Cambridgeshire Constabulary
Cambridgeshire Constabulary's Action Fraud line is a vital resource for reporting non-emergency crimes and incidents within the region. Callers can report non-urgent incidents, make general enquiries about policing services, or provide anonymous crime tips. The line is operational 24/7 for crime reports, though general enquiries are addressed only during specific operating hours. Wait times can sometimes be long, particularly during peak periods or significant incidents, so calling during off-peak hours might be more efficient. For those unable to speak directly, textphone or SMS services are available to accommodate users with hearing or speech impairments.

Known issues
There are occasional reports of long wait times, especially during peak periods or major local incidents. To mitigate this, it's recommended to place calls during less busy times or explore online alternatives for quicker access to services. Additionally, administrative and non-urgent queries might not receive full support outside standard office hours. Using online forms or calling back during regular hours is advisable. For those looking to report anonymously, Crimestoppers offers a 24/7 service.
