3 yearsI got two calls from them yesterday. They barely spoke clearly, just said some company name and then rattled off my email, birthdate and address... kept going on about some PPI refund. I quickly said no thanks and hung up. It's really unsettling that they have so much of my personal info :-(3 yearstwice they rang me but never said a word3 yearsGot a call from this number but when I answered, it was dead silence. Definitely one of those annoying spam calls.3 yearsGot a call that went silent - they hung up right after I answered.3 yearsI keep getting calls from this number, sometimes even two times a day, and it’s really starting to annoy me. I’ve gone ahead and blocked it now because it feels like harassment.3 yearsCan someone please get this number to stop ringing me? It's really starting to annoy me.3 yearsI suspect that chap was attempting to fish for my financial information. He asserted he was with Brazier Consultants regarding my PPI claims.Brazier Consultants3 yearsGot a call that beeped two times but when I picked up, there was nothing, just silence on the other end.3 yearsJust got a new phone with a brand new number, never shared it with anyone. Phone’s only been active for a couple of days and already started getting these calls. I’m sure it’s spam since I haven’t given my number out to anyone. They’ve marked it as Neutral, but honestly, it seems pretty dodgy to me - sounds like they’re using some sort of number generator to target anyone who answers.3 yearsGot a call where the person claimed to be from mytaxrefund. I told them that sounded fishy and then I just ended the call. Sorted by blocking the number straight away.3 yearsWithout a doubt, it was just another spammer, so I ended up hanging up and blocking the number right away.3 yearsI just blocked that number, definitely don't answer if it rings you.3 yearsHe already knew my name and email, which he mentioned right away. Then he started asking for my date of birth and home address. He kept insisting he was sending me a cheque for a PPI refund. Didn’t ask for any card info though. Pretty obvious it was a scam. Fishing for personal info, no doubt.3 yearsI tried calling back but the line was dead, so I just ended up blocking the number.8 yearsI got a call from some place called Brazier Consultants, they said they do stuff with PPI claims and can take you off some PPI list that goes back 20 years or something. With Ofcom, GDPR and all the data protection rules now, I’m really wondering how these companies are still even allowed to operate. It feels like the rules should make this all stop.Brazier ConsultantsOfcom8 yearsGot a call from this number yesterday and then again today. Pretty sure it’s just one of those cold calls, so I’ve started to just not pick up. Tried blocking it too, but that doesn’t seem to stop them completely. The number’s 01617381871, Samsung phone. I’m just not answering anymore.Samsung8 yearsThey rang me last Friday and then gave it another go today. I didn't pick up either time and no voicemail was left. Kudos to 'Who called me' for tracking it!8 yearsIf you don’t recognise the number, it’s better to let it go to voicemail. If no message’s left, just block them.8 yearsThey've called me so many times now, I finally picked up just to hear some sort of mumbling in the background before they abruptly hung up. Unfortunately, they haven't stopped pestering me since.8 yearsI thought I blocked this number but they keep leaving voicemails over and over. How on earth are they still getting through?!8 yearsHonestly, really annoying and just plain rude.8 yearsI had no idea who was calling from this number, so I just ignored it and ended up blocking it after.8 yearsThey rang me 4 times all within an hour. Quite annoying!8 yearsI got two calls from someone saying they were from PPI earlier today. When I asked if they had a script, they denied it and said the only script they used was the one they were about to tell me. I didn’t buy it and ended the call after telling them they were scammers.8 yearsLike others have mentioned before, I had a similar experience.8 yearsGot a call from a scammer. When I tried ringing back, all I got was complete silence.8 yearsWatch out for those dodgy PPI calls, nothing but scams.8 yearsJust got a call about a mortgage and credit cards supposedly linked to my place! I haven't even been living here long enough to get anything like that! Feels like I've been mixed up in some dodgy selling.8 yearsThey’ve called me a couple of times already and even knew my name, claiming they found my number in some database? I couldn’t make much sense of what they were saying, something about PPI compensation. I’m pretty sure I never applied for anything like that! They were really pushy, kept trying to pass me to a manager. I told them I wasn’t interested but they just wouldn’t take no for an answer. Ended up hanging up on them and I’ll be blocking the number for sure!8 yearsThey keep ringing but I just dont pick up.8 yearsI got a voicemail from some unknown number saying something like "[indecipherable] called you, no need to be alarmed, we'll ring you back shortly."
