I answered the call but they hung up - so I called it back to hear an automated reply say "thanks for calling the Energy Department - press 1 to speak to someone" and then a second later - "thats great - someone will call you back on..." and it hangs up. Clearly a SCAM call - so Ive now blocked their number

Received a call from this number but missed it. Reading the comments, I'm glad I did. Surely BT or whoever supplies numbers for this area code (Carlisle) can trace the who it's allocated to.

Called saying from a repair company then hung up. Obviously expecting me to call back. SCAM. Did not try to call me again. Left no messages.

This number called whilst I was awaiting a really important phone call! And wouldn't take no for an answer until I hung up!

  • Automatic scam number blocking

  • Call recording for safety
  • Trusted person monitoring

Phonely's digital landline was built specifically to protect vulnerable people from nuisance and scam calls. See how Phonely protects your home phone or compare the best digital landline UK.
