This number, 02838868380, has rung me up a couple of times on my Bedfordshire mobile. Seems like it could be some sort of scam call.

I've received multiple phone calls over the past few days, and it's starting to feel like I'm being pestered.

I just picked up my phone and nobody was on the other end, no sound at all. This same number also tried calling me the day before, but I couldn't get through to anyone then either.

Got a call from some bloke with an accent from a busy call centre claiming my fridge warranty was running out soon, which it definitely isn’t. I just acted like I couldn’t hear a word he was saying and after a while he gave up and ended the call. Total scam.

Avoid this number 02838868380, it's just one example of many spoofed numbers used by Asian scammers. Best to block it straight away.

For sure some dodgy characters here just trying to con folks outta their cash. Don’t fall for this United Benefits washing machine warranty nonsense - it’s likely just a ploy to nick all your money and fund who knows what. Honestly, the GCHQ needs to find these lot and put them behind bars for good.

Received another call today. The caller seemed unfamiliar and requested part of my name, which made it obvious they weren’t aware of who they were trying to reach. I informed them that the individual in question doesn’t reside here and promptly ended the conversation.

I had quite the unpleasant experience with a woman on the phone. She spoke with a strong Asian accent and insisted she was representing "United Benefits." Just another unwelcome call I've had to block!

Got calls from this number thrice today - never left a voicemail. Picked up on the third ring and an Asian guy asked if I was (my name) from (my address). He said he wasn’t trying to sell anything but was doing some kind of home survey. He asked some simple questions first, then wanted to know what brand my washing machine was and if I owned the place with a mortgage. Got a weird vibe so I hung up straight away. Fingers crossed I cut off the chat before he could gather too much info.

Got a call from 02838868380 twice, both times just silence before they ended it right away. Definitely sounds like a scam to me.

Earlier today, I got a call from a man with an Asian accent who said the warranty on my washing machine was running out soon. I said I didn’t have any warranty, and then he tried to sell me one for £95. I told him I’m just a struggling pensioner and can't really spare that kind of money. After that, he said have a nice day and ended the call. Definitely seemed like a scam, so I’m going to block the number now.

Got a call from an Asian woman claiming to be from ‘United Benefits,’ asking for my personal details. I could hear background noise like a call centre. As soon as I hesitated, she just ended the call. Watch out, these lot are definitely scammers trying to steal from you.

The call showed up from Northern Ireland, which I’m not familiar with at all, so I chose not to pick up. After reading through what others have said about this number being suspicious, I’m definitely going to put it on my block list.

Got two calls from this number within just 15 minutes. The first time I picked up, I could hear a guy's voice for a second before they cut off. The second call, there was dead silence on the line. Seems like one of those scammy calls trying to find live numbers, if you ask me.

I've received numerous calls from this number, and after checking via 1471, it seems they never leave a message. On one occasion, I did pick up the phone and heard a woman speaking in an Asian accent. She asked if she was speaking to me by name and began with the standard chit-chat about how I was doing. However, when I pressed her on the purpose of her call, she abruptly hung up. Quite odd, really!

I've received three calls from this number over the past week. Not being familiar with it, I chose not to pick up. Strangely, they haven't bothered to leave a voicemail. I've decided to block the number altogether.

It all kicked off a couple of days back-I've ended up blocking the number since they never bothered to leave a voice message. I strictly answer calls from numbers I recognise. If an unknown number keeps ringing and doesn’t leave a message, it gets added to my block list without a second thought.

This afternoon I got three calls on my landline from this same number, but no message or anything. I have no clue who it might be. Just checked it out on this site and since I don't know anyone in Portadown, I’ve gone and blocked it now.
