5 monthsGot a call from someone claiming to be with MBO, saying they were working for The Pensions Regulator. Definitely a dodgy number, don’t trust it.MBOThe Pensions Regulator5 monthsThey kept ringing me quite a few times, so I just stopped picking up. Best to ignore them!5 monthsI was just trying to confirm the info to make sure everything was right.5 monthsI didn’t pick up since I didn’t recognise the number, had a couple of dodgy calls earlier today!5 monthsThis number is genuine, got a message from my housing association some time back telling me they might give me a ring from this phone in January. They tried phoning me today on both my mobile and landline, but I was in the garage so I didn’t answer either time.7 monthsGot a rubbish call earlier - I just ended it. It was some woman wanting details about where we get our roofing materials from.7 monthsSPAM - Just say you’ll ring them back. They usually freak out since you can’t actually return a call to a spam number. :P7 monthsHad a woman ring up asking to talk to someone who could answer questions about a survey on flat roofs and loft setups we supposedly did. Since our firm is all about scientific test gear and we've never done any flat roof or loft work at all, I'm pretty sure it was just some dodgy cold caller having a go.7 monthsGot a call from what seemed to be my housing association asking about a customer satisfaction survey. They actually used my full name, which was kinda surprising. Nothing weird or spammy, just standard questions about their service.8 monthsGot a call from someone claiming to be from my housing association. I had a couple of guests over, so I just politely said no thanks and didn’t bother chatting!8 monthsSomeone called claiming to be my landlord, and they even knew my name. They just wanted to check how happy I was with some services I use.8 monthsIsn't it against the law now for Irish VOIP providers to be using UK numbers when making scam calls? I was under the impression they banned that.UK8 monthsI’ve just had some work done on my house and then got a call about a housing survey. My phone blocked the number a couple of times, so it might not be dodgy after all.8 monthsNo doubt about it, total scam! I had a hunch so I called back just for a giggle, but couldn’t get through at all!8 monthsGot a call from a Scottish woman asking about a survey on the construction projects we do. Seems legit enough, but we usually don’t take part in these surveys.8 monthsI got calls from this number two times, on the 16th and 17th of October 2025, Thursday and Friday. Luckily, my phone automatically blocked it straight away.9 monthsThis number called me and a woman with an accent asked about my housing situation. I didn’t give her any details and warned her I’d report the number to the Greater Manchester Police’s scam unit - which I went ahead and did.Greater Manchester Police9 months02045389096 rang me on my mobile and showed up as a potential scam. Didn’t leave a message or anything. I’m already in touch with my housing association and honestly, they email me way too much anyway. It gets a bit much. Funny thing is, recently they did some kind of survey, going around the homes to check if anything can be improved. They’re visiting all the tenants, taking pictures and all. My tenancy inspection is due next week, so I really didn’t need the hassle of that right now. Like others have said, it might be something completely unrelated, who knows.9 monthsGot a call from someone with an Asian accent saying they were from the housing association. They asked if I could do a survey, but I told them I already did one a few months back! Then they just said they’d update my details anyway!10 monthsSomebody ringing me up about a survey, had no clue who it was, so I just told them bye!10 monthsI got a phone call from this number a little while ago, and a lady with an accent was on the line. She tried to speak to me directly, but I told her I wasn’t around. She mentioned she’d ring again sometime, but I’ve blocked the number now so we’ll see if she actually does. Fingers crossed she finds someone else to bother!11 monthsI got a call from some surveying firm called OMB, I think. The lady on the phone was Scottish and honestly, I could barely make out what she was saying. Really hard to follow.OMB12 monthsI got a call from that number but didn't pick up because it felt like a scam from the start.12 monthsI got a ring from a woman with a Scottish accent, said she was with OMB Research, doing a survey for Innovate UK. After a quick Google, looks like it’s legit - Innovate UK is some kind of government-linked organisation but operates independently. So, not a dodgy call, just them trying to gather opinions or whatever.OMB ResearchInnovate UK12 monthsTotal scammer!1 yearThe voice on the other end sounded robotic and a bit broken. I tried asking something back but the line just got cut off straight away. Definitely seemed like it was a machine or something.1 yearHad a really pleasant lady on the line, seemed quite polite. She said she was doing a survey with architects about the latest trends and was hoping I'd answer some questions for it.1 yearGot a call from someone saying they were from