I've received several missed calls from this number, and to be honest, they shouldn’t have my contact details at all. I've gone ahead and blocked them now.

I've received another call from this number for the second time in just two days. I'm fairly certain it's some sort of firm involved in matters like PPI claims. Consequently, I've decided to inform them that I only use my phone for emergency situations.

I received a rather peculiar phone call today, where the person on the other end inquired about someone I’m acquainted with-though bafflingly, that individual has absolutely no connection to this number. Quite suspicious, wouldn’t you say? I’m convinced this is definitely a scam.

Gave me a ring earlier today and I picked up the call. All I got on the line was a robotic voice saying, "You are now being connected to one of our clients." Quite odd, really!

I just got a call from that particular number, and the caller claimed they had a PPI refund waiting for me. I pointed out that I’ve never taken out any loans or mortgages, and then they abruptly terminated the call. It leaves me scratching my head about how they managed to obtain my details.

I've been receiving incessant missed calls from this number. It barely rings a handful of times before it cuts off, leaving me puzzled. Whoever's on the other end clearly has no business ringing my phone, especially since my number is logged with the Telephone Preference Service!

I just received a rather dodgy call. Opted not to answer but let it ring through. After about half a minute, a chap on the other end mentioned my name and claimed I might be entitled to a refund for some finance I supposedly took out prior to 2012. Curious, I asked him the details of this finance, but he said he didn’t have that information at hand. When I pointed out that he had just claimed I had finance with them, he suddenly backtracked, insisting he hadn’t said that at all. Quite amusing really, as I was paying very close attention. I told him to try his luck with someone else and promptly ended the call. I've been inundated with such calls recently - feels as if my number is now in the hands of all and sundry...

I received a rather peculiar phone call informing me that they had a cheque on hand for a PPI policy repayment. However, I informed them that I had already settled this matter last year and received my payment. Strangely enough, they abruptly ended the call! How odd, isn't it?

Suggest that they should return the call but use another number instead-perhaps one from a nearby phone kiosk! If they happen to ring on your usual number, it would be a good idea to simply hang up the call.

This is the very first time I’ve received a call from this particular number. They claim to be located in Birmingham. When I picked up, there was an eerie silence initially, followed by a robotic voice announcing, “You’re being connected to an agent now,” and then it beeped a couple of times before hanging up. I haven’t a clue who they are, but if they ring me again, I’ll be giving it a wide berth!

I got a call from the number 01212701173 on the 27th of May, 2014. A bloke on the other end inquired about my name, but when I pressed for his identity, he abruptly hung up. It’s quite concerning, as it seems several others have experienced similar calls where they’re asked their name only to be met with silence when they seek details. It might be wise for the authorities to look into this number, given the alarming pattern that’s emerging.

This morning, I received a rather peculiar phone call informing me that I had allegedly overpaid on a hire purchase agreement dating back to 2011. When I pointed out that I had never engaged in hire purchase, the young lady on the line suddenly seemed to be devoid of any relevant details. I can’t help but think it was only a matter of time before they would have requested my bank information for a refund. I can’t shake the eerie feeling that this might be linked to the recent security breach at eBay. It’s rather unsettling that they already knew my name!

I keep getting calls from this number, and I’m absolutely baffled! I’ve been inundated with calls from various loan companies as well, and I can't for the life of me figure out how they’ve managed to obtain my number! It’s all quite vexing, to say the least!
12 years
I had a rather peculiar phone call today, in which the caller claimed to be addressing an overpayment issue from way back in 2011. When they asked me to verify my identity by naming a loan provider from recent years, I informed them that I’d never borrowed any money. The moment I uttered those words, they promptly thanked me and hung up. It felt like a complete con, as if they assume everyone is naive! Oddly enough, they addressed me by name, which I found unsettling. I strongly recommend not engaging with this number. I've gone ahead and blocked it myself!

