About 5 minutes ago, I got a call from this number but it cut off right when my answering machine started. Definitely looked like a dodgy scam, so I’ve blocked it now.

I’m on the TPS list, but it doesn’t seem to make a difference with these calls! Just let it ring through to the voicemail and then ended up hanging up without picking up.

Absolutely annoying caller, best to steer clear.

Got a call from a bloke with an English accent today, going on about some new government law about estate management. He said I’d need to sell my home to cover care costs. Sounded dodgy to me, like a scam. Just ignored it and blocked the number straight away. Nothing new, really.

Got a call out of the blue today and the same thing happened yesterday too.

I was having a neck therapy session when my phone rang from a number I didn't know, so I just let it go to voicemail. Made me even more annoyed since I was trying to focus on my treatment.

Got a call from someone saying there are new government guidelines about having to sell your home if you move into a care home. He tried to sell me an insurance plan that supposedly covers those fees. Never heard anything official about this before, so I reckon it’s just a scam. The number was 02081598263.

Got a call earlier, some nonsense about Government grants that don’t actually exist - at least not for me since I don’t have any property. Pretty sure it was just another try to hunt for bank info, but I wasn’t about to hand anything over.

Got a call from this number not long ago. The guy spoke really clearly and sounded quite convincing. He said he was calling about helping homeowners keep their place if they needed to sell up to pay for a care home. He asked if I owned my home and which age group I was in. Then, out of nowhere, asked me to spell my last name - that struck me as odd. I told him “You’re calling me, so surely you’ve got my name already?” He agreed but said he needed it spelled so his colleague could get it right when they called later that day or next. I said, “Why not tell me how you’re spelling it first and I’ll say if it’s right?” Next thing, he just dropped the call. Bit weird if you ask me.

Absolute crooks, they should all be locked up!

As soon as I picked up, the person on the other end just suddenly ended the call.

Today, 21/02/24, at around 09:40, I got a call from 02081598263. As soon as I picked up, the person just hung up. Seems pretty sketchy, probably some kind of scam.

They claimed to be contacting every homeowner to inform us about some changes in government laws. Seriously, who’s got the time to ring up every single homeowner? And since when does the government actually give you a ring about updates like that?

Got a call from a bloke with a proper English accent talking about some new government regulations. I just ended the call straight away. Since I’m signed up on the TPS, they really shouldn’t be ringing me. Going to make sure to report this number to the TPS now.

This morning at about 10.46, I got a call from someone saying they were from Estates or something like that. When I asked them for their phone number, they just wouldn’t give it to me. The bloke said he’d try again, but when I mentioned the TPS register, he just ended the call straightaway.
