3 yearsGot a call from 02838884095 on 16/02/23 but they didn’t leave any message. I just let it ring off, probably one of those scam calls.3 yearsGot a missed call from this number and when I rang back, some Asian lady answered but sounded totally lost. She had no idea what to say, like she wasn’t following any script. When I told her I was calling back, she just didn’t get it at all. Seems like a total scam and honestly run by pretty clueless folks!3 yearsI usually don’t pick up landline numbers because most of the time it ends up being some sort of scam.3 yearsShe called about some medical alert thing you wear round your neck, claiming if there was an emergency, ambulance or police would rush over. I told her calling them myself would be just as fast. I said it sounded like a scam and she got all huffy, calling me horrible. Then I asked if she earned commission from sales. She snapped back saying I obviously didn’t want one, to which I replied no but I wasn’t bothered wasting her time since she rang me first. She left a couple of messages too. I told her she’d wasted my time and asked the price - £39.99. Then she just hung up on me.3 yearsThey tried to sell me some sort of emergency button, but I politely declined, stating it wasn’t necessary for me. After that, they just hung up on me.3 yearsI've attempted to ring this number multiple times, and honestly, I would really appreciate it if it could be blocked. It’s becoming quite a nuisance!3 yearsDidn't even bother to leave a message. Blocked straight away.3 yearsLooks like a scam about some medical equipment.3 yearsGot a call from a lady with an accent I didn’t quite catch. When I asked where she was calling from, it kinda sounded like she said "Mars". I asked again to be sure, and yep, she repeated Mars. After that I just said goodbye and hung up. She was trying to sell some emergency thing you wear around your neck or something.Mars3 yearsNo message received, so I just blocked the number.3 years02838884095 - was quiet at the start then just said hello. I've already changed my number. That’s scam number three for me this morning!3 yearsI just got a call where the person said "House Improvements" and ended the call right away. Blocked their number straight away.3 yearsGot a call saying i was eligible for a medical alert device to wear on my wrist or round my neck that can send an alarm. Told them ive no need for it and wouldnt want one anyway. They just ended the call. Total cold call spam. TPS clearly doesnt work.The Telephone Preference Service3 yearsPure scammers out there, I tell you.3 yearsHonestly, some of the comments here are just ridiculous. This is a genuine company that makes medical bands, nothing fake about it.3 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Indian accent, asking about who lives at my place and other stuff. After a while, she asked for my date of birth. When I questioned why she needed that for sending some sort of Medical Medallion, she said she’d send a letter instead and then just hung up on me. Definitely a new scam!3 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Indian accent claiming her name was Mary, saying she was calling on behalf of Health Care Services. She said my lifeline device needed replacing because it was outdated and wanted to charge me £49.99 for a new one. She asked for my DOB and if I had power of attorney or managed my own bank stuff. I called her out as a scammer, we went back and forth for a bit, then she randomly told me the devil’s my dad and hung up. Well, that was unexpected!MaryHealth Care Services3 yearsReceived a call on my home phone earlier, but I wasn't available to pick up, and they chose not to leave any voicemail. I'm inclined to think it was likely a scam.3 yearsMy elderly mum got a call from this number earlier, and it really left her a bit muddled and uneasy, they are ####3 yearsI didnt even bother picking up, seemed like one of those robotic call centre numbers. Wouldnt put my faith in it at all.3 yearsI got a call early, before 9 in the morning, and figured it was probably a scam, so I ignored it.3 yearsGot a call from some woman with a strong Indian accent saying she was Susan from some medical thing. Total scam, obviously.Susan3 yearsNo need to fret, we’re gonna send out double the amount. Honestly, we really appreciate the 4-star hotels you sort us out with. Pretty soon, we’ll have your card info in hand, plus your wife’s mamuritum ready for use in our harem. There’s no way anyone’s gonna stand in our way.3 yearsGot a call from someone with an Indian accent, sounded like a total scam to me. Definitely dodgy and not to trust.3 yearsI saw the number but didn’t pick up since it wasn’t familiar.3 yearsNo words, just silence on the other end.3 yearsI got called by a really cheeky young woman who kept pushing me to hand the phone over to my husband. When I told her she was trying to sell some kind of gadgets we didn’t want, she actually went on to say I sounded like I knew it all already. Honestly, it felt like a new sneaky ploy from these scam callers, and it was way more annoying than the usual stuff.3 yearsGot a dodgy call, definitely a scam.3 yearsI got a call from 02838884095, some bloke called Martin. He said they’re distributing these medical alert bracelets to folks in our area since COVID’s still about. He wanted me to verify my birthday, and I was just about to, but then I thought, hold on a sec, how do I know this is legit? So I told him I wouldn’t give it, and he just dropped the call. Seems like a total scam to me.Martin3 yearsSome lady named Ashley rang me up trying to sell an alert necklace and bracelet. I told her I already have those, then just ended the call. Definitely seemed like a scam to me.Ashley3 yearsGot a call from some overseas caller pretending to be Microsoft. I was about to tell them off but just hung up and blocked the number afterwards. Problem is, they just ring back using a new number each time.Microsoft3 yearsHad a call from a lady claiming she was trying to reach my elderly, disabled dad. When I asked her to identify herself, she just dropped the call. Really fishy behaviour if you ask me. Anyone genuine would surely say who they are, right? It’s awful that these types go after vulnerable folk like the old and disabled. No clue how they even got hold of his details, as we’re not listed in any directory. Makes me wonder how these scammers manage to find people’s info so easily.3 yearsHonestly, I doubt these things actually do anything.3 yearsSomebody rang me up saying I’d receive a device to wear around my neck that I could press if I had a fall!3 yearsThese so-called emergency alert bracelets are a joke. If anyone expects those morons to actually show up when there's a crisis, they’re seriously mistaken. People’s lives could be at risk because of this rubbish.3 yearsGot a call from a lady with a foreign accent asking if I was my missus, then she just dropped the call.3 yearsBeware of those medical emergency pendants, turns out they’re a total scam. Tried to get one for my mum and it was just a rip-off, nothing like what they promised.

