Weird, innit?7 yearsGot a call but when I picked up there was just silence on the other end!7 years"Hello, this is about your accident." "Um, what accident are you referring to?" "The car crash you were in recently." "I don’t recall ever being in a car accident." Then the call just ended.7 yearsphone buzzed but no one spoke, couldn’t really say anything to them, just caught some shouting in the back ground.7 yearsI picked up and all I could hear was someone chuckling on the other end, then they just cut off. These calls drive me mad, they never stop. I keep blocking the numbers but they keep ringing anyway.7 yearsPut them straight on the block!7 yearsGot a call from a woman, she asked for my name and then just ended the call.7 yearsSo, I got a call inquiring about my Xbox, and shortly after, I received another one concerning some car accident or damage. Quite puzzling, really!7 yearsGot calls about car crashes, total scam. Just blocked the number.7 yearsSome guy called saying I'd been in a car crash. I told him I dont even have a car and cant drive. Really poor timing too, coz a family member aged just 12 was knocked down and died less than a week ago. After a bit of silence, he just hung up on me.7 yearsGot a call from a very nasty woman saying I was part of a car accident! I told her I wasn’t and she just slammed the phone down. She was proper cheeky and rude to me!7 yearsThey claimed they got my phone from the MIB (Motor Insurance Bureau). If you have a look at the MIB’s website, they actually admit there’s scammers pretending to be them. Never give any details to this lot when they ring you.MIBMotor Insurance Bureau7 yearsGot multiple calls from this number but no voicemail was left. Decided to block it after looking it up here.7 yearsI keep putting these pesky Manchester numbers on block but they just call from a different one.

Nah, the last car accident I was in was over 50 years ago.7 yearsI’m absolutely exasperated with this number that keeps ringing me. Whenever I pick up, they just drop the call. It’s becoming quite tiresome dealing with these persistent nuisances!7 yearsRTC When I asked him about it, he just said ‘oh, you’re one of those snobby b###ards’ and then hung up on me.7 yearsPicked up the phone but no one said anything, so I ended the call. They called back and it was the same thing. I’m pretty sure it’s just one of those annoying nuisance calls!7 yearsGot a call from RTC UK claiming to be with the Motor Protection Bureau. As soon as I questioned them, they just ended the call. Felt like one of those road accident scam calls to me.RTC UKMotor Protection Bureau7 yearsThey kept ringing non stop so I finally picked up. They told me I'd been in an accident and could get some sort of compensation. I pretended for a bit, saying the crash was so bad I couldn’t even recall it, so surely I could make a claim? The call lasted quite a while before they twigged I wasn’t taking it seriously. Then they started swearing and hung up. Blocked the number now but I’m sure they’ll try again from a different one.7 yearsI just got a call from this number and it’s total scam. They were saying they would charge me £3,000 for some accident I supposedly had two years ago, but i never had any accident at all. It’s shocking how they even got my name and my phone number. This is really worrying, can’t believe stuff like this is going on.7 yearsTHIS NUMBER 0161-0293-04881 IS A SCAM, DO NOT PICK UP, I HAVE BLOCKED THEM ALREADY!7 yearsHad no clue who it was since I didn’t pick up, but I figured it was nothing legit because only my closest family members have my number.7 yearsJust got a call asking if I’d been in an accident. I told them no, then they just ended the call. Direct Response doesn’t seem very professional to me.7 yearsI just got a call from this number and it was some scammers asking for my credit card details, saying I owe £3,000 for a crash they claim I had 2 years ago. Thing is, I never had any accident back then. It’s really scary how they got my name and phone number. Honestly, I can’t believe stuff like this is happening nowadays.7 yearsGot a call from someone saying they're calling about damage to my car. Didn't seem legit, so I just blocked the number.7 yearsCheers to this website for giving us a heads up about these scammers.7 yearsSomebody rang my 10 year old lad asking about an accident he supposedly had. Once my son said he was only 10, the caller started making creepy sexual comments and then just cut the call.7 yearsGot a call from 0161 293 4881 claiming I'd been in an accident. When I asked for