No sound at all, then they just cut the call straight away.

Someone called saying they were from CCU and asked why I hadn’t sent back the forms about claiming PPI. I told them I never got any paperwork and I’ve already claimed my PPI so I wasn’t interested. They just ended the call on me. Bit funny really.

Got a call on my phone from some dodgy outfit called 'Claims UK', sounded like one of them boiler-room scams. Some bloke was really pushy about PPI or whatever. I tried to be nice and say he was wasting his time, but he just wouldn’t shut up, so I ended the call. Reckon he might’ve started getting rude if I’d stayed on. Told him to remove my number, but I’m not holding my breath - bet I’ll get calls from other muppets still.

Another one starting with 0161, I've already blocked quite a few and I'll keep doing so. So far, all of them have been about PPI or something along those lines.

This number keeps ringing me every single day for ages now. Whenever I pick up, no one talks, then they just hang up. I usually let it go to voicemail but it’s seriously irritating!

Just let it ring through to voicemail and it says 'no agents are free to answer right now'. You were the one calling me!! Sounds like someone’s not very good at handling their outbound dialler :-)

Got a call from some pushy PPI company, and the woman on the line sounded proper mad. Had a bit of a laugh messing with them for a few mins.

Some woman rang me about PPI and when I asked where she got my details from, she mentioned a company called Media Octopus. I told her I’d never heard of them and hadn’t agreed to share my info with anyone else. She kept going on about how important PPI was, but I just told her to delete all my info because I’m not interested in those services.

A lovely woman gave me a call and explained everything about PPI. The conversation was really helpful and gave me all the info i needed. She said its on a no win no fee basis with 30%.

This number won’t stop ringing, all about that PPI scam. I block one, then another close one pops up from them. So frustrating! #fedup

So this woman rings me, right? And for once I thought, "I'll humour her and actually hear what she has to say about this PPI thing I might be owed." But then she snaps back all rude and unprofessional, like, "Look, don't act like you're doing me a favour. So, which bank do you use?" Yeah, nice try - didn't hang about after that.

This woman rang me and for a change I thought, "Alright, I’ve never really paid attention when folks call about PPI, so maybe I should hear what’s what." She snapped back in a rude, really unprofessional tone, "Look, don’t act like you’re doing me any favours. Now, which bank do you use?" Fair enough - I wasn’t gonna waste any more time with her.

Just blocked them.

Got a random cold call, looks like some muppets sold my number about. Not off to a great start. CCUK or whatever, is that even legit? The bloke was proper rude, acting like I was daft for not using his firm to get PPI back. Plus, they wanted 36% cut of anything I got back. Ended it quick and blocked the number.

I've been receiving calls from this number on a daily basis. Whenever I pick up, there's utter silence on the line before they abruptly end the call. It’s rather perplexing, isn't it? I can't quite wrap my head around the reasoning behind it.

I keep receiving calls from this number with alarming regularity, but I've got no clue who it belongs to. Quite puzzling, really!

I received a call from this number earlier today. When I picked up, there was a bit of noise on the line, but no one actually spoke. I've now taken the liberty of blocking it. Honestly, I'm quite tired of these nuisance calls. I need to keep my phone on while I'm at work, and it really irks me how often these calls come through. Sure, I could just ignore them, but there's always that nagging thought that one of these calls might actually hold some importance. If the relevant authorities are aware that these numbers are linked to scammers, then why on earth aren't they doing more to track them down, hold them accountable, and put these despicable individuals behind bars?

This guy said he was from CCUK and asked why I hadn’t sorted my PPI claim yet - I never had PPI tho. He even knew my home address and wanted me to verify it. They’ve rung me twice now, then just hung up and I’ve blocked the number.

Received a rather intrusive call from a firm dealing with PPI claims today. Seemed like a typical cold call, totally unsolicited. It's becoming a bit of a nuisance, if I'm honest!
