Three issue - receiving random calls (network issue)

Anyone else getting random calls from a variety of numbers, when I answer the call then it disconnects.

Think they have some network issues, but annoying as its random numbers (had over 10 in a minute) and think others are getting the same, as my wife who is also on Three just got a call back from someone random and got abuse asking why she rang her when she didn't.

    These may be junk/scam calls.  Just don't answer any numbers you don't recognise.  Numbers on the screen can be spoofed and there is a small chance it may match a live number.

    This is not unique to Three.

    Having similar issues with random calls this evening - feels like network problem as numbers are all different and unknown - about 5-10 in last hour

    Three stating on Twitter that that this is a network issue. People reporting multiple random calls and calls being made from their number. Seems like a major mess up.
