12 monthsSomeone called pretending to be from Three, saying I had a new SIM card or something like that. Seems like a classic scam to me. Definitely not legit!2 yearsThe moment my husband picked up, the caller just dropped the call. I’ve blocked the number now.2 yearsSome guy saying he’s from my local health service called me. Told him to buzz off. Total SCAM.2 yearsEvery time I ask where they got my details from, they just refuse to reply. Definitely sounds like a scam to me. This is the second time they’ve called me this week already.2 yearsAbsolutely no idea who this 0044846475374 number is linked to.2 yearsThey said I qualified for a medical alert device and mentioned they didn’t want me to have a fall and not be discovered.2 yearsI got a call from this number, the guy spoke with an Irish accent and talked for a bit, but I wasn’t sure who it was so I just ended the call. Seems a bit dodgy to me. 028437802232 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be from health services, trying to push a pendant on me because of my health issues. When I asked for their name and where they were calling from, they went silent and then just ended the call. Definitely a scam, blocked the number straight away. They're just looking for people who might be easy to trick.2 yearsGot two calls today from someone saying his name was ‘Sam’, but from different phone numbers. He kept speaking over my partner who wouldn’t give out any details. Tried the same with me after I told him he spoke to my husband, then just hung up. The intro was something about a local health service, pushing personal medical alarms or the like. I’ve blocked the numbers and will be reporting them to the TPS.SamTelephone Preference Service2 yearsSome bloke said he was from the health dept and that they had a list of folks over 70 nearby who could use a mobile alarm - total scam though, but I reckon some might fall for it.2 yearsHe just said, “hello, can you hear me okay?” I said yes, then he just went “ok” and hung up straight away!!2 yearsJust got a call where they started with that classic 'can you hear me' line.2 yearsScammer Sam’s back, ringing me from another number.Scam Sam2 yearsReally polite sounding SCAM about medical alarms or something. Ive got 2 hospital visits coming up but was out last night. Looked this morning and realised it was a scam. I wish the gov would do more to stop these con artists.2 yearsI've come across a rather dodgy individual peddling personal safety alarms, probably aiming to collect our information.2 yearsGot a call from a guy named Sam, claiming hes my health worker. Said because of my meds, Im at risk of falling and need a panic button. I asked where he got my info from, but he just brushed it off and started going on about the benefits. Ended the call straight away. Seems like a total scam to me.Sam2 yearsA guy named Sam phoned me claiming to be with community health. He asked if I might find a free personal alarm handy. I mentioned I’m over 75 but still quite lively, then he just hung up. He sounded quite young and had a really polite tone.Sam2 yearsSome bloke kept going on about a wrist alert gadget. Was impossible to get a word in edgeways, ended up just hanging up.2 yearsHe asked if I could hear him alright, but then there was nothing from his side.2 yearsGot a call saying they’d already got all my details and wanted to offer me a medical alert button, absolute con job! I told them I wasn’t disabled and I was just 36 (not true, just shaved a bit off my age) but they were still trying to sell me this 'safety' device. Decided to just let them keep talking and rack up their phone charges.2 yearsGot a call from a guy named "Sam," sounded quite posh, offering some kind of free medic alert device. He kept saying he had access to my medical records, but when I asked him what part of the NHS he was from, he got all dodgy and couldn’t give a straight answer. After a couple of times, he just put the phone down. Bit suspicious if you ask me.Sam2 yearsGot a call from a bloke with a posh English accent, called himself Sam, claiming to be a health worker. Turned out he was trying to sell some health product, saying I needed it because of certain health issues. I cut him off straight away once I told him he wasn’t with the NHS and the call was unsolicited. No idea where he got my number from. Worried he might be targeting older, more vulnerable folk with