2 yearssomeone called saying they had tips about loft insulation, but they just dropped the call when i said im renting, not the owner. this isn’t the first time ive had these calls either.3 yearsNot sure who it was, but they were asking about marriage allowance stuff.3 yearsTotally a scam.3 yearsThey’re getting trickier! This number rang me, but as soon as I picked up, all I got was a ring tone like I was the one calling, then it just cut off. Maybe they use some sort of auto dialler trying to find live numbers to peddle on?3 yearsGot loads of calls from an Asian woman about some PPI claim, kept saying my name over and over. I’ve blocked the number and reported it now.3 yearsReally dodgy! Got a call from this number but all I heard was ringing like I was the one calling, then it suddenly cut off. Feels like they might be running some auto-dialling machine, probably aiming to find active numbers to peddle or something. That’s why I flagged it as a scam.3 yearsGot a missed call from a Blackburn number, didn’t answer it at first but later looked it up and realised it was a scam.Blackburn3 yearsUtter scam alert! Got a call from an Indian woman saying I had a tax refund from some PPI I supposedly claimed years back. Her English was terrible, made no sense at all. Definitely a scam, be careful!3 yearsGot a call from an Asian lady, but couldn’t catch much except the word “tax” coming through. Told her it was probably a scam and just hung up.3 yearsCheers for the other replies. Ringed me earlier but I don't know anyone round here (Blackburn), so I left it, now it's blocked. 😝Blackburn3 yearsCalled me at half past three on 23rd November. I picked up but nobody said a word, then my phone started ringing like I was making a call myself! I ended the call straight away and blocked the number. Pretty sure it’s some sort of scam.3 yearsJust got a call from someone saying they were HYC and claimed to have handled my PPI claim before. Ive had loads of calls already and told them to remove me from their list, this is getting like harassment now.HYC3 yearsGot called 7 times out of the blue!3 yearsTotal scam. They said they handled a PPI claim for me before, but I’ve never even made a PPI claim.3 yearsGot a ring but as soon as I answered, they just dropped the call. Weird!3 yearsTotally a scam, i just ignored it and then blocked the number after seeing what others said and following the tips here.3 yearsI wonder what sort of scams this lot from India might try next. Since they're already in the UK, I’d say the Conservatives should act fast with the boat policies - maybe then they can catch these people and send them over to Rwanda. If they’re here illegally, they definitely shouldn’t be allowed to stay.IndiaUKConservativeRwanda3 yearsGot a call claiming to be about a PPI but they asked for money straight away, definitely a scam.3 yearsThey ring me up about 3 times every single day, it’s getting ridiculous ####3 yearsDon’t fall for it, they claimed to be Help Your Tax or HYT. Their website is rubbish and when I checked Companies House, it looked really dodgy. The director was only listed for a week! Stay clear of these lot!Companies House3 yearsGot a call from some ‘Help you claim’ lot, saying they could sort out my PPI claim. They had bits of my address right but not entirely spot on. Quite dodgy if you ask me.3 yearsTotal con artists, 100% fake.3 yearsThey said they’d handled a PPI claim for me a while back under another business name. I actually sorted my PPI claim on my own. The place was really loud and I ended up just hanging up on them.3 yearsDefinitely a scam, stay careful!3 yearsTotal con artists messing about with PPI claims. Best not to get involved, they'll only take your time and end up scamming you out of cash.3 yearsTotal rip-off!3 yearsOh yeah, this was definitely a scam call!3 yearsThe caller had a weird foreign accent and the line was terrible, full of crackles. They kept going on about PPI and HSBC or something. I immediately thought it was a scam cause the background noise was awful and the voice was so hard to make out. Ended up just hanging up, it was painful to listen to.PPIHSBC3 yearsHe tried to tell me I got less on my PPI claim and said he could sort me out with extra cash! When I asked him where he was calling from (thought maybe some call centre in India), he said Manchester - odd since the number was showing Blackburn!!! I knew straight away it was a scam, especially since I never even made a PPI claim!ManchesterBlackburn3 yearsI didnt pick up. After seeing what others said, I’ll just block the number and report it to 7726.3 yearsGot a call from this number but missed it, so I rang back. There was a recorded message saying calls to "HYT" are recorded, then it cut off. Then the same number called me straight back, and a woman started going on about PPR repayment info. She had my name and address, but I never said a word; she just kept jabbering away. Seems like a dodgy scam to me.HYT3 yearsIf you receive a dodgy call, just text or send their number to 7726, cheers!3 yearsGot a call from this number on 3rd November around 11.05am, but as soon as I picked up, they ended the call straight away.3 yearsScammer #### just ended the call as soon as I started getting annoyed. Loads of folks are getting ripped off by these sorts of scams, it's mad how much money people are losing here.3 yearsGot a call from someone saying I’d made a PPI claim, but I never even did. Total scam.3 yearsThey tried to offer me some kind of marriage refund deal, and I just said, "brilliant, you can have her back then." They just ended the call after that.3 yearsI spoke in French but no reply at all!!!3 yearsI kept getting calls claiming to be from hmc (help my claim), so I just hung up and blocked the number right away.HMC3 yearsGot calls from this number that I didn't ask for and have no clue who they are.3 yearsGot a call that was definitely some sort of spam.3 yearsI picked up the phone, but all I heard was silence for a bit. Then it suddenly began ringing like they were trying to patch me through to someone else. I just ended the call and put the number on block straight away.3 yearsGot a call from this number claiming to sort out a PPI claim, but I'm pretty sure it's one of those scams.3 yearsPhone rang and this woman said my name, then told me to F O. SHE'S A TOTAL SCAMMER! kept talking about refunding money or something, so I told her again to F O, you scammers. She still kept jabbering on so I just hung up.3 yearsGot a call from a lady with a really thick accent, she was talking about some claim from an accident back in 2009 - problem is, I’ve never been in any accident at all. She mentioned something about getting between £500 and £1,000 back, but her accent was so strong and there was loads of noise in the background, I couldn’t make out what she was actually offering. Oddly enough, she did know my first name, which I found a bit strange.3 yearsThey said they were handling PPI. They already knew I'd had a PPI claim sorted. Asked me how much I got but I couldn't recall. Then they wanted to know my yearly wage in 2019. I gave them the figure. They told me since it was taxed at 40%, I wasn't eligible for any extra tax relief from HMRC. That was it, the call ended.HMRC3 yearsSome bloke rang up on my husband’s mobile saying I’d claimed PPI and a tax refund. I told them straight I haven’t worked in yonks, like 13 years, so no tax to pay and no PPI claim either. Absolutely refused to hand over any personal info on the phone - never trust these calls anymore, getting proper annoying how many scams are about.3 yearsGot a call from 01245791548, some automated message about taxes or something. Just ended the call and blocked the number straight away.3 yearsGot a call about some marriage allowance refund linked to a PPI claim I had ages back.

