6 yearsGot a call about a car crash scam, watch out lads!6 yearsThey called me but I just missed it. When I tried calling back the number I missed earlier, it wouldn’t connect. I guess I’ll wait and see if they ring again. Proper irritating!6 yearsThey rang me but dropped the call as soon as I picked up. If anyone knows who they are, please share here. Really appreciate it!6 yearsNo clue who it is but its really getting on my nerves since I’m trying to focus at work. Been getting loads of calls in the last couple of days!6 yearsClaims Direct keep ringing me, ive had about three calls this week from numbers that are all a bit different. Told them to take me off their list but they still call. Now I just ignore and block them straight away.6 yearsAnother dodgy call from some foreign scammer, honestly you'd think if they wanted to sound believable they'd get someone who actually speaks proper English. Most likely another bloke from Pakistan trying to pull a fast one - what do they even do besides lies, cheats, steals and god knows what else? Absolute rubbish. If I ever got my hands on this scumbag, i'd make sure he paid for it real bad, no mercy at all. I can't stand these muppets one bit!Pakistan6 yearsI reckon they ring just to check if someone picks up, so they know the number is active and can blast loads of spam or sell it to other scammers. Best just to block 'em! Total spam!6 yearsFunny thing, just got a call today about an accident they said I had years ago, but I never did. Told the guy I already had a couple calls last week about the same thing and that they’re totally wrong. Ended the call pretty quick.6 yearsWhat a surprise, yet another dodgy call from someone with a thick accent claiming to be from abroad. It makes you wonder why they don’t hire actual English speakers to sound believable. These car accident scams are everywhere these days-absolutely rampant! I wouldn’t be shocked if it’s just another crook from Pakistan. What is it with these blokes? All they seem capable of is deceiving, scamming, and causing harm-complete lowlifes! If I ever came across one of these pests, I’d be tempted to teach him a lesson he wouldn’t forget, really give him a reason to regret crossing paths with me. The disdain I feel for them knows no bounds!Pakistan6 yearsScammers pretending there was a car crash. I told them I’m on the firm registry and legally they have to block these types of calls. Definitely report them if you’re on the TPS and get one of these calls.TPS6 yearsCar crash scam, total rip off!6 yearsThey had my name, is there somewhere I can report this for breaking GDPR rules?6 yearsThese daft muppets rang me from that number. Trouble is, I’m based in Glasgow and there’s definitely no 739 local numbers in the 0141 area code! Also, the idea of someone from the Indian or Pakistani community here not having a proper Glaswegian accent is a bit far-fetched. Most of the IndoPak folks round here would probably speak like Rab C Nesbitt or Navid from Still Game! Best thing is to just ignore and hang up on these clowns.GlasgowRab C. NesbittNavid6 yearsGot a call but no message left. Then another spammer rang me back, but when I asked what their company did, they wouldn't say cos my number was hidden. So I blocked them straight away. They won't be bothering me anymore.6 yearsGot a call from this number earlier, had no clue who it was so I checked online. Proper irritating!6 yearsI just saw I missed a call from this number, and I'm only looking now because I don’t have it saved in my contacts.6 years01417390940 Called me claiming a car crash scam, just ended the call straight away.6 yearsBeware of the car crash insurance rip-off going around!6 yearsGot a call from someone about a car crash, totally random as I haven’t been in any accident. Quite annoying really.6 yearsI picked up but they just ended the call. I've decided to block the number now. Thing is, it’s probs not a proper phone number anyway, they must be using some internet calling trick, so they’ll likely ring back from another one :(6 yearsJust received another tiresome call about some bogus car crash. Any idea how I might track down where these nuisances are based? I’d love to drop in for a little chinwag!6 yearsThey present themselves as a claims firm, but they’re essentially just ambulance chasers at their most benign and downright fraudsters at their worst-truly akin to those dodgy boiler room operators. *** STEER CLEAR *** They’re relentless in their approach, trampling all over GDPR rules and ignoring the Telephone Preference Service.6 yearsThis is a con artist, without a doubt.6 