6 yearsThis number 0161 768 2055 keeps ringing me, saying it’s about PPI compensation. But they want £150 paid straight away before they release anything, and my case says over £2840 is owed. On top of that, they ask to remote into your computer using their software to “send” the money. Seems a bit dodgy to me, like some kind of money laundering. They mentioned the company name Black Finance Financial.Black Finance Financial8 yearsThey ring me like 7 times daily, I just ignore and let it go to voicemail.8 yearsThese PPI people keep ringing me about 10 times every day! Just stop already!!!!8 yearsGot a call from a guy called "Trevor" claiming to be from a PPI firm. He was quite polite and double-checked if my postcode matched what he had, I told him no and gave my updated one but he just couldn’t get it. Ended up saying goodbye to Trevor. I’ve blocked the number now.Trevor8 yearsPPI has been ringing me loads each day. Got so fed up I answered with a referee’s whistle! Bet they weren’t expecting that.PPI8 yearsAnnoying caller - rings my phone a couple times a day, and when I did pick up once, no one was there. I get loads of these sorts of calls from Manchester area codes. Just block them now.Manchester8 yearsGot four calls from this number today, no voicemail or anything. Kinda makes me a bit uneasy.8 yearsThey ring me around 2 to 4 times every weekday but never actually have anything to tell me.8 yearsThis number rang me about 7 times all within like 20 minutes. Super annoying. They didn’t bother leaving any voicemail or text either.8 yearsI've truly lost track of the amount of times this number has been calling me. It's becoming quite tiresome, to say the least. Honestly, there's really no reason for them to keep pestering me. I only wish they'd take the hint and cease their endless ringing, as I have absolutely no interest in whatever they're trying to pitch.8 yearsKeeps ringing several times daily, those annoying PPI salespeople.8 yearsThey ring me loads of times every day. I don't pick up and they never bother to leave a voicemail. I get plenty of calls saying they're from "Manchester" but I reckon it's the same idiots just using different numbers. Best to just block 'em.Manchester8 yearsThese PPI lot have been ringing me like mad, was 17 calls in just two days. Told them a few times to take me off their blasted list. On the last call, I just lost it and told the guy to shove it, he ended up hanging up on me.PPI8 years01617685205 has rang me on all three of my phones around six times. When I finally picked up, there was nobody there on the line.8 yearsJust like others said, these idiots keep ringing from some super loud call centre, probably in India. They kept saying I was supposed to get a big payout or something. They've been blowing up my work phone about ten times in the past day.India8 yearsGot a call from a bloke with a really thick accent, sounded like he was calling from some busy place, maybe Grand Central. He was talking about PPI. When I asked him to clarify what that actually meant and why he figured I’d be entitled to it, he kinda fumbled and wasn’t sticking to the usual spiel.Grand Central Station8 yearsRang at 5:30, they wouldnt talk and just ended the call.8 yearsBeen getting calls like mad since yesterday, about 15 times now. Ive put the number on auto reject but it keeps coming through. Is there anyone i can reach out to so this nonsense can finally stop? It's seriously annoying.8 yearsI dont pick up when they ring, but ive been getting loads of calls from the same manchester area code for weeks. Ive even put the number on an auto block list. Feels like its probably the same firm just swapping out the numbers. Honestly, I cant understand why this kinda stuff isnt against the law, considering how often it happens.Manchester8 yearsi had no clue what she was saying cause her english was terrible. ive blocked the number now.8 yearsThis number kept ringing me all day long, so I just went ahead and blocked it!8 yearsthis number rang me twice already today, also 3 times yesterday and a couple times on sunday. ive blocked it now.8 yearsGot three calls from these PPI people today! A really pushy bloke who wouldn’t remove me from their list, saying because I didn’t want to hear about PPI, I wasn’t “informed” enough to decide. When I explained I never had loans or a mortgage, he said he’d report my number to the banks for fraud - apparently, if what I’m saying is true, they shouldn’t be passing on my details due to data protection rules. Then he threatened legal action if I was lying! Proper awkward chat, but if you ring back, they let you press 1 to stop any more calls.PPISubmit Your Own Report (0161 768 5205)