Watch out, could be a scam!3 yearsI just ignored it, what a pain.3 yearsJust got a call from yet another scammer!!! Beware everyone!!!3 yearsI keep getting calls from those numbers like several times daily. It's kind of annoying.3 yearsTotal scam this one. They somehow know personal bits like your name and your partner’s, then tell you there’s a tax rebate from HMRC for marriage allowance. Absolute rubbish, so steer clear.HMRC3 yearsGot a call from some dodgy number when I was trying to ring my grandma. Turns out it was just scammers.3 yearsSo this marriage allowance thing was a proper scam. My mum got a call and the person on the other end already had loads of her details, even messing around about how many years she’d been wed. I told her to just end the call, but she started getting a bit annoyed. Then they messaged her a link to click on so she could supposedly give permission. Definitely dodgy stuff 🚩🚩🚩3 yearsThe lady had quite a strong accent, seemed South African maybe, but she mentioned 'Anya' which made me think she might be based around Blackburn. I wonder if they use some kind of smart call forwarding though? She came across as really confident and knew our phone company straight away, but completely messed up by talking about a Marriage Tax Refund when we’ve never even tied the knot.AnyaBlackburn3 yearsThat number 01254 791548 keeps calling me about some marriage allowance scam. Really annoying! Don’t fall for it, total con.3 yearsI got a call about a marriage tax refund and they already had both mine and my husband’s names, birthdates, and my address. They asked me to verify our wedding date. I told the caller I’d need to do some research on them before sharing any personal info. After that, they sent me a message with these details: HYC: contact information Help Your Tax Limited Business Center Freckleton Street, Blackburn Postcode: BB22AL Phone numbers: 0161 850 0593 | 0161 850 2025 Email: [email protected] Website: www.helpyourtax.co.uk UK Company Number: 10453237 Registered with ICO: ZB035893 VAT Number: 369846042HYCFreckleton StreetBlackburnInformation Commissioner ’ s Office3 yearsComplete rip off, but somehow they had a surprising amount of accurate details 😠3 yearsCouldn't be bothered to answer and ended up blocking the number.3 yearsGuy was blabbering about some marriage tax or something, said he ain’t got no plans with pip. Sounds like a total scam to me.3 yearsSomeone called Harvey said he was from this place called HYT, telling us about some marriage tax refund. I picked up my dad's phone instead, and they just assumed I was my mum. They never asked for any security or personal info, which was a dead giveaway it was dodgy. I played along for a bit just for laughs before saving the proof when they messed up. Honestly, if they ring you, just block the number - it’s definitely a con.HarveyHYT3 yearsThey claimed there was some kind of marriage allowance refund I was supposed to get. Total con, not falling for it.Said3 yearsGot a call claiming HMRC was giving me a refund for marriage allowance, but I just ended the call straight away.HMRC3 yearsGot a call earlier from someone named Marcus, said he was from Help Your Claim.Marcus3 yearsGot a spam call, so I've just blocked the number.3 yearsI just ignored and put the number straight on block.3 yearsI got a call from Help Your Claim and honestly, the woman on the other end was pretty unfriendly and came across as quite pushy.

I've ended up blocking loads of different numbers since the scammers keep changing them. Definitely annoying!EE3 yearsI had no clue who it was, so I just let it ring out.3 yearsAll day I've been getting odd texts from this number. My phone never actually rings, but I get messages saying they tried calling and I missed it. Feels like one of those fake calls to me. I've gone ahead and blocked it now.3 yearsGot a call from some bloke going on about refunds and joint insurance pension stuff, sounded like nonsense about being owed money or something. Couldn't make head nor tail of what he was saying, so I just hung up. No follow-up calls, so probably a scam.3 yearsThey called saying I was due a massive tax refund. Totally shady, I just blocked the number straight away.3 yearsI chose to ignore the call.3 yearsI didn’t pick up and they didn’t leave any voicemail, so I’m just gonna mark it as spam.3 yearsI got a call from this number, and the woman on the line kept insisting she knew my last name, even though I never gave it to her. She started talking about some claim I supposedly had for more than a grand. I told her straight up that it sounded like a con and told her not to call me again before hanging up. But then the same number called back just seconds later, I ignored it and have blocked the number now. Hopefully, this warning helps someone else too.3 yearsGot a spam call from a random number, so I just blocked it straight away and ignored it.

I even told him I used to work for HMRC and could offer some tips, but he just ended the call. Weird experience.HMRCSubmit Your Own Report (01254 791548)
