5 yearsLooks like some scam from India. Be careful with calls like this.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 week, they've rang me daily but never bothered to leave a message.5 yearsJust got a dodgy call about some PPI from Black Horse, total scam alert!Black Horse5 yearsGot a call earlier from someone claiming to be with Black Horse Finance saying I’d won some kind of claim. I asked for his employee ID but instead of answering, he just kept saying a postcode over and over. Then he started getting really rude and hung up on me. Rang up Black Horse Finance afterwards and they told me it wasn’t them and they’d report the number to their manager.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 yearsThey call me around 3:25 pm every single day. Bit odd, to be honest.5 yearsGot a call claiming I’d won some government supported PPI payout, and it was meant to be me - and maybe you too! They wanted my postcode so they could supposedly send me the paperwork in person. They insisted it was government backed, but when I asked for proof, the tone shifted and they started being rude, saying things like “how do you know you ain’t daft?” and other weird stuff. This was the second time they’d rung me, so I’ve blocked the number now. I probably wouldn’t have picked up if they hadn’t called from a Leicester area code - got family there, so it seemed legit.Leicester5 yearsI rung but didn’t leave a voicemail.5 yearsAm primit un apel de la cineva care spunea că e un trend de la ppi, dar nu mi-a zis cine e. Cine stie ce poate fi?PPI5 yearsGot a call from someone claiming it's about black horse ppi, said I owed £3,500 or something and asked me to send a cheque. Surely a scam!Black HorseSubmit Your Own Report (0116 500 0255)
