Now, I only pick up if it’s someone I’m familiar with.5 yearsGot a call from 01212840870 but nobody answered. I’ve blocked the number now.

A recorded male voice claimed £600 was taken from my debit card and asked me to press 1 if I authorised it, or 2 to talk to someone. Sounded like a total scam, so I just hung up straight away.5 yearsTotally a scam - got a recorded voice telling me about a transaction on my debit card going abroad. It said, "If this was you press 1, if not press 2 to talk." They also warned my card could be blocked if I didn’t reply.

Definitely a scam!5 yearsThey said its my bank callin about some activity on my account sending money overseas, so I should get in touch with them.5 yearsGot loads of calls from 01212840870, no idea who it is!

Time to celebrate with some drinks!5 yearsBefore I even picked up, I heard a man shouting a message really loud.

Pretty clear it was a scam, and no money had left my account at all.5 yearsGot a call sayin my card was charged £600, looks like another banking scam to me.5 yearsSome bloke rang up saying £600 had been taken from my bank account. I had a look and there was nothing wrong.

Best not to pick up!5 yearsJust silence on the other end so I’m guessing it’s a call centre.5 yearsSounds like a scam trying to steal your bank info.

Sounded dodgy to me.5 yearslooks like a bank fraud trying to scam me out of money!5 yearsGot a message from a recorded lady with a voice kinda like the one you get on 1471.

I just hang up, but these calls keep coming every day now, really frustrating.5 yearsNo idea who that was.5 yearsStill no clue who they claimed to be. The minute I told them I wasn't who they wanted (that's me!), she just hung up without a word. Like I always say, these calls aren’t harmless; they’re at best a nuisance, and honestly, I reckon they’re pretty risky too.5 yearsMoney con scam, watch out!5 yearsThis woman didn’t say her name, but she said she’s from some place called Blackhorse Finance (I looked it up and it’s a car insurance firm). She told me I’m eligible for £3,500 and that I need to fill out some life insurance form to get the money. I might’ve been daft and given her my info by mistake and now I’m really worried. Am I in any danger of debts or anything like that?Blackhorse Finance5 years01212840870 calling about PPI, total scam!5 yearsTOTAL SCAM!!! Got really rude and started swearing at me just because I didn’t want to answer their questions!5 yearsGot a call from an Asian woman named Flora who claimed she works for Blackhorse Finance, saying my PPI claim was approved and I’m due £3,000. She wanted my bank info, but I told her I’d prefer a cheque instead since I’m not comfortable giving my details. She then said something about COVID rules stopping them from sending cheques (bit hard to believe!). I kept pushing for a cheque and then she just cut the call.FloraBlackhorse FinancePayment Protection Insurance5 yearsI wasnt able to pick up and there was no message left when they hung up. Just a quiet call.

He claimed I was due compensation from some PPI thing (didn't they stop that years ago?). He asked which bank account to send the money to. When I told him to jog on and called the whole thing a scam, he insisted it was legit and promised to post me the paperwork. Yeah right, like I’m gonna sit around for that. Plus, he called me by a fake name I've used before with other rip-offs, so pretty clear it was all fake.MichaelAsia5 yearssome bloke with an asian accent rang me saying i owed £3600 in ppi or something, then asked what bank i was with. i wouldnt say so he said he couldnt send me a cheque without it and that the only way to get the money was to give him the info. i just ended the call there.5 yearsHad three calls from this number over the past three days. Each time, they kick off by insisting they only need to chat for about 40 seconds. However, after five minutes, I'm still fielding queries about energy providers, mortgages, life insurance, and such. I've had enough and have now blocked them.5 yearsI just had a call informing me that I’m eligible for PPI and that I could expect a nice £4000 in my account within the next three months. Absolutely ridiculous! 😂😂 Clearly a total scam. What’s a bit alarming, though, is that they had my postcode and address.

I didn't bother calling back.5 yearsReally helpful!5 yearsProper cheeky, they only asked who I was and nothing else 0121 28408705 yearsGot a call from another number linked to different scams.

Needless to say, I just ended the call - watch out for this one.US5 yearsI let the call ring out as I wasn't anticipating anything from a 0121 number.5 yearsI’ve been inundated with calls from all sorts of different numbers lately. Every time I manage to block one, another pops up! The callers all seem to have Indian accents and give off that typical call centre vibe. I didn’t allow this latest chap to go through his whole routine, so I’m clueless about what dodgy company he represents. It’s clearly a scam, and I’ve lost track of how many calls I’ve received this past week-perhaps around eight? It’s becoming incredibly frustrating!5 yearsI had no clue who was ringing me from this number, and they didn’t bother leaving a voicemail. I’ll be adding them to my block list.5 yearsThis seems like a dodgy questionnaire, likely designed to pilfer your private information. Do exercise caution, folks!5 years0121 284 0870 These lot call almost every day from loads of different numbers. Proper scam, I'm just gonna keep blocking them. Now they’re even ringing late at night!

