5 yearsIt's a dodgy operation from India, alright.India5 yearsI've had this number ring me a few times already. I picked up this morning and it was clearly some dodgy call centre. They claimed they'd sorted out a PPI claim for Black Horse Finance and needed to check my details before paying out. The bloke kept pressing for info, asked for my date of birth, and being a bit wary I gave him my late husband's instead. He just said that was alright. Then he wanted my sort code to confirm everything, and I just ended the call straight away.Black Horse Finance5 yearsI’ve seen quite a few bad reviews about 01165000255, saying it’s a bank scam. Better not pick up if you get a call from it.5 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be with Black Horse Finance, saying I'd won a claim or something. I told them I hadn’t made any claims and asked for their name and staff ID, but the person just kept going on about my postcode. Then they started getting rude and just hung up on me. I rang Black Horse Finance afterwards and they said it definitely wasn’t them calling.Black Horse Finance5 yearsI got a call from someone who said if I didn’t sign up for a funeral plan, they’d take £4,000 straight from my bank account. When I said I wasn’t interested, they got really angry and started threatening me, saying I had to agree or else a courier would come to my house today to snatch my bank cards. They claimed it was because I hadn’t answered some questions about missing PPI or something. I’m pretty sure it’s a scam but it’s really shaken me up and I’m not sure what to do next.5 yearsThis number has been ringing me daily throughout the week, yet they never bother to leave a message. Quite annoying, really!5 yearsI received a dodgy call about PPI from someone claiming to be with Black Horse. Definitely sounds like a scam!Black Horse5 yearsReceived a rather dubious call today from someone claiming to represent Black Horse Finance, insisting that I had secured a payout. When I requested his employee ID, he simply kept rambling on about a postcode before becoming quite aggressive and abruptly hanging up. I promptly reached out to Black Horse Finance for verification, and they assured me it wasn’t one of their representatives. They mentioned they would escalate the matter to a manager for further action. Quite the shocking experience!Black Horse Finance5 yearsBeware, total scammers!5 yearsI got a call from this number and it was a polite guy with an Asian accent pretending to be from my bank, trying to trick me into giving my account info.5 yearsCalls me at around quarter past three each day. Quite odd, really.5 yearsReceived a call claiming to be from a government-endorsed PPI refund service, and guess who’s struck gold? That’s right-me! And perhaps you too! They requested my postcode to facilitate the delivery of documents directly to my home. While they claim to be affiliated with the government, the moment I inquired about their legitimacy, their tone shifted drastically. They asked me, "How can you demonstrate that you’re not daft?" among other absurd remarks. Do yourself a favour and block this number; it’s the second time they’ve reached out. I only picked up as the call came from a Leicester number, and I have family in that area.Leicester5 yearsGave me a ring but didn’t bother to leave a voicemail.5 yearsCine m-a sunat? Se pare că a fost un apel de la PPI care a devenit tot mai popular.PPI5 yearsI’ve just had a call claiming to be from Black Horse about PPI, stating they owe me £3,500. They insisted I send a cheque right away. What a load of nonsense!Black HorseSubmit Your Own Report (0116 500 0255)
