I've had the same as everyone else, bad line, Indian speaking person, however I have blocked the number 01224 084748, only to start receiving calls from other numbers 01224 084750 & 01224 084755, Looks like the have a monopoly on the 0847XX? number, so you may want to block these too.

Sounded like a Indian person rude when I said don’t do survey put the phone down and blocked the number,he just rang bank with last digit 9 instead of The 8
Asking for me to take part in a survey to do with being a homeowner when I said I'm not a homeowner.She said oh no it's anyone that lives inside the UK, it only takes 60 seconds 5 questions. I said I don't have 60 seconds Im busy she then carried on talking And told them to remove my number. The number then proceeded to call me back 3 hours later.To which I answered and said if you do not stop ringing this number I will take action, She quickly ended the call and i've blocked the number.
Asked me questions about the newspaper and my age and renting status. The line was bad so I hung up because I couldn’t hear. Not a Scottish accent
Struggled to understand him but was a survey. Asked if I read a morning newspaper. I hung up.
Never answer numbers I don’t recognise. No message left so don’t know who it was but reading what other people have said it doesn’t sound great. Will be blocking this number.
I called the number back and it said (something) Disrepair Team. No idea who it was or what it could be for so can only assume spam / scam call.
Dodgy sounding f*cker, so hung up.
I answered and it wasn’t a Scottish accent sounded from India so hung up and blocked the number. Definitely not from Aberdeen!
Said they were Scarlet from UK Harvest I think, although hard to understand the caller Knew my name Sounded dodgy to me so hung up and blocked it
