08438682209 - this number looks like a scam, it just rings once and cuts off before you can pick up. Ive blocked it now, fingers crossed it doesnt bother me again.

0843 878 2239 keeps calling me but only rings once, so I can never pick up quick enough. After that, a recorded message says I’ve won something. It’s obviously a scam. It’s shocking that nothing’s done to put an end to these annoying calls. I think it’s a premium number made to trick you into calling back. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE TO HALT THESE CALLS!

Rings nonstop every day with just a few seconds then hangs up. I don’t pick up because last time I did, my bill ended up like £10 more! If I were you, don’t answer and block the number if possible. Also, if ya block it they just try calling from somewhere else. Someone seriously needs to find a way to report these annoying calls!

This number rang me with a recorded message claiming I’d won a prize and to press 2 for a callback within a day. I was a bit distracted by my kid and hit 2 without much thought, but then felt it was a mistake. The call disconnected right after. I’ve now blocked the number so it won’t bother me again.

I usually dont pick up numbers I dont reconise, even if they’re from my area. If its important, they’ll leave a message. I just block the number and avoid calling back as that might be one of those scams where you get charged for returning the call.

Honestly, folks, you can easily verify the number on the Premium Regulator’s site - it only charges 10p a minute. This isn't some dodgy scam number, it won’t leave you with an insane bill. If you trust everything you see in the Daily Mail, well, that’s on you - that paper’s scamming you already!

They rang once and then just ended the call. I always check numbers like this on here if they seem dodgy. Saw the info about the Daily Mail story on here too. Got in touch with Vodafone and they told me there were no costs from that call but they know about the scam and have blocked those numbers now. If the call comes through again, they said I won’t be billed. So if you get called by them, ring your phone provider straight away!

SCAM alert - I read about this on the Daily Mail site. They said you get a super short call, like just a couple of seconds, and then later get charged something crazy like £300 on your phone bill. I rang my network provider and they said no such charges on my account, but I’ve told them to keep an eye out just in case. Fingers crossed it doesn’t cause any trouble down the line.

It only rang the one time, so I looked them up here - anyone else think we should go after their bosses? Total scam for sure!

This number has rung me about half a dozen times today, and each time I just hang up and blocked it.

These scam callers ring me non stop, it’s driving me mad. Had to switch off my phone just to get some peace, now I’m missing proper important calls.

Just one ring? What, do I look like someone important or something?

I’d definitely block these types of calls. Watch out for numbers, especially ones starting with 0870 or similar, that hit you with crazy charges if you return their call. It’s a real rip-off!

This number rang me earlier but I ignored it and didn’t phone back. Lucky I didn’t, cos I later found out it’s linked to a scam. Came across a piece about it on the This is Money site. So if you have already returned the call, get in touch with your mobile company quick, especially if your plan has limited minutes - a short 30 second chat could end up charging you for hours!

Got a call that was just a ring and then cut off straight away. Seems like they’re probably checking which lines are active so they can peddle the info to marketing firms.

They just called once and then cut off right away.

It only buzzed once before cutting off. I’ve snapped some screenshots since I heard you might get billed for calling back for up to five hours, even if you never actually did. So, I've gone ahead and blocked the number now.

Got a call from this number and thought about returning it, but decided to look it up first. Turns out it’s a scam and ringing back can end up costing you a lot because it’s linked to a premium rate. So, I just blocked it and didn’t bother ringing back.

It called just once, I picked up and then it hung up straightaway.

My phone just buzzed once and then cut off before I could pick up. I tried calling the number back but nothing - no ring, no answer at all. Found this website after a quick search and now I’m putting it straight on my blocked list.

They called me one time and ended the call straight away.

Absolute wankers, these scammers. I genuinely wish they have a nasty accident heading back home.

So irritating when they just call, ring once and then hang up straight away!

For heaven's sake, can someone put an end to these pesky interruptions? Honestly, if it were a mosquito, I'd have no qualms about squishing it!

Just like everyone else, it rang twice and then went quiet. I’ve blocked the number now.

Called me one time but didn’t leave any voicemail. Seems like they want you to ring them back for some kind of survey or questions. Not sure which business it is - best to steer clear.

They called me once on my mobile but just dropped the call. I've blocked them now.

Got a call from this number at 8 am, it only rang once. I was lucky to look it up here before returning the call. Definitely not going to answer if they try again, it's blocked now.

This number rang me yesterday but I didn’t answer. I usually don’t call back if I don’t recognise it, but I always look it up here to see who it might be.

They called me one time and then just dropped the line.
