's noteworthy that the number they called from belongs to Rotherham, a region where numerous call centres operate, such as those for Vodafone and Southern Water. Hence, I initially presumed it might be them reaching out, as they often utilise Rotherham digits for communication. I can only speculate on what sort of services or dubious offers might have ensued had the conversation progressed. Quite strange, indeed!

This seems to be a dodgy house repairs scam. I received an unexpected call on my unlisted work mobile from someone asking if I was experiencing any issues at home. However, I struggled to catch most of what they were saying since their English was thick with a strong accent. It definitely felt like a scam of sorts - very suspicious indeed!

What a cheek! I got caught up in a housing repair con. It was bizarre - they’d ask a question, give me just enough time to reply, then fire off another one. The moment I told them where to shove it, they hung up without a second thought, which honestly made me chuckle. Such nerve, honestly!

I received a call from an automated voice concerning home repairs, and I quickly realised it was pre-recorded. I kept quiet, and the machine even prompted me to confirm if I was still on the line. Curious, I inquired about the issues I’d previously reported. The bot rattled off a list that included dampness, cracks, and mould. So I asked when I raised these concerns, and just like that, the call cut off.
