Got a call from someone claiming to be O2 trying to give me a discount on my phone bill. I told them I wasn’t interested and they just ended the call. I’ve blocked the number since then.

If you want to report BT scams, you can do it on their website at [#][#]bt[###]/consumer/edw/scams/. It's the right place to flag any dodgy calls or messages from them.

Got a call claiming to be the OpenReach tech team. When the lady said it was just a cold call, they dropped it straight away and ended the call. Definitely feels dodgy.

When I answered a call from an 020 number, the line immediately dropped out. After that, I just block all 020s without a second thought. This site really helps me figure out who’s calling. Just wish the nasty ones would get nabbed sometime!

Sure enough, I’m expecting a call from some lead caller later today. No surprises there.

This number keeps ringing me multiple times in a single day. I have caller ID and usually ignore dodgy calls, but I do peek at messages just incase - never got any from this one tho. Gonna block it for sure. This site is really handy, but I’m shocked at how many folks still pick up these scam calls.

Got another call from that number just yesterday! It was a bloke who spoke English a bit clearer than before. He was asking about my mum, who’s actually passed away. The moment I asked him "Who is this?" he just ended the call straight away.

Got a call from someone claiming to be Talk Talk, saying if I didn’t press 1, my internet would be disconnected. Sounds like a total scam to me, don’t fall for it!

My mum got a call from these lot, and she honestly thought it was proper. They said their name was Quality Calls and claimed to be some kind of call blocking company. She got tricked into believing it was real and ended up giving them her debit card info, which was daft and quite upsetting.

They keep ringing me at all sorts of hours. Finally caught the call once and it was just some automated voice telling me to email a Hotmail account to get off their list, but they never gave the full email address. Bit odd, really.

I received a most curious call where all I heard was some rather odd scratching sounds before they abruptly ended the conversation. I can't help but wonder if they were perhaps attending to that unwelcome itch on their rather unfortunate posterior. - caller: A.N.Idiot

I’m absolutely sick to death of receiving calls where nobody says a word before they just cut off! Number: 020 8568 6588. It's becoming a right nuisance!

The call just started with some odd scratching sounds before it suddenly ended. Pretty sure they're just using the phone to itch their bumpy behind or something.

Since the caller never said who they were, my call blocker didn’t catch it. After checking out the comments here, I decided to block this number.

Like someone else mentioned, this Alex Wilson character popped up again trying to scam me. It’s weird how loads of people from India or Pakistan just pick this name like it’s trendy or something. Honestly, these scammers are just crooks and you’re better off not answering at all.

Got a call from these dodgy scammers today, I played along for about 30 minutes trying to waste their time. In the end, they acted like I was the fool! Seriously though, never hand over any details. If you’ve got some free time, have a laugh and mess with them a bit.

A bloke called Jordan rang me up, asked how I was and claimed he was from Virgin Media, saying there were issues with my internet. Problem is, I don’t even have Virgin as my provider. I told him everything was fine on my end and then he went, “How do you know that?” I just ended the call there and then.
