Reports on phone number 02843780098
3 monthsSomebody said they were from “home management” and started asking if there were any issues around the house.2 yearsI missed the call but when I checked the number, it turned out to be some sort of health-related scam. I usually just ignore calls from numbers I don’t know.2 yearsAnswered but no message on the voicemail.2 yearsWe didn’t pick up the phone and they didn’t leave any voicemail. When I checked the number afterwards, it seemed like one of those medical scam calls.2 yearsI just got scammed, so I went ahead and blocked the number straight away!2 yearsAt around 9:10 this morning, I got a call from this number but they just cut off straight away.2 yearsI've had a few calls this week from someone called "Sam" who keeps asking about my doors and windows. Always sounds exactly the same like he's reading from a script, makes me think it's some kind of automated call.Sam2 yearsI got a call from 02843 780098 and it was this white guy who kept pestering me about the age of my windows and doors. He wouldn’t let me get a word in edgeways, just kept cutting me off. Really dodgy sounding, no way I’d trust him. Honestly, I hung up 'cos he was being so rude. Definitely felt like a scam call.2 yearsThey kept going "um, um, um" over and over again, it was so annoying!2 yearsReceived a call from this number yesterday but chose not to answer. It seemed like yet another clueless individual who just doesn't seem to get the hint.2 yearsOn Friday 26th April around 09:35, got a call from a bloke with an English accent who insisted I was over 70 and offered me some Medical Alert pendant. I told him I wasn’t even 70 yet and actually have a different pendant already. He just carried on like I hadn’t said a word. I ended up hanging up.2 yearsReceived a call from someone claiming to be a 'local health official', saying I was 'vulnerable' and should get a medical alert pendant. I’m signed up with the TPS, so quite suspicious about this.2 yearsSome bloke rang up saying he was a health worker from nearby. He said he knew about my health problems and brought up a call pendant. I told him we’re on the TPS list and then I just ended the call.2 yearsThey called but never said anything on the voicemail.2 yearsI keep receiving calls from this landline number around nine or ten in the evening, and the line remains quiet. It’s rather infuriating, if I’m honest!2 yearsA chap rang me, asserting he was a 'local health professional.' He seemed to think he knew all about my 'health concerns,' which I can assure you, I do not have. He brought up some sort of medical alert pendant. I informed him we’re registered with the Telephone Preference Service and promptly ended the call.Telephone Preference Service2 yearsGot a call, I answered but then the person just hung up straight away.2 yearsI didn’t know the number, so I chose not to pick up. It went straight to voicemail, but there was no message left behind.2 yearsReally convincing at first, they tried to give away free personal alarms aimed at older folks. They didn’t even know how old I was. But as soon as he brought up setting up a Direct Debit, I just told him no and quickly ended the call.2 yearsThis number rang me even though I’m on the TPS list. Didn’t leave any voicemail or anything. Honestly, be careful if you answer. If you have caller ID, best to just ignore it. And if you do answer, hang up immediately without saying a word.Telephone Preference Service2 yearsI was asked if I could hear them and, without really thinking, I said yes - probably shouldn’t have!2 yearsGot a call from 02843780098 today between 12 and 10pm. The person claimed to be a health worker assigned to my neighbourhood, saying my medical records show I need some kind of health monitor. I’m pretty healthy and barely take any medicine, maybe a paracetamol a handful of times a year. Felt like a total scam to me!2 yearsI let it ring for a moment before picking up, but then it just cut off. If it was someone legit, they’d probably hang around a bit longer to give you a chance to get to the phone.2 yearsI reckon it was a scam, cause as soon as my answerphone picked up, they hung up straight away.2 yearsThey were trying to pitch those medical alert devices and services. Definitely sounded like some kind of sales call.2 yearsIt was one of those automated calls pushing some sort of sale, obviously prerecorded.2 yearsGot a call from an unknown number I wasn't expecting. Didn't answer it and they left no voicemail. Figured it was probably a scam.2 yearsI got a call from this number earlier. The person on the other end asked, "Can you hear me?" When I asked who it was, they just went quiet and ended the call.2 yearsI got a call from someone saying they were a social worker around here in the south east. They started quizzing me about my health stuff, which felt odd, so I just ended the call.2 yearsTotally felt like a