I got called like 7 times all in one day, proper annoying. No clue who it was, but definitely seemed like some dodgy scam to me.

Got a call from this number earlier, but no answer when I picked up. I’ve had calls from Benefit before, just never through this phone. Looks like I’ve gotta add it to my blocked list. Isn’t there a way to stop these calls? Feels not only risky but also like a real breach of privacy.

Got a call from someone claiming to be Benefits UK, but they kept ringing from lots of different numbers. Proper annoying, so I've gone and blocked them now.

I got a call from a woman - think her name was Elaine? - saying she was with some ‘Phone verification service’. She somehow already had my name and address, even though I hadn’t given them out. Just to be polite, I told her yes, that was definitely a phone I was chatting to her on. It seemed to throw her off a bit, but I stuck with it and insisted it was a phone alright. I honestly have no clue what info she was after in the first place.

Blimey, this phone rang from this same number like six times today! I usually don’t pick up if I don’t know who it is, but honestly, it’s driving me mad. Seeing some of the stories here, I’m chuffed I gave it a miss. Really hope they just stop bothering everyone soon!

On 11th March 2019, I got calls from 02088 439355 at around 12:35 and then again at 3:03 in the afternoon. I didn’t pick up, but my wife tried to find out who it was, only for them to hang up both times. After seeing all the feedback here, I’m relieved we didn't engage with them more. Figured I’d leave my experience here too - the more reports, the better chance something gets done about it by the right people.

So far today, I've let nine calls from them go straight to voicemail. They’re so damn stubborn! Honestly, I just wish they’d leave me alone!!!

I usually just let the voicemail pick up if it’s a number I don’t recognise. Today, I got a call from someone with an African accent who just said “hello” a couple of times before suddenly ending the call.

This number has rung me a bunch of times in the past week. I usually let it go to voicemail first to check if the caller leaves a message or if I know the voice or name. From what I can tell, it’s a complete waste of their effort since they hang up right when the answering machine picks up.

Got a call around 10:51 but they didn’t leave a voicemail. I’m pretty sure I’m paying Virgin to block these annoying calls, yet I still end up getting at least three or four every day.

Got a call just before half past nine this morning. I picked up but stayed quiet and they ended the call straight away. I've blocked this number now, but lately I’m getting loads of calls like this. As soon as I block one, they begin calling from hidden or overseas numbers, which I can’t block. It’s really annoying!

Got a random ring from some bloke with a South Asian accent who said his name was ‘Peter’ and he was ringing from ‘You Benefit’. He said he just needed me to answer a few quick home-related questions that’d only take a minute or so - all the usual rubbish. Looks like another one of those spam calls from a South Asian call centre, always using fake company names and spoofed UK numbers. Just ignore it, don’t share anything personal, and make sure you block the number straight away.
