Hi @Julie2541
Welcome to the community.
I'm sorry to hear that you're having problems with receiving a lot of these calls. There is some helpful information on our Online Security: How to Block Unwanted Calls and Texts page. Hopefully, the steps on there help reduce these calls.

Out of interest, what do you expect a telecoms operator to do, to stop scammers trading the numbers of people who answer their calls?

@Julie2541 Why are you putting your number on social media? Your number isn’t visible unless you allow it or make it available.
Register your number with the TPS service HERE

Cheerios what I wrote is from Google lol. My number is totally private and I do not put it or share it. The only people that know it are those I choose to give it to. Like my family, friends and hospital.
