8 yearsBest thing to do is just ignore them and don’t pick up when those calls come through.8 yearsMy mum, who’s 93, keeps getting these persistent phone calls from some folks who just won’t accept a no. They keep ringing us even though we’ve told them we can’t talk because there’s a family emergency and we’re waiting for an important call. It’s really not fair to pester her like this at her age.8 yearsGot another ring from those annoying BENEFITS UK lot. When I try to get their company info to lodge a complaint, they just cut me off. They used to be on my phone up to 4 times every day, but now I just shout like a lunatic into the phone, and it’s only about once daily now.BENEFITSUK8 yearsThis number has rang me a bunch of times, always with some survey stuff. I told them a few times to stop calling, yet they just keep on ringing!8 yearsI got a call for the second time from some guy with a weird accent, asking if my dad was around. Thing is, he passed away nearly four years ago. I told him to piss off!8 yearsGot a call from a number showing as Wrexham, seemed like a local UK line. An Asian lady asked if I could spare a minute for a quick survey. I asked how she got my number since I’m ex-directory and always have been. She just cut me off right in the middle, really rude. Clearly an untrustworthy or dodgy outfit trying something fishy. Tried ringing back but the number didn’t exist anymore. Honestly, why don’t they make laws to stop these annoying cold calls?WrexhamUK8 yearsThey kept ringing me over and over, with a strange accent on the line. When I asked who was calling, they just cut off the call straight away.

It’s always a bloke with an accent asking for someone who’s not me, then he just hangs up right after. Really confusing!8 yearsGot a call from 01978759568 - guy was mumbling about benefits but I couldn’t catch much. Strangely, he had my full name, address and postcode. When I asked him what’s the reason for the call, he just hung up on me. Weird to get a call like this from a North Wales number.North Wales8 yearsI've had like 4 or 5 calls from loads of different numbers, which I just block straight away. But it's no use 'cause they keep switching them up. They always mess up my last name when they say it, and keep talking about benefits stuff that doesn’t even concern us.
