It appears that Transparent Telecom has been ringing up senior citizens, trying to persuade them to switch their phone services over to TT.

I discovered to my surprise that I had been billed three times over consecutive days for calls that I certainly did not place to this number. Upon further inquiry, I came across information indicating it's linked to a scam! Thankfully, BT sorted out the issue and refunded me the excess charges.

Received a call from someone claiming to be with Compare Cover, delving into inquiries about life insurance. When I pushed back, wanting to understand their motives, the tone of the caller became rather snobbish before abruptly ending the conversation. The number displayed was 01784 303504, which also seemed associated with 0871 918 9188.

Earlier today, I received a call from the number 01869737981. It was claimed to be Sky, discussing my internet speeds. I must admit, I fell for their spiel and ended up revealing quite a bit of personal information—what a blunder! There were three individuals on the line, which made their story seem credible, with me being transferred to a so-called senior manager. Foolish me! In the end, they managed to extract £99 from my bank account. Fortunately, I had a nagging feeling something was off, so I disconnected and promptly reached out to my bank. They were quick to cancel my card and thankfully refunded the £99. Cheers to HSBC for their support! That’s all I have to share, folks. Yours truly, A Mortified Resident of Lancashire.

I had a rather puzzling experience with the number 01763694771. When I picked up, they promptly hung up on me. Curiosity got the better of me, so I attempted to ring them back, only to be informed that this number is not currently active. Instead, I was directed to an entirely different number, 08719189188. Just to clarify, I never dialled that one. Very odd, indeed!

I keep receiving calls from this number, despite being registered on the Telephone Preference Service. Honestly, what's the point of the TPS if these nuisance callers continue to ring? Each time they're met with a recorded message informing them my number is safeguarded by Call Guardian, but they hang up as if they don't get the message. It's baffling that they fail to realise they're blocked!

I was trying to obtain a number I desperately needed, but upon calling this one, I was informed it would cost me 10 pence a minute. I promptly hung up – simply not worth it!

There’s really no reason to raise your voice.

I recently came across a number linked to the replacement of switchgear phone systems and their associated equipment. When you give them a bell, they inform you that the call will set you back ten pence per minute. On top of that, they provide a wealth of information that could conveniently assist you in gathering everything you might need for legal action. Quite the straightforward process to obtain crucial details, if you ask me!

I keep getting these bothersome calls that are rather irritating.

I received a call from a number based in Leicester, but I haven't the foggiest who it could be. I decided to return the call, only to be prompted to dial an 0871 number, which are notorious for their hefty charges. That's rather dodgy, if you ask me! I've had enough of it, so I’m blocking the number right away.

I received a call that began with a pre-recorded message inquiring whether it was time for me to get my oven cleaned. The caller ID showed a local number, but when I attempted to ring them back, I was met with a message stating that the number was no longer in service. Instead, it instructed me to contact 08719189188 – I wouldn't advise doing that!

I attempted to contact my son, but the number he provided seems to be disconnected. I was directed to call a different number for further details. However, when I rang that number, I promptly ended the call upon discovering there was a charge of 10 pence per minute.

I happened to miss a call earlier and decided to look into it. The number displayed was 0184-256-3415. Upon calling it back, I received a rather unhelpful “not in service” message.

I've noticed a charge on my phone bill, yet I haven’t a clue regarding the identity of the caller. The same goes for the number 08727370000. Quite mysterious!

I've been getting frequent calls from this number, which appears to be linked to Stoke-on-Trent. I decided to return the call, using the 141 prefix for privacy, only to be greeted by a recorded message claiming that the number is inactive. The message then urged me to contact 08719 189 188 for further details. Oddly enough, I can't find any information regarding the 0871 number either. Quite perplexing, really!