details on when it supposedly happened, they got really rude and just cut me off. Proper cheeky 😠7 yearsAnswered the call but nothing was said, just silence.7 yearsAnother bloody loon, honestly they should be lined up and dealt with properly.8 yearsI gave them my company name and they said they wanted to make an order. They’ll say whatever just to get you chatting. Totally pointless!8 yearsI keep getting calls intended for my son's mate, who's been linked to my number since I helped him sort out his car insurance nearly a decade back. Quite the tricky situation!8 yearsSomeone said they had my details from an accident I was involved in. They kept using my old surname and wouldn’t accept me saying no, so I just ended the call.8 yearsThey've been ringing me nonstop for days, but I just haven't picked up. I've ended up blocking the number now.8 yearsNo response when I answered, so I'm guessing it's the same deal as everyone else. Going to block the number.8 yearsThey rang up claiming to be from direct response. I told them I've never had any accidents or filed any claims. They cut me off and said it was about an unpaid electric bill over £3000. I explained I’m a renter and we have our own electric meter, so there’s no way there could be an outstanding bill. I asked them to take my info off their system. Then they said alright, they’d send bailiffs round and just hung up on me.Direct Response8 yearsInsurance scams, a bit different this time. Instead of straight away asking if I was hurt, they tried a new tactic about getting feedback on a courtesy car. I had a bit of fun with them, asking questions, and they ended the call pretty quick. I’m sure they were gonna try the usual "were you hurt" routine next. Just to be clear, I’ve never been in any accident or had one of those courtesy cars.8 yearsI chose not to pick up and checked this site beforehand! I’ve had a call like this before, picked up and just heard silence. I ended the call straight away. It’d be good to find out who’s passing on or selling our phone numbers.8 yearsThey called me up and asked for me by name, said they were from some vehicle damage company called Direct Response. I told them they’d got the wrong number and just ended the call.8 yearsPicked up the phone, no one said a word. Just silence. Ended up blocking the number.8 years0161 293 4881 ring me every single day but they just stay quiet when i answer, proper annoying!8 yearsGot a call from this number earlier today @ 1:01pm 23/1/2019 on my mobile, a woman answered and only said hi then asked for me by my first name. When I asked for her to say who she wanted using my full name, she just ended the call. So I checked here to see if others got calls from this number and looks like loads of people have been called too.8 yearsGot a call from someone with a Scouse accent who suddenly asked for “Stephanie Robinson”. I told them they’d got the wrong number, and they just cut off without saying anything. I've had almost the exact same call before from like a bunch of similar numbers, all looking for the same lady.LiverpoolStephanie Robinson8 yearsThey rang me like 5 times today, I missed them all. Tried calling back cos I thought it was the bank, but now I’m guessing better not pick up next time. Cheers for the heads up!8 yearsThis number rang my little girl and ended up calling her names and being really horrible. Ive blocked it now so it cant bother us again. Hope the cops manage to track these people down, loads of others have said similar things about this number.8 yearsI got a call from this number but luckily my phone stopped it from coming through.8 yearsThat 0161 code is for Manchester, not Liverpool which is 0151. They've called me twice over the past few days. Both times I picked up, the call just dropped straight away.ManchesterLiverpool8 yearsFraud alert - someone’s fishing for information about a supposed car accident that never took place.8 yearsGot a call from someone named Craig at Direct Response, and when I asked where he found my number, he just dropped the call. Really annoying, these unwanted calls should be illegal or something, reckon you should be able to take action against them.CraigDirect Response8 yearsGot a number from Liverpool so figured it would be some chav ringing about an accident they reckon I was in. I just let it go to voicemail and since they didn’t bother leaving a message, I’m pretty sure I handled it well.Merseyside8 yearsthere was a bit of silence then the call just ended. i guess its one of those automated systems with no agents available to pick up my (or should