For a while now, I've been getting calls from these folks pretty often. They never bother to leave a voicemail, and I haven’t picked up any of their calls. They seem to switch it up with different numbers too, like 01616674340.

I picked up and the caller said they were from 'Claims Professionals'... Definitely a scam, don't fall for it.

Today, I received a call from this number about PPI. They actually knew my full name and where I live. They mentioned something about companies like Freemans and Kaleidoscope, saying these might have PPI claims too. They also questioned me about credit cards and any goods I’d bought on finance. At first, I was quite willing to listen because it seemed interesting, but it dragged on and I told them I was too busy to continue and asked them to just post me an application form. After that, they rang me 5 more times during the day, but I ignored the calls. Now I’m waiting to see if the form arrives through the post.

They just keep ringing non stop, even tho I never pick up. Now I’ve gone and put their voicemails on my block list too. It’s mad how they still keep trying!

I got a call from this number, but when I picked up, no one said anything... really weird!

This number called me earlier but I didn’t get back to them.

Got a call from what seemed like one of those annoying cold callers, probably trying to push some PPI or claim nonsense. The bloke was really rude, completely arrogant, and didn’t bother listening to a word I said. Honestly, the best thing to do was just talk over him for a bit, then hang up and block the number. Honestly, someone should be keeping an eye on these muppets and making sure they’re held responsible!

Loads of bloody idiots!!! Why dont they go find some real work instead of bombarding us with these annoying cold calls? If you dont say what they want, they just start being rude and swearing like mad!!!!!!!

This number rang me too, and honestly, if you wanna waste their time, just feed them a load of rubbish info. Drag the convo out as much as you can, cover every little thing they ask about. Then, when you’re done, say you’re still confused and want to hear it all over again. Trust me, after that they won’t bother calling no more.

They called saying they were from a recruitment firm, which made sense since I've been sending out loads of job applications lately. But when they started talking about needing my credit card details, it hit me that it was probably a scam.

This number popped up with a missed call, but since there was no voicemail left, it’s pretty clear it wasn’t anything urgent.

Got a call from this number earlier today. The bloke knew my name but was talking so quickly I barely caught what he was saying. After I asked him to repeat himself a few times, he got a bit annoyed. I caught something about insurance or finance, but when I said I've never had any, he snapped, 'Well, you won't f*^king qualify then,' and just hung up on me. Bit rude if you ask me!

I got a call from this number a couple of hours back but couldn’t answer it. Later, I checked the voicemail and it was just some garbled message I couldn’t make out.

This number called me while I was still sleeping, but since there was no voicemail, I’m guessing it wasn’t anything urgent.

Just a heads up, I got a call from 01616670747 and they asked all the exact same questions as someone from 01616670748. Watch out for both of these numbers!

Got a ring from this number, they said it wasn’t urgent and that they’d get back to me in a few days. If I wanted more info, I was supposed to call them back - yeah, no thanks!

Got a ring from this number earlier. The bloke spoke way too fast and had a really strong Mancunian accent. He said he was from some PPI firm, but I had to ask him to slow down and repeat stuff loads of times cause the phone line was awful and he was going way too quick. Proper annoying, and then he started asking if I was alright with passing my info to other companies.

I got a call out of the blue from someone saying they were from Claims Professionals, claiming we should get a refund. It felt dodgy though, cause when I asked more questions, they just ended the call. Definitely seemed fishy to me.

Got a call from this number about an hour back while I was driving, so I picked up on handsfree. I couldn’t quite catch who it was, but I think he mentioned something about Payment Protection Insurance, which is odd because I don’t have any. He kept dropping out when I asked him to repeat himself, then suddenly said he’d ring back later before hanging up. Doesn’t seem legit to me. Be careful if you get a call from this number.

Utterly pointless, just like the previous one. What a total faff!

I keep getting calls from this number, and it’s clear that they're not genuine. Just hang up on them and don’t engage! They're trying to fish for your personal details to file a claim or something dodgy. Stay vigilant!

I just received a call from this number, and the caller refused to reveal their identity or the company they were representing. After some back and forth, they abruptly hung up on us. Quite bizarre, really!

I’ve just noticed that I missed a call from these folks while I was on the landline. It’s baffling how they acquired our mobile number! We’ve never shared it with anyone!

This number incessantly calls, despite us having made it quite clear we weren't interested right from the get-go. It’s rather tiresome, to be honest!

I strongly advise you to avoid this number at all costs; it’s definitely spam! 01616670748 has been nothing but a nuisance. Best to block it!
