WILTSHIRE Police have revealed that someone called 999 to report that 'my crisps are out of date'.
Starting today for two weeks, the police are revealing a full insight into some of the calls they receive.
So far they have revealed two of the calls they have received.
The first call they revealed they received on 101 said 'I don't need an ambulance but...'
#whoyougonnacall Many people call 101 thinking it is a tri-service non-emergency number. 101 is only for the police.

#whoyougonnacall If you are not-satisfied with the quality of a product or service, you need to direct your complaint to the retailer.
