I received a call from CapQuest, which is a debt recovery company. Typically, they’re the ones pursuing outstanding debts like credit card dues or unpaid utility bills. However, I must say, the staff were quite pleasant and accommodating. We had to speak with them on a few occasions regarding some debts that an old flatmate left behind. Once we clarified our circumstances, they were not only understanding but also genuinely apologetic for the inconvenience caused by their calls. I'm pleased to report that we haven't heard from them since!

We’ve been inundated with calls from this number, even though we’ve repeatedly requested them to remove our details. They continually inquire about a Mrs Parkinson, who we reckon must have owned this number before us. It’s getting rather tiresome, and they simply refuse to take the hint!

We just gave Capquest a ring, and it was only after the second ring that we realised we were dealing with someone we didn't recognise. It seems like the tone of the conversation really hinges on who you speak to. The first chap we encountered was rather pushy, whereas the person we spoke to this morning was considerably more polite and amiable. Fingers crossed that we've seen the last of them!

Recently, we received a call from someone wanting to confirm the first part of our address. The person on the other end was rather evasive, insisting they couldn't disclose the purpose of the call until we provided the information. We declined to give any details, and the operator mentioned they would log our refusal before promptly hanging up. Since that moment, I've noticed several calls from the same number, but we've chosen not to answer them. Given my previous experiences with certain companies trying to collect on a non-existent debt related to British Gas, I can't help but wonder if this is yet another debt collector on the prowl.

It's downright unacceptable, isn't it? No matter if you've got a debt to settle or not, there's absolutely no justification for these individuals to bombard you with incessant calls. It's a clear case of harassment, and legally, it shouldn't be tolerated! Yet, it seems they often escape accountability simply because most folks hesitate to speak up. The best course of action here would be to take your grievances to the local authorities and also inform CapQuest's phone service provider about their unwanted antics. Hats off to Joe Stainer for sharing vital details on how to address this!

Greetings, everyone. It appears that I've been dealing with Capquest. They're a rather persistent debt recovery firm. We had a small outstanding balance related to a catalogue that amounted to about £50, which we've settled some six weeks back. However, it seems they haven’t updated their records, as they continue to bombard us with calls. The number they're using is 01252576540, and it's become quite the nuisance, ringing us 3 to 5 times a day from 8 in the morning until 9 in the evening. We’ve chosen to ignore these calls now since we know we’ve settled our dues, and besides, we've relocated recently, so they won’t be able to track us down for a visit. Wishing you all the best!

I received a call from this number, and they wanted me to return the call to 08700843510 and mention the code 61p529. It all felt rather suspicious if you ask me. Does anyone have an idea what their game is? I'm curious about what they're really after!

For the last three weeks, we've been receiving calls from this number, and we've never answered any of them as we don't respond to unfamiliar numbers. A couple of times, we've received messages with a reference number, urging us to call back. Like many others who've noted similar experiences, we have our suspicions that this is a rather dodgy operation. The calls tend to come through at all hours, from 8 am right up until 10 pm, which is rather intrusive.

I have been getting calls daily from 01252675407, and now it seems I’m getting them from a number linked to the same company, Capquest. We’ve decided not to answer these calls, as there are no debts in this household that need managing or attention.

Utterly ridiculous individuals who display a shocking lack of decorum and refuse to accept a simple 'no'. These are the folks from Capquest, the debt collection agency.

I had a call from a company called CapQuest, who are involved in debt recovery. Honestly, they were quite polite and seem to be above board. I found them quite pleasant to engage with. There’s nothing fishy about their approach - just a business going about their responsibilities.

We've received calls from this number countless times, always around 9 in the morning. Each time we answer the phone, there’s no one on the other end. I appreciate everyone sharing their experiences on this platform; it’s certainly one we’ll keep in mind going forward!

We’ve recently received a call from this number, but they’ve chosen not to respond to our inquiries. After coming across some of the comments above, I’m quite puzzled, as we’re entirely debt-free - and have been our whole lives. None of our relatives have any outstanding debts either, and we’ve owned our home free and clear for three decades. It feels as though they might just be dialling random numbers they can find.

Simply answer the phone but don’t utter a word. These callers will eventually tire of their attempts once they clock on to the fact that it’s hitting their wallets. We used to be inundated with around six missed calls daily until we decided to pick it up and then slip it back into our pocket. They do still ring every now and then, but the frequency has drastically plummeted.

Indeed, Capquest acquires debts at roughly 10% of their original value, only to pursue the full amount relentlessly. It’s rather alarming as they tend to contact friends, family, and even neighbours in a bid to hunt down individuals. Their approach can be rather forceful at times. If you find yourself in a position where you owe money and they’ve acquired your debt, it’s wise to seek guidance from resources like www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk. Engaging in the forums there could be beneficial. Cheers, Dave.

We've been receiving calls from this number (01252 576540) for a while now. Every time we pick up, there's never anyone on the other end. After we checked with 1471, we decided to call them back. It seems they’re looking for someone who must have had our number prior to us. We asked them to remove our number from their list, and they assured us they would. We'll let you know if the calls continue.

Echoing what others have said, it appears these folks are indeed Capquest. We found ourselves in a bit of a pickle with a debt that they were hounding us for, insisting on some outrageous sums. In the end, we transferred our debt to a different firm that manages accounts just like ours. Despite this, it seems we’re still receiving about 4 to 6 missed calls each day from them, trying to coax us into settling directly with them-likely for their own benefit, as they’d pocket a larger commission that way. Best to steer clear of them!

Don't pay any attention to these blokes. They're merely part of a marketing scheme, as mentioned earlier.

The area code points to Aldershot, yet intriguingly, the service provider isn't BT. Instead, the number range 01252 57xxxx has been designated to Thus Plc, a firm that sadly has a reputation for being involved with a plethora of bothersome callers. While you could certainly reach out to express your grievances, I wouldn't hold my breath for positive outcomes. If you wish to get in touch with them, their details are as follows: THUS Plc, 1/2 Berkeley Square, 99 Berkeley Street, Glasgow, G3 7HR.

Indeed, it's Capquest pursuing credit card debts. If you find their tactics are a bit too pushy for your liking, you have the option to lodge a complaint with an ombudsman or simply settle the bill. It’s worth noting that these companies often purchase debts for a fraction of the original amount and yet demand the full sum from you. They may also operate as a branch of the original credit card company. Either way, their persistence can be quite relentless!
