1 yearJust went ahead and blocked the number straight away.1 yearThis 01482 483281 number keeps ringing me loads, saying something about an urgent call and giving a reference to mention. It’s been nonstop for a few days, calling multiple times a day. Definitely seems like a scam so I’ve gone ahead and blocked it.2 yearsGot a letter from Lloyds Bank saying I owe them money and they've passed my debt to Cabot Financial Ltd UK. Phone number: 01482 484 602. I never got any earlier warning about this supposed debt, and as far as I know, I’ve never even had an account with Lloyds Bank.