years01417390940 and 01414069557 have been calling. They start by talking about a car crash but never say who they are. For the past 3 or 4 weeks, I keep getting calls from them but most of the time it's just silence.6 yearsSounds like I'm getting caught up in loads of so-called "accidents". Very clever attempt though. Blocked these numbers non-stop, all the time.6 yearsTotal scam, do not trust it!6 yearsThis number has called me a couple of times now, sometimes there's silence or they claim to be from ‘accident assistance’ or my insurance. I've blocked it but they keep ringing from other numbers. Proper annoying this is!6 yearsGot a call from this number, but as soon as I picked up, they just dropped it. Proper frustrating.6 yearsAbsolute rubbish. They told me I’d been in a crash. Never heard a thing about it before.6 yearsI ended the call as soon as they mentioned they were ringing on behalf of a claims firm.6 yearsHad a few calls from this number over the past couple weeks, every time I answer they just drop the call. Decided to call back today & some voice said "my colleague wanted to discuss an accident you were involved in". Gave them a piece of my mind and blocked the number straight away.6 yearsNot sure what that was about. They said I’d been in a car crash. I asked which crash exactly. They said the one that wasn’t my fault. I told them every accident I’ve had was my fault. Then they started to mumble and trip over their words. Thing is, I don’t even own a car, don’t drive and never have.6 yearsPut the phone down as soon as I answered, this number kept ringing me non stop.6 yearsDodgy call, pure scam.6 yearsGot a call from Claim Direct saying I was in an accident, which is not true as I’ve never had one. They keep changin’ their number too. Had to block another one today.Claim Direct6 yearsBloody ambulance chasers, what a nightmare!!! Absolutely disgusting!!!6 yearsSomeone called me saying they had a message from my insurance about an accident I’d supposedly been in. When I questioned them and asked how they got my number, the bloke said it was from the insurance firm! I told him to delete my info from their system and not to ring me again, but I've had two more calls after that. I think this might count as misuse under the telecommunications laws, but I’ve got to look it up properly.6 yearsGot a call from a number I didn’t know, stayed quiet on my end, and eventually they just ended the call.6 yearsSome bloke was looking for Philip and sounded like his English was all muddled.Philip6 yearsAbsolute scam artists, bloody get a proper job instead of wasting everyone’s time, you lot are pathetic.6 yearsSome rubbish about a car accident on the road!6 yearsGot a call with no one speaking, put the number into this site and read the reviews. Plenty of folks had the same issue. Reported it and put it on my block list.6 yearsReceived a call purporting to be from Claims Direct, discussing a car accident I’ve never been involved in. I requested they send the details in writing and promptly ended the conversation.Claims Direct6 yearsI keep receiving calls from 01417390940 in Glasgow every single day. They tried reaching out today, as well as last Thursday and Friday. Quite persistent, aren't they?Glasgow6 yearsReceived a call mentioning claims, and straight away I ended the conversation. Absolute jokers!6 yearsThey just won't stop ringing, I've had to block them now.6 yearsthey rang asking for my hubby, when i said he wasnt around they just hung up straight away6 yearsReceived a call from someone called James, said he was with Claims Direct, but sounded like a scammer. They used the number 01414069557. Seems dodgy and definitely from India.JamesClaims DirectIndia6 yearsGot a call about accident claims, instantly hung up!6 yearsI phoned back and got an answering machine saying if I missed the call they'd ring again later.6 yearsGot a call about an accident I was supposedly part of and they said they wanted to sort out repairs on my car.6 yearsgot a call from a different number about some accident compensation stuff again.6 yearsGot a call where someone tried to offer me money for a car crash that didnt even take place. Felt a bit odd and sus if you ask me.6 yearsIt was one of those bogus crash calls. Proper irritating. Gave them a piece of my mind and then blocked the number.6 yearsThey’ve rung me loads, I haven’t picked up and I’m planning to block the number.6 years0141 739 0940 - absolute nightmare scammers. rang me pretending to be from claims direct about some “car accident” I was supposedly involved in. blocked the number after giving them a