Received the same as Dan. Just had a chat with a bloke called Matt after a bit of a kerfuffle, sounded positively Cockney! This was at 23:50 last night. Anyone think it might be linked to MBNA?

Blimey, that just happened and it absolutely terrified the life out of me! It's half past three in the morning, for goodness' sake!

We just hung up the phone, but it turns out we didn’t actually place it down at all. This was quite the premium number! Curious to find out who was racking up the charges?

We experienced something similar just now! Honestly, who knows what that was all about!? It started with a "Hello, is that Dan?" and then it got a bit jumbled for a moment. Suddenly, this bloke with a proper cockney accent started rambling, saying, "I can see what you’re up to, mate. Not picking up your calls, eh? Well, we’ve got a few questions for you." At that point, we decided to just hang up! What on earth was that all about? 😂

A rather menacing phone call, if I must say.

That was a peculiar phone call! It felt as if a recorded message started blaring the moment we answered.

We received a call from the number 0871 855 1271, claiming that our credit card is in a dire state of overdraft and that they were eager to help us sort it out. However, the whole thing sounded rather vague and unclear, so we decided to hang up. It honestly felt like some sort of joke, considering we don't owe a single penny!

Indeed, it seems to be one of those practical jokes where someone else foots the bill!

Indeed, it appears there’s someone out there who enjoys toying with folks by exploiting that website mentioned earlier. Quite amusing, really. This particular individual is demanding a staggering £150 a minute! What we’ve done is simply put the call on loudspeaker and share it with others until the ringing finally stops. Quite the spectacle, I must say!

Just received a call from these dodgy folk. It felt so staged, like it was straight out of a bad script. I didn't bother hanging on and simply ended the call.

Seems like I've stumbled upon a bit of a prank call situation here. They've got some sort of insight into our personal information, as they clearly knew my name. Quite concerning, really!

Lately, we've been receiving a barrage of late-night prank calls from 08000mumdad, usually between 1:30 and 4 in the morning. Now, another unfamiliar number has started ringing us too. I've reached out to the police because I'm feeling both frightened and furious about it all. We're desperate to find out who's behind this harassment. It's completely unsettling!

I've lodged a formal complaint regarding these bothersome calls with the department that handles menacing and nuisance calls at our provider. I highly recommend that others do the same.

Just before eleven this evening, our mobile buzzed with three calls, whilst our girlfriend’s landline rang twice. The number belongs to something called ‘Inventive Research in London’. Turns out, they’re conducting a survey about intimate matters. Honestly, it was rather vexing!

I’m absolutely fuming about this prank call! How on earth do you track down the person responsible? It’s really got me wound up. Should we even entertain answering calls like this again? I’m tempted to just block the number!

Is this service even legitimate? The calls keep coming through to our work mobile, and I can tell you, our manager isn't happy about it at all. I've reached out to '[email protected]' to get their take on the situation. Our number was supposed to be ex-directory and safeguarded by the Telephone Preference Service, so now I'm quite curious about the legal side of things.

I received a call from someone claiming to be affiliated with a national banking service, saying that a million quid had been deposited into my bank account. Strangely enough, the conversation took a bizarre turn, veering off into topics about animals and racy matters. I decided to hang up on the bloke, who had a rather eclectic accent-sounded a bit South African mixed with Aussie. Quite the odd experience, really!

I've lodged a complaint about these pesky nuisance calls and the issues they bring within our network. I really recommend that everyone else do the same. It's high time we take a stand!

I received a call from some individuals claiming to be from the national banking watchdog regarding some suspicious activity in my bank account. Unfortunately, because they were speaking to my voicemail, the beginning of the message was cut off and it oddly started repeating towards the end. Quite a peculiar situation!

I just received a call from this number, and it was quite peculiar. As soon as I picked up, someone on the other end said, "Hello, who am I speaking to?" I didn’t respond, and they went on to claim they were looking for someone specific. Apparently, they were portraying themselves as a chief inspector or something like that, investigating a scam, and our name had popped up in their inquiries. They suggested we might be at risk of identity theft! I have a strong feeling this is just a pre-recorded message.

Hello there! We've been trying to reach you for a while now. We were previously known as Graham Adams; does that ring any bells for you? When we called, it felt as though we were just listening to a voicemail or something-very odd indeed. By the way, who's this Graham Adams chap? Ha!
