8 yearsGot a really impolite woman trying to sell me PPI, and when I asked her how she got my details, she dodged the question and just said I must have agreed to be contacted somewhere. I told her with the new GDPR rules coming in, that’s not allowed - I’m entitled to know where my info’s from, how they use it and keep it safe. She insisted it wasn’t true and said I wasn’t hearing her right. Quite frustrating really :(9 yearsTotal rip off, they threatened that if I didn’t redo my PPI claim (which I already settled) they’d tell my bank to hold back any payments owed. I work in finance and told them I’d be reporting it to the FCA.FCA9 yearsJust block their number and dont bother answering.10 yearsGot a call saying my computer had a virus, but I don’t even have one since I just use my phone and ipad for everything. When I said I didn’t own a computer, the bloke tried arguing and insisted I did, then said he’d block it or summat. Proper muppet, honestly!10 yearsSome bloke with an accent called asking for the business owner about Utility Bills. I said the owners weren’t around and he then wanted to speak to someone managing the bills. I told him they were all out working calls. He just hung up straight away. Complete waste of time. Sounded like a call centre to me.10 yearsThis number keeps ringing me like three times every day! I’ve told them to take me off their list but they haven’t bothered. Proper annoying!10 yearsBeen getting about 4 calls every day, all of which I usually just let ring. Decided to pick up today and was met with a loud call centre in the background. Apparently it's from some car firm claiming I was in a no fault crash, but they said it happened in 2014, when actually it was back in ‘09. Then they rattled off my full name, address and even my landline number. Told me some paperwork's on the way. Feels dodgy as hell, and kinda terrifying they’ve got all my details. How on earth?!10 yearsGot a call from them outta nowhere. Used the Mr Number app to block it straight away. Lucky I didn’t pick up.10 yearsReceived yet another bothersome call, this time from a number in Manchester. What a pain!Manchester10 yearsThis number has been ringing me for weeks now, but I just don’t pick up. They never bother to leave a voicemail either. It’s really annoying. Luckily, I’ve only had about 8 calls from them in the past month. Blocked now for good!10 yearsThey call me loads of times each day but never leave a message. The government really should step in and shut these companies down.10 yearsReported to the police! Been getting calls on and off for about a month now. A bloke rang saying I'd been in an accident two years ago, which is total rubbish. When I tried to question where they got that from, he just cut me off. Tried ringing back but couldn’t get through. I looked up Auto Solutions Manchester and called them to sort it out. The guy at Total Auto Solutions (different firm) said loads of people have called about the same thing and someone’s pretending to be them. He’s taken down the number that called me and is now getting in touch with the police about it.Auto SolutionsManchesterTotal Auto Solutions10 years0161 641 7156 rang me twice today and again twice yesterday claiming I was in a car accident. I told them no the first time and just ended the call after. Im defo going to block this number, they’re really annoying.10 yearsGot a call from this number just now. Nobody said a word, I hung on for about half a minute before I ended the call.

Does anyone know if there’s somewhere to report these harassing calls?10 yearsComplete scam, honestly. I answered once and they promised to remove me from their calling list. Now, I just avoid picking up if I see the number. The last time I accidentally answered, they kept going on and on even after I said I hadn't been in any accident. This time, I decided to try out the block calls function on my Android and see if that stops them.10 years0161 641 7156 kept ringing me loads today so I just blocked the number now.10 yearsSomeone rang up asking for my brother about a small car accident. I said he doesn’t even own a car so there's no way it could be him. They just kept going on and wouldn’t stop.10 yearsThey've rang me about 4 times this week asking stuff about a car crash, but I've never been involved in any. They don’t even knw what car I own or when their so called accident even happened. Proper pain in the neck scammers!10 yearsNo clue who that was. Every time I picked up, they just cut off straight away. Rang me 3 times today, but dropped the call as soon as I said hello each time.10 yearsNot a clue who this is 'cause I never pick up when I don't know the number. They keep ringing like 3 or 4 times every day.10 yearssome calls just hang up on me without a word, but today this bloke with a strange accent called saying i could get compo for an accident. he kept going on about cash set aside for it and asked when the accident was. i let him ramble for a bit, then told him he was talking rubbish and told him to jog on. he ended up calling me names, what a joke!10 yearsThis number has rung me like 8 times now today. I usually ignore calls from unknown numbers, but if they ring yet again, I might just pick up cos it’s getting pretty annoying.10 yearsThey just call and drop the line immediately.10 yearsBeen gettin around three calls each day from this number. When I asked for a supervisor, they said it was a call centre based in South Africa, working for a firm in Manchester. I phoned Total Auto Solutions in Manchester and they said they've never outsourced their calls overseas; seems like a total scam to me.South AfricaManchesterTotal Auto Solutions10 yearsI've been getting calls multiple times daily. Usually, I ignore numbers I don't know but I've had enough, gonna answer next time and tell them to buzz off!10 yearsThey keep calling then hanging up, drives me mad. If I could find their location, I'd probably drop by and sort it out.10 yearsThis number keeps calling my mobile, and I don’t pick up. Yet, they persist with the ringing! It's so annoying, honestly! 😂10 yearsGot a call about an accident I supposedly had in the past couple years. When I asked when it was, they said they didn’t know! So why bother calling then? I’ve blocked the number but they keep ringing literally every day for the last three weeks!10 yearsAuto solutions? Whenever I pick up they just hang up straight away and they call from pretty much the same number each time. Total #SCAM!10 yearsTotal muppet!