good telling off. useless vultures trying to trick vulnerable or elderly folks out of their money. these so called “companies” should be closed down for good.Claims Direct6 yearsGot a voicemail from some automated voice saying I’d been in a car crash.6 yearsGot a call from Direct Claim UK about some accident I supposedly had. Instant block from me!Direct ClaimUK6 yearsProper cheeky with me, asked how I knew what they were selling. I’m not buying anything! Ended up hanging up and blocked the number straight away.6 yearsCalled by a accident claims number but I haven’t been in any accident.6 yearsOnce again, they bring up that car crash i supposedly had, which i definitely wasnt part of.6 yearsGot calls over and over again from an insurance firm that aint even legit, not registered at companies house or anything. They keep ringin me from loads of different numbers.Companies House6 yearsI got a ring from a woman claiming she was from Claims Direct and said I’d put in a claim for a crash that wasn’t my fault. When I told her I’d never dealt with them or even heard of them, and asked where she got my number, she just cut me off. Definitely feels dodgy.Claims Direct6 yearsIt's quite a notorious scheme, this whole car accident business. There are funds set aside for passengers who get hurt in crashes, and these operators are on the lookout for live numbers to contact. The moment we respond, they know it’s a functioning line, and if we divulge any further info, they can easily gather details like our names and addresses. From there, they’re able to submit fraudulent claims on our behalf and pocket the cash without much hassle. It tends to be a modest payout, which means they can bypass the usual checks. I experienced their relentless phone calls a few years back and did some digging into this shady practice. Now it seems they're at it again. I simply let the calls go to voicemail. Best not to engage, I reckon!6 yearsThis so-called insurance firm is nothing short of a scam, operating under dubious practices to acquire people's private information. I've flagged them to the Information Commissioner's Office, but they clearly lack any legitimacy in their operations.Information Commissioner ' s Office6 yearsRegarding that mishap you've encountered, I suspect it might be a con.6 yearsabout that small fender bender i definitely wasnt involved in.6 yearsPhone cut off right after I picked up. Saved the number under “nagging mishap”. If they ring again, I’ll update here.6 years"Got a ring regarding your mishap."6 yearsUtterly ridiculous regarding that “incident” of mine. Just hung up and straight away blocked the number!6 yearsI’ve had my fair share of calls from 0141 739 0940, and let me tell you, it’s clearly a dodgy number. It’s not the first time I’ve encountered an 0141 739 number either. I’d recommend steering clear of it - just block it and move on!6 yearsI just received a call from this number, but they hung up before I had a chance to speak. Lately, I’ve been inundated with calls from various unwanted sources, and I've got a hunch that WEBUYANYCAR might be sharing my details. I’ve enquired about car valuations a couple of times, and it wouldn’t surprise me if they’re the ones behind these nuisance calls.WEBUYANYCAR6 yearsYou might have a point there, as I too received a call from that very number after looking at a vehicle not too long ago.6 yearsJust received yet another dodgy call about an accident from the past couple of years. Ended up in a lengthy chat with a supervisor who insisted it was perfectly legal to claim for this so-called accident that never even took place - utter nonsense! It feels like a blatant scam. Curiously, I got a similar call yesterday, this time from a number starting with 0131.6 yearsI've received calls from 01417390904, 01414069557, and 01416115162 regarding an accident that I’ve never been involved in. When I picked up, they identified themselves as Claims Direct. I informed them I wasn't Mr Jones, yet they continued babbling about this supposed claim of mine. On two separate occasions, I simply set my phone down, leaving them to natter away until they lost interest. They wouldn’t disclose where they obtained my phone number, and after three attempts, one of them promised they’d remove me from their list, if only they actually knew it. This marks the fourth time I’ve been pestered since January. Each one is swiftly blocked, but they keep coming up with fresh numbers originating from Glasgow. I’m seriously contemplating giving one of them a call back next time.Claims DirectJonesGlasgowSubmit Your Own Report (0141 739 0940)
