I've received a call claiming to be from O2 regarding my contract renewal. It feels like they are more interested in persuading me to take up additional services rather than just sorting out my contract.

It’s really annoying, these people keep ringing me from different numbers every time I block one. I don’t want random calls from Ireland, especially while I’m at work during the daytime. Just wish they’d stop!

This number rang me again on Saturday 18/02/2023 at 9:17 in the morning. When I answered, there was nothing but silence for a bit, then I heard a noise that sounded like a sheep going "meh". I just hung up straight away. Later, I dialled 1471 and found out it was the same caller who bothered me twice the previous day. I've already made it clear - I don’t share any personal details with them.

This number keeps ringing me up quite a lot. I’ve ignored all the calls since it came up as a possible spam caller. Strangely, I’ve seen it often happens just a little while after I’ve been scrolling through my social media accounts. Don’t know if that’s just a coincidence or not.

I was bombarded with a series of queries. They wanted to know my age, relationship status, whether I had a will sorted, and if I experienced any kind of discomfort, among other things. Quite the interrogation, if you ask me!

Twice in just a couple hours now. I told them before I don’t chat about personal stuff with random calls. First one was around 3:17pm asking if I’m working or retired, then just a bit ago at 5:36pm some Asian guy asked my age bracket. How many times do I gotta say “No” for them to get it?

This number rang me up at about 3:17 in the afternoon. The person on the line was an Asian gentleman who started asking some questions. When he wanted to know if I was still working or had retired, I told him straight up that I never share personal details with strangers on the phone, especially cold calls, and then I just hung up. I reckon what they’re after is slowly building a profile on us with every call, collecting bits of info. Eventually, they’ll have enough to sell it off, maybe for identity fraud or worse. So seriously, don’t hand over any info!

About an hour and a bit ago, this phone number rang me but I was tied up so I let it go. Later, I thought I’d see if they were legit or just another scammer. The number didn’t look familiar, and I’m honestly so sick of these dodgy people trying to make easy cash without doing any real work like everyone else.

02896 206 561 keeps ringing but no one talks, it's really annoying. Today I missed a proper call coz I was busy picking up yet another silent call from this number. Is it that hard for Ofgem or some official body to deal with these constant pest calls? They've been an issue for ages.

Today I got calls from a few different numbers, but it was all the same company. They said they were doing a survey and wanted to ask me three quick questions. When I asked why, the guy just gave a really vague answer. I told him I’d already talked to three of his coworkers today and said no to them as well. Then he tried to say he hadn’t even called me before, like that was gonna change anything. Bit annoying!

I just let most calls go straight to voicemail nowadays, especially from numbers I don’t recognise. If it’s something important, they’ll either text or leave a message. Best way is to block these random calls, they’re usually not legit anyway!

This number has rung me a few times along with a couple of others starting with 028 from Ireland. I don’t know anyone over there so I’m pretty sure they’re all just scams trying to catch people out. The other numbers were 02821751030 and 02821751037 if that helps anyone else.

Never pick up calls from unknown numbers. If it's someone genuine or someone you recognise, they’ll probably just message you if it’s really urgent. Just go ahead and block these kinds of calls, they’re usually a hassle!
