Asking about my Covid status then lead to insurance information - could sense it was a scam, but she was quite pleasant at first so let her speak in case it wasn’t and I always figure nobody aspires to be a cold caller so I don’t like to be rude to people. After I said I had insurance through work the woman quite aggressively pushed me to give her a number about how much I pay a month, I truthfully said I don’t know as it’s part of my work package she pushed me over and over to give her an estimate - I don’t know! Eventually I asked why exactly it was important, she said as it would be added to a letter to update me from the nhs and to receive my Covid vaccine certificates - I noted that don’t know why the NHS needs to tell me about my insurance status and I already have my vaccine certificate. At this point she got venomous, informed me she was going to put X amount and tied up the call.

Asian man just rung me and claimed that is calling from NHS and asked "have you had your both jabs?" I've asked "why should I speak to you about it? Then he abused me, told me to die and put his frustration with f words at the end and he hung up.
Said he was calling about the covid jabs and reactions. Then asked about insurance. He said he was calling from Manchester but the number is Clacton on Sea. Beware scam caller.
Just got a call from this number. Difficult to understand him. Said he worked for the NHS. Asked about my CoVID jabs etc then eventually turned the conversation to Life Insurance cover at which point, his cover had been blown. Tried to string him along for a while but he hung up on me lol - some people have no manners eh :-).
Asian man claiming to be NHS, asking about COVID vaccines then asking who my life insurance is with - no details given obviously a scam.
Just had a call from this number in Clacton at 12:17 am 15/11/21 Didn't bother answering. Number now blocked
Ignored and blocked based on the other testimonials. Thanks folks!
Do not give details, asking about life insurance. Scam!
I got this call 10mins ago, I didn't answer my phone (mobile) because I if I don't know the number and they don't leave a message, but I always check them out. I got a call last week from 01279 354437.8th November 11,05am All details as above calls An obviously Asian man calling himself "Jason" said he was from the NHS, wanted to know if I had my COVD jabs and other questions about my health, if I had life insurance, private health insurance etc. He assured me he wasn't trying to sell me anything. I told him that anyone who needed to know my health details already had them and it was none of his business so I was ending the call. I did not answer todays call , but 141'd it the number today was 01255879555 at 11.15 am,
They had all my correct information and was asking me to verify but I did because at the exact same time I got a text message from NHS so thought it might have been real. But I think it was a scam looking back but they had all the correct information for me!! Worrying.

Claiming to be from the NHS. Worryingly this will be an attempt to scam vulnerable people - just hang up and block.
An asian gentleman!! Called to discuss whether your Covid jabs are up to date and then tries to sell you life insurance. Probably just wants you to give him some confidential info. I told him quickly that I thought he was "full of S**T" and a scam and he got very abusive. Lots of F words and told me that I was going to be prosecuted for being abusive to an NHS worker and that I was abusing him. The sheer gall of these low lives is amazing. Being accused of being abusive by an individual makes a living by scamming the elderly and the gullible out of their savings is amazing.
The call finished as soon as I answered.
"COVID 19 Health check line" apparently....