OMB, acting for the UK Government about some foreign currency matter. Honestly, the government wouldn’t ring up random small businesses about currency stuff - you’d go through your bank for that sort of thing! It’s baffling how these scammers even think this works. I’m sure the people actually making these calls aren’t the ones cashing in on it. There’s gotta be a more honest way to make a living than this nonsense.OMBUK1 yearFrom what i gathered, they dont appear to be offering any real government services at all.1 yearGot a call looking for the finance manager, they kept going on about some government scheme or whatever. I told them the senior manager wasn’t around today. They kept pushing, saying it was really urgent to talk to the finance manager and even asked who I'd want them to ask for next time. I just said if it was that urgent, surely they’d know who exactly to get in touch with already. They sounded fairly polite, but something felt off about the whole thing.1 yearGot a call from a woman speaking with a Scottish accent, asking for someone in Finance. She said it was about a government survey on exports. I said I'd have to get someone to ring her back but then mentioned I can't take calls right now. Seemed quite believable at first, but after reading other comments here, I reckon she was probably up to no good!1 yearWas busy at work so didn’t pick up, and since the call came from a London number I’d never seen before, I looked it up here to see what others said.London1 yearThis number phoned me two days in a row. When I answered, a woman with a strange mix of Irish and Asian accent claimed to be from a housing group conducting a survey. She asked for personal details, but I told her I wouldn’t give out that info over the phone for safety. That’s when she just cut off the call! Since they already knew my postcode, it’s clear some of my data got leaked to these fraudsters somehow. Total scam.1 yearI've gotten a few calls from this number already, and the bloke on the line said he was "Nick from the Pensions Regulator" this time. But before that, they'd been calling me pretending to be from some completely different firm.1 yearThey tried my mobile first but when I didn’t answer, they rang the house phone straight away. It was some Asian lady saying she was doing a survey connected to ‘your housing association’. I asked what company she was with and she just muttered some nonsense I couldn’t catch. Then when I asked where she was calling from, she kinda lost interest and it was painfully clear this was a scam. Told her I didn’t trust her and ended the call. Blocked the number so she can’t bother me again.1 yearGot a call that showed up looking like spam, ignored it a few times, but finally picked up after the sixth ring in one day. The person said they were from my housing association. When I said I wasn’t convinced, the woman with an accent, which sounded Asian, just ended the call straight away! Told myself “nope” and blocked the number.1 yearThey rang me about six times in just five minutes, so I had to block the number.1 yearI got two calls back to back, first from a mobile number 07360 496781 then from a landline 020 4538 9096. They claimed to be from Age UK and wanted to talk about a survey on Winter fuel payments and difficulties people might be facing. They were pushing for a 15 minute questionnaire or something like that. I ended up recommending they look into issues about head and #### cavities instead.Age UK1 yearI saw the number come up as 'nuisance?' on my screen, so I just let it ring out.2 yearsGot two calls back to back from this number, but when I tried ringing them back, it just wouldn’t ring at all. Really weird behaviour! Looks like a total scam to me… watch out!2 yearsI was tied up at the time, so luckily they just hung up.2 yearsGot a call from a lady speaking with an Indian accent saying she was conducting a housing survey for my local council. Seems like a total scam to me. I just ended the call and tried ringing the number back, but it wouldn’t connect. Honestly, I’m fed up with these endless scam calls popping up all day long. I really hope the Government steps in soon because this has gone way beyond acceptable everywhere.2 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were from my housing association and doing a quick survey. After just two questions, they started asking for my personal details which felt off. I told them where they could put their survey in no uncertain terms!2 yearsCreeps, honestly!!!2 yearsGot a call from some random number claiming they’re a big company that cleans toilets, saying none are too filthy for them. Honestly, I couldn’t be bothered with their toilet cleaning spiel, especially this late at night.2 yearsI got a call from some creep who started asking me weird questions about my underwear, honestly just loads of creeps out there.2 yearsThey kept pushing me about some property deals even after I told them I wasn't interested. Pretty sure it's just a scam, wouldn't take no for an answer.2 yearsI thought I blocked this number but it keeps ringing me over and over, so annoying! 