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

I got a call from someone who didn’t sound like their first language was English, saying they were ringing on behalf of UK National. When I asked what organisation that was, they told me it was a data management firm and wanted to quickly ask me some questions. I told them to take me off their list right away.

For several days I kept getting calls from the same number, about three or four times a day. When I finally picked up and told the bloke I wasn’t interested in their survey and asked them to stop ringing, he said the calls would only end if I actually answered the questions. Quite annoying really.

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 got a call from someone speaking with a really strong Indian accent, who said they were from the "UK Department of Life Protect". They claimed my life insurance provider had told them I hadn’t checked my policy for a while, and mentioned some government benefit that I supposedly needed to sign up for through them. I couldn’t catch most of what they were saying, so I asked which company holds my life insurance policy - and they refused to tell me, saying I wasn’t allowed to know. When I asked if their company was FCA-registered, they insisted they were, claiming they’re the only ones authorised to speak for all UK life insurers. Then they started talking about a pension review, but when I tried to get them to explain if this was about life insurance or a pension, they just hung up on me.

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 got a call from a guy called Brian, said he was from the work pensions dept but his English was all over the place. I couldn’t help but laugh, then he joked about calling his dad before hanging up on me!

I got a call about some life insurance, but the bloke wouldn't say which company it was from. He threatened to cancel the policy and slap me with a £400 fine. When he asked who the policy was with, I told him he should already know if he was planning to cancel it.

I got a call from some bloke named Brian saying my life insurance was about to expire. Problem is, he never said which company he was from or even bothered to mention my name. After a bit of mucking about, I just told him I wasn’t buying his story and made sure to tell him exactly where he could shove it.