scam, they claimed to be from healthcare but I reckon it might’ve been some sort of pre-recorded thing! The pauses between words were way too long, couldn’t properly answer when I asked stuff, just stuck to their script. They told me I supposedly had some medical issue, like what even? Then straight onto offering some emergency alert pendant with a price, which I don’t require at all. I kept shouting “scam” and then the call just dropped!2 yearsSome bloke called Sam rang me, said he was from local health services. Turned out to be one of those dodgy sales calls.Sam2 yearsTotal scam, please stay clear. Just some rubbish about medical stuff.2 yearsBeware, this is a scam call! They’ve been ringing from 02843 780095 and maybe other numbers that look alike. They try to push some sort of medical alert system on you. Best to just block them and not fall for it.2 yearsGot a dodgy call from someone pretending to be a health professional saying I was eligible for a medical alert pendant. They insisted it was essential because my health issues could be very risky. When I asked questions, they kept dodging them and just kept saying their files said I’m over 70 and have severe conditions. Problem is, I’m younger than 70 and my health problems aren’t life-threatening at all. Honestly, felt like a sketchy and worrying scam. They ended the call when I kept pressing them on where exactly they were calling from.2 yearsI think this call is from some sort of AI bot, it sounds like it’s just picking up keywords or listening for a human voice before hanging up. The background noise makes it sound proper real too! I got the same call once from 02871 142700. When I figured out it was a bot, I just stayed silent and after a while they gave up and called off.2 yearsGot a call from a scammer, and I noticed they’re also using the number 02843780078 to ring people.2 yearsSome bloke called about a medical alert thing, but I told him I’m on the TPS registry and he just dropped the line.TPS2 yearsSupposedly got a missed call but my phone didn’t buzz at all.2 yearsGot a call out the blue about solar panels, wasn’t expecting it at all.2 yearsOn Monday 15th April, someone phoned my mum claiming they had details about her health and insisted she needed an 'emergency pull cord' fitted at her place. When she asked how they knew this, they refused to explain. She then told them she wasn’t interested in continuing the chat since it didn’t seem genuine.2 yearsI got a call from someone pretending to be a medical alert service. They kept asking, “Can you hear me?” but I read somewhere that if you say yes, they might use your voice recording in some bad ways. It’s really shady, and I think they target older folks mostly. So be careful and don’t say yes!2 yearsI had a feeling this might be some sort of scam. After checking out the reviews from others, I decided to block the number straight away.2 yearsLike another person mentioned, this bloke called and just asked if I could hear him properly, but then there was all this racket in the background. I decided to block the number straight away.2 yearsGot a call from some AI voice, claiming to be medical sales or something. Totally felt like a scam to me. Wouldn’t trust it.2 yearsSomeone rang up and asked if I could hear them, then just ended the call right away.2 yearsSomebody rang me pretending to be from the local health service, saying because of my age I qualified for a free Medi Alert Button. They said the service would just cost me a quid or so each day. It’s really unsettling how they already had my age and medical info on hand.2 yearsI got a call from someone pretending to be from my bank, asking for my details. It’s really annoying since I’m on the telephone preference service list already. You would think they’d be able to do something to block these fraudsters from ringing us.Telephone Preference Service2 yearsThe phone rang and when I picked up, the first thing said was, "Hello, are you able to hear me properly?" I just hung up straight away.2 yearsThese scammers are so rubbish, you'd think they’ve never used a phone before. Hardly convincing at all!2 yearsI got a call from someone saying I qualified for a medical pendant, but I told them I wasn’t interested and just ended the call.2 yearsThis number just keeps bugging me, can’t get them to leave me alone!2 yearsGot a call about button pendants costing £1.50 a day, but they started asking loads of personal stuff like age and health problems. I didn’t give them any info and just hung up. If someone vulnerable answered, it could be really risky because they might spill out private details. Really, it’s best not to pick up at all. They should definitely make laws against this kinda thing, with proper fines or even jail time. Would make things so much safer if scammers got locked up properly.2 yearsI received a call from this number, despite the fact that I'm on the Telephone