UK numbers: context and signals
Unsure about a UK caller? Find fresh community reports to judge unknown calls or texts. In London, Manchester, Birmingham, Edinburgh or Glasgow you’ll see legitimate callbacks (banks, clinics, deliveries) alongside waves of automated or misleading contacts. Area codes like 020, 0161, 0121, 0131 are not reliable for location due to portability/VoIP — use them as context, not proof.
What to do: if unsure, return calls via the official number on the company site/app, check in‑app notices, and don’t share one‑time codes. Use device filters/blocks and, if available, carrier tools (EE, O2, Vodafone, Three). Share a short factual note here so others can decide faster.
They hung up without leaving a message, which seemed like spam.
Mentioned solar panels, but offered no useful info.
Yet another annoying survey.
Alleged involvement in an accident‑related scam.
They keep ringing me, and I have no idea who she is.
When the number rang, I answered to find nobody, and a callback showed the line was switched off.
Unidentified

There's a lot of energy.
Ordered three desktop monitor stands from Rozetka; the delivery details listed this number as the sender, so I looked it up online. Nothing alarming turned up, the stands arrived the next day, all in perfect condition – very satisfied!

Just another scam.
No idea what this was.
Just a stray number, mate.
Looks like a classic scam: a nationwide text saying a £479.99 payment to ‘GOCOMPARE’ was declined, then asking you to reply Y or N – which just confirms your bank details to crooks. I spotted the trick early and wanted to warn everyone, so stay safe, yeah.
A young caller insisted I’d requested a life‑insurance call, persisted despite my refusal, so I hung up and blocked the number.
Received an unexpected call.
