In the UK we have it, but not as bad as in the US. In Germany we don't seem to have it at all


Can confirm. From Germany, have the same number for 15+ years, basically any provider has this number and probably leaked it at some time. Still no spam at all. I think there are heavy penalties for that in Germany.


In the Czech Republic I get like one spam call per year, and it’s usually semi-relevant (carrier, bank, insurance), virtually zero scams or blind marketing calls.

Same phone number for 17 years, dozens and dozens of companies have seen it.
