9 yearsMy spouse got a call addressed to him, claiming there was some incident involving a car crash. Oddly enough, he doesn’t even drive! What a peculiar situation!9 yearsDidn’t pick up, but got a call the same day to my neighbour too. Typical scam stuff. If they ring me again, they’re in for a proper shock!9 yearsI got a call about some fake car crash too, like others have mentioned. I noticed people are leaving comments here praising their ‘help’, but heads up - the law firm they mentioned is actually a huge legal company in London. Trust me, they’re not happy about these shady moves. So unhappy, in fact, they’ve reported it to the Serious Fraud Office. I doubt the scammers even know what that’s about!LondonSerious Fraud Office9 yearsJust had a right laugh with a chap who claimed to be Steven McWilliams, a supposed solicitor from RT Solicitors. No surprise, I’ve looked it up, and lo and behold, they’re a phantom firm! Quite amusing really. He had the cheek to know my name and start prattling on about a car accident. I couldn’t resist, so I told him I’d passed away (classic, right?), and he promptly hung up. Honestly, these scam callers are relentless! I’ve saved his number as “Car Accident Con” in my contacts. I reckon next time I might just keep him chatting to really waste his time. What a hoot!Steven McWilliamsRT Solicitors9 yearsGot a call claiming I’d been in some accident within the last few years. Told the person to send me all the info by post since he didn’t have my actual address. Luckily, I had caller ID, but the caller dropped the call before I could jot anything down. Glad the 1471 service came through for me. Sadly, some people will still end up getting duped. The TPS doesn’t seem to be much help at all.Kudos9 yearsGot a call from some guy called Steven McWilliams, sounded like an Asian bloke, claiming he was from RT Solicitors - oh, and 0161 is a Manchester number, but turns out they’re not even real. He said he wanted to chat about my car accident and somehow already knew my name. I told him I’d actually died, so he ended up hanging up. I’m absolutely fed up with these scam calls. I’ve saved the number as “car accident scam” on my phone now, so next time I might just mess with them a bit and drag it out to waste their time.Steven McWilliamsRT SolicitorsManchester9 yearsReceived a rather unsettling call earlier tonight. The chap on the line not only knew my name-something I hadn't disclosed-but went on about an accident involving my car being rear-ended. "I'm certain you recall it," he claimed, but honestly, I don’t know what he's on about. I informed him he had the wrong individual and kindly wished him farewell. It's imperative that these unsolicited calls come to an end.9 yearsHad a call from someone claiming to be from a Manchester law firm, offering help with compensation for a car crash in the past three years. They gave me a company name, so I looked it up online and phoned them directly. Turns out, the real firm is in Somerset, not Manchester, and they said it’s a known scam going around. I’m on the TPS list as well, but that clearly didn’t stop this. I’m planning to report it to the ICO soon.ManchesterSomersetTelephone Preference ServiceInformation Commissioner ' s Office9 yearsI’ve gotta say, the "Caller ID" on my mobile is spot on. Whenever I see numbers like 01612650017 pop up, I just don’t pick up. They never bother leaving a voicemail either. It’s like they’re just spinning their wheels and typing away for nothing!9 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be lawyers saying someone at my address had an accident last year. Hung up straight away and won’t be picking up if they call back. No one here has had any accident. If they’re truly solicitors, they really should be disciplined for pestering and chasing clients like that.9 yearsI keep getting calls from these lot - it’s like they never stop! The callers always rave about how great their service is, but I just tell them straight: I’ll only deal with them if they give me their full name, address, phone number, and a website. That way, if I ever want to actually get in touch, I won’t be stuck guessing who they are. Honestly, I doubt I’ll ever need to call back though!9 yearsGot a call from someone pretending there was an accident in the family, total scam!9 yearsYet again, I received a call from a voice with a distinct accent asserting that someone in my home had met with an accident. Honestly, do these scammers not tire of being ignored or shouted down? It's quite astonishing!9 yearsGot a call from a bloke named Jaz claiming he was a solicitor and said I’d been in an accident. I told him I wasn’t involved in anything like that but he just wouldn’t accept it. Proper annoying!Jaz9 