1 yearI got one of those calls claiming to be from Tesco, total scam! They tried to trick me into giving my details. Watch out, folks, it’s not real!Tesco2 yearsAnother call from the typical overseas scammer pushing fake medical insurance. These people really should be caught and locked up for good. Sadly, with this terrible Labour government, it’s unlikely anything will change! Absolute scammers.Labour2 yearsI just had a call from 01479 827601. There was this automated woman’s voice asking me to press 1 if I'd made two big payments from my bank earlier today. I ended the call straight away and added the number to my block list.2 yearsGot a call from a posh-sounding woman named Jane who said her info showed we could get solar panels installed. I was polite but made it clear she shouldn’t call me again. I’m sure she’ll ignore that and ring back anyway!Jane2 yearsthe call got cut pretty quick as soon as it started going to voicemail.2 yearsJust received a call around half an hour ago from someone named “Sam,” claiming to be a “medic” local to my area. He was promoting some sort of pendant device for emergencies, particularly for those prone to falls. I kindly informed him that I wasn’t interested and ended the conversation.Sam2 yearsGot a call from some telemarketer pushing medical alert pendants. Didn’t even care that I’m on the TPS list. Proper annoying.Telephone Preference Service2 yearsGot a call from 01887827601 around 12.45 today. It went straight to voicemail and the guy claimed to be a healthcare worker from our local area. Thing is, the number’s actually from Scotland - 01887 - which is way far from where I live in Wiltshire. I also heard other voices chatting in the background, but he quickly ended the call before I could find out more. Proper dodgy if you ask me.ScotlandWiltshire2 yearsI received a call on my mobile earlier. When my voicemail kicked in, I heard a rather disgruntled 'Hmmpp' noise from the caller, who I think was a chap. He didn't bother to leave a message and just hung up. Quite puzzling, really!2 yearsGot a call from some annoying person pushing a healthcare pendant. I told him straight away that he’d got a business number and to take us off their list at once. He just wouldn’t stop talking, had to be quite firm with him. This number is a real pain and ought to be blocked ASAP. It’s quite scary for anyone vulnerable, especially with how pushy he was.2 yearsI received a rather peculiar call today. A chap on the other end claimed to be a medical representative for my locality and proceeded to inform me about some supposed health concerns I might have. To top it off, he was keen on offering me a complimentary alarm cord. I politely declined, stating that I had no need for it, and lo and behold, he simply cut the conversation short and hung up on me.2 yearsTotal rip off!2 yearsGot a call from 01887827601 with a voicemail about SAM local health care or something, said "How are you". The message was only a few seconds but then the recording kept going for like three minutes with just some background noise and random chatter. Bit strange really.SAM2 yearsI have a strong suspicion this is an automated voice on the other end, as it seems to have a rather narrow set of replies.2 yearsThis is definitely a scam. How come BT still hasn’t shut this number down?BT2 yearsI keep receiving calls from an incredibly pushy telemarketer who’s trying to sell me a medical alarm system. Quite coincidentally, this has been happening right after I reached out to my local hospital about an upcoming visit. Seems a tad too convenient, if you ask me!2 yearsThey were ringing up trying to sell me one of those emergency red pendants, but I wasn’t interested at all.2 yearsSome bloke called himself Sam, said he was a Health Care Worker near me and reckoned my records show I’m vulnerable with serious health issues I wasn’t even told about. He insisted I should have a medical alarm tag on me. Problem was, he couldn’t even say who he was supposed to be ringing. When I asked him, he just shut up and kept going on with his rehearsed spiel. Quite dodgy if you ask me.Sam2 yearsOut of nowhere, I got a call from someone asking, "Can you hear me?" without saying who they were first. It seems like a sneaky way to figure out if the person picking up is older. The caller, who went by the name "Sam," definitely wasn’t a robot like some folks here said, but honestly, he wasn't very convincing. I really hope he manages to land a legit job and stays away from dodgy schemes.Sam2 yearsI received a call from someone who was particularly abrasive and dismissive, utterly talking over me whenever I attempted to respond. It's quite baffling why BT doesn't sever the connection and take legal action against such individuals, don’t you think?BT2 yearsI told them I already have a Lifeline when they called offering a free one, and then they just hung up on me.Lifeline2 yearsJust a silent ring, no one there.2 yearsThe individual purporting to be a healthcare professional mentioned they were contacting me regarding my postcode, but never actually specified which one it was. After that, there was an awkward silence on the line.2 yearsScam calls offering lifeline gadgets are going around, mostly targeting elderly or those who might need extra help. If you’ve got friends or family who are in that group, make sure they’re careful and don’t get tricked. Usually, things like lifeline devices are sorted out through health services or social workers, not random phone