I’ve just blocked them now.David2 yearsPhone rang yesterday but no voicemail left, definitely a scam so I blocked it.2 yearsThe TPS is meant to stop calls like this but they keep ringing anyway, it's completely against the law!2 yearsGot a call from someone named David about AI and discounts on Windows from like 10 years ago or something. Total nonsense and just a load of rubbish about old offers that don’t even apply anymore. Don’t waste your time with that.David2 yearsGot a call from a guy named David claiming to be from Windows and Doors. He started off by asking how I was, but quickly jumped straight into his sales pitch. I cut him off and told him we’re registered with the TPS.

I cut him off quick and said, "Mate, this isn’t my place, you need to speak to the landlord or whoever owns it." Next thing I know, he just hangs up on me! Another dodgy scam, for sure.2 yearssounds like they’re just checking if the number is active... when you answer they mark it as live and then pass it on to scammers who use it. they probably make money from selling your number like this.2 yearsDidn't pick up 'cos I didn't recognise the number, the phone rang but there was no voicemail, so I just blocked it now.2 yearsThe phone buzzed, I answered pretty quick, like after two rings and then wham - they just cut off straight away.

Bit strange!2 yearsI got a call from someone who said his name was David and claimed to be from some windows and doors company. He asked if I was alright, but I ended the call right away because when I picked up, there was a period of silence and I could swear I heard some kind of recording beginning. I reckon I read somewhere that they try to get you to say 'yes' so they can record it and use it against you.David2 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were with a company that does loft insulation to help save energy. Seemed a bit dodgy to me.2 yearsJust had a missed call on my home phone from a number I didn’t know. After checking the comments, seems like it’s a dodgy call pretending to be from BT.
