01183280301 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 01183280301 👆 is reported as a highly suspicious and persistent scam involving calls from this number where the caller claims there’s a large PPI refund or cheque owed, often quoting an identical amount around £3,600. Callers, frequently with Indian or Asian accents, say they're from supposed reclaim or accounts services and use personal details like your name and old addresses to sound convincing. They pressure victims to call back on the same or related numbers, sometimes referencing bogus loan claims or national insurance payouts. Many report poor English, unclear messages, and requests for fees or bank info. Multiple identities are used, including names like Nancy, Jessica or Peter. Victims advise blocking these numbers as the calls try to trick people into handing over sensitive details or money.
Reports on phone number 01183280301
6 yearsMy wife got a call on our landline from a bloke named Alan about some urgent PPI claim stuff. When she called 02086380975 back, some Indian guy answered and said they’d ring back. Then the return call came from 0118 328 0301. Sounds like classic PPI scam to me, so watch out for both these numbers!Alan6 yearsThis number has rung us quite a few times, and we've just been ignoring it. However, today I got a voicemail from them asking me to ring their customer service back on 01183280301. A young woman with really poor English claimed she knew my full name and said my claim against Barclays was successful with a refund of £2,439. I’ve never made any sort of claim like PPI, nor had a loan from that bank. The annoying part is my call blocker won’t let me block the number entirely. These calls really need to be put to an end.Barclays6 yearsGot a call from Michael on extension 219, which was just like all those other calls I've had. He said I was owed £3639, with £1200 in cash and the rest via cheque. Claimed it was about a PPI refund linked to a loan I supposedly took from Halifax in 2004. Complete nonsense as I never had any loan with them in the first place.MichaelHalifax6 yearsGot a call from 0118328031 about a PPI claim I supposedly filed. They told me the amount they’d recovered and gave me some reference numbers. I rang them back and they didn’t ask for any bank info. They said an official with ID would visit me at home with the money and a cheque, would check my ID and get me to sign for it. They’re asking for 11 per cent, £200 upfront on the day and another £200 after the cheque clears. I’m a bit suspicious but will wait and see what happens.6 yearssome bloke rang saying there’s a cheque from a national insurance thing for over £2000 waiting for me, like if that was true why wouldn’t they just post it to me straight away? so fishy!7 yearsGot a call off some bloke saying he's got a cheque sorted for me, then started trying to get my bank info. Total scam!7 yearsLoads of times I've got calls from 01183280301 saying there's some kind of refund waiting from a bank I supposedly put a claim in with. I got curious and rang them back tonight but just got a busy signal. Has anyone else tried calling them again? Wondering if anything actually comes of it.7 yearsSomeone rang me and said they had a cheque made out to my dad, but he's passed away. Quite a weird call, if you ask me.7 yearsI got a call from a woman named Nancy who told me I supposedly borrowed £5000 from Black Horse back in 2008. She mentioned they have a cheque for £2439 and £1200 in cash for interest. She also gave me a number, 01183280301, to call their accounts department about the repayment, along with some claim ID and reference number.NancyBlack Horse7 yearsI got a call from this number and they seemed to know my address and some personal info. They said I had a cheque waiting for £2439 from PPI and £1200 cash as interest, but said I had to call them back to sort it out. I figured they'd ask for my bank details to send the money, which felt really fishy. The guy called Peter sounded foreign, and I had to ask him to say everything again a couple of times because I couldn’t catch what he was saying. Definitely seemed a bit shady!Peter7 yearsGot a call from 0118 328 0301 today, but the number showed up as blocked. A guy with an Indian accent left a voicemail, but honestly, I could barely make out what he was saying. He said I should ring back tomorrow between 9am and 5pm on Extension 121. Felt a bit sketchy to me!7 yearsGot a call from someone saying their name was Nancy just yesterday, claiming I owed £2439 on a cheque. I’ve never had any PPI so I’m certain it’s a scam. Best to stay clear of these calls.Nancy7 yearsPicked up the phone and there was just silence on the other end! No one spoke at all!7 yearsGot a voicemail from someone saying I was due money from PIP or something like that, but the way they spoke was so confusing I couldn’t really make out