01268859552 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 01268859552 👆 is reported as a persistent timeshare-related scam targeting UK consumers with convincing calls from individuals claiming to represent consumer rights or debt recovery agencies. Callers threaten legal action or court proceedings over alleged unpaid fees, often referencing defunct companies or long-terminated agreements. They use professional tones and familiar names but lack verifiable contact details, with many numbers traced to industrial estate offices rather than legitimate businesses. Victims report aggressive behaviour, pressure for upfront payments, and attempts to extract personal information. The consensus advises scepticism, urges verification of any claims through official timeshare providers, and recommends reporting suspicious calls to authorities and fraud prevention services to protect personal and financial data.
Reports on phone number 01268859552
3 yearsI recently had a rather odd phone call from the number 01268 859552. A bloke named Philip James insisted he represented something called the Consumer Rights Directive. After our chat, he rang me several times, but when I attempted to return his call, the number was suddenly unavailable. I can't shake the feeling that it was a dodgy call, especially since it revolved around supposedly helping me end a timeshare agreement I've been tangled up in for some time. Very suspicious, if you ask me!Philip James3 yearsI got a call from 01268859552, think it’s one of those dodgy scams, maybe tied to Diamond Resorts or something like Hilton. Seemed a bit fishy to me.Diamond ResortsHilton3 yearsReceived a couple of calls today, from two different women but the number was the same landline. I told each one it sounded like a scam and they just hung up on me.3 yearsI got a call from a number, 02723982062, claiming I had an outstanding payment on a timeshare for two years. Thing is, I don't even own one! It really threw me off. They asked me to phone 012688595521 to sort it out. Quite suspicious if you ask me.3 yearsI got a voicemail from a bloke called Philip who sounded really believable. When I rang the mobile back, a woman named Lucy answered and said she’d pass on the message to Philip. Given what I’ve read in these reviews, plus the fact that we’re fully paid up on our timeshare, I’m quite curious to see what Philip’s angle will be if he rings again. Gotta say, he sure knows how to use his voice to persuade folks... :-) Feels like a scam to me.PhilipLucy3 yearsThis morning, I got a call claiming to be from some consumer rights group in Basildon, saying I owed money to a timeshare company and was on some debt collection list. I looked up the number and it turned out to be a scam. They sounded really official, but don’t fall for it. I reached out to the Citizens Advice Bureau and they confirmed it’s a classic scam tactic.BasildonCitizens Advice Bureau3 yearsGot a dodgy call saying I’m about to be hit with a 30 day standing order because I supposedly haven’t paid maintenance fees on an old timeshare. They told me to contact their legal department straight away to sort it out. Total scam, don’t fall for it!3 yearsGot a call about some supposed money I owed for a timeshare, even though it’s way past any legal time they could come after me. The person on the line got really rude right at the end. Definitely felt like a scam to me.3 yearsGot a call out the blue about some consumer rights thing related to a timeshare we gave up ages ago. They kept pestering us, telling us we’d have to get a Spanish lawyer. Proper annoying behaviour, to be honest.3 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from consumer rights, telling me I owed money on a timeshare and they could help sort it via court. They said a litigator would ring back to set up a Zoom meeting. When they called again, they asked for payment upfront! I told them no chance in hell. They just said thanks for my time and then ended the call.3 yearsI got a call on this number from someone claiming to be Debt Collectors acting for Hilton hotels over unpaid Timeshare Management fees. No idea how they found my number, but they sounded pretty official. When I checked them out, turns out they’re based in some random industrial estate!!!Hilton HotelsTimeshare Management3 yearsI’ve just received a rather unsolicited phone call from a company claiming to specialise in timeshare recovery. They provided this number as their official call centre line. Curiously, they mentioned they don’t have a website, yet asserted there’s a debt recovery notice registered under my name. Quite baffling, isn’t it?3 yearsClaimed they had previously reached out regarding ownership of Club La Costa.Club La Costa3 yearsGot a call about some old Silverpoint timeshare ownership, sounded like a total scam to me.Silverpoint3 yearsGot a call from someone called Lucy claiming to be from Consumer Services Europe about some unpaid maintenance fees on a timeshare I don't even own any more. She was going on about court action if I didn't pay up. Sounded very persuasive, but I'm pretty sure it's a scam.LucyEurope3 yearsHad a call from someone saying they were from ‘Consumer Services Europe’. They told me there’s supposed to be a debt claim put on me by the firm that now owns Club La Costa, about some unpaid maintenance fees. Thing is, I gave up my ownership back in 2016. They kept asking about my situation and old ownership, saying they could assist me with no initial fees. The address they gave was just a serviced office on an industrial estate in Basildon. Felt a bit dodgy if you ask me.Consumer Services EuropeClub la CostaBasildon3 yearsI’m a bit confused if this is legit or just another scam. Got a call threatening legal action about a timeshare I gave up more than 15 years back. Never had a single document or any official notice about it.3 yearsI'm pretty sure this is one of those scams where they pretend to help you cancel a timeshare but it's just rubbish.Submit Your Own Report (01268 859552)
