I’ve gotten three calls from 01885550015 so far. Two times they claimed they were assisting with blocking annoying calls. Then today, the same number rang asking for my husband, saying it was about drains and water. When I asked for more info, they told me my husband had apparently registered with them and the cost had gone up. Honestly, this number seems pretty dodgy and I wouldn’t trust it.

Got a call from someone talking about a new way to block silent calls. They then asked for my debit card info, which sounded dodgy, so I just ended the call. After that, I went ahead and used BT’s call blocking instead.

Heads up, this number is definitely dodgy. Don’t pick up or chat with them, total scam!

Like the others have said, this guy was pretty rude and just wouldn't accept that I wasn’t interested. I even hung up on him, but then he called right back straight away. Didn’t pick up the phone the second time. Felt a bit sketchy and annoying!

Someone rang me yesterday asking for my husband and was quite rude about it. Then they phoned again today claiming he'd registered for a Call Blocking Service. I told them I was sure he hadn’t and they got quite nasty after that.

Got a call from them once more today, saying I needed to pay the second instalment for some call blocking service. Honestly, the only number I wanna block is theirs!

Some bloke rang up claiming he could cut the cost of our call minder because he’d picked up on loads of international scam calls coming through. He went on about a new deal costing just £4 a month, cheaper than what we supposedly pay now, though he never said how much that actually was. I told him we don’t use such a service and ended the call pretty sharpish, seemed like a scam to me.

Got a dude calling, asking for someone by name but wouldn’t mention what firm he was with. Proper annoying, kept pestering me. Told him to jog on and ended the call. Tried calling back, only rings twice then just drops. What’s that about?

Some bloke called saying he was there to prevent nuisance calls. He asked me for my password and who handled the money matters. Seemed a bit dodgy to me.

Just got another call from some bloke called Kieren at Call Protection. Told him to stop ringing me but he keeps at it. Feels like a complete con to me.

This morning I got a call from 0185550015, the bloke said he was with some cold calling protection firm. I told him we have no dealings with them and ain't giving them any cash. Then he said he’d check with his accounts manager to confirm. Funny thing is, he already knew our name.

Some bloke rang saying I supposedly had a 3 year plan for drainage cover. When I told him I actually had a water leak problem, he just hung up on me. This number has called me before about “Nuisance call prevention” stuff. Complete rip off!

Today, I got a call from CPS claiming I owed them money on a contract. I made it clear I never signed any agreement and they won’t be receiving a penny from me. Definitely sounds like a scam!

Changed my phone number not long ago after switching broadband suppliers. The caller on the other end used the name of the old owner. When I told them I wasn’t that person and asked who they were, they snapped at me, asking if I was fishing for private details that weren’t meant to be mine. Honestly, I just wanted to know who was calling so I could be polite about the number change. After that, I’ve decided not to pick up if they call again.

Got a call saying I was overcharged on plumbing work done by British Gas. They already knew the first four digits of my card and asked for the rest! I don’t handle the bills, my partner does. I didn’t give any card details over the phone. She said her manager would ring me back in about three minutes to verify the call was genuine, and then I could call a number to double-check. I kept saying no thanks and asked if they could send the documents first before I did anything. That’s when she just hung up on me!

Got a call saying I have to pay seven quid each month to avoid annoying calls. I thought the TPS handled that for free? Anyway, I just blocked the number.

Got a call from someone pretending to be the Telephone Preference Service, but they were actually after my bank info. They seemed quite convincing and even gave an 0800 471 4722 number to ring if you keep getting annoying calls. Just a heads up, the real TPS is totally free, so don’t fall for this scam.

My mother-in-law got a call from this number saying there was some issue with bad calls in the neighbourhood. They even knew her name, address, and a bit of her card info. Luckily, she couldn't locate her card, so she didn't end up sending them the £4 they asked for.

Tried calling but couldn’t get my message onto the voicemail, so I’ve just blocked the number now.

Got a call today from someone who was trying to sell call blocking, said they had links with BT which sounded pretty legit. At one point they asked for my bank card details but I didn’t give anything away. Told them to call back and speak to my husband instead, which i’m still waiting on.

Please stop ringing me, you're just wasting my time.
