Best to just not bother with it, 99% of the time it’s some kind of scammer.

Got a couple of calls on my home phone today from someone claiming to be an energy advisor nearby. Felt a bit dodgy to me. Could hear people laughing in the background, so I reckon it was some call centre nonsense.

Got another strange call today from a number with an area code miles away from my home. I answered but said nothing, hoping whoever it was would speak up or explain why they're calling. Instead, I just got about half a minute of silence, which definitely seemed like an automated call. I think it's linked to a previous call I got, which also had that same silent pause but from a different fake number. Since I'm on the TPS list, it's almost certainly some sort of scam.

Got two calls from this number just moments apart, so I decided to check it out here. Turns out, it’s a scam. Don’t pick up!

I keep getting calls from this number where they ask for someone who’s not me. I tell them they have the wrong person, but then another number calls me doing exactly the same thing. It’s really annoying!

Had a call from someone saying they were from O2, offering a discount. I told them I’d just pop into my nearest shop instead, and they got proper annoyed with me. I wasn’t having it though, said straight up I knew it was a scam. They tried to convince me otherwise but I cut them off and blocked the number.

So weird, I picked up the phone and all I got was some robot voice saying "goodbye" before it just cut off the call! Didn’t even get a chance to say anything.

Got a call from some housing association compliance folks about an issue I supposedly raised. Thing is, I never reported anything and I’m not part of any housing association. I kept the phone on just to see what they'd do, but as soon as they figured I wasn’t saying anything, they just ended the call.

They ring me and just cut off right away, so I'm definitely blocking that number!

They called a few times but hung up before I could pick up. Never got a callback or any message afterwards. Pretty clear it was just spam or a scam.

Got a call from an Asian guy claiming I had £2.99 compensation coming my way, but he couldn’t explain what it was for. He said since he had my phone number, he must have my address too. I told him to post it over then. Classic scam attempt, nothing new.

This number showed up loads, 285 times apparently, but I just ignored it cos I didnt know who it was. How come someone with so many calls can still be allowed to keep their phone? Seems odd to me.

Got a call from 07944519035 then later from this other number saying they were from EE. They weren’t actually EE and even tried guessing my date of birth. Totally dodgy, don’t trust anyone calling like that!

Just like loads of people have said, it’s dead irritating when there’s silence if you don’t say anything and if you do, it’s probably a scam. Proper annoying.

For over six weeks now, I’ve been getting hit by this dodgy SIM card scam on my mobile, and it’s always from new numbers. This one was just another suspicious caller trying the same trick. The call ended abruptly.

Got a call from this really pushy bloke trying to sell me insurance. Once I called him out on being dodgy, he just ended the call immediately. Proper rude!

Got a barely there voicemail asking me to join some WhatsApp group. Felt a bit iffy about it, so I just blocked the number.

Got a call from some bloke named Lloyd, trying to sell me a dodgy car finance deal. Didn’t buy it, just blocked the number straight away.

I didn’t pick up, but out of curiosity I called the number back and got some robot voice saying thanks for contacting Advisory Services. Definitely one of those cold calls!

I reckon yourmobile.com teams up with EE for business phone deals.

Got some bloke calling me up claiming he’s my new landlord, keeps going on about evicting me from a house I actually own. I just had a right chuckle and told him to get on with it if that's what he thinks he can do.

Total con man stuff. Something about capital trying to push rubbish.

This is what scammers usually do, they just want you to pick up so they can mark your number as live and pass it on to others. Best not to reply or ring them back. Just block the number straight away and make sure to report it to help protect other people.

Got a call from 0203 3808017 on my BT landline on 17th Sept, claiming some home owner scam. Be careful, don’t ever say ‘YES’ to them. I’ve already reported it to bt.com/scams.

Got a call from this number but no voicemail or message was left.