sales.2 yearsClaims to be a healthcare professional, stating that if you have any medical issues, you might qualify for additional assistance. When I probed about whether he was directly employed by the NHS, he faltered a bit. I even prompted him with a simple yes or no, and he eventually mentioned that he collaborates with NHS staff. I didn’t waste any time and hung up right then and there.NHS2 yearsSilent call, no response at all.2 yearsThis number just rang me a moment ago, and when I picked up, some weird voice asked if I could hear them. I instantly recognised it as a dodgy health-related scam and hung up straight away without saying a word. I've had calls like that before too. My phone number is unlisted and I’m on the TPS, nevertheless, these scam calls keep coming through.Telephone Preference Service2 yearsI rang a number that's on the TPS list and now I’m trying to work out which company it belongs to, so we can report them for persistent nuisance calls.Telephone Preference Service2 yearsI received a call from someone who claimed to be a healthcare professional in my locality, but then they suddenly fell silent. I strongly advise against returning the call!2 yearsI've had a right nuisance with a number that's listed with the Telephone Preference Service. I'm keen to uncover which company is behind it so that I can flag them as a dodgy scam outfit and ensure they face a fine for their bothersome antics.Telephone Preference Service2 yearsGot a call on my landline from someone pretending to be a healthcare worker offering a free pendant alarm service. I looked them up online and confirmed it was a scam. Just told them I wasn’t interested and ended the call straight away.2 yearsI got a call the other day and straight away asked what info they had on me. The person said their line manager handles it daily, but he sounded way too informed about my details. I flagged it as a data protection issue and told them off. They immediately promised to take my name off the list, then just hung up. This kind of call can be really risky for older folks who might not spot a scam. The caller spoke to me in a way that felt oddly familiar before mentioning some kind of help or aids they could offer. I didn’t share a thing with him, though.Protection2 yearsI received an unexpected call from what claimed to be a medical provider.2 yearsHe asked me if I could hear him first... then said I qualify for some sort of personal medical alert device.2 yearsI let the answerphone pick it up, but the person on the other end just stayed quiet and hung up.2 yearsGot a call about some emergency alert device for health care or something. I kept telling the person we don’t need it at all, but they just didn’t get the message and kept going with their spiel. When they still wouldn’t quit, I had to just tell them off pretty bluntly and tell them to buzz off.2 yearsOn 23/6/24 around 3.50 pm, I was waiting for a really important call from our son, so this was super frustrating. It took me a good while to get up and reach the phone because of my mobility problems - probably took under 10 seconds. When I finally picked up and said “hello,” there was nothing but silence, then strange sounds, and the call ended abruptly. It’s beyond irritating, and honestly, it’s made me quite angry. I really hope you manage to get to the bottom of this!2 yearsGot a call from someone named "Sam" about healthcare stuff on this number. Didn’t pick up cause I was pretty sure it was a scam.Sam2 yearsReceived a nuisance call on my mobile, and they didn’t bother to leave a voicemail.2 yearsGot a message from some automated voice going by the name Sam, who claimed to be my local health care worker. Tried to ask where they were calling from, but obviously the robot Sam wasn’t set up to answer any questions. Pretty clear it was a scam call. (And yes, Wooly Bully and the Pharaohs came to mind!)Sam2 yearsSomeone was calling about a “free” red button and just would not hear anything I said. I wasn’t very polite and told them to buzz off or something along those lines. They were really good at ignoring me.2 yearsI said yes when they asked if I could hear them and then they just hung up on me.2 yearsI got a call from a chap named Sam, who was touting a complimentary medical panic pendant. I promptly informed him that I had no interest in such a gadget.Sam2 yearsGot a call at 8.05 in the morning about replacing windows and doors through something called the Refresh scheme. When I asked how they got my number and told them it was a bit too early for such calls, they just hung up on me. The number they called from was 01887827601.2 yearsI didn’t pick up, and they didn’t leave a message either. It wasn't a number from a mobile phone.2 yearsGot a call on my home phone from this number earlier. I chose not to pick up and after looking into it, I’m definitely not gonna answer if they try again! Seems like the TPS isn’t doing much to stop these calls.Telephone Preference Service2 yearsThis bloke called me, said he was David and worked for some window firm. He mentioned a deal called Refresh and said that if my windows were more than 10 years old, they could get me new ones with half off. When I asked him how he got my number, he just hung up on me.DavidRefresh2 yearsSomebody called claiming to be from healthcare. I asked if they wanted to have a chat, but they just stayed silent. Then they switched to trying to sell me emergency pendants. I just said goodbye.2 yearsThe guy said his name was Sam