Expert Opinion
Calls from this number often end abruptly, leaving recipients baffled and suspicious. Numerous reports highlight a pattern of callers posing as housing repair services, referencing fictional complaints or property damage to social housing tenants. Accents can be thick, making details hard to grasp, and conversations fizzle out when challenged. Scam tactics like these exploit trust in local authorities, but the inconsistencies scream fraud. Block the number immediately and report to your telecom provider or Action Fraud. Never share personal details; if it's legitimate, they'll contact via official channels. Staying vigilant nips these nuisances in the bud, saving hassle down the line.

Sounds like a cold call, yeah?
These callers are clearly scammers.
Picked up the call, got nothing back and it just dropped, cheers.
I called about a housing repair issue, but when I asked for details the line was disconnected.
I answered and the caller claimed to be from social housing following up a complaint; I told them I hadn’t filed any and wasn’t in social housing, which seemed to surprise her and the call ended.
Seems like a scam – the caller was downright rude, dialing in and hanging up as soon as I answered. Right?
Got a ring about arranging housing repairs for a property I supposedly lease from the council. When I asked, I gave the correct authority and postcode, and they confirmed. Cheers.
Calls keep coming from various London landlines; sometimes there’s silence when I answer, other times a different voice mentions unpaid repairs. Denying it results in an immediate hang‑up. I've blocked and reported the number, yet I anticipate more calls from similar digits.
Looks like a cold call – there’s no reason anyone in London would ring up without leaving a message, yeah.
Sounds like a scam.
A fellow claiming to be James tried to discuss ‘cracks’ in my property, but his heavy accent made him almost unintelligible, leaving me confused and repeatedly telling him I had no idea what he wanted before he hung up.
A housing‑repair scam.
Got an unexpected ring and didn’t answer, mate.
The number rang, and as soon as I picked up, the call was cut – clearly a scam.