🤦♀️🤦♀️2 yearsGot loads of calls from different ones, bit of a housing SCAM if you ask me.2 yearsBeen hit by this scam twice already this month. Just brushed it off both times…2 yearsI got a call from this number but I didn’t pick up, just had a feeling it was one of those dodgy scam calls.2 yearsGot a call about a housing survey out of the blue, never gave my number to them. Looks like they’ve shared my details after some repairs were done. This was down here in the South West.South West2 yearsI gave the number 020455389096 a rating of dodgy after seeing the reviews. Don’t know this number at all. I usually get only sketchy calls, so I’m suspicious of any random number ringing me. Then, just moments after, I got a call from 08000803247, which apparently is linked to bank scams. I ignored that one too. Bit weird if these two calls were somehow linked, right?2 yearsGot a call from a number flagged as spam, but they didn’t leave any voicemail.2 yearsI got a call from someone who said it might be a housing association survey, but she wouldn’t say which company she was with. She asked if I’d be okay to answer some questions about the services I’d used, but when I said I wasn’t really up for it, she just cut me off straight away.2 yearsI received a call supposedly from my local council regarding some work around my home, but I couldn't help but chuckle. The voice on the other end seemed rather peculiar, and honestly, it didn’t sound like they were from the UK at all! Just a rather odd encounter, if I’m honest.UK2 yearsThey didn’t say a word and just ended the call eventually, seems like a scam to me.2 yearsI just saw a missed call from this number on my phone. It’s obviously dodgy so I’m going to block it and flag it as unsafe. Doesn’t seem trustworthy at all.2 yearsI didn’t pick up and they didn’t leave any voicemail, plus it was a blocked caller ID.2 yearsDefinitely a scam, be careful!2 yearsI just ignored the call and there was no voicemail or anything. Pretty sure it’s just another annoying scam, so I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number.2 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be doing research for a university. Took a bit of digging on my part to find out it was OMB they were representing. I told them we weren’t interested. They spoke nicely, but honestly just another annoying call.OMB2 yearsLike the comment from a week back, this was totally the same situation for me.2 yearsThey said it was a survey for the housing association, but didn’t sit right with me. I just said I was too busy and ended the call.2 yearsI think this might be a scam call. Some dodgy number tried ringing me and it felt a bit off. Definitely seems like a fraud alert to me.2 yearsGot a call from some random number I didn’t recognise, didn’t bother picking up since I’m on the TPS and they clearly didn’t check that. Annoying as heck.Telephone Preference Service2 yearsTotal scammer, had to block the number right away.2 yearsGot a call from this number 0204 5389 096, and it was a cheerful woman with a Scottish accent. She started off by saying she was ringing from the Government. When I asked if she meant the Government itself or some sort of agency, she quickly changed it to agency. She wanted to talk to our CFO, so I requested the agency's website to check it out, but she couldn’t give me one. From the start, I smelt a rat because we constantly get calls claiming to be from the Government or Treasury, and our company has no dealings with either! Definitely a scam… not sure what their angle is though!Government2 yearsGot a call from Vegetarian for Life doing a survey. They asked some stuff about vegan and vegetarian options in our care home. Nothing too personal or awkward to answer. Seems like it could be a genuine charity?Vegetarian for Life2 yearsI didn't pick up but they never left a message, pretty clear it's a scam.2 yearsSome lady rang me saying she had questions from my landlord. I was a bit iffy about it and didn’t want to answer anything. She ended up just hanging up on me, which was pretty rude. Later, I spoke to my landlord and they confirmed no one from their side had called me, so it was definitely a scam.2 yearsGot a call from some woman claiming to be from Arc Vision about 3D rendering or some sort of survey, sounded like government stuff or something.Arc Vision 3D2 yearsSilent call probably call centre.2 yearsReceived a call with no one on the line; they just cut off after a brief moment.2 yearsIt seems I've received a call where there was no one on the other end - likely from a call centre.2 yearsGot a call from a guy claiming to be from Innovate UK, said he wanted to chat with someone in charge about some government research. I told him no one was free, but he kept trying to get a name out of me. The number looked odd, and he couldn’t really prove who he was, similar to what others have said.Innovate UK2 yearsGot a call claiming they were from "Innovate UK," some government research or somethin', but they wouldn’t answer any of my questions properly. Couldn't confirm if it was legit, so I just blocked the number.UK2 yearsI received an unexpected call, probing me about my heating system controls. Quite intrusive, if you ask me!2 yearsThey claimed to be from the CSA doing a survey, but I got a weird vibe.
