4 yearsI swear these guys use some old school sales tricks from decades ago. No matter how many times I tell them I’m not looking to sell my business - probably close to 50 times by now - they just won’t back off. It’s like they don’t hear the word “no” at all.4 yearsGot a call from a number I didn’t recognise. Looked it up and saw it was flagged for being annoying. So I just blocked it straight away.4 yearsClearly a scammer ringing me up.4 yearsGot a call from KBS claiming to be a consultant working with my boss David. They acted like they already knew him and were supposed to speak, but kept things really hush-hush which felt quite odd.KBSDavid4 yearsI think it’s one of those dodgy telemarketer calls trying to scam you.4 yearsI reckon it was some kind of scam trying to get hold of confidential shareholder details. The person on the phone was really aggressive and quite intimidating.4 yearsIt’s a bit outdated to ring up local businesses and just ask for ‘the shareholder’, like it was done a decade and a half ago. We’re in 2022 now, surely there’s a better way to go about this.4 yearsgot a call from some scammer tryin to get info about my business, total junk call.4 yearsSome guy rang me up claiming to be Richard from KBS corporate, said he wanted to chat with shareholders. But the moment I mentioned I don’t own any shares, he just hung up straight away.RichardKBS4 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from "KBS Corporate" - said his name was Karl. He was really pushy, kept going on about a deal and kept insisting he wanted to speak to the managing director. Weird thing was, he said they’d talked before, but if that was true, why was he calling the reception and not just ringing the MD straight? Felt quite aggressive, like a telemarketer trying to strong-arm a sale.KarlKBS Corporate5 yearsGot a call from some bloke called Daniel, said he was with KBS and wanted to talk about shareholder stuff. Sounded dodgy to me, like a total scam. Be careful if they ring you!DanielKBS5 yearsThe bloke called, knew my name and wanted me to confirm it. I asked him who kbs was before saying anything. He said he couldn’t tell me that unless I confirmed my name first. I told him he’d called the wrong person then hung up. What a load of rubbish. People really should find real jobs.KBS5 yearsGot a call from KBS Corporate, and they were really pushy trying to sell something. Felt like typical cold calling with no chill.KBS5 yearsIt was a private call, definitely not some random spam.5 yearsThis caller sounded urgent, but defo not some spammer. Felt kinda private, y’know?5 yearsGot a call from some telemarketer who sounded dead bored. They wanted to chat with the director about some shareholder issue. I told them I wasn’t gonna connect them since it was an unsolicited call, and that was that.5 yearswe keep getting calls from this company even tho we asked them not to phone us anymore. they kept saying they had to speak to the shareholder about something to do with shares and only the shareholder could deal with it. the guy on the phone was really pushy and not polite at all. such an annoying experience!5 yearsJust had a really uncomfortable phone call from KBS Corporate. They asked to speak to our director, using his full name straight from Companies House. When I asked what the call was about, the person on the phone got quite aggressive and told me it wasn’t my concern, saying it was something to do with shareholders. I ended up hanging up, but it left me feeling quite unsettled. Definitely one of the most awkward calls I’ve had recently.KBS CorporateCompanies House5 yearsGot a ring from someone saying they were from a firm named kbs. They wanted to get hold of the managing director and mentioned it was about some shareholder stuff. They told me they'd tried calling earlier, which was a total fib. You could tell they were in a noisy call centre. Really tired of this lot constantly bothering me.KBS5 yearsThis company called ‘kbs’ keeps ringing me non stop. I asked them to stop but they just keep saying i’m not the one who can decide, that only the shareholder can tell them to stop. Funny thing is, that’s exactly who they’re trying to get hold of!5 yearsGot a call from some bloke named Karl from KBS Corporate who was really pushy and quite rude, insisting he needed to talk just to the shareholders. He claimed he’d already been in touch with them before. Thing is, when I told him no one had any idea who he was or that they’d spoken to him, he got proper nasty. Be careful with that one.KarlKBS CorporateKBS5 yearsGot a call claiming to be from KBS holdings, same as someone else mentioned here. They said they had the genuine email of my boss and told me to just let them email him if it’s really important. Pretty sure it’s just a waste of time though.KBS Holdings5 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were "KBS Holdings." Not sure if that’s legit because I couldn’t spot their number anywhere on the official website.KBS Holdings5 yearsCalled asking for someone by name but never said what it was about and didn't leave a message.5 yearsThey rang me up a couple of times but just dropped the call both times. When I tried to ring them back, it said the number couldn't be found.5 yearsCan anyone tell me who this number belongs to?Submit Your Own Report (0161 425 6361)
