4 yearsBloody nuisance of life insurance salespeople!5 yearsReceived a call from +441709248738 but ignored it since it wasn’t saved in my contacts.

They said they were ringing from the benefits department of some “UK life insurance” scheme or something. Funny thing is, the very day before, I got the same sort of call but from a different number, 01313670137, which is an Edinburgh code. Sounded like the same kind of cold caller no doubt.RotherhamUKEdinburgh5 yearsI ended the call as soon as I picked up.5 yearsI think this number is connected to Telnyx UK Limited.

The twist is, I don’t even own a boiler - just electric heaters in my rented flat! When I mentioned they should reach out to my landlord, they simply replied, “Alright, I’ll ring them now.
