M
Moncada
Spam

This number belongs to VIP Home Services, who appears to be engaging in cold calling like many others.

G
Giddings
Suspicious

I listened to the voicemail from this number multiple times but still couldn’t decipher what they were saying. The only word that stood out to me was “VIP.” It seems that their messages are intentionally unclear and untranslatable to text.

W
Walley
Uncertain

The caller left a voicemail that consisted solely of background noise typical of a call center, with no one actually speaking.

C
Chui
Suspicious

I received a missed call at 9:03 AM. They left a voicemail that was unintelligible except for a strange noise, which sounded like a fart, before they hung up. This may be a prank or scam call.

M
Macbeth
Spam

This number is trying to sell carpet and upholstery cleaning services. It's extremely annoying. If I need this type of service, I prefer to choose my own provider. I told them thanks but no thanks and hung up.

E
Eggleton
Spam

I foolishly answered a call from a lady with a heavy accent who said she was from VIP Carpet Cleaning. She addressed me by name and claimed to be a customer, although I don't recall ever using their service. She continued to call me non-stop for over a week before I finally blocked the number. If this is how the company operates (if it's legitimate), I have no interest in using their services.

B
Bastian
Suspicious

I answered this call because it was from my area, but there was no one on the line. It was just another annoying waste of time.

M
Midgley
Uncertain

The caller left a message that was polite and easy to understand, but I have indicated on my MessageBank that I do not want to receive messages, as I generally never listen to them.

G
Garraway
Spam

They left a message while I was unable to answer, but I couldn't understand what they were trying to convey in the voicemail. It was unclear and difficult to follow.

R
Regina
Scam

This number called me on June 13 and again today on August 10. They didn't leave a message on either occasion. Based on prior reports, it seems they change their reasons for calling frequently and could be up to anything.

H
Hoggard
Suspicious

I received a call from this number but chose not to answer. The voicemail left said, "This message could not be converted to text," which is unusual because most telemarketers typically leave clear messages. This raises concerns about the nature of the call.

H
Holloman
Suspicious

A call from this number went to voicemail on my landline without them leaving a message. After checking the caller ID, I found valuable information in previous reports about this number. I have never used VIP for anything other than lawn care services.

H
Hamilton
Spam

I am frustrated by how businesses manage to bypass no-call regulations. If I need to contact a business, I will call them myself—there's no need for them to pester me!

B
Brymer
Suspicious

I am concerned about how this caller obtained my first and last name. I have never used VIO or provided my personal information on their website. This raises serious privacy breach issues.

R
Rak
Legit

The call was from a telemarketer offering various services. I politely declined and said I might be interested in the future, requesting a callback later in the year. My prior experience with them was positive, so I believe it was legitimate.

B
Beggs
Suspicious

A male caller with an Indian accent claimed he was from "VIP" and asked me, "Do you remember me?" I do not recognize this person, so I blocked the number to prevent further contact.

M
Marino
Spam

I received a call from a company called VIP Carpet Cleaning, and they addressed me by my name. After declining their service, I chose to hang up.

M
Money
Spam

The caller addressed me by my name and attempted to sell me carpet and upholstery cleaning services. However, I couldn't clearly understand the name of the company they claimed to represent, and I have decided not to engage with them further.

B
Burrell
Suspicious

I received a voicemail where the caller addressed me by my first name, which made me feel uneasy since I don't know them. They offered a 30% discount on something and asked me to call back. I chose not to return the call.

T
Treat
Spam

I received a call from this number that left a message advertising their rug and carpet cleaning services. They followed up with a text message, referred to me by name, which made me uncomfortable. I decided to block this caller due to their unsolicited contact.

N
Newsham
Suspicious

A man with an Indian accent called, claiming to be from a cleaning company (I cannot recall the name). He asked for me by name. I did have an Indian cleaner a year ago, which made the call seem plausible. However, I was not interested, so I politely cut him off, said goodbye, and hung up.

A

Spam

Said they were calling from Vip carpet cleaning services. I’m on the do not call registry and it’s ANZAC Day.

B
Bartram
Spam

I got a call from a heavily accented Asian woman trying to sell me carpet and cleaning services. She knew my first name, which was concerning since I rarely share my mobile number.