yearsI received a call from this number at around 18:15, inquiring whether we had been in an accident. I promptly hung up and have since blocked the number.9 yearsI got a call from this number around 6.15pm and the caller was asking if I'd been in an accident. I just hung up straight away and blocked the number after that.9 yearsI called 01612650017 after they rang me, and someone picked up saying they got my number from the Police's road traffic department about a car crash last June - which I’ve never been involved in. They claimed they could help me claim loads of money. When I started asking more questions, they suddenly admitted it was a mix-up. Honestly, if you fancy calling that number and having a bit of fun messing about with them, go for it!9 yearsGot a call from 01612650017 on 20th Feb 2017. The person sounded foreign and said they were a solicitor about a car crash. I just ended the call straight away. We're supposed to be listed on the TPS, but it doesn’t appear to be doing anything to block these calls.TPS9 yearsMy elderly mum, who’s 90, got a call from someone saying she’d been in an accident. She got really confused and worried, so she phoned me, her daughter, all stressed out.9 yearsIf I’m being frank, when that first call came through, I assumed it was an international number, so I hung up. They promptly called me back, and in a fit of frustration, I yelled for them to remove my number from their records and to cease all communications with me. It's quite maddening, isn't it?9 yearsI haven’t filed any claims or been in any accidents, so please stop bothering me.9 yearsAt first, I figured the call was coming from overseas, so I just hung up on it. Then they called me back right away, and I told them to leave me alone, not to phone me anymore, and to delete my number from their list.9 yearsI've been inundated with persistent calls from a company pressuring me to seek compensation for a supposed personal injury stemming from a car accident. It's relentless, and despite my clear disinterest, they refuse to take my rejection at face value. They claim that pursuing a claim won't cost me a penny-what a myth! The tactics employed by this solicitor firm are dubious at best, and they're only adding to the already soaring insurance premiums we all have to grapple with. I've told them time and again that I'm not keen on their services. Yet, it seems the only method to shake their grip is to feign interest in making a claim, which I'm absolutely not going to do.9 yearsReceived a phone call today from a chap sporting a foreign accent. He mentioned something about a car crash linked to an address he gave. I informed him that I neither drive nor own a vehicle, and then he abruptly ended the conversation.9 yearsReceived a call from 0161 2650017, bloke said he was Kelvin, a solicitor, mentioned I’d been in an accident. Told him I hadn’t, and he just ended the call straight away.Kelvin9 yearsI received a dodgy call from this number earlier today regarding an alleged car crash.9 yearsIsn’t it funny how some people have so much free time they spend it on sites like this? I mean, what exactly do you do that’s so amazing for the world? Just makes me wonder, really.9 yearsI'm on the TPS list as well and this morning alone I've had three annoying calls. I've not been involved in any car crashes, so if our insurance firms are handing over our details to these callers, there should really be some law against sharing our private info without asking us first. What else can we do to keep ourselves safe from this?Telephone Preference Service9 yearsGot a call from someone calling themselves Simon at RE Solicitors, said he was ringing from London but the 1471 showed a Manchester number. He was talking about a motor accident. Didn't seem to care at all that I'm on the TPS, so I just told him to quit bothering me and stop wasting time.SimonRE SolicitorsLondonManchesterTelephone Preference Service9 yearsI picked up the call but there was silence at first, then some automated voice said "farewell." I'm registered on the TPS, so I really shouldn't be getting calls like this annoyance.Telephone Preference Service9 yearsThis whole post just comes off as lame spam from someone clearly struggling. Honestly, I hope your family’s proud of whatever you’re doing. Maybe try finding a real job instead?9 yearsA guy with an Indian accent called me saying I’d been in an accident in the past three years, which isn’t true at all. I was planning to keep him on the line while I caught up on some TV, but he ended up hanging up first!9 yearsMy 90-year-old sister got called by this number two times today about some accident. It really stressed her out quite a bit.Submit Your Own Report (0161 265 0017)
