Got a call around 11 this morning from someone asking for the homeowner about solar panels. I was suspicious straight away since the last time they called it was something about driveways. Told them I’m renting a flat and then they just hung up on me.

Got a call around 9:30 in the morning, but I wasn’t able to get to the phone quick enough so it went to voicemail. I caught a bit of a voice, like they were mid-chat, saying something like "...the homeowner..." then the line just cut off like someone hung up. Feels like it could be one of those scam calls to me.

Got a call from this number at about 3.45 but I didn’t pick up. It rang around six times before I stopped. Since I didn’t know who it was, I looked it up here. I keep my number ex-directory anyhow.

Got a call around half past nine in the morning, some bloke asking for the property owner. I couldn’t really make out what he was saying, but then he said something about an estate, and before I knew it, he just hung up.

Got a call from a bloke named Sam who was shouting like I couldn’t hear him, talking about some estate thing after death. He mentioned it was on the news or something. Seemed like a total scam to me, so I just hung up straight away.

Got a call around 6 in the evening. I'm ex-directory so they really shouldn't have my number. When my answering machine kicked in, they hung up straight away. Definitely a scam call.

Had a call around lunchtime yesterday, and when I picked up, the voicemail said something about a security check, but before I could even react, they just ended the call straight away.

They kept ringing saying they were from some 'Energy Expert' and needed to talk to our director about renewing an energy contract. Total rubbish obviously. When I told them to just send an email to the address they should already know, they got proper stroppy. Every day they call from a number in the same range, sometimes pretending to be an energy firm, other times a bank or some other nonsense. Really annoying!

I picked up the phone and a bloke with an African-sounding accent asked if he could just ask me three quick questions. He tried to verify my name and address, but he was using an address I moved out of over three years ago. I didn’t stick around to listen after that and hung up straight away. I keep blocking these kinds of numbers, yet they keep coming back with different ones, it’s never-ending.

Some lady rang claiming to be from Consumer Research. She started by asking if I lived at some place I'd never heard of. When I said no, she then tried to get my postcode out of me. I told her she had the wrong number. She just hung up on me without saying sorry. Blocked her straight away.

It took me a moment to pick up since I was juggling a few things, and when I finally said ‘hello’, there was nothing but silence before the line just went dead! Definitely a bothersome call, maybe even a bit harassing.

We’ve got our number registered with TPS, so it’s frustrating when a scammer still rings us up. As soon as our answerphone kicked in, they just hung up. Really not on!

First, the caller stayed quiet then suddenly asked if I was the owner of the house. Right after I answered, they just hung up. How on earth do these scammers even manage to get hold of our phone numbers? I already pay a lot to my phone company hoping they’d block these nuisance calls automatically. Total scam!

Got a call from some company claiming they’re doing a piece for a magazine about resin driveways. They wanted to know if I still had a driveway and how old it was. I just told them it’s been here as long as the house and then ended the call. Felt like a bit of a dodgy driveway scam to me.

I picked up a call just now, but it cut off straight away as I answered. No one was on the line, so I'm guessing it’s one of those dodgy scam operations.

Got a call from a person saying they were from The Driveway Centre. They started going on about their sales pitch but I cut them off pretty quick. I wanted to know how they got my phone number and if they usually ring numbers listed on the TPS register. After that, the caller didn't say much and just ended the call.

Had a dodgy call come through that was definitely spoofed, coming from abroad but pretending to be local. Absolute scammer! It’s about time OFCOM made Virgin, BT, and the other landline providers block all these fake UK numbers automatically. This nonsense has to stop.

I received an unsolicited call, where they were keen to discuss renewing my driving licence. It seemed like they were after individuals to showcase in what I presume are advertisements. I’ve a strong hunch they intended to lure me in with some sort of ‘exclusive deal’ for their dubious service. They claimed to have sourced my number from the so-called ‘Renewable Energy Database’-a term that means absolutely nothing to me. To clarify, I don't even have renewable energy installed! I suspect this is nothing more than a scam. I've gone ahead and reported them.

We usually just ignore calls if the number ain't saved in our phone book, thinking they might be dodgy. Never bother with answering or anything like that. No voicemail either.

Earlier this year, I got a call from a number that seemed like it was from Southampton, and it turned out to be some sort of 'winning voucher' scam from a company. Sounds like a similar one to what others are reporting.

It felt like I was speaking to some sort of automated voice because when I answered back, there was no reply and they just kept going over the same thing. They claimed that "the UK government, via local councils, is making folks sell their houses to cover care costs." Apparently, they said this was announced on the telly news earlier today.
