3 yearsI'm receiving an incessant stream of calls from 0161 numbers, and every time, there’s silence on the line. Is there no way to put an end to these bothersome calls? Surely, there must be a method to block them effectively?3 yearsI've just received a call from them; what a bunch of time wasters!3 yearsI received a call from someone purporting to be from "First Target Recovery", claiming they could assist me in reclaiming a tax refund related to PPI. I have my suspicions, though; I suspect they might be nothing more than con artists!First Target Recovery3 yearsReally creepy call about some PPI claim, and they seemed to have loads of my personal info already. They got quite insistent when I kept saying I wouldn’t share anything with them. Not a nice experience at all.3 yearsWhy do these people think it's ok to ring me at 8.20 in the morning? Didn’t pick up and now I’ve just blocked another dodgy number.3 yearsThey kept ringing me from First Target Recoveries even after I told them loads of times to stop. I blocked their numbers whenever they called. Would definitely steer clear of them.3 yearsI received a call concerning a PPI claim, and then they tried to discuss a tax rebate. When I kindly expressed my disinterest, the tone shifted dramatically; they became quite aggressive and insisted that I didn’t even grasp the purpose of their call, raising their voice in the process. I’ve since blocked the number, yet they persist in ringing from various other numbers. Quite frustrating, to say the least!3 yearsThere’s this one called First Target Recovery, pretending they’re about PPI claims or something. They ring from loads of different numbers and if you block one, they just use another. I’ve told them to stop ringing me loads of times, but they just don’t listen and keep on calling!First Target Recovery3 yearsThese scammers are such a pain, they call me every single week!3 yearsThey keep ringing me about some PPI scan, like every couple of days or something. Honestly, I don't always have time to pick up. These calls are so annoying, why not just stop bothering and find proper work instead? I end up having to block them!3 yearsThey kept asking for my personal details, I said no and they told me they'd send me a letter.. when will this rubbish finally end?3 yearsThis week alone I've received around 5 calls from Manchester, sometimes twice in the same day. The ending numbers keep changing too. It's getting really annoying, makes me wanna just switch my phone off. Does anyone know if there's an app for iPhones that can detect spam or scam calls? I'm avoiding picking up any calls from numbers I don't have saved, but that means I might miss something important. Fingers crossed, if it's someone legitimate, they'll leave a voicemail.Manchester3 yearsBeen getting loads of calls about PPI lately, always from different Manchester area codes. It’s super annoying how they keep switching numbers but it’s clearly the same scam. Been ignoring most of them now.Manchester3 yearsThis morning I got a call from some firm called First Target Recovery. They wouldn’t tell me their address, just kept saying it was somewhere in Manchester. They claimed it was about a PPI linked to me but couldn't say which company it was with. I told them to take my details off their list straight away.First Target RecoveryManchester3 yearsSo this person called about claiming a tax refund on my PPI, which I’ve already got paid back. They said it was all for HMRI or something like that. They seemed to know loads of my info, but I’m not really sure if it’s for real or just a scam?HMRC3 yearsThey didnt even leave a voicemail.3 yearsI keep getting calls from this number and similar ones, mostly about PPI. Sometimes they ring me like three or four times a week. It's really annoying.3 yearsPPI tax reimbursement inquiry3 yearsIt's just relentless, isn't it? One moment it's Liverpool, and now Manchester's gotten in on the act. I swear, these callers seem to have nothing better to do than to pester us every few minutes. Honestly, it's incredibly frustrating. As someone who’s unwell and getting on in years, I could really do without this incessant harassment. Surely they could find a more productive way to spend their time!LiverpoolManchester3 yearsIt's come to my attention that this dubious organisation is peddling the idea of securing a tax refund regarding a PPI claim. Being in the financial advisory field myself, I can categorically state that such a thing isn’t feasible. What they're hinting at is really just a potential income tax refund, which, if you're eligible, you can easily pursue independently without lining their pockets with exorbitant fees. It's utterly ridiculous! If you suspect you're owed a tax refund, I strongly suggest that you hang up and reach out to HMRC directly instead. Their helpline number is 0300 200 3300, readily available on their official site, and you can even submit your claim online. Do take precautions and make sure to block these fraudsters!HMRCSubmit Your Own Report (0161 738 1675)
