Got a call from someone claiming to be with Ventura Insurance, which I've never come across before. Definitely feels like one of those insurance scams to me.

Today someone rang my doorbell and handed me a letter from this company called ACI, which I’ve never come across before. It all seemed dodgy to me, like a total scam. I’m definitely reporting it to the police!

Just had someone from ACI show up at my house claiming I owe them money. I don’t owe a thing and really don’t appreciate them coming round unannounced. Their number is 01253 226 046 if anyone wants to know. ACI really shouldn’t be doing this.

I got a letter claiming I owed money from some company called ACI debt recovery. The bloke who handed it over got caught on my CCTV and I even managed to snap a pic of his car's number plate. I went to the police but they said they couldn’t really help with it. Seems like these folks are just trying to rip people off, and the police aren't doing much to stop them. I looked up the phone number they used and found out it's linked to scams. If they show up at my door again, I’ll have a few choice words for them first. The number they use is 01253 226 046.

Today, a person knocked on my door and left a letter claiming I had an account with HSBC, which I've never had. I decided to just ignore the letter, but later I visited the ACI website and contacted the number listed there. I gave them the reference provided, and turns out HSBC was the lender for a loan I took out ages ago. Funny enough, it's the very loan I never bothered to pay.

The green comments here might be genuine, but they could also be from scammers trying to trick you with wrong info. If you have debts, make sure to settle them with the actual people or companies you owe, not these callers. If you’re not sure whether you owe anyone, get in touch with the supposed lender these folks mention. If it looks dodgy, definitely report it. You can text the details to 7726. As for that letter, best thing to do is ring Action Fraud on 0300 123 2040 or call 101 to find out what they want you to do with it.

Got a letter shoved through my letterbox saying I owe money to HSB, but Ive never even had an account with them. They actually buzzed my doorbell so I seen what they look like. They even had the nerve to snap a photo of my house before knocking. When I didnt answer, they went round to my neighbours asking questions. They’ve clearly messed up big time with data protection. Honestly, I’m gonna report these lot to the police. What a bunch of muppets.

Just a heads up, this number is definitely a scam. We’ve had some contact with it lately and have reported everything to the cops, who are now looking into it. So please, don’t answer calls or texts from it!

Sadly, this number isn’t some dodgy scam line. The number 01253226046 mentioned in the ACI letter actually connects you straight to their payments department. If you search on Google for the number they list on their site, 01253 531528, you’ll still get through to the payments team. If you do owe money, it’s best to admit it or have a legit explanation rather than saying it’s a scam.

I got a call about a loan with HSBC that I supposedly owe, but I’ve never even had an account with them. I contacted HSBC directly and they confirmed I don’t owe a penny. I’ve gone ahead and reported the whole thing to Action Fraud - folks should do the same, the more reports we have the better. They told me if these people turn up at my door again, just don’t open it and get the police involved.

I had some guy from Verify showing up at my flat today. Honestly, its so rude. They tried to scam me out of £1400. What really got me was how they had the nerve to just turn up at my place like that, absolutely shocking behaviour.

I keep receiving letters about a debt that isn’t mine. After searching the phone number online, I found out it’s a scam. They’re obviously trying to trick me into ringing them and paying almost £1200 that I don’t owe. How on earth are these firms still allowed to bother honest, hardworking people or those who might be more vulnerable in 2024?! It’s ridiculous!

I’ve got 2 letters from ACI, each showing different phone numbers, saying I owe loads for a HSBC loan I've never even taken or had an account with. I haven’t got any debts and my credit report is totally clean. Then I got another one from Verify threatening to send bailiffs and telling me to ring a number. I haven’t called anyone because I’m certain I don’t owe anything, plus all the numbers I checked seem dodgy and linked to scams! Should I get the police involved or someone else? This feels like a complete scam and I’d hate for others to be tricked by these fraudsters.

My mate got a letter sent to his old place with a Verify logo on it, saying it’s from some lot called ACI UK about an unpaid sum of £760.14. They’re even saying they might turn up at that address if it’s not sorted. The letter asks to get in touch on 01253226046 within a week. Neither me nor him have a clue who ACI UK are or what this money’s meant to be about.

Got a text basically threatening to show up at my place. Rang them back, and they started asking for loads of my personal info as some sort of “security check”. I wasn’t having any of it. They wouldn’t tell me who they were or why they’d messaged me unless I handed over all my details. I hung up straight away. Looked up their number and ended up on this page. It’s definitely a scam. Really don’t get how these lot are still running around the UK. They should be stopped for good. Proper nasty and unsafe folks.

I received a rather unexpected call from a debt recovery firm named ACI or something along those lines. To be honest, it was quite baffling as I don't owe anything to anyone.

This number keeps sending really scary texts claiming they're coming to your house to check you live there and collect a debt you don’t owe. They tell you to ring them back and give a code mentioned in the message. Each time I block one of these, they switch up the name, number and the message slightly but still talk about the same debt scam. I’ve been dealing with this for about three years now and reported it loads to my phone company but nothing stops it. It must be really frightening for anyone who’s not aware it’s just a sneaky trick about fake debts.

I've been getting calls from ACU and always refuse to share any personal info when they ask security questions. Today, I got a text saying, "We've been asked by ACI to come to your house about your account. We'll be planning a visit within two weeks to confirm your address and try to connect you with our client. If you'd rather sort this out without a visit, ring our client on 01253 226046 quoting 1164362." I phoned that number and they wanted my personal details again. I've got no debts at all.

Beware, this number is linked to a dodgy debt collection outfit known as ACI. Basically, ACI is just a cover for Affiniti Integrated Solutions Limited, a firm that’s been pulling phishing scams for over eight years now. The letters they send mention fake contact details for organisations like CAB, StepChange, and MoneyHelper, but if you check those numbers, they all lead back to AISL. This company is officially listed with Companies House though.
