Can't believe it, got another call about PPI claims. I told this bloke Michael loads of times to leave me alone. They just don't take a hint, do they? Honestly, feels like they enjoy pestering folks nonstop!

This number has rung me a bunch of times but there’s never anyone when I pick up. After reading some of the comments here, I’ve decided to block it. I reckon they’ll probably try again soon, just with a slightly different number.

They asked for loads of personal stuff - National Insurance number, date of birth, email address and all that, saying they were helping with PPI tax refund claims. The first caller said she was from Aurora, then a bloke came on saying he was with First Friendly. When I asked for their website so I could have a proper look, they just ended the call right away.

Got a call about some dodgy PPI thing. Told her I never got any PPI refund and asked if all that stuff wasn't done by now. She insisted they’re still sorting out some refund stuff. I told her it’s nothing to do with me. Then she tries saying they probably mixed up my details. Yeah, sure mate.

Just a heads up, this number is definitely a scam, dont waste your time!

The person called about my PPI said everything was already being handled. When I said that, she just said alright and hung up. Feels like it could’ve been some kind of scam.