health problems.SamNHS2 yearsGot a robo call the other day, some scam about selling these medical alert pendants. Definitely one of those dodgy schemes.2 yearsGot a call from this number but didn't pick up. When I tried calling back, it didn't seem familiar at all. After seeing what others have said about it, I guess it was a good thing I didn't answer!2 yearsI wouldn’t bother picking up if you don’t know the number.2 yearsGot a call today from someone claiming to be a health advisor for my region, saying I have health issues and qualify for a personal alarm device. Total scam. I just ended the call straight away.2 yearsLike all the ones before, it’s a total medical rip-off. They act like they know your business better than you do!2 yearsJust now got a call and it was just like what the other person said before. The guy on the line acted like he knew more about my medical stuff than I do or even my own doctor. I told him straight up that it was a scam and then I ended the call.2 yearsReceived a call on my landline from a likely scammer. Right away I said, "May I ask who’s calling?" Instead of giving a name, even a fake one, the caller just asked if I could hear him. I politely repeated my question about his identity, keeping my tone friendly both times. After a brief silence, he simply said, "So." Seemingly reconsidering, he hung up. I’ve noticed that answering and calmly asking who’s on the line sometimes makes these annoying calls stop sooner. Cheers to those who managed to find out more about what these tricksters are really after.2 yearsReceived a call from this number on the 14th of June, 2024.2 yearsThis bloke called saying he was from our neighbourhood health service and mentioned we supposedly had some condition that needed a safety alarm. How do they even get hold of that kinda info? After that, he tried to push a quote on us. Total SCAM!2 yearsI picked up and tried to answer all polite-like, but it felt like one of those auto dialler scams for sure. Most likely a scammer just trying to get a reaction.2 yearsGot a call from some bloke talking about a Medic alert or something. I told him straight up that I don’t chat about personal stuff with strangers on the phone.2 yearsThis number rang me in the early afternoon and said they were from some local health service. They went on about me being on this 'vulnerable senior' list or something. Since I never gave them my details, I told the person it seemed dodgy as they didnt even know who I was. Not long after, they just cut the call.2 yearsSomebody rang me saying they’d got my info from another company and wanted to offer a 24-hour alert pendant. They said it would only cost about £1.70 a day, but that price might drop to £1.35 depending on a few things. The caller added it was usually for folks over 70, but since I have some health problems, I qualified for it. They also said the device itself was free. I told them to ring me later as I was just about to make lunch, then they just ended the call. When I looked up the number, it didn’t look like any legit one I’d seen before.2 yearsI had a call from a chap trying to sell a medical alert pendant for just £1.73 a day. When I mentioned that I wasn't keen, he fell completely quiet, likely chatting with his manager on how to handle refusals. I later learned from Which that this sort of scam has been on the rise lately.2 yearsMy phone showed it as a spam call but I still picked up, then they just hung up right away.2 yearsThey mentioned something about doors and windows, but the moment I kept quiet, they just ended the call.2 yearsSome bloke was trying to sell me a medical alert pendant for just £1.73 a day. I told him I wasn’t interested and then he just went quiet, I reckon he was on the phone to his boss figuring out how to handle refusals. Saw on Which that these kinds of scams are definitely on the rise lately.2 yearsThe caller hung up without bothering to leave a message - just the typical ploy you see with scammers.2 yearsMy phone flagged that number as annoying spam, so I just went ahead and blocked it right away.2 yearsGot a call from someone who said he was Sam, a health inspector, wanting to chat about my health. When I asked where he was calling from, he got all vague and quickly started pushing some personal health alarm thing. I told him to hold on a sec, then made it clear I wasn’t interested and asked him not to ring me again.

