3 yearsI've been receiving persistent calls where there's no one on the other end, just this eerie heavy breathing. It's quite unsettling, to say the least!3 yearsI recently had a rather dodgy encounter with a fella claiming to be Mark. He rang me up insisting I had a PPI payout of £4800 waiting for me from Santander. He had the gift of the gab, sounding all too convincing and quite the professional. Thankfully, I saw through the ruse - what a scam!MarkSantander7 yearsThey’re just looking for a way to take advantage of you in the worst possible way. Honestly, feels like they’re out to mess you over completely.7 yearsI usually don’t pick up calls from numbers I don’t recognise and just block them straight away, but even when I block a number, my phone still notifies me if that blocked number tries calling. They just keep ringing non-stop, it’s so annoying!7 yearsDodgy call, straight to block.7 yearsAbsolutely ridiculous!7 yearsI couldn't care less about these idiots.7 yearsI answered, but there was nobody on the other end. I’ve just gone ahead and blocked the number now.7 yearsReceived a call on my mobile but they dropped as soon as I picked up. Then I tried ringing back from another number, but no answer at all.7 yearsFor ages now, these folks keep ringing me, but I've never picked up. At one point, I almost got tricked by a firm with a very similar number. Because of that, I make sure not to answer any calls that even seem like they're from them. I'm pretty convinced they've got loads of different numbers they use. Weirdly, I feel like my phone kinda won't let me block their calls, like it's been set up that way somehow. Since I can't make the calls stop, best I can do is ignore them and hope it ends up costing them somehow.7 yearsI looked up 'My Financial Claims Ltd' on Companies House and found their registered office at the Former Courthouse, Margaret Street, Ammanford, Carmarthenshire, SA18 2NN. They’re still listed as active and are a private limited company, set up back in September 2015. Funny thing is, their accounts are seriously overdue - last filed was due by June 2019 for the year ending September 2018. Seems like they’re more focused on grabbing cash from people than keeping up with their HMRC tax payments!Companies HouseMy Financial Claims LtdFormerCourthouseMargaret StreetAmmanfordCarmarthenshireHMRC7 yearsThese loan sharks keep calling me from 01617685097, 01618842065, and 01618843027 and it's pure harassment. I never even gave them my number, but when I asked them to remove it from their list, they just laughed and said I’d already given it to them. I phoned them back and warned if they don’t stop bothering me, I’ll report them to the police. What’s worse is they’re interfering with other important calls getting through to me! Every time I block one of their numbers starting with "0161", they just ring from another. It’s driving me mad.7 yearsI got a call from someone called Mark at My Financial Claims Ltd about some PPI compensation linked to Welcome Finance. He sounded pretty legit and even sent me paperwork to sign and asked for a payment. I was about to go ahead with it but thankfully I checked online first, it just seemed too good to be true. The numbers they rang from were 0161 768 5097 and 0161 768 1832. Glad I didn’t fall for it!MarkFinancial Claims LimitedWelcome Finance7 yearsGot a call from some bloke called Mark, saying I was owed £4300 for a PPI claim from Santander. It sounded proper official at first but they used a Manchester number while saying they’re based in Middlesex. They even sent over an invoice with all the fancy details to make it seem legit! Don’t fall for it though, it’s a total con trick. Reporting it to Action Fraud now!MarkSantanderManchesterMiddlesexAction Fraud7 yearsI got a call from someone at Careline saying I needed to pay £576 before they could help me get £7000 in PPI compensation. It sounded dodgy, so I reported it straight away to Action Fraud. Be careful and don’t fall for it!Claims CarelinePolice. uk7 yearsGot a call from a company called Claims Claimline, said I had more than £6000 in a PPI claim. They were really pushy and kept coming back at me. Asked for solicitor fees before doing anything. All their emails are now being reported to action fraud. Proper aggressive approach, not impressed at all.Claims ClaimlineAction Fraud7 yearsGot tricked out of £720 with some fake PPI claim! So annoyed 😤7 yearsI just contacted the action fraud line to report it, they pass the info on to the police. The more details they have, the better the odds of catching them. Definitely worth making that call.Action Fraud7 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were Claims Careline Ltd. Definitely a scam. They wanted me to cough up solicitor fees straight away for a PPI claim that doesn’t even exist. Watch out for this kind of trickery!Claims Careline Ltd7 yearsStay well clear of this one, it's a clever con. I've just been ripped off for £2,450 and there’s no way I’m seeing that cash again. What a bunch of tosspots!7 yearsI got a call saying I could get some PPI money back, but then they wanted me to pay upfront for solicitor fees and taxes. Total scam, don’t fall for it!7 yearsWatch out for Careline Ltd, they seem like a total scam. I’d avoid dealing with them at all costs. Don’t get caught up with this company!Claims Careline Ltd7 yearsI had a really hard time understanding the bloke on the phone, and on top of that he was quite rude and disrespectful.7 yearsGot loads of calls about ppi, kept ringing non stop. Pretty annoying really.PPISubmit Your Own Report (0161 768 5097)
