This is the third time you’ve rung me in just two days - maybe take the hint and leave a message before expecting me to pick up!

Got a call from someone with an Asian accent who wanted me to verify my name, address, and postcode. They even knew my wife's name, which was a bit creepy. Then, out of nowhere, they just ended the call.

Number didn’t show up on BT Call Guardian, so I’m guessing it was either a call centre or some sort of scam. I’ve gone ahead and blocked it now.

Got a call from 01942 261771 this evening, sounded like a bloke with an English accent. I usually just answer and stay quiet to see who’s on the other end. If I don’t know their voice, I just let them drop the call. Works for me!

About ten minutes back, this number rang me up, asked for my name and postcode, then abruptly ended the call in a really rude way. Definitely looks like another scam, so watch out!

Got a call from a bloke with an Asian accent. He wanted to know if Mrs ####### was home. I told him she wasn’t and then he asked if Mr ####### was there, even dropped the exact address and postcode along with first names. I asked what it was about and if I could pass on a message, but he just said it was some kind of verification thing and then cut the call. Felt a bit dodgy, definitely seems like a scammer trying their luck.

I got a call from this number supposedly for “line verification.” Honestly, don’t say YES if they ask you, you never know what you're actually signing up for with them. Feels dodgy to me!

Got a call from someone saying they were the police and started pestering my ten year old kid to give up mum’s name, address and postcode. Proper worried me as it felt off - asking a child about parents like that just isn’t right. Looks like a total scam trying to dig out private details. Don’t trust it!

We got a call from this number but it somehow managed to bypass our call blocker, so sounds like it’s just like what others are saying. We’ve added it to our block list now though. Honestly, it’s really unfair that decent folks have to deal with this nonsense all the time. A mate of ours, who’s quite elderly, gets pestered by these nuisance callers all the time but she couldn’t handle using a call blocker since she often shares her number with people.

My little one, who’s 8, picked up the phone earlier and said some man with an Indian accent wanted to know if this was the right postcode. My kid just said yes without really understanding. Now he’s all worried he might’ve messed up or something. I really hate these types of calls, they’re so confusing!

A guy with an Asian accent kept asking me to verify my address and name. When I tried to find out who he was, he said some organisation's name that I couldn’t make out. After a while, I just hung up and told him I wasn’t sharing any personal details. He kept pushing though. Just another annoying day dealing with these nonstop calls.

I got a call from a man with an Asian accent who got really annoyed when I refused to answer his questions. I handed the phone over to my partner, and they ended up having a pretty ugly row because we just wanted him to take our number off their call list. Usually, they hang up quick before you can ask how they even got your details. What a rude bloke! I've had to block about seven different numbers just this week. It’s shocking that decent people like us have to tolerate these rude, persistent interruptions.
