I also received a call from this number, claiming that our details had been passed on to them, offering assistance in tracing a £2000 loan we never even sought. I’m absolutely bewildered, as I've never expressed any interest in such a thing. It’s infuriating that they've somehow acquired my mobile number; I'm usually quite strict about who I share it with. Utterly revolting. What a bunch of unscrupulous individuals!

Received a text message on the twentieth of August regarding ADV loans, claiming that our application for £2,000 has been provisionally accepted. We never made such an application, yet it appears these folks are quite prolific. It's high time something is done to put a stop to their activities!

I recently received a text purporting to be from ADV Loans, claiming that my loan application had been approved. Curious, I rang the number (01202) and inquired about how they acquired my contact details and where their offices were located. To my surprise, they hung up on me! Shortly after, I received an email from CGS, reiterating that my loan had been approved, provided I forked over £49.95. Just when I thought it couldn't get weirder, I received yet another text, this time from CGS Loans, with the same details as before. It turns out both ADV and CGS are just trading names for Post Net Ltd. The website they provided was w. cgscredits. co, and they listed their address as PO Box 4002, Poole BH14 0BF, in the United Kingdom. I strongly advise steering clear of this company!

Once more, I received a text claiming that I’d been approved for a £2000 loan. Naturally, I called them using our home phone to clarify the situation. The chap I spoke to clearly understood my concerns when I explained we hadn’t applied for any loans. He offered reassurance, stating he would promptly remove all our details from their records. Rather dodgy if you ask me!

Alright, everyone! I stumbled across this discussion while I was wandering about online. I represent the company that operates Advantage Loans. If you’ve received those text messages you've mentioned, it’s likely because another organisation has shared your details with us, indicating that you’re inquiring about a loan. If you’d rather not receive any more marketing communications, you can either give Advantage a call using the number provided in the message or get in touch with us directly via email or private message. You can reach me at [email protected]. Cheers!

Received a couple of texts regarding some ADV loans, claiming our application for a loan has been greenlit. They suggested we give them a call before 2pm, but honestly, we’d rather have a credit card instead. To top it off, they've managed to misname us as Vincent. Absolute muppets!

I just received a call from this number claiming our loan has been approved. However, I'm left scratching my head about which loan they're on about. Has anyone got any clue who's behind this?

These individuals are definitely up to no good. They've somehow obtained your personal details from some sort of database. We've never sought out credit nor do we ever plan to.

Received an SMS from ADV loans on the 20th of August, claiming our application for £2,000 has been tentatively accepted. The kicker? We’ve never even applied for such a thing! Seems like these jokers are rather active in their unsolicited pursuits. They really ought to be put a stop to!

Received a rather curious text about loans not too long ago. It read something like: “Hello Hay CLaire, your contact information has been shared with us, and we’re here to assist you in securing your £2000. Do give us a bell before 7 this evening at 010202629222.” Quite the cheeky message, if you ask me!

My brother has been incessantly hounded by this company, claiming he's qualified for a £2000 loan. They persistently ring him up using the wrong name, and despite his firm refusals, they show no signs of letting up! It's absolutely unacceptable that this company is still allowed to function. They really ought to be shut down without delay!

We've received a text from this company regarding a supposedly approved loan of £2000 for my missus. We decided to give them a ring earlier today to ask for their address, but they flatly refused to disclose it, citing 'data protection' concerns. This raises some serious red flags, as it feels like they’re hiding something. We’re planning to lodge a formal complaint since they seem to be violating data protection regulations. Just to clarify, we never applied for any loan at all. It appears this outfit might have connections to YES Finance and is based in Poole. We've also reached out to our local trading standards. Whatever you do, steer clear of this company and keep your personal details to yourself!

We received a rather dubious text from ADV loans claiming that a £2000 loan had been approved for someone named Ronnie Johnson (not myself, mind you). It appears these individuals have altered their contact number to 01202 629218. Quite the odd situation!

I’ve just received a text from ADV Loans claiming that our request for a £2000 loan has been tentatively accepted, even though we’ve never applied for anything of the sort. To make matters worse, this message was sent to my fiancé's phone, which could have led to unnecessary complications. I'm truly appalled that a company like this is permitted to operate in such a dodgy fashion!

I recently received a rather dubious text from ADV loans indicating that our request for a £20 loan has been tentatively accepted, despite the fact that we never sought such a loan. To make matters worse, the message was sent to my fiancé's phone, which could have led to all sorts of complications. It's utterly frustrating that companies like this are permitted to operate in such a careless way.

I received a text message from ADV Loans touting that a £2000 loan had been authorised and urging me to get in touch with them. Considering the rampant issue of identity fraud these days, I find this approach to unsolicited communication rather dodgy. It sparked quite a bit of worry on my end, especially since I haven't even inquired about a loan. Honestly, this company ought to be put out of business immediately.

Even though we've never sought a loan, we seem to be inundated with numerous texts regarding ADV loans. Does anyone have suggestions on how to put a stop to these annoying messages?

I recently received a text message from a number that’s a bit different, 01202 629 630, yet it’s filled with the same old drivel. A few weeks back, I got another message claiming to be from a vehicle loan company, and I swiftly deleted that one without a second thought. It’s curious, though, as it appears to be the same crowd behind both messages, given the striking similarity in the content.

My partner received a message saying we were pre-approved for a £2000 loan, which is rather puzzling since we've neither applied for a loan nor do we have any intention of doing so. It ended up causing us a bit of a sleepless night, as I had to calm my partner's worries about the whole loan business. On a brighter note, I found this service quite useful; I checked another number that has been bothering my partner for ages, and it turns out those nuisances were listed here as well. Much appreciated!