and offered to send me a free health pendant, but as soon as I mentioned I live with my family, he just ended the call.Sam2 yearsI chose not to pick up.2 yearsGot a call from someone suggesting I need an emergency alert necklace because of my medical issues. I asked who they were representing, but before I could get an answer, he just said he had a brilliant plan and would send me one for free. I didn’t catch much after that as I ended the call.2 yearsGot repeated calls about some free pendant, but the so-called "free" bit is a joke. Ive lost count, over ten calls now, and it seems like the more I answer, the more they keep ringing me up. Proper annoying!2 yearsFrom an apparent health worker for my area, I live in the South, a call came from a Scottish number! They said I could get a health alarm free of charge. When I asked what my condition was, he had no idea. There was a lot of silence between speaking. Very annoying.2 yearsWe got a call from some bloke who started talking about health problems before trying to sell us emergency pendants. Took a while before he got to the point. Honestly, I really don’t like these calls popping up out of nowhere, especially when they target folks who might be struggling.2 yearsPretty clear they wanted to speak to a woman, so I just hung up straight away.2 yearsThe guy on the phone seemed lost in what he was supposed to say. After a bit, he just told me his name was Sam. Then he switched gears and started going on about medical pendants, reading from another script it sounded like.Sam2 yearsFinally, someone’s done something about these scams. If you get a dodgy call, text 7726 like the police’s fraud site says. It’s worth having a look at their site for more tips too. And seriously, don’t answer or reply to any random cold calls. Don’t even say “yes” - they’ll twist that into you agreeing to stuff. Stay safe!Action Fraud2 yearsGot a call from some bloke trying to give me a free personal alarm. When I told him I wasn't interested, he turned proper rude and started getting aggressive. Then, when I asked him how he even got my number, he just hung up on me. Really unpleasant experience.2 yearsMy phone flagged this number as potential spam and telemarketer, so I chose to ignore it. It came through about 25 minutes after another call from 01259764773, which, after checking the comments, seems to be connected to a health-related scam that quite a few others mentioned here as well.2 yearsJust got a call from an automated voice pushing a medical alert alarm. Definitely a scam! I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number straight away.2 yearsGot a call out of the blue today, really didn't expect it.2 yearsA few weeks back, I got a call from a very similar number and it was definitely a health care scam. Today, the same number rang me again, but I decided not to pick up.2 yearsSome bloke told me he was “Sam, a health care worker nearby today.” But he kept pausing weirdly like he’d forgotten what to say next. I just told him “No thanks” and ended the call.Sam2 yearsAs soon as I answered, the caller immediately asked if I could hear him. I didn’t want to say yes or no, so I asked who it was. He said his name was Sam and that he was a health professional. He went on to say I had various health problems and might qualify for a free medical pendant. I quickly told him “you don’t have any of my details and I’m hanging up now.” Definitely a scam call. I’m on the TPS, so why am I getting these?SamTelephone Preference Service2 yearsI got a phone call from some guy who sounded really sketchy and confused about what he was supposed to be doing. He claimed to be a local health advisor or something like that, which I’ve never heard of before. He told me that because of my health issues, I was entitled to a free pendant alarm. When I asked him how he even knew about my medical stuff, he just stumbled over his words and couldn’t give a clear answer. So, I just ended the call.2 yearsGot a call from some bloke who stuttered - he was saying according to his info I didn’t have any medical alert device. I asked him what info he actually had about me, but he just kept going on and then abruptly cut me off. Funny thing is, he was ringing a kitchen showroom by mistake!Sam2 yearsGot a call from some dodgy robot bloke called Sam. Said something about a health alarm pendant - total scam, don’t fall for it!2 yearsGot a call from someone named Sam, who said he was from local healthcare.

Wasn’t even relevant to me!Sam2 yearsI reckon that number 01887827601 should definitely be blocked, total scammer!2 yearsGot a call from one of those annoying recorded marketing scams.2 yearsGot a call from an unfamiliar number, so I just went ahead and blocked it right away. Looks like just another scammer pretending to be a BT landline.2 yearsThey called about swapping out my double glazed windows and doors, totally ignoring the fact that I'm on the TPS.2 yearsAll this new laws and stuff, honestly, it just feels like more blah blah blah to me. Seems like they’re always changing the rules but nothing really gets better. Just a load of government talk that doesn’t make much difference in the end.2 yearsGot a call from some Estate Help Line or something - they kept going on about new laws and stuff, like over and over again. I asked the bloke if he was a parrot, but no answer. Just kept on repeating the same spiel three times.Estate Assistance Line2 yearsGot a call about landscaping and driveway services out of the blue.
