One call, Sunday morning at 08:20. Gobbledygook message purporting to be from someone I last spoke to a couple of weeks ago. From investigation, I understand that calls are linked to BT accounts that have some form of call minding service. I have blocked the number but I won’t mention it to the lady concerned as she’s in her 80s and will only worry.

Called at 07:00 when I was hardly awake. Female voice with urgent tone giving 'security number' and other instructions which I did not take in, except that there was a message for me if I responded in 5 minutes. Since nobody has need to message me in this way I assumed it would be a scam attempt and ignored it.

I use a BT blocker on my phone and it doesn't ring unless the caller identifies himself. This number showed on my missed calls and was therefore an unidentified call.

Left a message saying 'somebody' had died - pretty low for a nuisance call. Never heard of the person anyway

In my case, it was legit! It was the pharmacy saying my prescription was ready, via a text service. Sounds garbled as it’s such a robotic voice, and they read out the sender’s number, first.

This number was already stored in my phone from them previously ringing me, they've rang me today around 4 times since this morning, if I don't recognise a number I Google it, if it's a scam I'm confused why number hasn't been shut down, either way if it's anyone important they know my email and my new job only has my mobile number anyway

I answered the phone to this number and it asked if I wanted to listen to the message. I was suspicious because none of my family or friends would have done that. I put the phone down before the call went any further.

I Never answer numbers that look weird...but so fed up with these time wasters. Telephone Preference Service is a complete waste of time as they need an address to proceed apparently. Can't something be done about these scammers?

Called my landline, leaving a recorded message about sms text messages, offering various options. 1471 gives the number 0333 3440000, which refers to website ... a2l ... . This is a French company based in Toulouse. Definitely seems to be something to be skeptical of. Pressing options suggested in recorded message not advised.
