Lately, I've been getting loads of calls from people using a Manchester area code. Today, they claimed they had my details from the Council about some house repair issues. Total scam, don’t trust them!

I got a call from someone saying they worked for a Government programme that supports new businesses. He kept asking to talk to the business owner. Bit of a laugh really. Went straight to block that number!

I got a call from someone saying they were from ‘abbotts’ about some question I apparently asked about help with national debt? Pretty strange, as they even used my first name. After seeing these comments, I decided to block the number.

some bloke rang me, asking for my partner by his first name. When I told him I could leave a message, he just said he’d ring again later. He claimed he was calling from somewhere called Abbotts. I've blocked the number now.

For the past week, I’ve been getting calls from this number at least three times daily, usually between 8.30 in the morning and 7 at night. I never pick up calls from unknown numbers and they never bother to leave a voicemail. After seeing what others have said about it, I’m definately going to block it now!

After getting tired of the constant ringing, I finally answered the phone. The caller didn’t bother to say who they were and just asked if I was the owner of the business. They went on to ask if the coronavirus had impacted my business. I replied that pretty much every business has been affected and asked if they meant claiming on my business insurance. They said it might not always depend on the insurance type and then asked for more of my contact info to carry out some kind of eligibility check. I politely declined and ended the call.

They say they’re helping with business interruption claims to get you some cash back, but it just seems like a load of rubbish to me.

Got a call from some bloke called Peter about business interruption claims. He was dead keen and kept chatting, even when I tried to change the subject. Said they do "no win no fee" deals for insurance claims, but didn’t seem bothered if you weren’t sticking to his script. Bit annoying, really. Lol.
