I'm living abroad in Thailand and kept getting unwanted calls about pensions from this Manchester number. It was really annoying so in the end, I just blocked it.

What I've done with TRS Pensions on the couple of times they've rang me is just put the phone down and let them go on like they're chatting to thin air! But now, I've switched to sending their calls straight to voicemail.

Getting calls every day from 0161-660-7337. I’m based in Canada and they keep phoning me at my job. From what I’ve read on here, looks like they found me through LinkedIn. Problem is, my personal info isn’t on there, so I reckon they called the company I work for and asked for my direct line. These idiots did the same thing last year and the year before that too. Now I just don’t pick up when they ring at work - no clue how to block them on a work phone. They never bother leaving a voicemail either.

It seems I've fallen victim to some dodgy pension con artists who clearly managed to get hold of my number through questionable means. They insist it came from LinkedIn, but I've never disclosed my phone number on any social media platform at all! It’s rather alarming to think how they’ve acquired my details.

They say they're from TRS pensions but got my number in a dodgy way and lied about where they got it from. Stay clear!

These pension scammers are getting my number from somewhere, but it’s definitely not LinkedIn, as I never shared it there. When I confronted them about the source and denied it came from LinkedIn, I even suggested they might be acting illegally to get my details. Their reply was basically that I shouldn't have made my number public (which I absolutely haven’t), and then they just hung up on me.

I received a call from someone purporting to represent TRS pensions, and they mentioned they'd sourced my number from LinkedIn. The trouble is, I don’t share my contact details with LinkedIn, which makes me suspicious about how they got hold of my information. I’m currently on a quest to find out where the breach occurred...

I've been receiving calls from this number at my workplace, and now they’ve started hounding me on my mobile. Although I'm based in Ireland now, I previously worked in the UK. They claim they're here to assist with 'liberating' your UK pension funds. Being in the industry myself, I have plenty of resources at my disposal for sound advice. I’ve made it abundantly clear multiple times that I don’t require their so-called 'assistance'. It’s baffling how they managed to get my mobile number in the first place - they just won't take no for an answer. I can’t quite put my finger on whether it’s a scam, but I'm well aware that their charges would probably be astronomical and their guidance may not be the wisest. Best to steer clear!

I'm receiving persistent calls at my workplace from an unknown number, and they don’t bother to leave their name. My assistant managed to note down the digits, so I’m contemplating whether to ring them and demand they back off. However, I'm wary it could be some sort of dodgy premium rate scheme. Any thoughts or advice from anyone?

I received half a dozen calls throughout the past week after opening a youinvest SIPP. The only way to stop third-party calls appears to be by sending them an email to block it. I didn’t answer any of the calls, but I suspect it’s all tied to the pension theme. I suppose they’ve got to make their commission somehow...

Just like others have said, I got a message on LinkedIn from a recruiter who seemed legit, appeared in my network and was even recommended. They wanted a quick intro call. Then the following day, the ringing started daily. Even after I told them I wasn't interested, the calls just didnt stop. Oddly enough, no more messages from the recruiter themselves!

I was pretty annoyed to get a call like that - LinkedIn does not mean they can just cold call me! And it's not just one UK firm, De Veere phoned me too about the very same thing. What worries me is how they managed to find my Irish mobile number since I've never put that on LinkedIn anywhere.

When I tried to get back to them, it just said the number "hasn't been assigned" or something like that. Proper grateful for this site - "who called me" is ace.

Living in France, I’ve just had an encounter with a classic “telephone nuisance.” This caller dialled my unlisted number and claimed she discovered my digits through Facebook-not a chance, as my number is well-hidden from prying eyes. But she waffled on, mentioning something about being from CRS or CLS (I couldn't quite catch it amidst her chatter) and insisted she was reaching out to assist me in liberating a UK pension. To put things into perspective, I’m in my forties, and I happen to work for the fraud investigation unit at a well-known bank. As soon as I dropped that little detail, she seemed to lose all interest in conversing and promptly wanted to end the call. Quite amusing, really!
