7 yearsI was waiting on a call about my relative's health when this number kept ringing me like 9 times in under half an hour. Honestly, it was so frustrating and felt like straight-up harassment.7 yearsA while back, I had a chat with this girl Kaitlin who sorted everything out for me. She was proper helpful, I gotta say. Even though i'm not convinced about the music licence myself, I went ahead and got it because she was so friendly and explained why it was necessary in a way I actually got.Kaitlin7 yearsGot a call from someone saying they’re with a rights organisation and trying to sell music licences to my small shop. Sounded a bit dodgy to me.7 yearsHonestly, if you haven't noticed yet, the nice reviews are pretty obviously posted by the company folks. I mean, who talks like that for real? If you believe those, maybe think about getting some help or something.7 yearsI told them our hold music is fully licensed and even gave them the licence number, but they still ring us multiple times every day, which is such a waste of our time.7 yearsThey said it was pplprs Ltd or something like that. I told them I work from home so I don’t need a licence or whatever, asked them to stop bugging me and wasting money on calls instead of giving it to proper artists. Honestly, not sure if it wasn’t just a scam. Some of those good reviews up there seem a bit suspicious too, if you ask me.pplprs Ltd7 yearsDuring the Christmas period, I kept receiving annoying calls. When I tried to talk to the manager about it, someone called Jodie, she said she was too busy to chat. I was told the business never plays music, even though I was accused of fibbing because they did have a radio in the kitchen a few years back. Every time I attempt to raise a complaint, the managers say they don’t have the time and just tell me to ring back. Quite frustrating!Jodie7 yearsThese music licensing firms are just after their cut whenever they bill a business! That’s why they’re always so aggressive and end up sending invoices without even checking with the actual owner first!!!7 yearsThis number rang me about some music licence thing, and the lady immediately started asking for my name and where I live. I just work here, I’m not sure why they wanted my details. Watch out, seems a bit dodgy.7 yearsGot a call from this number about some music licence. The lady started asking for my name and where I live. I just told her I only work here and don't have that info. Watch out, they might try to get your details!8 yearsI got a call from a woman named Ocean. I wasn’t familiar with this PPLPRS organisation, not heard of them before and I’ve had my office radio for ages. She was quite patient though, explaining everything clearly and giving me time to check things out. After I understood it was something I needed, she walked me through the whole process over the phone and sorted my licence in about 20 minutes. Really pleased with how she answered my questions and managed the whole thing.Ocean8 yearsThis number keeps calling me, not sure who it is.8 yearsI've told them when's the right time to get hold of the business owner, but they just keep ringing up at all hours, even on a Saturday! It's really annoying. If they keep going on like this, I'm definitely going to report them for harassment.8 yearsI had a chat with a really nice young lady who helped me sort out my music licence. I wasn’t familiar with PPL PRS at all, but after a bit of digging online, I found out it’s something I definitely need. Totally recommend checking it out if you're unsure!8 yearsI was a bit unsure about PPL PRS initially since I didn’t realise you actually need a licence to play music in a commercial setting. After doing some digging, it turns out everything is above board. I did wonder why they phoned me from a different number than the one on their site, but apparently that’s because they’re from a separate division than the usual customer service team.8 yearsHeads up, this isn’t PPL PRS at all. I rang them myself and they confirmed the number isn’t linked to their business. It’s actually another company trying to push you into buying a music licence, even if you don’t really need one. They try to make the call seem really urgent to scare you into agreeing. Just be careful, don’t get caught out and try not to answer their questions.8 yearsThis number won’t stop ringing my phone! Took a look at their Google reviews and it’s not looking good at all.Google8 yearsSo this number rang me last week asking if I had music playing in my little coffee shop. I told them I mostly stick to the radio. They then went on about PPLPRS and said I’d need a licence to play music there, explaining how the fees are actually used. They made it clear it’s the law as well, so I was quite happy to sort it out. The whole thing didn’t take long, maybe 10 minutes tops on the phone.8 yearsThis woman calls me like eight times a day, always going on about needing a music licence even tho we don’t even own a radio. It gets really annoying.8 yearsThis number rang me up and it was from PPLPRS, the folks who manage music licensing in the UK. At first, I didn't really know much about that kind of licence, but someone there took the time to clearly explain everything. It was a bit surprising, but turns out they're a genuine company and very helpful too!PPLPRSUK8 yearsA couple of weeks ago got a call from this number - 01162961403 - about my business licence, just checking if I was completely legit. They really made it simple to sort everything out on the phone, and were pretty helpful with all my questions. Ended up getting the licence sorted without much hassle :)8 yearsA proper call from PPL PRS Itd about music licensing for businesses - its mandatory here in the UK by law.PPL PRS LtdUKSubmit Your Own Report (0116 296 1403)