Told her to keep calling and I’ll just tell them to f##k off. I’ve blocked so many numbers already but they just switch them up and ring again, sometimes even in the evening. There really ought to be a way to stop these scammers for good.ChrisKrissAsia5 yearsTotal scam, best to just ignore the call.5 yearsSaid they were calling on behalf of Beneficial. They’ve rung me before from numbers I’ve already blocked, bit daft trying again after I made it clear last time. Told them I wasn’t interested but they still pushed on with their “survey”, so I said again to take me off their list. Then they just hung up. Honestly, if they ring one more time I might just blow a whistle down the line.5 yearsI've had quite enough of these pesky callers interrupting my day, ringing me twice daily without fail. It's becoming rather tiresome!5 yearsGot a call from a firm named beneficial but turned out to be another lot of phishing scammers from Asia. Just blocked and reported them straight away.Beneficial5 yearsThe lady claimed she was from a debt help firm in Manchester but wouldn’t say which one. She then admitted the call was coming from India. Total scam!!!ManchesterIndia5 yearsBlocked the number straight away.5 yearsGot calls from survey scammers who were really rude. Told them to stop calling and they started being nasty to me. Such awful people. Better stay clear of them completely.5 yearsThis person is such a nuisance, called me like 6 times within one hour!5 yearsGot a call on my mobile today from a landline with a European sounding woman on the other end. When I asked how she got my number, she just brushed it off, saying she was the one asking questions. She kept going even when I pushed back. Once I called her out on lying, she just hung up. Watch out, this was definitely a rude scam caller!5 yearsTotal scam, just a phising attempt!5 yearsSounds like some bloke from India called Gunga Din.India5 yearsI picked up and there was dead silence so Ive just blocked the number now.5 yearsNobody said a word. Just went silent, so I blocked them.5 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Indian accent, sounded like she was at a call centre 'cause you could hear people chatting in the background. She said her name was Vanessa Short at first, then changed it to Louise Short and claimed she was from a UK bank, asking if I could answer some questions. I told her no and said not to call me again. Blocked the number straight away. Definitely a scam. Wish I hadn’t even picked up!Vanessa ShortLouise ShortUK5 yearsThey called about some survey but got quite annoyed when I said our drain firm was top notch. No jokes allowed, really! Then they just hung up and blocked me.5 yearsMy phone buzzed for like 14 seconds then just cut off, didn't even get a chance to answer. Now the number's blocked.5 yearsTotally a scam!!!!!Fraud5 yearsCalled me three times, had my name too, but I told them they must have the wrong number. They kept ringing though. Said they were from some united company or something? I’ve blocked them now, felt really dodgy.United5 yearsTotal scam, just ignore and block them.5 yearsWhenever I pick up calls from this number, I end up saying hello loads of times before some Indian bloke just says goodbye. Proper waste of time, honestly.5 yearsThey go by Reliable Appliances. Say they can fix any appliance or swap it out if needed, all for just £7.99 a month. Then ask for your bank details to start a direct debit. No way am I falling for that! Not that daft! Total scam.Reliable Appliances5 yearsDespite multiple requests to have my number taken out of their system, they stubbornly refuse to comply. On top of that, they keep trying to ring me, even though I’ve blocked them. Quite frustrating, really!5 yearsGot a call from someone wanting to do a "quick" survey - but it took her about 5 minutes just to get through the first few questions, so I just ended the call. No clue which company she was working for either.5 yearsAbsolute blokes are constantly ringing me from various numbers, and it’s driving me up the wall! It’s utterly infuriating! Can't stand it!!!5 yearsHad enough of that number, just going to block it - total pain.5 yearsI got calls from a couple of numbers that looked pretty alike. I just don’t pick up unless I’m certain who it is. Ended up blocking them.5 yearsRang them but no response... looks like a spam number.5 yearsDidn't leave any voicemail or text, so had a look here and decided to block the number.5 yearsIt happens pretty much every week, I get maybe about ten calls from loads of different numbers. They’re always after someone who's not me and then start trying to fish for my personal info, which I never hand over. I’ve told them ages ago to remove my work mobile from their list (reason why I pick up) but they just ignore it. Such a pain!5 yearsCalled by some spam number and no one said a word on the other end.5 yearsthis bloke kept breathing down the phone like some creep, proper annoying!5 yearsOnce again, Beneficial has been blowing up my phone with calls from loads of different numbers, sometimes hitting me up several times daily. When I pick up, there's a quiet pause, then someone finally talks. Usually I just end the call straight away, but honestly, I’m close to just telling them to get lost in no uncertain terms.Beneficial5 yearsGot a call today but when I answered, it was just dead quiet, no one through. Tried looking up the number afterwards but couldn’t find a single trace of it anywhere. Feels like some kinda scam or spam to me!Submit Your Own Report (0121 284 0870)
