I answered and they used my name. I asked who was calling and they instantly hung up. Felt off. Don’t trust it.

Calls every day, usually around the same time. I never manage to answer it. No message left. Possibly a survey scam.

Couldn’t understand what the caller was saying or where they were from.

This number calls several per day. Very annoying. Spam no doubt. It only rings for a few seconds then stops.

Another random call from an unknown number. Ignored it.

Just as I was boarding a flight I saw an email reminding me that my Virgin Media contract ends in a month. On holiday I got 3 calls from 02037436972 which my caller ID flagged as likely spam. Since returning from holiday and contacting VM myself, no one has tried calling me again from this number.

reported 0203 743 6972 as Harassing
Lady called (5x), knew my name, asked for me. I asked 'who was calling?' and she hung up. Really poor comm skills and not who should be talking on the phones. My phone contract ended so could be the provider - I will never know.

reported 0203 743 6972 as Harassing
just keeps phoning every day

reported 0203 743 6972 as Harassing
This number has been calling on and off for a couple of months claiming to be Virgin Media and asking for answers to security questions, I couldn't possibly write on here my response, but it ended in off !!!!

reported 0203 743 6972 as Harassing
The caller hung up when I answered using a strong and 'younger' sounding voice when I said "hello".

reported 0203 743 6972 as Harassing
I received call yesterday. Because I am already with Virgin Media and my time was coming to upgrade. I upgraded for 18 months. They talked well and gave great discount. Lady spoke politely and I did receive email from Virgin Media for new package and broadband. So far so good.

reported 0203 743 6972 as Dangerous

No actual experience with the caller as I was warned by my mobile provider as "Likely Spam." I have the option to unblock them but given the comments here they can stay blocked.
