I keep receiving calls from these individuals. The message says, "Kindly enter the number you received this text on. . . . . . . if you're D**** S****, press 1 to retrieve your account details." It's getting rather tiresome!

The number 01268297657 has been incessantly ringing me every minute, even though I’m currently without my phone. I've had to rely on my fax machine to verify the caller’s identity. Honestly, these individuals are rather foolish and, quite frankly, their behaviour is both dishonest and utterly disgraceful. It’s beyond ridiculous!

Blimey, these folks simply won't take a hint, it's quite vexing! They've even gone and cancelled our card without cause - we've never exceeded our limit and not once been late with a payment, mind you we owe about a hundred quid. We took similar action like TB and decided to cancel our Direct Debit when they pulled that stunt, though we've since put it back in place as per the agreement. It's a clever idea to switch our details to an untraceable number, might give that a whirl! They're really getting under our skin now.

I received calls from the Egg credit team. Whenever I dialled that number, I was directed to contact 08453660005 to find out the reason for their persistent calls. I assure you, we're not exceeding our credit limit. In fact, we've been fortunate enough to have our card cancelled recently, and we're consistently repaying more than the minimum required each month. It’s quite aggravating as they persistently ring us four times a day without fail. However, today we found a simple solution; we logged into our account on the Egg website and altered our mobile number in the contact details to a fictitious number. Problem sorted!

We receive calls from this number almost daily between half eight in the morning and half eight in the evening. Quite honestly, we're at a loss as to who it could be or what they're after. It’s becoming rather irritating, to say the least!

I've established a repayment arrangement with Egg, which is all well and good, yet these callers persist in ringing us about four times a day. We gave them an opportunity to clarify their purpose during one of the calls; however, the chap on the other end seemed completely taken aback or perhaps distracted, as he was caught off guard by our response. Call me old-fashioned, but whenever we reach out to someone, we strive to pay attention and truly understand the conversation, rather than getting flustered because their pre-rehearsed script has gone awry.

Absolutely, it’s quite the bother! They’ve been giving us a ring for what feels like weeks on end. Sometimes it’s just a number that pops up, like a 01932, and at other times it’s an anonymous caller. Such a right pain! They claimed to have an urgent message for me, but it looks like it was all just a load of nonsense. What a waste of time!

I've been inundated with calls from a withheld number and this specific number, and it's rather peculiar. Whenever we respond, they just hang up without a word. My partner and I have a credit card with Egg, but we've always been punctual with our repayments. It's baffling why these individuals are trying to contact us, given that they seem to abruptly end the conversation for no apparent reason. Once we’ve settled our measly £500 debt with them-just so you know-I’ve made up my mind never to touch a credit card again. Honestly, we're convinced they're the bane of our existence!

Aren't they just the most relentless nuisances? We've had these individuals try their luck on six separate numbers! It's clear as day what they're after. They had the nerve to cancel our card, prompting us to terminate the direct debit! We've reinstated it now, yet the phone calls keep coming. But honestly, we just brush them off! So tedious, it’s like a never-ending saga - yawn!

What a fantastic website this is! We've come to realise it's actually from EGG, and they're going to keep us in the loop if we happen to miss a call!

We keep receiving calls from this number, even though we’ve told them numerous times that the person they’re trying to reach hasn’t had this number for ages - it’s a work phone, for crying out loud! Most of the time, the line goes dead after a few rings, but eventually, we do get through to someone. They assure us that our number will be removed from their list. However, despite their promises, it seems nothing ever changes, and the calls just keep coming. It's incredibly frustrating!

Is this related to Egg? Do you happen to possess a credit card or service associated with Egg Money?

They decided to call us this afternoon around half eight on a Saturday, and then again after nine in the evening! How irritating! This might just put our direct debit in a bit of a pickle! 😂

I've been receiving these pesky silent calls time and again, and it's starting to feel like harassment, to be honest. Just to clarify, I've got no issues with EGG; my account is all settled and current.

We receive calls from this lot around four to five times every day, and it has become frankly quite exasperating. Consequently, we have lodged a formal complaint under Section 10 of the Data Protection Act with their Data Protection Officer, demanding that they stop handling our personal information - specifically our phone number. I'm well within my rights to take this action, as I have a solid understanding of Data Protection laws. Since they ignored our initial request, we’ve escalated the matter and contacted the Information Commissioner’s Office, which has the authority to compel them to adhere to our demands!

It appears that this is the team representing Egg Credit. When you dial that number, you’re prompted to call 084536605 to discern the reason for their calls. Rest assured, I’m not exceeding our limit. Fortunately, we’re among those who have recently had our card terminated, and we're consistently paying off more than the minimum each month. Yet, these callers ring us four times a day without fail. A simple solution emerged earlier today; we logged into the Egg website and altered our contact details, replacing our mobile number with a fictitious one.

Absolutely agree, it’s quite maddening! We’re currently exceeding our limit by a fair bit, and these callers have been incessantly ringing us - about eight times a day! The numbers are 01268 297657 and 0845 3560042. It’s rather frustrating, especially since our pay isn’t in for another couple of days, which makes it impossible to settle this debt (and I suspect that’s exactly what they’re banking on!). We’ve found ourselves caught in a similar circumstance with Barclaycard, but at least they only call us once to alert us of the situation. I don’t usually let this happen, but I must concur with the other commenter; credit cards are truly a necessary evil!
