I've had a call from this number previously; they simply uttered a "hello" and then left me hanging, which has led me to believe they're fishing for a "yes" response, especially with all the other feedback I've come across.

We received a call that seemed linked to a government initiative in our locality. We typically don’t entertain calls that come out of the blue, so we ended the conversation promptly. Likely just another scam attempt, if you ask me!

My wife picked up the phone when it rang. They only managed to get our last name before saying they’d ring us again. I’m really pleased I looked into it! 👍

This number relentlessly pings my home phone but never leaves a message. I've tried to block it on 1572, but it shows as withheld, even though the digits still appear. It’s high time the Telephone Preference Service put a stop to this nuisance! It’s been going on for five years now!

I received a call today from the telephone number 0203 3180772. A gentleman claiming to be from Estate Planning contacted me. His purpose was to obtain the correct spelling of my surname for a scheduled follow-up call. However, when I inquired about his surname, he could not provide an answer. Suspicious of this inconsistency, I ended the call. It seems highly likely that this number is associated with a scam.

I'm curious as to why BT/Open Reach hasn’t taken steps to block this particular number. It seems rather odd, doesn't it?

It appeared to be a robotic voice when I picked up. I said ‘Hello,’ but since there was no further response on my end, the call ended after roughly twenty seconds.

Beware, everyone! I had a rather dodgy experience with a call that seemed to be automated yet crafted to sound human-like. First, it inquired whether I was the homeowner, then hurled a couple more questions at me before the system even noted my initial response. Before I could gain any clarity, the call just dropped without warning. Definitely suspicious!

Received a robotic call that cut off as soon as I tried to elaborate beyond a simple yes or no. Definitely feels like some sort of scam attempt, if you ask me.

Had a call that was obviously a robocall, purporting to be from a supposedly reputable estate planning service. They kept pestering me, trying to coax me into responding with a 'yes.'
It’s glaringly apparent this is a fraud!

I received a call from someone claiming to be inquiring about a government maintenance initiative relevant to my locality, and they wanted to confirm if I owned my property. When I probed for details regarding the specific area he was referring to, he abruptly hung up. Quite suspicious, if you ask me!

The caller didn't even bother to introduce himself and instead dived straight into a long-winded pitch about some will writing service. I made it clear that it was clearly a cold call and that I had no interest whatsoever. I reiterated my disinterest a couple of times before finally indicating I was terminating the conversation.

I've received two phone calls from an individual who identified themselves as a representative from Estates Management. They mentioned a report that was aired on the BBC, but when I expressed hesitation in answering their questions regarding my status as a homeowner and requested more information about the report, they seemed taken aback by my off-script inquiries. Eventually, they gave up and abruptly ended the call. I vaguely recall their name possibly being Alex or Alexander.

Spam caller.

Receive a call providing complimentary guidance on safeguarding your residence against seizure in the event that you require care. The individual refrained from disclosing their identity and asserted that they cannot share their email or telephone information, as they solely provide assistance through zoom calls. Undeniably, their attempt seemed focused on acquiring my personal information, but considering they only possessed my name, I declined their offer.

It seems that estate planning has become the latest excuse for unsolicited calls, hasn't it?
I spoke with a chap named ‘Sam’ who claimed he was still learning the ropes. However, the pauses between his replies, along with him parroting one of my questions back at me, led me to suspect that he might actually be a bot rather than a real person.
In my opinion, it stinks of a scam!

It seems like they're masquerading as a government initiative. They've even gone to the trouble of hiring a rather believable Brit to deliver the recorded message!

Received a call from some chap looking for a bit of a dodgy chat, so I decided to block his number. It's baffling how these types can still get through to those who might be a bit more fragile. Seriously, why isn't there a way to just cut their phone lines for good? That’s the only sure-fire method to put an end to this nonsense.

A company is making claims that it can provide information on how to safeguard your home from care costs. However, there are various reviews suggesting that the calls were actually from a window and door company. This seems suspicious and could possibly be a scam.

"Information about 'estate planning services' has been circulating, particularly targeted at those of us who own property. With all these new rules and regulations from the government, it certainly raised some eyebrows. To me, it felt a bit too much like a push for wills or something along those lines. I decided to cut the conversation short and told them not to ring again before hanging up."

I received an unsolicited call about some so-called government grants aimed at homeowners. I must say, as soon as I mentioned that I'm not a homeowner, the person promptly wished me a lovely day and hung up. It was quite the swift exit! However, make no mistake, it’s clearly a scam.

I must say, it certainly seems like a bit of a con, as the Government isn't actually operating any scrappage initiative.

Over the past few months, we've had a fair few phone calls trying to sell us some sort of scheme to scrap our windows. We've asked them multiple times to take us off their list, but they seem to disregard our requests entirely. It's beginning to feel like a bit of a con to me. Best to steer clear!

Just like others have experienced, I have been receiving unsolicited cold calls from a company selling windows and doors. It seems that they use a pre-recorded message during the calls. Interestingly, I am hoping they call me again so that I can hear their contact information at the end of the message. Rest assured, I plan to report these nuisance calls to the ICO (Information Commissioner's Office).

I had a rather frustrating conversation with Sam, a representative from a door and window company. He was discussing a potential scrappage scheme for windows and doors that are over ten years old. Unfortunately, Sam did not seem interested in addressing my inquiries and abruptly ended the call by hanging up on me.

I received a rather insistent phone call today regarding a scheme for replacing windows that are more than a decade old. The chap just wouldn’t let me speak; it was as if he had no intention of pausing for breath! I eventually had to interrupt him just to get a moment to express myself. Quite exasperating, really.

It appears that this persistent caller thinks it's a game of chance—if one number doesn’t get through, just try another! They rang me earlier today from 02033180755 and have now decided to mix it up with a slightly altered number. Honestly, just ignore them as they are nothing but a nuisance.

I was given this number as a point of contact for a free trial I enrolled in for those Raspberry Ketone capsules. To my dismay, I’ve just realised they’re planning to bill me for it. A bit of digging online reveals that they might just deduct £200 for a mere 120 tablets! Take heed of this number, my friends! The promotion was marketed as if it were from a trustworthy establishment, yet I can't seem to track it down anymore.