what they were trying to say. Sounded a bit dodgy if you ask me.PIP7 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Asian accent, claiming there was some kind of loan from 2003 with Barclays, something about PPI I think. I'd never taken out any loan like that. I just hung up and blocked the number straight away.Barclays7 yearsThis call somehow slipped through our t#### filter. The caller claimed to be from some sort of Reclaim service, but the signal was really rubbish. They left a voicemail asking my wife to ring back on 0118 328 0301, giving an extension number too. They mentioned some money supposedly recovered from TSB, though the line was so bad I couldn't catch it properly. The bloke on the phone had an accent I couldn't quite identify and knew my wife's name. We haven't got in touch with them and now after reading this site, we'll be blocking the number straight away.ReclaimTSB7 yearsGot a call from 01183280301. She claimed I was owed some money from a Lloyds loan back in 2009, about £3,639. Sounds like a total scam to me. The woman called Nancy is definitely up to no good.LloydsNancy7 yearsSome scammer rang me, i let it go on for about six rings since i wasn’t quick enough to pick up. Luckily, I decided to look it up and checked the number before my mum could answer it. Glad i did!7 yearsgot a call from someone called nancy telling me i was owed £3639 ppi, split as £2439 by cheque and £1200 in cash. she said to just call accounts on that very number to claim it. i never had any ppi, so pretty sure this is a scam.Nancy7 yearsGot a call from a woman who sounded Indian, but her accent and the poor connection made it really hard to catch what she was saying. Somehow she got past our sky blocker setup. She mentioned there’s a payout of over £2,000 in a PPI claim waiting for me and told me to ring back, gave an extension but I couldn’t make it out properly. Not 100% sure if it’s a scam, since we do have some PPI claims in progress.Sky7 yearsGot a call again from this number, its the third time now. They keep saying I’ve got a cheque for PPI to collect, even gave some company name but I’m sure it’s all rubbish. I’ve blocked the number now. What really bugs me is how they got my landline since it’s ex-directory. I’d tell everyone to block it too, but watch out cause they ring from loads of different numbers.7 yearsJust like others have said, I got a call from someone named Jessica saying I was owed £3639. This kind of scam has been going on forever now. Be careful out there!Jessica7 yearsGot a call saying I was due a cheque for loads of pounds, but it felt like a scam just to get me to ring them back.7 yearsGot a call from a woman who spoke with an Indian accent, said her name was Jesicca and she was from Reclaim Services. She claimed there was a PPI refund from Halifax for £3639, mentioning both cheque and cash. She asked me to ring 01183280301 and speak to the accounts dept. It all felt a bit fishy, so I haven't bothered calling back... at least not yet!JessicaReclaim ServicesHalifax7 yearsGot a call about some PPI refund from Lloyds, offering around £3639 in cheque and cash. They gave me a number meant to be from Bristol, but the dialling code matches Reading instead. Feels dodgy, like a scam to me. No way I’m ringing that number.LloydsBristolReading7 yearsGot a call about some PPI thing from RS, sounded a bit dodgy if you ask me. Felt like one of those scams trying to get your info. Be careful with that kind of stuff!RS7 yearsNot sure if he was for real. Got a call from a man speaking with an Indian accent, said I had to ring back about some PPI refund. Funny thing is, he gave me the exact same sum as the one mentioned earlier - £3639, said it’d be paid partly by cheque and partly in cash. Sounded fishy to me.7 yearsI reckon this might be one of those scam calls.7 yearsI got a call from a woman speaking with an Indian accent, saying she was from a firm named Reclaim Services. She told me I was owed a PPI refund of £3639, part of which would come as a cheque and the rest in cash. When I asked a bit more, she got all nervous and kept telling me to hang up and call back, asking for the accounts department. Seems dodgy to me, probably a trick to get my bank info for the cash refund. I’ve never come across this company or had any dealings with them before. Total scam in my opinion.Reclaims Services7 yearsGot a voicemail from some bloke called Fady with an Indian or Pakistani accent. He said there’s a cheque waiting in my cousin’s name or something. We couldn’t really hear what company he was from, but he told her to ring back because they need to check some details. Bit odd, really.7 yearsI got a voicemail sayin I’ve got £2700 from PPI, but ive never asked about any PPI so it’s got to be a scam. No real company would ever reach out like that, it just doesnt seem legit at all.Submit Your Own Report (0118 328 0301)
