5 yearssomebody rang up saying they were with people for power energy or somethin, had a long chat with em. then out of nowhere they asked me for my bank’s sort code, which i didn’t want to give. after that they started saying something about my savings couldnt be handled. bit fishy if you ask me.People for Power Energy5 yearsGot a call from a guy named Sam, sounded Asian. He knew my name and my landline number, which was a bit odd. He started talking about life insurance and claimed he could give me better perks than what I already had. Then he asked how much I was paying each month. Seemed dodgy, so I ended the call pretty quick. Feels like a scam to me.Sam5 yearsGot a call from a bloke named Sam, sounded Asian, going on about life insurance. He kept asking how much I currently pay and stuff. When I questioned where he got my info from, he just kept telling me to "listen to me ma'am" like I wouldn’t question him. Tried to convince me he had better cover for the same price. Definitely felt dodgy to me!Sam5 yearsGot a call from this number out of the blue, no clue who's behind it. Honestly, these cold calls should be banned altogether.5 yearsI ignored the call since the number was unfamiliar to me. No message was left, so I figured it was just another spam caller. I've gone ahead and blocked the number now!5 yearsThey said I was owed some money and wanted my bank info, so I just ended the call.5 yearsThe call seemed to be from some refund division based in the UK, I guess.UK5 yearsThis bloke got really shouty when I told him I wouldn’t give my bank info and called it a scam. He kept saying he was from some UK refund department and claimed I’m meant to get more than £3000 back.UK5 yearsAbsolute nonsense about PPI, and the bloke had the nerve to keep calling me. I made it clear I’m not interested in any of his dodgy schemes and he’s not gonna get a penny from me. After he called three times, it’s definitely bordering on harassment now. I’m going to report this to my phone provider and if it continues, the police will get involved.5 yearsGot a call today about some refund they say I’m owed, never asked for anything like that. Told them off and ended the call.5 yearsJust got a call telling me I had £5000 owed to me. I asked them for their company name to look it up and call back, but they just cut off. Total scam, watch out everyone!5 yearsGot a call from 01279 610709 - total spam, don’t answer!5 yearsManaged to keep him chatting for over 8 minutes. He claimed I was due some PPI compensation but said I needed to sign up for life insurance for 3 months first, to make sure the cash went to the right person. Said he’d put me through to this "insurance firm" and all I’d have to do was give them my sort code and account details for a direct debit. I told him to call back the next day so I could check with my daughter... he just hung up. Pretty sure he was annoyed I wasted his time! 😂😂Submit Your Own Report (01279 610709)
