They keep calling me around five times every single day, it's really annoying.

I received a phone call from someone whose primary language isn't English, claiming to be affiliated with a UK national organisation. When I inquired about their identity, they mentioned it was a data management firm and claimed they needed to ask me some questions that wouldn't take up too much of my time. I promptly requested to have my details removed from their database.

I've been receiving incessant calls for several days now, ringing me up around three or four times. Eventually, I managed to get a representative on the line and made it clear that I had no interest in participating in their survey. I kindly requested that they cease their calls. To my surprise, he replied that if I just answered his questions, the calls would be halted. Quite an odd proposition, if you ask me!

Numerous calls have been coming through. Each time, there’s a click followed by disconnection. It’s quite puzzling!

They kept ringing and said they were with housing disrepair. Told them a few times to quit calling but they didn't listen. I ended up blocking one number, but they had already tried contacting me on other phone numbers before. Proper annoying!

This was my first time getting a call from this spoofed number, though they've called me before from other fake numbers. The guy hung up right after about a minute and a bit. Definitely a scam, watch out!

I got a call from this spoofed number again, second time now. The person sounded like a UK national but was probably calling from India. They hung up after just 42 seconds. Pretty sure it's another scam since they've used different fake numbers before.

I got a call from a bloke speaking with a strong Indian accent, saying he was from the "UK Department of Life Protection." He claimed my life insurance firm had told them I hadn't checked my policy lately, and mentioned something about a government benefit I supposedly had to sign up for through them. Then he started talking about a pension review, but when I asked him if it was about life insurance or a pension, he just cut the call.

I received a rather peculiar phone call from an individual with a rather pronounced Indian accent. He claimed to represent something called the “UK Department of Life Protect” and stated that my life insurance provider had communicated to them that I hadn’t reviewed my policy in ages. He mentioned some sort of government benefit that requires my registration, but I could hardly catch half of what he was on about. Curiosity piqued, I inquired about the name of my insurance provider, only to be met with the absurd response that I didn’t have the right to that information! When I pressed him on whether his organisation was registered with the FCA, he assured me they were and claimed to be the sole entity permitted to act for all life insurance firms across the United Kingdom. He then pivoted to discuss a pension review, and when I asked him to specify whether we were discussing life insurance or pensions, he abruptly cut the line. A rather dodgy situation, I must say!

I chose not to pick up the phone when that number rang, so I went ahead and added it to my block list and did a little digging instead.

Got a call about my benefits and it was proper upsetting, they sounded really furious.

Got no clue who it was, but as soon as I picked up, they just ended the call. Seems like just another tosser seeing if my phone's still in use. Bet I'm gonna be swamped with scammy calls now. Seriously, don't these people have anything better to occupy their time?

I encountered a chap called Brian from the Department of Work and Pensions, and bless him, he was really having a tough time with English. I couldn't help but chuckle when he said he needed to ring his daddy before abruptly hanging up! Quite the amusing interaction, I must say!

I had quite the encounter regarding my life insurance policy. The chap on the other end refused to disclose which company it was with, claiming he intended to terminate the policy and impose a £400 penalty. When he inquired about which insurer I was dealing with, I replied that surely he ought to know, considering he was the one planning to cancel it!

I received a rather infuriating call from a bloke named Brian, who was going on about my life insurance nearing its expiration. The absolute numpty couldn’t even name the company he was on about, nor could he tell me my own name, despite him being the one ringing me! So, I rather civilly suggested he reassess his own lineage and provided him with some rather particular directions on where he might like to head off to next.