Preference Service list to avoid any marketing calls. Quite frustrating, really!Preference Service2 yearsThis was definitely a medical alarm scam, and it wasn’t someone real talking, just some AI voice.2 yearsThey kept ringing again n again, I just didn’t pick up and eventually blocked the number.2 yearsMy elderly mum got a call from this number earlier, and the person on the line started asking if she was being properly cared for. It made her really uneasy and she ended up just hanging up. Definitely not a nice experience.2 yearsGot a call pitching some kind of personal alarm for seniors. The voice sounded a bit off, like maybe it was AI or something, because it kept talking even when I was trying to reply. Proper strange experience.2 yearsGot a call but it was dead silent, no one said a word or left a message.2 yearsPicked up the phone but no one was there. Ended up hanging up and then blocked the number.2 yearsGot yet another call from the same call centre, but they keep switching the extension on me. They just let it ring a few times then drop it every time. Seems like they're checking which numbers are active for some debt recovery firm or maybe just scammers messing about. I've blocked the number anyway, looks like it's spoofed.2 yearsGot a call about personal alarms, asked them where they got my details from but heard nothing back!2 yearsGot a call earlier today and when I picked up, a voice in English asked if I could hear them. I said yes and asked what it was about, but then nothing, just silence. I ended up hanging up. Proper annoying!2 yearsI got a call this evening about some survey to see if I'm eligible for solar panels. The person asked a bunch of scripted questions with pauses, like you had to answer during the silences. Seemed like it could be some kind of AI or automated system. They wanted details like what age group you fall into and stuff. Bit odd if you ask me.SOLAR PANELS2 yearsGot a call out of nowhere about a free solar panel estimate, so I just blocked the number.2 yearsIn the afternoon of April 9th, 2024, I got a call on my landline from a number I didn't know, so I just let it ring out. I’m based close to Bath in the south west of England.BathEngland2 yearsSo this bloke ringed me up about personal alarms. Funny thing is, he reckoned I was over 70, which I'm definitely not! I asked him where he got his info from but he just shrugged it off and started going on about how their alarms work. I told him first I wanted to know who he really was, then he just cut me off. By the way, he said he was calling from Dorset.Dorset2 yearsToday, I noticed a missed call from this number which I didn’t recognise at all. Figured it was probably a scam, especially after reading some of the reviews here. We’re on the TPS and also keep our number ex-directory, so clearly they're breaking the rules by contacting us.Telephone Preference Service2 yearsGot a call from what seemed like a scam, definitely dodgy!2 yearsThey rang me but hung up the moment my answering machine kicked in.2 yearsGot a call from 1572, I tried to pick up but no answer, then the number got blocked. Strange behaviour.2 yearsI wasn’t home when this number rang on my landline today, and they didn't bother leaving a voicemail. This is the first time I’ve seen a call from them.2 yearsThey ask you questions just to make you say yes, then they record it to hack into your phone banking. They claim they’re selling personal alarms for people over 60, so they’re mainly targeting older folks.2 yearsReceived a rather fishy call earlier today (04/04/2024) from someone purporting to be a healthcare professional supposedly reaching out to those over 70 or with significant health concerns who haven't yet acquired a personal medical alert. When I pressed him about how he had obtained my information, he became increasingly dodgy-he asserted he had a list but was unable to provide my name or the source of this list. I challenged him on the legality of handling personal data like that, referencing data protection laws. Seemingly overwhelmed, he abruptly hung up on me!2 yearsGot a dodgy call on our home phone about renewing some phone contract but they never said which company. Totally suspicious, so I just blocked the number. It's awful how these scammers target people who might not be able to protect themselves - honestly they deserve proper jail time for this.2 yearsI tried phoning them, but they never heard me on the line.2 yearsThere was a bit of silence before they asked, "Can you hear me?" Then after another awkward pause and a hmm, I just hung up. Blocked straight away!2 yearsI got a call from a number I didn’t know and decided not to pick up since it seemed like it could be one of those scam calls. Didn’t really want to take the risk.2 yearsI picked up a call from this number, only to be greeted by nothing but silence on the other end. After a moment, the caller just hung up.