Proper rude about it too.3 yearsLooks like it’s another one of those scams, unfortunately.3 yearsGot a call from a bloke who said his name was Paul, though it sounded fishy. He was talking about some dodgy medical stuff. I told him I was tied up and ended the call quickly.Paul3 yearsGot a call from this Ellie about some ‘medical help services’ pushing an ‘SOS pendant’ on me... I just ended the call straight away.Ellie3 yearsI let it ring a couple of times before finally answering, just sat there listening for a bit then said "hello". Nobody said anything and then they hung up. Guess they found someone easier to bother.3 yearsSome woman rang asking for an Andrew Wilson. I told her I wasn’t that person and had no clue who he was, then she just ended the call. No idea what she was after, but sounds like the usual scams mentioned here. Definitely dodgy.Andrew Wilson3 yearsGot woken up twice this morning by 02838884095, once at 8:30 and again at 8:55. Tried to call back but there was no answer, just dead silence and clicking noises. Proper annoying, honestly.3 yearsI got a call from this number, but when I answered, there was silence on the other end before they just cut off. It’s quite unsettling, especially given the hour. I've had my fair share of distressing calls in the past.3 yearsGot a ring around 8:30 this morning, picked up and all I heard was dead silence before they just hung up on me.3 yearsGot a call where they said they'd send me a button to use in emergencies.

Total waste of time really.3 yearsI tried calling this number using 141 before it from another phone, but I just got a message saying the number isn’t valid.3 yearsSo, I got calls right early in the morning, like when it’s still dark outside. I pick up and wait, but there’s just silence on the other end. This has gone down twice just this past week. It’s pretty weird really.3 yearsLoads of companies promise they won't share our contact info but end up selling it anyway. I've learned my lesson now: never hand over your details to these agencies unless it's completely necessary.3 yearsPicked up the phone and they just hung up straight away. Can't seem to block the number though since it’s coming from a landline.3 yearsMy wife got a call from a woman who claimed she was eligible for an emergency alert button because of her age. But when my wife asked for her name, the woman just ended the call straight away.3 yearsThey called and wanted to speak to my mum. I told them she wasn’t available, and then they just ended the call. Feels like they’re targeting elderly folks who might be easy to fool!3 yearsI saw the number 1471 and thought it looked a bit familar, so I called back. Some guy named Gary answered, speaking with a strong West Indian accent, sounded a bit rattled as well. I just ended the call after that!Gary3 yearsGot a call this morning at 10.28 from someone claiming to be with medical services, saying I qualified for a sos device. I tried asking a few questions, but the moment I did, they just ended the call.Medical Services3 yearsI received a rather peculiar call regarding a personal alarm service that’s supposedly linked to phone calls and such. A lady on the other end seemed to have my information, but she was adamant that I provide my date of birth to confirm that I qualified for whatever it was they were offering. I wasn’t keen on sharing that and pressed her about where they had gotten my details from. To my surprise, she abruptly hung up!3 yearsReceived a call claiming I was eligible for a device in case of a fall or fire. They had my name and address but then pressed me for my date of birth. I declined and inquired about how they got my information, which seemed to irritate her, leading to an abrupt end to the conversation. Just another scam, if you ask me!3 yearsThis morning around 9, I got a ring from a lady claiming I qualified for some kind of emergency device for calls and fire alerts. She kept saying my name and where I live but seemed to get fed up when I didn’t want to share my birthday. Definitely felt like a dodgy scam!3 yearsGot a call from someone saying I’m paying £350 a year for boiler cover, but he could lower it to £250. Thing is, I don’t even have any contract for boiler cover with anyone. Then he asked for my bank info, saying he wanted to verify it against their records. Felt really fishy to me.3 yearsNo clue who that was, didn’t leave any message or anything!3 yearsGot a call from this number first thing at 8am today. I’ve never had anything to do with Marine Consultancy Services, so I’m really puzzled as to why they would be phoning me.Marine Consultancy ServiceSubmit Your Own Report (028 3888 4095)
