I've been getting a barrage of random calls from various numbers lately, and it's really starting to get on my nerves.

Claimed to represent the Citizens Advice Bureau, phoning me up with an offer to assist with my unpaid bills. Complete con, believe me.

Here’s a handy tip: don’t hang up straight away. They usually ring again. Keep them busy by rambling about nonsense - like asking what the weather’s like where they’re calling from in England. Do this every time you get those annoying calls. Don’t bother with blowing a whistle, it’s useless.

I got two calls from an Indian woman and then an Indian man, all in like 10 minutes. They said I was owed a refund from my bank and had my full name and address. Then they asked for my date of birth to supposedly send a refund cheque. I told them it was a scam and I'd report it to the police, then they just cut me off.

This number 01724271768 keeps calling me claiming to be from some government department about a refund I'm supposedly owed by the bank. As soon as they start asking for my personal details, I just hang up. Sounds like a scam to me!

Like some others have said, it was a government office calling me. When I refused to answer their questions, the guy ended up calling me a bloody bastard.

Got a call from someone with a strong Indian accent, claiming to be John at Claims Advisory Group. They sounded pretty confident, even mentioned my address, then asked for my birthday and which bank I use (they stressed they weren’t after my account details). I just gave them a fake birthday and a random bank name. Then he told me my cheque number is 101959 and said his manager would ring me later to explain how much money I’m owed from bank interest and overcharges. Let’s see what happens next!

This number, 01724 271768, has been ringing me loads but whenever I answer, there’s just silence. When I called back once, it said the number wasn’t available. Bit strange, really.

Got a call from 01724 271768, sounded like one of those dodgy scams. The strange thing is, they already knew my name and postcode which freaked me out a bit. The voice on the other end was a really strong Indian accent too, made me suspicious straight away. Definitely be careful if you get a call from this number!

About five minutes back I got a call from someone saying the government is refunding past bank fees. Sure, like that’s gonna happen haha. I just blocked the number straight away.

Brilliant move having cold call firms show their number, though I do wish they had to use their actual one. This particular call was from some personal injury claims group, trying to convince you to fake an injury to scam insurance. Honestly, what we should do is pass these firms’ numbers on to our MPs. Bet we’d see some proper action taken then.