Let it ring to voicemail but no one picked up, sounds like some automated system just waiting for a "hello" or something.2 yearsSomebody rang me saying they were from a local health service and that I was listed as vulnerable due to medical issues. When I asked for more details about who they actually were, there was a long pause. Then the caller said their name was Sam and said I qualified for a free panic alarm or something like that. I tried to find out if they were with a private company, but they just went quiet again. After that, I just ended the call.Sam2 yearsGot a scam call. Tried to leave a message but just hung up straight away.2 yearsGot a call from recons, some local health service, they wanted to sell us a panic alarm.2 yearsThe person on the phone claimed to be "your local health inspector" and mentioned something like "based on your medical records..." I asked him, "what do you know about my health that I don’t?" but he didn’t answer. He was trying to pitch some kind of pendant with an alarm button that would call for medical help if pressed. I think he said it’d be about £1 a day, but I’m not sure of the exact price. He probably saw he wasn’t getting anywhere and just ended the call.2 years6/7/2024 - i picked up and they just ended the call right away!2 yearsDidn’t know the number so thought it might be a spam call and didn’t pick up. No voicemail left or anything.2 yearsSomeone called me up trying to push a medical alert necklace.2 yearsThey called claiming to be from the local health services and said my records show some health issues, but I’ve never accepted their Medical Pendant offer!2 yearsOver the past week, my folks have been getting loads of phone calls from different numbers, all these scammers asking for me - using my old surname! No idea how they connected me to my maiden name at all. They might as well stop, cos they’re not getting a single thing from us!2 yearsThis bloke spent ages going on about how he just wanted to ask a few easy questions, kept asking "Is that okay?" Over and over. I told him to knock it off and leave me alone. Done with him - blocked straight away!7 yearsI got a call from someone named Travoy who wanted to know who was paying for our electricity and gas. I didn’t want to give any details. He then mentioned something about an ASC Audit related to my meter. When I asked for his contact name and number so I could ring him back, he gave them to me. I said I’d verify everything with my energy company first and only call back if it seemed legit. Needless to say, I have no intention of ringing him again!TravoyASC7 yearsGot a call from 02843780223, proper rude about it. They kept demanding to talk to our General Manager, threatening fines if we didn’t share details about our energy usage or bills. Told them we wouldn’t give anything out since they’re not a real government agency or anything legal. Seems like a total scam to me.7 yearsThis bloke called Karl kept calling me over and over about checking my energy usage because of some new law. Honestly, it felt like a total scam and he was quite rude. He tried to keep me talking for ages but I never really worked out what he was up to. Would steer clear of him.Karl7 yearsKeep getting calls from someone wanting a copy of my energy bill, saying it's for some kind of government audit. They even leave voice messages when I don't pick up. Really annoying!7 yearsI got a few calls back-to-back from a woman named Rory claiming to be from Energy Check. She said she needed to do an ASC Audit on my company - I work as a catering manager for a pretty big firm! I told her I’m not the one who handles payments, that’s the client’s job anyway. Despite that, she kept going on, even talking over me when I was trying to find out what she actually wanted. When I told her she was being rude, she flipped it and called me rude instead! What a pair of idiots!RoryEnergy CheckASC7 yearskept ringing me up asking for a copy of my electricity bill to check if the charges are right / please block this number!7 yearsGot a call yet again from this woman, been ringing off and on for the past few weeks. Said it was some kind of government thing to inspect meters. The number popped up as from Newcastle in Northern Ireland, but she didn’t sound Irish at all. Said she found my details through ‘Credit Safe’. She mentioned their site was [#]energycheck[###], but when I checked the site myself, there was no sign they had anything to do with the caller. Seems like they’re just using a legit website to sound more trustworthy. Best to avoid them altogether.GovernmentNewcastleNorthern Ireland7 yearsWas getting a call about some energy deal, but she was just rattling off some rehearsed script way too quick. Told her I wasn’t interested in chatting. Then she said she’d call again on Monday - Easter Monday, of all days!8 yearsGot a call from a Newcastle number, some woman going on about energy stuff for business. I told her we’re not interested since we’ve just locked in a 3 year contract. She kept saying it wasn’t about contracts but was related to some new rules or whatever. I just told her to send me an email instead.Newcastle8 yearsI gotta say, this number is dodgy. Tried answering it a couple of times, just ended up with silence or some robot voice. Wouldn’t recommend picking up if you value your time. Stay clear!8 yearsGot a call from some Irish energy company scammers. They were going on about the recent hike in KPA or something like that. When I asked what they meant, they suddenly said they had to verify my info and then just dropped the call. Pretty dodgy behaviour if you ask me.IrelandKPA8 yearsGot a call about when the energy meter was last updated. They also said for businesses there's a KVA inspection required linked to BCP161.
