I picked up and the person just said "hello" a few times then ended the call. Didn’t know the number so I blocked it straight away. Turns out it was from Scunthorpe hospital but I’m based in Grimsby. Bit odd!

Got a call saying it was from Scunthorpe hospital, asking to confirm some personal info. The questions were a bit strange - stuff like my ethnicity, how long I've been in the area, and if I've lived abroad before. I decided to check with the hospital myself and they said they never call patients to update details; patients always contact them. Plus, I don’t even have any appointments booked there, so it felt quite fishy.

This number belongs to Scunthorpe General Hospital. It would be much better if they sent a message or letter mentioning which department's trying to reach you, so you know who to call back. Also, why do they only ring once? They should ring a few times, maybe three, before sending a text or letter.

The number 01724290000 is linked to N H Hospital for Northern Lincolnshire & Goole. They really should leave a voicemail, so people can call back instead of them just ringing over and over, which means the calls often go unanswered and wastes everyone’s time.

I’m pretty certain this number’s connected to Grimsby hospital, cos I got a call from it and didn’t pick up, then got another one from the usual Grimsby hospital line I deal with. I asked if she’d just phoned from that other number and she said yeah, it sometimes shows up as Scunthorpe.

This number belongs to Scunthorpe General Hospital. I've been in touch with community nurses, and they’ve rung me several times about different things from this number. Seems like all the hospital departments might be using it when they call out, from what I can tell.

The call lasted barely a second before I could even answer. I don’t get why Scunthorpe hospital would ring me, especially since it’s the hospital near me. I’ll see if they try calling again, but judging by the comments here, I’m a bit iffy about it.

This morning, I received a call from 01274290000. The caller claimed to be from Scunthorpe Hospital, but I've never been a patient there, so I'm quite convinced it’s a scam. It’s quite baffling, really!

Yesterday at 2 o'clock, I received a call from this number, and then again this morning at a quarter past nine. The ringing only lasts about 21 seconds, akin to the usual scam or nuisance calls. I'm inclined to think it might be linked to Covid, as I’m employed by the NHS and am well-acquainted with legitimate numbers, plus I'm not anticipating any calls. If it were something serious, they would surely leave a voicemail, wouldn’t they?

Actually, it's the hospital in Scunthorpe. Refrain from jumping to the conclusion that it's a scam just because you let the call ring out. Such assumptions don’t do anyone any favours.

Someone rang me through the hospital’s main line and got to me. She asked for my name and kept saying it was me who called her, saying she had my number. She said she was gonna report me to the police. When she wouldn’t confirm my number and kept threatening to report it, I just ended the call.

Got a call from someone saying they were from a hospital doing pre-assessment questions, asking for my full name and address. I didn’t give any information and asked who they were. The woman said she was with the hospital, but when I asked for more details she refused to give her name and just said she was from bookings. When I pushed for which hospital, she said Scunthorpe. I told her I had no connection to that hospital and asked how she got my private number, and she just said someone gave it to her and then hung up.

I had no clue who was calling since I didn’t pick up, my phone showed it was from abroad. Just a heads up, there’s no way Scunthorpe hospital would be ringing me, so I’m guessing this number is fake. Be careful and don’t assume it’s legit unless you’ve actually spoken to someone real from it.

Straight away wanted to talk to my partner without saying who they were. Classic! A quick Google search showed it was from Sc###horpe NHS. Felt a bit dodgy not saying their name, could’ve been a scam for all I knew. Also didn’t ask how best to reach my partner, just said they’d “ring back later”. Not a good first impression.