I've been receiving calls from this number several times nearly every day. They never leave a message and I don’t bother answering. It's just becoming a right pain! I haven’t the foggiest who it is or what they want from me. Honestly, I just wish they’d give it a rest.

Had a phone call from this number earlier but chose to let it ring out. After perusing the comments, I’m fairly convinced it’s a scam! I reckon if you don’t engage, they’ll eventually stop ringing you.

Should you ever find yourself picking up a call that seems dodgy, I suggest simply putting your phone away for a moment. Treat yourself to a nice cuppa or a refreshing beverage, and let the caller have their little monologue. Once they’ve disconnected, make sure to save that number in your contacts as ‘SCAM’. That way, if they happen to ring you again, you can easily ignore it, knowing full well it’s just another attempt to bamboozle you.

I just had a rather baffling experience with a call from that very number today. They were inquiring about a car finance loan from way back in 2011! I was utterly flabbergasted to learn how they managed to obtain my name and number. What made it even more amusing is the fact that I don't even drive and have actually been living in a different country since 2014. Quite the predicament! Just decided to brush it off, really.

Had a surprise call from this number bright and early at 7 this morning, which didn't exactly please me. I highly doubt they'll give me another ring.

I've had a few calls from that number, and when I rang back, they wanted to know my name and address right off the bat. Then, out of the blue, they claimed I was being overcharged for a loan taken out back in 2011 - mind you, I've been living in the UK since 2013! Just as I was about to ask more questions, the chap suddenly said “okay” and hung up. Now I'm quite worried, as I've inadvertently shared my phone number and an address with them. Could this lead to any trouble for me?

I received a call from this number but didn’t pick up. Curious, I decided to ring back using a different phone. Turns out, it was a call centre line. I mentioned I had missed a call, and the agent proceeded to ask for my name and number. I opted not to share any details and instead quizzed him on whether he had ever taken out a loan, then launched into the typical sales pitch. He promptly ended the call!

I had a rather dubious call from this number, claiming they were sorting out some funds owed to me from a loan I supposedly took out. Absolute nonsense, if you ask me! When I told him I had never dealt with anything of the sort, he promptly ended the call without so much as a parting word. Quite rude, really. How on earth did they even get hold of my number? If only I had a clue on how to shut these blokes down!

I just received a rather dubious call suggesting that I was being charged excessively for a loan I supposedly secured way back in 2011. The problem is, I didn't even take out a loan during that period! Naturally, I inquired about where they got their information from, and they casually mentioned the Financial Authority. As if every single country has one of those! I politely expressed my disbelief and voiced my suspicion that they might be running a scam. To which he simply retorted, "Well, this chat isn't fruitful, let’s end it." In short: this discussion is definitely going nowhere. Scam verified, without a doubt!

What a right farce! This number rang me about four times before I finally picked up. They were after all sorts of details regarding a loan I’ve never even applied for. Funny thing is, when I asked them for specific dates or details, they kept saying, “Can’t pull up your data.” So, let me get this straight - they can somehow get my number but have no other info? Seems a bit off, doesn’t it? The way they operate is a joke too. They’ll put you on hold, or worse, just leave you in the lurch. It's all a bit dodgy and I suspect they're making a pretty penny from the fees on those return calls while leaving you high and dry. Total scam!

I received two calls from this number today, and let me tell you, the first one really pushed my buttons. I lost my temper and let loose with a bit of shouting and some choice language. The chap on the other end clearly wasn't best pleased, so I ended the call rather abruptly. Just half an hour ago, they tried reaching out again, but I decided to ignore it and hung up without even picking up. What a nuisance!

I received a phone call claiming to be from 'The Consumer Society', stating I was due a refund from a personal loan I took out with Welcome Finance back in 2005. However, I didn’t reside at this address during that time, nor did I have this phone number, and I've certainly never had a loan with Welcome Finance. When I pointed out these inconsistencies, they didn’t press the issue and assured me my details would be removed from their records. It’s clear this was just a ruse to gather personal information.
