Got a call from someone saying they were from Universal Credit, asking for a quick chat. They already knew my name and asked me to verify my address. When I queried how they got my number, they just hung up on me.

A bloke with some foreign twang called up, wanting me to answer his questions. I ended up giving him my own bit of advice, of course.

This call had this really strong Asian accent, and the person goes, “I’m Kevin.” I didn’t say much after that and just hung up. Later, I asked my wife if she was the “Mr.” they mentioned or something. Quite weird!

I got a call saying it was about some benefits stuff. I’m on the Do Not Call list and registered with TPS, plus I’m not even getting any benefits! How did they even find my number? Definitely a scam. Don’t pick up if you get a call like that.

as soon as the answerphone picked up, they just hung up straight away.

Got a call from 02086891493, but they ended it as soon as I picked up. Was about to give them a right hassle. Like many, I’m on the TPS list and my number’s ex-directory. Definitely some dodgy business. Don’t give them the satisfaction!

Same as always, no voicemail left, just hangs up right when the answer machine starts.

He was really hard to make out, but I think he said something like ‘your benefits’ or maybe ‘you benefits’ like another person mentioned. He tried to say he had some questions for me. I told him I don’t do unexpected calls and honestly couldn’t catch what he was saying, then just ended the call.

I've had this number ring my phone a few times, but every time I answer, they just hang up straight away.

They hung up straight away when I asked who it was, just after they’d questioned if I was my mum.

Got a call from 02086891493, sounded like someone from a mall. When I asked which one exactly, she hesitated but said it was somewhere in central London. She asked for me by my full name and claimed I’d won a £30 food hamper. I told her I live about 300 miles away and there was no way I could pick it up, then ended the call quickly. Didn’t hear from her again, so no clue what the real purpose of the call was.

Got a call from someone claiming to be from your benefits, they wanted me to answer some questions. I told them I wasn’t comfortable doing that over the phone, and then they just hung up on me.

This number, 02086891493, rang me up saying I wouldn’t get any more annoying calls. I told the bloke he had no business ringing as I’m signed up with the TPS. He insisted he was allowed to call and threatened to keep ringing daily. I didn’t say a word after that, but he kept going on and on, so in the end, I had to just hang up.

this number just rang me up and actually knew my full name, where i lived and even my postcode. when i told them i'd moved 3 years ago, they hung up straight away. the number is 02086891493.

Got a ring from 02086891493 saying I wouldn't get any more annoying calls on my landline. Trouble is, I'm already signed up with the TPS, so that promise clearly isn’t holding up. Plus, my number is ex-directory, so any calls I get without my say-so are probably breaking the rules. These calls are a proper pain, and I don’t hold back on letting them know exactly what I think of them when they come through!
