Didn’t get any voicemail, probably a scam so I blocked the number.

I got a call claiming my house was one of the few in my postcode without insulation, apparently on some kind of register. When I asked them to say which area exactly, they just hung up straight away. Definitely sounds dodgy to me.

They told me I was flagged on High Alert 'cause I supposedly need a medical alert device.

These lot keep trying different numbers like 02045 1627, 46, 40, and 24, but they never get past the BT's call guardian system we have. They’re all blocked now, which is a relief. Proper pain in the neck they are!

Got a call from 0204516724 around 9.15 this morning. The bloke said he was from something like "Estate Protection" and went on about some scary news on BBC that the government might force people to sell their homes to pay for care. I wrapped up the call nicely and hung up. Looks like this number is linked to all sorts of dodgy stuff! After checking out a bunch of other comments, I'd say it's definitely a scam. I've blocked the number now.

I got a call from 02045162724 about my loft insulation, asking if it’s been inspected in the past three years. The caller also wanted to know how old I was. Feels like they might be singling out older folks. Anyone else getting these calls?

As soon as I picked up, the call ended instantly, so I blocked the number right away.

I have no clue who it was, my call guardian stopped it right away which usually means its a spam or nuisance call. I've blocked the number now.

Somebody rang saying they were from a solar energy advice outfit. I told them we’re on the telephone preference service so they shouldn’t be calling, and asked them to take us off their list. They just refused and then cut me off! Proper rude.

I reckon it was one of those loft insulation scams, cos I couldn’t find any info about the company anywhere.

Got a call from someone offering a free medical alert pendant, saying I had some health or mobility problems. I ended the call quickly since it wasn’t true and they wouldn’t tell me how they got my number.

Someone called saying he was Alex from an energy company about insulation. I just hung up straight away. Definitely felt like a scam.

I had a rather chatty conversation with a youthful-sounding chap who was promoting a complimentary medical alert pendant. He seemed quite articulate, but I couldn't shake the feeling that something was amiss. When I probed him with a few questions, he graciously thanked me and abruptly ended the call. A reverse number search yielded no results, and when I tried to ring him back, I got a message saying that calls to this number aren’t currently being connected. Quite suspicious, if you ask me!

I got a call with silence on the other end, so I've gone ahead and blocked that number now.

This morning at 9.03 on 25th January, i got a call from this number on our landline. Seriously, dont pick up or ring back, it’s some dodgy scammers. They never speak when you answer, just keep ringing you over and over. I reckon they pass your info to bigger scammers who then nick money from your bank. Happened to us last week, it was a nightmare. We’ve had to change all our contact info now to be safe.

I got a call from a polite, quite young guy saying he was giving out free medical alert pendants for elderly folks who might need them. His message sounded well practised, but I couldn’t shake off the feeling that something was off. When I looked up the number, no business showed up and calling it back just ended with a message saying you can’t ring this number right now. Bit dodgy if you ask me.

Didn’t bother to leave a voicemail. This number, along with a similar one I’ve encountered, consistently fails to leave any messages at all.

I received a call from a rather articulate gentleman who had a youthful tone, saying he was promoting a complimentary medical alert pendant. It seemed quite credible, but I couldn’t shake the feeling that something was off about it. I attempted to do a bit of research online, but all I could find were pages for reporting such calls. When I tried to return the call, I was met with a recorded message saying that calls to this number aren’t able to go through at the moment. Quite puzzling, really!

I got a rather dubious call from this number, where the chap on the other end asserted that his company had a roster of individuals deemed clinically vulnerable and supposedly eligible for a complimentary pendant. When I inquired about the source of this list and who provided it to him, he promptly hung up the phone on 020 4516 2724. It's impossible to return the call, which suggests it's just a front for some sort of scam. I've made sure to report this to the Information Commissioner's Office. I would advise everyone to stay vigilant!

I received a rather peculiar phone call from a chap calling himself Chris, claiming to be with a 'local energy advisory service.' He seemed to think I was the owner of a residence, which piqued my curiosity. I probed him further, asking for the specific address he had in mind. He promptly became quite flustered and admitted he was new to the role, suggesting that his supervisor would be better positioned to address my queries. When I pressed him once more for my address, it became clear that he was rather out of his depth. Realising his ploy wasn’t going to work, he quickly thanked me for my time and hung up, not before I had a little chuckle and informed him that I recognised his attempted scam and would promptly be blocking his number through BT.

I received a call offering me a complimentary pendant, which I promptly hung up on. Honestly, calls like that really ought to be filtered out by the phone companies.

Got a call from someone saying they'd send a free pendant if I was past 50. They asked my age, but I didn’t say and instead asked who was calling and for a name. Then, they just ended the call.

Received a call from 0204 516 2724 about loft insulation. When the bloke asked for my surname, I told him he should probably already have it. I mentioned it might be a scam and asked if he could send me the info by email, but he said no and then just hung up on me.

They rang me up about loft insulation we supposedly had done. As soon as I asked when it was completed, they just ended the call.