i say their) call.8 yearsThis number’s been blocked by some insurance scammers. It was a woman with really bad English calling, and she said she was from Manchester. Honestly, if they wanna work here, why not find a proper job instead of doing these dodgy calls?ManchesterUK8 yearsSome bloke ringing me up about a car crash I never got involved in.8 yearsThere was a brief silence before a bloke with a Scouse accent from 'Direct Response' started asking about some damage to my car. I humoured him for a bit, then just ended the call. BLOCKED straight away.8 yearsA person calling from 'Direct Response' rang me out of the blue, asking about a road incident supposedly within the last couple of years. I mentioned one accident that came to mind. Once they figured out I wasn’t connected and it wasn’t my car, they just ended the call abruptly without another word. Bit rude, if you ask me. I'd steer clear of anyone calling from that company if you get a ring from them.Direct Response8 yearsI picked up and just said a simple hello, then after a brief pause a bloke with a scouse accent said “Why would dey do dat?” and hung up straight away, no sorry or anything. It’s obvious he was already chatting with someone else when he rang me. I’ve now put this number on my growing blocked list. It really winds me up when people can’t even bother to say “Oops, wrong number” or something like that!8 yearsShe knew my name straight away and started asking about some damage to my car. Stuff like if it had been fixed, how long it took, and if I’d been given a courtesy car. After a bunch of questions, she just said ‘okay thanks, I’ll get this sorted for you’ then hung up. Said she was calling from the motor insurance bureau or something along those lines. Bit odd really, but I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number now.8 yearsGot a call about 30 mins ago but I didn’t pick up. The caller ID showed Manchester, and since I’m headed there soon for a training and just reserved a hotel there recently, I tried calling back twice but the call cut off before it even started ringing. I’m relieved I looked up the number online, otherwise I’d be stressing if it was about my course or hotel. Seems like loads of folks are getting calls from this number today!Manchester8 yearsSomeone said they were Tracey from Direct Response and asked if I’d recently told anyone about accident damage on my car. When I just asked “why?”, they ended the call immediately. Honestly, it’s better to just be straight with these leeching companies - the folks on the phone are probably earning way below what they deserve, so it’s not really their fault. The moment you step away from their script, they don’t know how to handle it.TraceyDirect Response8 yearsGot a call from a claims centre using my old surname from a decade back. Some accident assistance service. No thanks, BLOCKED.8 yearsI just don't pick up if the number ain’t saved in me contacts, I got no time for random calls.8 yearsComplete scammers. Heard that old story about an accident that supposedly never took place. It’s all about fishing for your personal info and in the end your bank details, promising a big payout that won’t ever arrive - just a way to clean out your account. Stay well clear of these lot.8 yearsInstant red flag! Complete con artists! Stay clear and block them immediately.8 yearsShe called, knew my name and phone number, but when I asked where she found my info, she just ended the call. Surely there's got to be some way to hold these scammers accountable. It's a landline, so it should be easy enough to link it back to a location.8 yearsSome bloke from “AMC” called me and was proper rude, wouldn’t say how he found my number and was really insulting. Just ignore if they ring you.AMC8 years01612934881 rang me on my phone just now. When I picked up, a lady asked if she could speak to... then paused before saying my name. I told her it was clear she didn’t know who she was calling, and then she hung up straight away!!!8 yearsTotal con artists, they just invent a company and what they do on the spot, absolutely full of rubbish. Best to give them a wide berth, no doubt about it.8 yearsAw, those poor desperate people calling! They really ought to find better jobs that make them happy!8 yearsThey rang me loads of times last night but when I picked up, nothing but silence on the other end.8 yearsDidn’t pick up since I was just checking the number while they were calling, no voicemail left, happy I didn’t answer, now it’s blocked.8 yearsGot a call about car damage but they butchered my name.
