Got a call from someone pretending to be Sky about my internet. They asked me to check my router and tell them how many lights were showing. But the moment I started asking them stuff, they just cut me off. Definitely sounded dodgy to me.

I got a call from a man most of the time, but this time it was a woman ringing about boiler cover.

Once more, another scam call!

Some bloke called offering to cut down my boiler insurance costs, but it wasn’t with the firm I’m with. Then he just hung up on me.

I rang up this 92 year old lady with dementia, cant really say what was talked about, but when I went to see her afterwards she was trembling all over and seemed really shook up about the phone call.

I told him to buzz off, and he started going on about shoving his w**ly where the sun doesn’t shine to get me to be quiet!

Unknown caller, didn’t pick up, and they left no voicemail.

I got a call from some health company, they said they already had my details but needed to double check my name, which I never gave them. They claimed I qualified for a medical alarm necklace but kept pushing for my date of birth. When I asked why they were ringing me since I'm registered with the Telephone Preference Service, they just snapped back saying I had no right to call them scammers. Then they just ended the call!

Got a call from a bloke trying to sell me a pendant. I told him if it was legit, he should be able to give me my National Insurance number. He said they didn't have that info, so it was obviously dodgy. This is the second or third time we’ve had a call like this. I just ended the call.

Uttering the usual medical pendant spiel again... blah, blah, blah. I just hung up the phone. Let’s see when they call next!

With all these folks arriving from the sea, it honestly feels like our tiny island is gonna get overwhelmed and just sink under it all, just like the rest of the places.

Phone rang on my landline at 8:22 in the morning, I answered with a quick 'hello' twice but they just cut the call. So frustrating.

Got a call from another 'suspect Spam' number again, and as usual, no message left on my voicemail. What’s the point?

I got a call from some private healthcare outfit saying they’d be sending me a pendant alarm to wear in case I fell or had an emergency; apparently, if I pressed it, their emergency team would come straight away. The woman on the phone said the alarm itself was free, but she never mentioned any fees for the emergency service when it’s actually used. I told her I wasn’t interested, asked them not to send it, and ended the call. This is the second time they’ve called me - the first number was blocked so clearly they’re switching up numbers. Feels like a dodgy scam to me.

Got a call from 02380170848 earlier, some woman with an Asian accent said I’d be getting a neck alarm in case I fell. I told her I didn’t want it and she started using some pretty rude language. I told her off and to take her stupid alarm and shove it. Seems like a total scam if you ask me.

So this number, 02380170848, keeps ringing me up about boilers which is so frustrating since we just got a new one installed recently! They seem to call around three or four times every year just to try the same trick. The moment they bring up anything about a boiler, I call them out straight away for being dodgy and then hang up. Proper nuisance!

Got a call from someone with an Asian accent offering a discount on boiler service. They wanted to know if I was born before or after 1930, which seemed odd. I wasn’t sure what was going on, so I just hung up.

Beware of "Harry" - the bloke from Asia trying to sell dodgy boiler repairs!

I received a phone call the other day from someone claiming to represent a medical firm. They were trying to sell me an emergency alarm pendant for £39.99 a month. When I mentioned that I was just 23 years old, the chap on the line immediately inquired if there were any older folks living with me. That struck me as a bit off, so I decided to end the conversation right there.

Got a call from some scammy lot trying to sell me a medical alarm thingy that alerts folks if I’m in trouble. Since I’m on the TPS, I shouldn’t even be getting sales calls like this.
