Received a call from them claiming I’d been granted a £1000 loan, but they demanded I deposit £120 into their account first to access the funds. Honestly, they must think I'm some sort of gullible idiot. When they probed about the purpose of the loan, I cheekily replied that I fancied a proper celebration for Christmas, and they seemed completely fine with that! Unbelievable! I wouldn’t hand over a single penny to these dodgy characters. Seriously, what sort of self-respecting loan company doles out cash just so someone can go on a bender? - Number in question: 0151 528 3960.

I can’t quite believe what’s just happened to me-I've been completely swindled out of over £300 by this number, and they’re still hounding me for more! It's utterly infuriating and I feel like such a fool. Christmas has been thoroughly spoiled, and to make matters worse, they now have my bank details, including my account number, sort code, and my address! It's just unbelievable! - Caller: 0151 528 9906

I just had a call from this number, and after looking it up, I decided to cut off the conversation with the company. To my dismay, I was met with some atrocious, racially charged language on the other end. It felt quite threatening, to be honest. This company is nothing short of a nuisance. - caller: 0151 528 3089

UTTER SCAM!! My boyfriend and I received a call from this so-called loan company that sounded far too good to be real. However, in a moment of desperation for cash, we reluctantly continued with it after peppering the caller with questions to catch him out. Initially, he claimed we needed to transfer £80, but then suddenly, the figure soared to £145! To our disbelief, he later insisted that we head to the post office and hand over £200 directly to him. At that point, we knew enough was enough! When we declined, he turned nasty and began making threats over the phone! I’m curious if anyone here has succeeded in reclaiming their money back or has any tips to offer?

Cheers! I just had a bloke on the phone, named Philip Morgan, whose English was a bit all over the place. He was trying to entice me with a £2,000 loan for an upfront payment of £120. He’s now waiting for me to get back to him, but I reckon he might be in for a lengthy wait! Appreciate the heads-up on this!

I strongly advise against using this company; I believe it's nothing short of a scam. They informed me I'd been approved for a loan, but demanded an £80 fee upfront, which I paid. Before I knew it, they transferred £550 into my account, only to insist I return it in two installments via Western Union, which I complied with. After that, they assured me the loan would be granted within ten minutes. However, moments later, I received another call insisting I needed to pay an additional £90 from my own funds. I firmly said no, and their tone turned rather aggressive, with them threatening to cut off communication if I didn’t comply. When I attempted to reach out again, they would hang up as soon as I mentioned my name. - Caller: Reena

Today, I submitted a loan application and then received a call from 0151 528 6879. Upon answering, they offered me a £500 loan, which I - being in a bit of a bind after an unanticipated £200 expense - eagerly accepted. They requested a couple of bank statements and my passport, and I thought it all seemed above board, so I proceeded. I sent my documents to [email protected] as instructed during the call, and the chap on the line reassured me that he received everything and would take about 20 minutes to sort it out. I didn’t mind waiting, especially when he chuckled and remarked, “You can't expect to hold on for 20 minutes, I’ve got other clients,” which felt somewhat reassuring (I’m in sales, so I get it). However, curiosity got the better of me, and I decided to look up the number online. Imagine my shock when I stumbled upon this thread! I attempted to ring them back, but there was no answer. Encouraged by my gut feeling, I kept waiting for their return call, but while I was at work, I couldn't pick up, resulting in 22 missed calls! Finally, I decided to tackle it head-on and answered when they called back in private. I confronted them with, “I know your operation is a scam,” to which he replied, “What? That’s absolute nonsense!” ME: “Any respectable company wouldn’t allow staff members to use that sort of language!” HIM: “You’re just a rotten person, and I have your details. Do you understand?” ME: “Hardly, mate! I’ll be reporting you lot...” HIM: “I’ll set up a direct debit for £200... £200! I’ll come for you, I know where you’re based.” ME: “Oh, so you’re threatening to commit fraud, is that it?” HIM: “I’ll find you; you’re out to rob a proper business like before.” ME: “Excuse me? Could you repeat that?” (I had a lawyer pal on the line for support) HIM: “Just piss off… Get lost.” ME: … T_T HIM: “Piss off…” And just like that, the call dropped. Listen, I’m not joking; by the time you read this, it might be too late and perhaps you’ve already given out your details. But if you haven’t yet, please, FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THINGS HOLY, DO NOT SEND ANY MONEY OR PERSONAL INFORMATION! No matter how desperate your situation may appear, these characters are NOT an authentic loan provider or connected to any legitimate lending institution! The name of their scam may differ, so ALWAYS GOOGLE any number before engaging. I’d recommend alerting the police, filing a report with the FCA, or relevant authorities. If you genuinely need a loan, try SafetyNet Credit; they came through for me, even when my credit was in tatters, and I had cash in hand within the hour. I’m not promoting them, just giving you a heads-up! Please stay vigilant out there! - caller: 01515286879

