Hal s reply is spot on. If someone sends a text message to your landline and you don t pick up the phone it gets stored for you to retrieve later. This 0795 number is where you collect the message, plus the number of the mobile phone that sent the text. It s not dangerous. All depends on what the text message says, of course - that could be anything. In my case it was someone texting to say Sorry I Missed Your Call. See? Not dangerous.

don t speak silent, or they ask about debts

Number is only ten digits, too short to be a valid UK number.

Ascot

Natasha from "Excellent Advice" company regarding a car accident. Might not be a person, sounded automated voice response. Hung up when I asked for company details.

I didn t recognise the number, so didn t answer. They didn t leave a message, so, obviously NOT important. Probably (yet again) another con/scam.

Ignore it, it s a scam. Call barring services are usually free (if your provider does charge for it, they include it in your bill).

Cold Call - Motor Traffic Ambulance Chasers

Asian man, from Switch and Save asked for my other half to reduce the phone and broadband costs! Yeah right!Hung up when I challenged him and called him a scammer!Idiots!

After being scammed before are very wary of cold calls and scams. However, this one was picked up without really looking or thinking but I must say this seems a dangerous one because this did sound almost genuine with (as above, claiming to be HMRC). In our case, the line just went dead after it told us to press one to speak to an officer. This is one that could catch unexpecting people out so be careful! We keep it as rule that if in any doubt, ONLY answer numbers that are 0800 or gov numbers (030) unless

The person calling from this number was clearly ringing from a call centre and had an Asian name which I didn t catch. He stated that the company name was MTA Solicitors and that he was calling about a recent car accident. This is clearly a scam call as I have not had a car accident.

Utility company trying to get you to have smart meters and to change gas and electric companies. Will not take no as your answer. Calls several times a day.

Call from 01314414605 Asian male saying he was from Virgin Media Technical Department and my internet speed was sending warning messages and not running correctly. Was asked to do a speed test and download an app. He was adamant he was from Virgin Media although he could not give any of my details to me. Needless to say I hung up. Called Virgin Media who did a test down the line which did not show up any problems.
