I keep getting these quiet calls right on the hour, it's kinda strange.

I got a call from a lady with an Asian accent, talking about my internet. When I asked where she was calling from, she just kept repeating that it was about my internet and something about checking my usage. I asked again who her company was, and then she just hung up on me.

Got a call from a woman with an Asian accent, saying something about my internet. When I asked her where she was calling from, she just kept repeating it was about my internet and mentioned something about checking how I use it. I tried to get her to say who exactly she was with, but then she hung up on me.

They never reply. Every time it's a call exactly on the hour.

Just got called about some dodgy charges on my Amazon account that I didn't make. Was proper worried at first, but turns out it was some scam trying to scare me. Luckily, I checked my bank and sorted it out quick. Watch out guys, these payment scams are getting clever!

Got a call from some automated voice claiming to be my bank’s security team talking about some amazon payment mess. They kept saying press 1 if I didn’t make the payment or something. Total rubbish and just a dumb robo call.

Got a call on my home phone from some automated voice pretending to be from my bank - they never said which one though. They told me there was some dodgy activity, like a £700 payment to Amazon. They wanted me to press 1 or 2 to sort it out, but obviously I ignored it and didn’t press anything.

Got a call from an Asian woman saying she was with Virgin Media. She asked me how many gadgets were hooked up to my internet because apparently my network had been compromised.

I had a call from an Indian woman claiming she was helping to put a stop to all these annoying calls we keep getting - bit ironic, right? Then she asked me exactly how I say my first name, apparently for some voice ID thing. FYI, I don’t even pay the phone bill, but she was convinced she had my card info. So I made up a card number on the spot, and she kept asking me to confirm this long string of numbers, one digit at a time, which obviously was wrong. Then she accused me of lying! I told her, “Mate, you’re the one lying, I made that card number up just to check you.” And she went completely quiet. Total scam.

Got a call from a woman with an Asian accent who wanted to know if we were still getting annoying calls. She said she was from BT and claimed from tomorrow they'd stop as my direct debit card on file was about to expire. She asked me for the new expiry date to update it. When I said I'd rather log in and sort it myself, she got a bit frustrated and told me to just grab my card and give her the details. I wasn't comfortable, so I just hung up.

I got a call from a mobile number saying there had been two big withdrawals from my bank account and asking if they were legit. Knowing banks don't usually phone from mobiles, I just ended the call straight away.

Got a call from a woman with an accent claiming she was from the telephone preference service trying to offer some kind of upgrade. When I told her I already got a call from TPS before and suspected she was a scammer, she got rude and just ended the call on me.

Got a call from someone saying they were from the TPS about my postcode. I told them outright it was a scam, and they got pretty rude after that.

So this bloke calls me, says he’s from Virgin and starts moaning that my internet speed isn’t what I’m paying for. Then he wants me to check my download and upload speeds. I told him he was the one making the claim, so he should just fix it on his end. Next thing, he just hangs up on me. Weird experience honestly.

Got a call from a lady with an Indian accent saying someone was messing with my internet. I asked if she was with BT, and she said yes. I just hung up after that. Not sure what that was all about. The number was 07840505230.

So this person rang up saying they were from Carphone Warehouse and that there was some sort of deal on an iPhone 14 just for me. Honestly, the way they spoke seemed really dodgy, like a total scam attempt.

Got a call from a lady with an Indian accent saying she was from Openreach, trying to tell me there was an issue with my internet. The moment she started on that, I just told her off and hung up straight away!

Had a call from a guy claiming to be from Amazon about something I supposedly ordered. I played along and asked him what exactly I bought, knowing full well it was a scam. He just hung up on me!

I was quite surprised when the phone just went straight to an answerphone message for Carphone Warehouse instead of someone picking up.