Last Friday, I received a rather dubious call about a loan I had applied for. The person at the other end insisted that I needed to fork out £128 upfront, promising that I wouldn't have to start repayments until November. Then, out of the blue, they requested an additional £209 for a credit check. They assured me I’d have my loan in a mere half-hour after that payment. However, an hour later, when I tried to follow up, I was repeatedly disconnected. When I finally got through, they then demanded another £200 to release the funds. I flat-out refused, only to be told that I couldn't cancel the loan and I'd have to pay up if I wanted any chance of getting my money back. In a state of confusion, I contacted my bank, and they swiftly pointed out that I had fallen victim to a scam. They pretended to have staff members named Logan, Alex Carter, and Robyn. Strangely enough, when my partner called to sort things out, he was told that there was no one by the name of Logan at all! After talking to someone who styled themselves as a "manager"-who sounded suspiciously like the previous operators-I was promised a refund within the hour. Yet, to this day, there's nothing back in my account. My mother confronted these people, stating she’d report them to the police. Their response? “Do what you want; you’re not threatening me.” There was absolutely no threat from her! At just 19, I've unfortunately been naive enough to get entangled in this mess. They were masquerading under the name "Everyday Loans," though their actual name is Best Loans Direct and their website is in a foreign language. I’m absolutely heartbroken over this experience, and I sympathise with anyone else caught in their deceitful web. I'm lodging a report with the authorities and sincerely hope these scammers are brought to justice! - Caller ID: 0151 528 9625

I ended up submitting a loan application online, and the very next day, I received a call from a company claiming to be UK Same Day Loans. They informed me that I’d been approved for a £3,000 loan but insisted that I pay an initial fee of £285 before I could access the funds. I found this all a bit odd and explained that I wouldn't be able to afford that until the next day. The caller suggested that I didn’t really need the loan since I was due to receive some funds shortly-his tone then shifted and became quite abrasive when he requested that I send over my identification. Feeling increasingly uneasy, I decided to withdraw my application and expressed my concerns that this might be a scam. In response, he audaciously claimed that there would be a £500 cancellation fee, which they would deduct from my account within half a minute! When I requested to speak with his supervisor, I was met with even more rudeness. I made it clear I would be contacting my bank to report the matter, to which he audibly scoffed, saying it wouldn’t help as they were about to take the money regardless. I urge everyone to be vigilant regarding UK Same Day Loans. The advisor I dealt with was named "Andrew," and his manager was "Mike Stevens," both apparently operating out of Sri Lanka. They provide you with a reference and account number to create an illusion of legitimacy. Be wary of this number: 01515285413.

It seems I've found myself under suspicion of some dodgy dealings online, thanks to a call from this number. Honestly, it's astonishing how these con artists are getting more absurd with each passing day. - Caller: Classified Bureau

I’m feeling incredibly frustrated and disheartened. It's quite difficult to articulate the mess they’ve created for me with their deceit and underhanded tactics. They've taken advantage of my vulnerable position, leaving me with little recourse, and effectively swindled me out of my hard-earned cash without delivering a thing in return. The offer seemed almost too appealing, but when you're in a tight spot, it’s all too easy to fall for it. If you can, steer clear of Jordan and Samedayloans at 0151 528 4116. Please be on the lookout for these con artists - the number to watch out for is 0151 528 4116.

I’m absolutely chuffed that my instincts urged me to investigate this number further. I had my reservations right from the get-go and fired a barrage of questions at them, but they really fumbled and faltered. I was in dire need of a loan, so I went against my better judgement. Thankfully, my bank prompted me to use a card reader for any transactions, which saved me from potentially getting scammed. When they rang back to check if I had sent the money, I flat out told them I was on to their game and was going to report them to the authorities. They simply cut the call. If anyone comes across this, I implore you to heed my warning and the others as well. These individuals are genuine con artists. Number to watch out for: 0151 5284713 - caller: 0151 5284713.

