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.
Zilch to report.

Guys, obviously a scam! Here's why... They ring claiming a survey, but it's totally misleading. They start one way and veer off... Plus, to convince you, they spout nonsense like all pharmacy cosmetics being fake—which is ridiculous and untrue, as I know from inside the industry! Finally, calling you by full name like old pals... no way. I respect folks in these roles and always respond politely, but this one really gets my goat.
Acts all matey to dig for dirt on folks she aims to smear with fake gossip about people, pairs, or just to grab attention. 'I'd never stoop to such trashy antics' is her go-to line.
No sound on the line
Ignored thanks to phone's suspected spam warning.
Claimed to be from Amazon, inquiring about a recent iPhone order on my account. They turned nasty after I called them fraudsters and suggested they sod off.
They won't stop phoning, the pests.
Top-notch Veterinary Services in the Northumberland region. Features the latest facilities including hypnotherapy pools for pets, working animals, and farm stock. Boasts a wide array of specialist vets in the practice. Primary location in Morpeth. Decades of esteemed care from expert Veterinary Surgeons, Nurses, Therapists, and staff. Everything prioritises the welfare and top interests of diverse animal types. My livestock have been registered and treated by various vets here since I was 19. Approaching my 60th birthday in 2025. No other place gets my recommendation. Lower costs often lead to reduced service quality, as I've learned firsthand. Just as you'd see a doctor if feeling poorly, don't neglect your pet, companion, or loyal family member. Thanks to everyone at R & P.
Keeps ringing non-stop
I picked up, but the line went dead straight away.
Unsolicited sales from Colt Tech
A real person phoned, requesting the individual listed for this number in directories. When I asked why, they hesitated with 'Um...' and hung up. I called back twice: first it just rang, then an IVR with poor English and robotic tone answered, purporting to be a credit repair firm, before going to voicemail.
Unfamiliar caller, rang at 8 in the evening.
