6 monthsUgh, it’s got to be some sort of computer programme making these calls, so many of them! Total scam vibes, grrr!6 monthsGot two calls today and my TrueCall gadget blocked both. Honestly, it's way better than depending on TPS, which is totally useless and doesn't do a thing.TrueCallTPS7 monthsSomebody called me up saying I was eligible for a free medical alert pendant.7 monthsLoads of people have said it’s a scam. I just went ahead and blocked the number.7 monthsGot another call about Medicare, this makes the fifth number trying the same scam. I've blocked them all now.7 monthsThey rang me at 14:01 and then called once more at 14:56, but didn’t leave any voicemail.7 monthsThey didn’t leave any message, so I have no clue what it was about. Probably just some spam or telemarketer. I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number.7 monthsGot a couple of calls from this number over two days. Didn’t answer the first time, but the second time someone with an accent said they were Jim from Medicare. Didn’t hang around, ended the call quick. Feels like a scam to me.Jim7 monthsThey called my elderly mum, who’s 90, and somehow convinced her to hand over her bank info for a supposed charge of £290. What freaked me out more was how they kept probing with all sorts of personal questions, like whether she lives by herself. Does the Police know about this? Aren’t they doing anything to protect our elderly folks from these awful people taking advantage of them? It’s really heartbreaking.Police7 monthsGot called a couple of times today by someone overseas trying to scam me.Got7 monthsGot a call about 10 minutes back, and my son picked up. He swore a bit under his breath and then just cut the call. Definitely sounded like a scammer.7 monthsReceived a call around 1pm today, but they didn’t leave any voicemail. Could be a spammer or something dodgy.7 monthsThey called two times but stayed silent, so I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number.7 monthsMy phone buzzed, but the second I answered, I got nothing but silence.7 monthsI had a call from a woman claiming her name was Jessica, said she was from India. She tried to sell me a "free" medical alarm, which she said was worth £400. Then she asked for my bank details to take £29 a month. I even told her I had cancer and diabetes to put her off, but she just kept going like she was reading from a script. Really upsetting that folks like this are out there.JessicaIndia7 monthsThe person on the phone had really bad English and was trying to sell some sort of medical alert system. Definitely seemed like a scam to me.7 monthsGot calls two days in a row from what sounded like an Indian number, some kind of medical equipment scam I reckon. Didn't bother answering the second time.Got7 monthsAs soon as I picked up, they just ended the call straight away.7 monthsCouldn’t hear anyone on the line, probably some kind of spam call.7 monthsI pretty much told them to shove their blasted medical alert right where the sun don't shine.7 monthsI didn’t even really listen, but it was obvious they were up to something dodgy!7 monthsGot a call but no voicemail left, just hung up straight away.7 monthsSounds like a right awful lot of dodgy callers! When the phone rang, nobody said a word, so we just ended the call. Going through the reviews here now, I’m actually relieved we kept quiet. We’ve had just about enough of these nasty scammers preying on older folks and anyone easy to trick.7 monthsI picked up when the phone rang but as soon as I said something, the call just dropped.7 monthsI just said hello and the caller hung up straight away without saying a word or offering anything. I’ve gone ahead and blocked that number now.7 monthsEnded the call right after the voicemail started.7 monthsIt's so annoying when you're disabled and you finally answer a call that might matter, only for them to hang up straight away. Proper frustrating!7 monthsThey claimed to be calling from some medical service, but since they didn’t mention any particular company, I figured it was probably a scam.7 monthsGot a call from someone claiming to be with the medical alert company that rings me weekly to check in. I was a bit thrown off. They said I was eligible for an upgrade on my alarm and proceeded to describe the exact model I’m already using. Felt like a total scam, so I played along for a bit before telling them exactly what I thought of their nonsense! Calls like these are really troubling, especially for disabled folks who already rely on these systems. It feels pretty risky to me!7 monthsMy house phone rang but no one said a word. I can imagine how freaky that must be for some folks. These calls have got to end, it shouldn’t be that tricky to put a stop to them. BT should really stop handing out landline numbers to these types. We definitely need tighter regulations on this.BT7 monthsSo this guy rang me up asking if I was "---------", and stupidly, I said yeah. He went on about some medical thing I'd supposedly qualified for, but honestly, I couldn’t really catch what he was on about ‘cause his Indian accent was really thick. He never told me his name or where he was calling from, so I just ended the call.7 monthsIt definitely had that old fax machine vibe to it. Pretty sure it was some kind of scam. Not buying it.7 monthsHonestly, it amazes me that people still fall for these obvious scams nowadays.7 monthsPicked up the phone and the caller just hung up straight away. Didn’t recognise the number, so I’m guessing it’s a no from me.7 monthsHonestly, these callers should either find something better to do or just move away. I hardly bother answering my phone nowadays - it’s just pointless and costs me cash. There ought to be a way to block calls from unknown numbers like you can on smartphones.7 monthsI ignored the call since the number was unfamiliar, and they never bothered to leave any sort of message.7 monthsI keep getting calls that are dead silent, mostly in the early hours or during the weekend. It's quite annoying.7 monthsIt was making some weird beeping sounds, like an old fax machine. Pretty sure it was a scam.7 monthsGot a call from this number again today, something about a medical alarm. Can't believe they've rung me twice in one day. Do they think I'm daft or what?7 monthsDidn’t get a reply, just ended the call as soon as I said some harsh words. Bloody annoying!7 monthsGot my third annoying call of the day, and again, no one was speaking on the other end. After all the other calls I've had today, it’s starting to feel pretty fishy.7 monthsGot a call from someone saying I’m eligible for a personal alarm, but luckily that’s not something I require!7 monthsAnswered the call but they just hung up straight away, so I’m none the wiser about what kind of scam it was.7 monthsSomebody called claiming they were from medical services, I just ended the call straight away.7 monthsI just picked up and put the phone down straight away, didn’t catch what kind of scam they were trying this time, but honestly, I don’t need any alarm services.7 monthsGot a call saying my personal alarm needs an update, or it’ll just stop working soon. Bit suspicious if you ask me.7 monthsThey rang up asking for the person who had the number like 9 years back or something? I reckon whoever had it then was probably targeted by some scammy lot. They tried to sell me a personal alarm system too.7 monthsGot a call on my landline from a man with a foreign accent claiming to represent some medical service I'd never heard of. He was trying to sell personal alarm systems for people over 50 and wanted to know my birth date. I said no way. Then he admitted he gets why I’d be cautious since scams are so common nowadays. I told him I reckon this was one of those scams and promptly ended the call.7 monthsThey just cut me off right after I stayed silent.Submit Your Own Report (0191 716 1111)