Hello there. I found myself in a rather sticky situation with what seems to be a somewhat dubious loan company. I consented to a loan of £600, although I’m still unsure of their legitimacy! They initially contacted me, saying I needed to pay £45 upfront, which I did, thinking the funds would be in my account shortly after. However, when I got back in touch, they then claimed an £80 tax fee was necessary. At first, I resisted, but they managed to convince me, warning of a potential £100 penalty if I didn’t comply. After paying that, I was instructed to head to the bank, as they supposedly would transfer £235 into my account to clear the loan, and I was then meant to send that amount back to them. By that point, I had already dished out a total of £125! I agreed to pay back the £235, but there was a hiccup; my bank had closed early that Saturday and wouldn’t reopen until Monday. When I attempted to explain this to them, I was met with aggressive shouting. They threatened to freeze my account and involve the police, accusing me of theft over a situation where I simply cannot access my funds until Monday! Now they’re relentless with their threats. Has anyone been in a similar predicament or have any suggestions on how to handle this? The gentleman in question goes by the name of Johnson Hall, and the number associated with these calls is 0151 528 4713. Cheers for any insight!

Got a call from this number and it felt dodgy right from the word go. Don't get duped, folks! - caller: 0151 528 4713

I've just had the misfortune of losing £500 to a right bunch of rogues who assured me they'd get me a loan tailored perfectly to my situation. They were horrendously rude during the call, dismissively saying things like, "What are you going to do about it, huh? Nothing, that's what!" I was beside myself, in tears, as this was my money meant for Christmas. To top it off, they've now cut off all contact and blocked my number! It's infuriating and utterly helpless, and I can't shake off this sense of dread-my stomach's in knots just thinking about it! - caller: True Loans

On the 6th of December, I fell victim to a scam involving these charlatans who claimed to represent 'Best Loans Direct'. They’ve been absolutely relentless, ringing me from various numbers while disguising themselves under different aliases. Honestly, these unscrupulous muppets need to be brought to justice - it's just infuriating! The number I received the call from was 0151 528 9188.

I’ve just been conned out of £300, completely spoiled my Christmas. I doubt I’ll ever see that money again, those heartless swindlers! It’s beyond me why this phone number is still operational in the UK.

I’ve just fallen victim to a scam and lost £165. I've gone ahead and reported it to Action Fraud. What a delightful start to the festive season for us! - Caller: Truloans

Hello everyone, if you've fallen victim to this unsavoury character, I was on the verge of sending over my cash but thought it wise to double-check first. When I rang him up, he acted as though I'd already made the transfer and started having a go at me. That was enough to put me off parting with my money! Instead, I took the sensible route and reported him to the fraud department. I even managed to track down the bank details he provided. I contacted his bank and, thankfully, they've placed a block on his account, so he can't touch it now. Fingers crossed that this will help some of you recover your losses! The sort code he gave me is 404202 at HSBC in Sidmouth, Devon, and the account number is 31542699. It's crucial to reach out to the police and share your information, especially regarding the frozen account. Hopefully, by contacting the bank, some of you can retrieve your money. Good luck! The number he was calling from is 01515283375.

I’ve recently fallen victim to a scam courtesy of a so-called True Loan company, losing £260 in the process! If you receive a call from them, steer clear!

What a cunning bunch of con artists! I received a call from someone named Roderick Braga, who claimed he could secure me a £2000 loan. All they asked for was a rather suspect £151 as a so-called 'first month payment.' Thank goodness I did my due diligence and checked the number before parting with my cash. I really hope these scoundrels get caught and face the consequences of their deceitful ways!

What an absolute shambles! I was lured into this loan scheme, only to find myself having to fork out an upfront fee of £80. I explained that I couldn’t manage the payment, and mysteriously, they ‘helpfully’ deposited that amount into my bank account, insisting I repay it via Western Union, which I did. Then, they informed me that my loan was all set but required an additional £90 for ‘tax’. I begrudgingly found the funds and sent that off too. Allegedly, the money would land in my account in a mere five minutes-yet here I am, waiting with bated breath and receiving absolutely nothing. I've been on the blower all weekend trying to get through, but all I hear is some automated response saying “busy.” It's incredibly frustrating! What on earth should I do now? - caller: True Loans

I have no idea who these folks are, but they’ve completely taken me for a ride. They're £200 out of pocket with my money, and they flat-out refuse to return it. What a bloomin’ hassle!

Inquiring about a chap named John Gibson. Got told he wasn’t real, and was rather rudely dismissed with a “f*** off.”

I've just fallen victim to a scam perpetrated by this outfit for £115. I'll be lodging a formal complaint and spreading the word to others. They've really spoiled our festive season. - caller: TRUE LOANS!!!
