Totally scammers!

They just won’t stop calling, I keep having to block them!!!

They called me 4 times today and I ignored it. On the 5th try, I answered - turned out to be those dodgy PPI scammers once more.

Got three calls from this same number within about an hour and a half. From what I’ve seen, if someone really wants to reach you, they don’t hang up after just a few rings and usually leave a voicemail. My advice to anyone worried about unknown callers is to look up the number on sites like this one. It’s a good way to know if it’s legit and feel a bit safer. Friends who’ve checked said the callers weren’t genuine - they were after personal info, claiming it was about PPI claims. DON’T FALL FOR THESE PPI SCAM CALLS! THEY’RE JUST TRYING TO TRICK YOU! WATCH OUT!!!

I've been receiving calls from this number repeatedly, yet they never bother to leave a voicemail. Best to disregard it entirely, as it’s likely just another nuisance caller.

Still going on from yesterday. They keep switching between a mobile and a new ex-directory landline. I got the mobile calls recorded at 10:33, 14:01, 15:21, and 16:30. When they ring the landline, it just goes to answerphone then they cut off.

They keep ringing the landline first then as soon as there’s no answer they try my mobile. This is the fifth time today! I’ve only just shifted into this place and have no idea how they got hold of both my numbers.

I've received calls from this number a staggering twenty times, and each time I’ve picked up, there's been no one at the other end of the line. I'm absolutely fed up with this nonsense! Even after blocking, they simply switch to a different number to harass me again. It's become a never-ending cycle-I’ve had to block as many as forty different numbers from such nuisances. The frustrating thing is, no matter what you do, they just keep popping up with fresh digits. One moment they’re pestering me about PPI, and the next, it’s some absurd claim about having been in an accident. Honestly, these scammers really ought to face some serious legal consequences for their antics!

I’ve received a relentless barrage of calls from this number-twenty times, to be exact-yet there’s never a soul on the other end. It’s become utterly tiresome! Even when I block this particular nuisance, they simply switch to another number, and here I am, with forty blocked numbers on my list! The crux of the matter is, you can never truly rid yourself of them; they just morph into new digits. Whether it’s about PPI or some alleged accident, it’s always the same old routine. Honestly, these persistent callers deserve to face legal action!
