The other evening, we received a total of seven calls from this number between 5 PM and 10 PM GMT. Each time, they rang once and then promptly hung up. Whenever we attempted to return the call, we were met with a busy signal every single time. Quite frustrating, to say the least!

Just like Dave, Ivor, and Jerry, we've come to the conclusion that 39% is quite a hefty amount. Consequently, we won’t be bothering with any forms. Moreover, I doubt these chaps will get back to us now that I’ve answered the call.

I kept getting calls throughout the night, every five minutes, which I ended up missing. So frustrating!

ian: Absolutely a scam! They reached out with offers for loans and to help settle debts - complete trickery!

Just like the previous comments, it seems these folks are claiming that you can reclaim funds because you were wrongly sold payment protection linked to your interest rates. I've got all the necessary details already logged in the system, such as your address, postcode, and contact numbers. They're dispatching a claims pack and imposing a fee of 39% on any successful claims. We'll have to see if there's a registered number or reference that can be validated.

This number keeps cutting us off, and the moment we try to return the call, it’s always engaged. I just had a word with Vodafone, and they claim there’s nothing they can do since it’s not a Vodafone issue. However, they suggested that reporting it to the police or Ofcom might be a wise move. There’s also another number, 02070985550, that’s been ringing us with the same annoying behaviour. It’s absurd, and I’ve noticed quite a few similar comments pop up when you look into it.

Received a couple of calls from this number, then it just hung up. Quite odd, really!

We're constantly getting calls from them... it's absolutely maddening! These individuals just hang up without a word. So infuriating!

Blimey, we received a total of seven calls from this number the other evening, between 5 PM and 10 PM GMT. They rang once, only to hang up right away. Every time we tried to return the call, the line was perpetually engaged. What a nuisance!

We've just received a call from this number. It seems to be representatives from a company trying to recuperate funds associated with banks that have previously charged customers for insurance coverage without their knowledge. I must admit, I’m rather sceptical about the entire situation. They appear to be linked to something called the claims advisory group.

I can't fathom who these people are that keep calling me every evening around six! They never say a word when I pick up the phone. But the moment I try to leave a message, they hang up without a care in the world! It's downright infuriating! I'm tempted to lodge a complaint, but honestly, I've no idea where to start or how to go about it.

Could someone please clarify what this was all regarding?

We received a call from the number 02070603962 on Saturday, 16th October 2010. A lady named Patricia answered, saying she was associated with the Claims Advisory Group, handling matters related to Payment Protection Insurance claims. She provided the number above for us to get in touch. However, each time we attempt to call, it seems to go directly to voicemail, even when we try during the advertised office hours. Could someone please investigate whether this company is legitimate or just another scam?

Our bank has purportedly promised a refund of £1500 for the insurance we paid over the past few years, right from the moment we secured our loan. However, the figure they’ve thrown around seems to be roughly three-quarters of what we initially borrowed, which strikes us as utterly implausible. Frankly, we’re quite skeptical about their intentions-one would do well to exercise caution with these individuals!

Received a call from this number, claiming that someone is due a refund of £1500 for an overpaid loan. They were asking for personal details, which we were not prepared to give.

The same thing occurs as previously mentioned... constantly engaged whenever you try calling back.

I'm in the same boat, to be honest. These folks insisted on getting our PO box number and then said they’d be in touch once they had it. When we asked why, they mentioned they needed it to kick off the claim process without delay. They also wanted our mobile number and email address (which we chose not to provide). Then, they handed us over to their manager for a so-called verification of our identity. It all feels rather suspicious to us, to say the least.

Are you possibly in league with them?

Alright, folks, let's think about this sensibly for a moment, shall we? What on earth could these individuals do with your address apart from sending you some sort of literature? We’ve engaged with them and sent their materials back, and I’ve successfully recouped £3,000. Honestly, we reckon they’ve provided a solid service! The next time they ring you up, why not give them a chance to elaborate on how their offerings can work in your favour? I genuinely believe this could be advantageous for you too. Cheers, Sash.
