Okay, so I get a phone call at 4.08pm. 

Number starts with 01267. 

Was in the middle of getting my daughter dressed after her swim lesson.
phone rang a few times I paused answered with the phrase .. and the phone went dead.
what’s the chances this was Kiss and I just missed out on 50k? 

Feel sick. 😩

You never know … 🙈

Probably 0%, I think their numbers are London ones but in any case, I think they would phone from a withheld number for this.

When they called me, it wasn’t from a withheld number …

Hi Namdera, are you able to ring that 01267 number or even google the number to see any google search results for this number. 

Namdera

I have googled it, it says that it’s possibly a scam number but if they use a number changer they could call from any number! 

Alex what number did they call you from? Did you win?

Sorry, I didn’t keep the number … I seem to remember it starting 012 or 02. It definitely wasn’t withheld, otherwise I wouldn’t have answered it back then.
Yes I did, £’s in bank same day …

Thanks Alex, I probably will never be lucky enough to get the call but I just assumed it would be from a no caller id number. Best to stay alert then and any call after a comp cut off time that requires a phrase first, I need to remember answer with phrase no matter who is ringing if I do not recognise the number as one of my saved contacts 

Namdera

I’m really hoping it wasn’t them and I haven’t missed out on £50k. 

Congratulations on your win Alex was this recent?

My first was before these had become so regular, the second was from a withheld number, but a different station & comp. … perhaps they’ve changed their MO & call from withheld now …
