It showed up as Spam so I chose not to pick up. They always call when I'm busy or in the middle of something.

Got a sketchy call from someone pretending to be from a so called 'industrial injury centre' or sumthin. They started going on about claims for injuries at work. When I asked how they even got my number, the 'woman' just hung up on me! Definitely a scam and annoying as hell.

I’ve been getting calls from this number 01918160842 for a few days now and kept ignoring them. But today I decided to call back, turns out it’s some firm called Bold or something like that.

I received a call from a firm named "Bulb," attempting to peddle gas and electricity services. Interestingly, they've also rung me from a couple of other numbers, which, funny enough, appear to be out of service now - specifically 44 7357 003130 and 44 191 816 1006. I’m starting to have my doubts about their legitimacy.

Received a couple of calls on my mobile. I declined the first one because the number was unfamiliar, then powered off my phone. The subsequent attempt is noted in my call log.

Cheers for all the feedback guys, i usually just ignore calls from numbers i dont know - but these lot dont seem to be tied to any one firm. One minute it’s a phone company, next its an energy provider - sounds like a dodgy scam to me. If they were legit, they’d be sticking to one company like Octopus, not swapping between phones, Bulb and whoever else they fancy. Ive blocked them and put my number on delay. Honestly, When will someone step up and sort this out? Everyone moans but nothing ever changes!!

Got a couple of calls earlier saying they were from Octopus, so I called the number they gave me back. Left a message saying it was from a company called Bold. Bit suspicious if you ask me.

0191 816 0842 from Tyneside kept ringing me nonstop yesterday and today. They never left any voicemail or explanation. After all these annoying cold calls, I’ve stopped picking up calls from unfamiliar numbers. Saw what others said about this number and finally decided to block it. Honestly, these constant pestering calls ought to be illegal!

This number has been ringing me non stop, like three times yesterday and at least once today, trying to get me to switch my phone plan to save cash. I wasn’t having any of it and told them to shove off. Blocked them straight away!

Isn't it supposed to be against BT or landline regulations to keep calling and harassing people? I've had this so-called "Tyneside" number ring me three times every day, always right at 9:01 in the morning and then again sometime between 5 and 6 in the evening. Feels like they've been warned before for dodgy behaviour. This week alone, I've got 12 calls from different versions of this 0191 area code. Proper annoying!

My elderly mum got a call from some people claiming she could save money on her phone bill. They didn’t say who they were but asked for her info, and she ended up sharing it all. Turns out it was a scam to trick her out of her details.

So, these numbers 0191 8160842 from North Shields and 0191 3897318 from Durham have been blowing up my phone for days! I picked up once and they were trying to talk mobile contracts, but I told them I’m already sorted. Next time they called, they were asking about debts, which I found a bit odd. After that, I stopped picking up. They've rung me like 19 times so far, with the latest just about an hour ago. Definitely adding them to my blocked list now.

Got a call from some bloke earlier asking about my health, never said who he was or what he wanted. I didn’t say anything though, don’t like sharing that kinda stuff with strangers, especially when I’m not even sure what’s wrong with me.
