Without a doubt, these are scammers. You should just block the number. I’ve only shared my phone number with one business in the past three years, so I’m guessing it’s SpaMedica or someone connected to them pulling this dodgy stunt.

Someone rang and said they were with the Housing Disrepair Scheme, but I had a feeling it was dodgy. I joked asking if they meant Scam rather than Scheme. They tried to talk me round, but I just ended the call and blocked the number straight away.

I got a call from someone saying it was about council or housing association homes and repairs that haven’t been done since covid. They were just reading off a script and didn’t let me get a word in. Once they figured out I actually own my home, they got rude and even started threatening me, using my address like it was some kinda warning. Honestly, best to just ignore these calls.

Got a call from someone saying they were Danny, part of the council’s housing repairs team. I told them I own my place, so they must have dialled the wrong number. Instead of backing off, they started getting all shouty. Total scam, for sure.

Some woman gave me a ring, claiming I was living in council housing. When I said I wasn’t, she accused me of lying. So I told her I thought she was running some kind of con, which really pissed her off. She said she was with a “law firm” and that a letter would be on its way, then just hung up when I pushed her for more details. I then phoned her back pretending to be from the “scam squad” at Scam, Egg & Chips Solicitors - she just called me a loser and cut me off. They’re not exactly clever, but it bugs me that they target people who might actually be in homes needing repairs.

I received a call from this number earlier today regarding some housing repairs. When I mentioned that I wasn’t a homeowner, they then probed further, asking if I was renting. I told them no, and they immediately inquired about private renting. I made it evident that I wasn’t keen on their pitch. It’s obvious this is a dodgy operation, fishing for vulnerable individuals. Truly, what a sorry state of affairs!

I received several calls that were abruptly disconnected, but eventually, a chap named "Alex" got through. His accent was quite pronounced, and he referred to me by my correct last name, which was a bit disconcerting. He then babbled something about social matters, but it was all rather unclear. When I expressed my confusion, he simply hung up on me.

This bloke rang up saying he was helping council and housing association tenants sort out problems like damp and mould. When I asked where he got my number from (funny enough, he had the wrong name for me too), he got really nasty and insisted he deserved my details. He spoke with an Indian accent and used that usual bullying tactic to scare people into handing over info. Honestly, it’s a total scam so don’t share anything with them. Just hang up and block the number straight away.

This number rings me around 5 times daily, and I've only answered twice. Each time, they claim they’re from a government Housing Repairs programme for council tenants, which I’m not. On the second call, I told them I thought it was a scam because almost 1000 people had flagged this number. The woman on the other end got really annoyed and snapped at me for suggesting that. I haven’t blocked them though, as I actually find it quite entertaining to mess with their calls.
