4 yearsThey rang me again but with the last two digits different this time, I didn't pick up either call. Thought I'd check here to find out if it's a scam or not.4 yearsThis chap was definitely a dodgy one. He rang my older dad multiple times, trying to sell him a medical alert device. He had the audacity to pretend he was William from some so-called healthcare service.William4 yearsAt around 5:50 in the evening, my phone rang and when I answered with a "hello," there was complete silence and then the caller just ended the call.4 yearssome bloke rang me up saying he was from the nhs and could offer me an alarm for emergencies like falling over if i was in trouble. he said it was worth £300 but would charge me £50 for three months. when i told him i couldnt pay that, he just ended the call straight away.NHS4 yearsThis number's been ringing me every day for the past three days, always around the same time. I can't seem to block it on my home phone. I never pick up since I don't recognise anyone from Southampton.Southampton4 yearsI picked up the phone but there was complete silence on the other end, no one said a word.4 yearsgot a call from some lady claiming to be from medical health services. she asked if I was Mrs so and so. I told her straight up no. then she wanted to talk to Mrs, i said she’s not here, plain honest answer. then she started questioning who I am, so I asked her the same question back. next thing she just hung up on me. quite rude really.4 yearsNo one picked up and they didn’t leave any voicemail.4 yearsJust got a call from William at medical health service again, but this time it was a different number, 02382578338. He rang about a week back too, trying to sell me one of those medical alarms you wear round your neck. Same guy, same pitch.William4 yearsThey kept ringing me up trying to get info about my dad's credit card. When I answered, I lost my temper and told them to stop bothering us and to get lost. So far, no more calls, fingers crossed I freaked them out enough.4 yearsdo yourself a favour and block this number, total scam alert! they were reading from a script about my supposedly non-existent bt internet. i just let it ring for a bit then hung up, only picked up to find out what rubbish they had to say. won’t be picking up any calls for a few days cos of this.4 yearsTotal rip off! The call was some automated thing, telling me to press 1 if I wanted off their list, or 2 to talk to a real person. Tried leaving a message but apparently their inbox is packed! Waste of time for sure.4 yearsI kept asking what he was after, but he just stuck to his spiel. Definitely a scam, no doubt about it.4 yearsIt wasn't a real person on the other end, just some kind of robot voice, so I hung up straight away.4 yearsThis number rings me almost every day, even though I've blocked it. Sometimes it shows up with a number that's just a bit different. When I answer, there's a recorded voice telling me to press one if I want to stop the calls - I just ignore that. Then it goes on asking for my personal info, which is a big no from me.Submit Your Own Report (023 8257 8338)
