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.

Got bombarded with calls from this so‑called ‘company’ asking me to return a call about a ‘financial matter’ that wasn’t mine. Assuming it was an error, I called back, and they immediately demanded my home address and email to ‘fix’ it. Since then they’ve called from different numbers, left voicemails, always a Scottish female voice, and I’ve blocked at least ten of them. Stay away!
