Got a call from a woman named Sharon, she said she was from Benefits UK. She mentioned I was the only one polite enough to thank her, which was a bit odd. Then she started asking the same questions she must've already known the answers to. I ended the call but she called straight back. I let it go to voicemail this time, but the call suddenly dropped and now the number won’t even ring through, it’s blocked. Strange experience!

I've had this number call me quite a few times, but whenever I answer, there's just silence. It's really irritating and gets on my nerves!

They rang me on the 23rd, then again on the 24th, and once more on the 31st of October 2018.

Got a call from a bloke, sounded Asian, said something like "Benefits UK, just 40 seconds of your time and then I won't bother you again." I kept quiet and he hung up after about 5 seconds. Honestly, try what I do and chuck these numbers on your BARRED list so they can't ring again.

Every time I pick up, they just hang up straight away. What a load of rubbish, they should really be blocked. Benefits in the UK? Yeah, right. Sorry Jim!!

Someone said there was an issue with my router but they gave me a totally different number to call back. Honestly, don’t pick up if it rings.

Got a call from some guy called Peter, sounded Asian, said he was from Benefits UK. He wanted to ask me a couple of quick questions and promised he wouldn’t bother me again (bit rich since they called from another number just the day before!). I just told him I’m not interested in answering any questions and slammed the phone down. Honestly, these unwanted calls are getting way out of control, someone really needs to sort this mess out.

Since I stopped picking up, they keep ringing non stop from this number. Can't seem to get them to back off!

I got a call from you benefits. The guy said he’d keep ringing me until I answered and even threatened me. Then he just hung up. A caller from Benefits UK tried the same thing, really pushy and rude.

For the past couple of days, this number has rung at about 11 in the morning. I stayed quiet, and they just ended the call after about five seconds.

Got called 3 times by someone who just stays silent when I pick up. Had enough now, so I’ve blocked the number.

Got a call from an Asian guy who kept saying “hello? hello?” over and over again.

Got a call from someone who sounded Asian and their English was really bad. They actually asked for me by name. When I asked who exactly wanted me, they just dropped the call. Such a pain.

Just got another pointless ring from some benefits call centre, prob based in Asia to dodge Ofcom rules. When on earth will the UK sort this out and actually regulate these calls properly? Such a waste of time.

No one spoke when I answered. Just silence on the other end.
