Reports on phone number 01617777070
7 yearsToday I got a call saying I’d get a cheque in about a week or so because my PPI was supposedly sorted. I do have life insurance and pay more than £25 a month, so it seemed a bit dodgy. As soon as I heard that, I just hung up ‘cause it felt like a scam right away.7 yearsI usually just ignore this number. If they really want to talk, they could leave a voicemail, but they never bother. I've blocked it, yet I still get alerts that they’re ringing me. Maybe one day I’ll pick up and drag out the conversation, asking them loads of personal stuff to see what their reaction is like.7 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be with Gladstone Brooke. They already had my full name, address and postcode, though I never gave them any info myself. They told me they had a cheque with my name on it for about £2000 related to PPI. When I asked which firm I supposedly claimed with, they said MNBA. Then they started asking if I had any life insurance. After I said I didn’t, suddenly the amount they mentioned jumped to £5050! They said I should expect the cheque in a couple of weeks once they’ve processed my details, but honestly, I’m not getting my hopes up.Gladstone BrookeMNBA7 yearsI’m seriously thinking about ditching my phone altogether. Back in the 70s, I managed just fine without having one. Honestly, it feels like maybe life was simpler then. -sigh-7 yearsGot a call from this number and when I rang it back, it turned out to be Currys in Manchester. The lady I spoke to was really nice and mentioned that someone’s been using their number without permission. She advised me to block it.CurrysManchester7 yearsI've been receiving calls from this number repeatedly, yet whenever I answer, there's nobody on the other end. Quite perplexing, wouldn't you say?7 yearsThis number keeps ringing me like 2 or 3 times every day, and even though I've blocked it, they still find a way to get through! Honestly, it's really starting to annoy me so much.7 yearsThey ring a few times daily, so I just end the call right away.

Quite frustrating, to say the least.7 yearsAvoid picking up, it’s a total scam.7 yearsThey keep ringing me every single day, but then just drop the call. Honestly, this needs to be looked into and something should be done legally about it.7 yearsI picked up the phone, but there was no one speaking on the other end. I ended the call and decided to block the number. Seriously, how do these folks even find our mobile numbers? It's so annoying!7 yearsThis caller kept ringing about something to do with PPI, but I honestly couldn’t make out half of what they were saying. They’ve phoned a few times now despite me being on the phone preference service. I’ve tried blocking the number, but they just ring from a different one each time. I’m planning to report the calls, but I’m not sure it will stop them - they’ll probably just use yet another number in no time.7 yearsI just hung up without saying a word and blocked the number straight away.7 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be with Gladstone Brookes, sounded like they had a South Asian accent though the number showed up as being from Manchester. Definitely feels like a scam to me!Gladstone BrookesManchester7 yearsI've had this number ring me a bunch of times in the past few days, like three times just today alone. Every time, there's someone on the other end with an Asian accent who says they’ve got a really English name. The last caller said his name was Peter, so I told him "if you’re Peter, then I must be Abdullah" and hung up straight away.PeterAbdullah7 yearsthe call came from a landline but they hung up just before it reached my voicemail. we dont recognise the number at all.7 yearsWould like to find out who's been ringing me nonstop.7 yearsAttention all con artists, tread carefully!7 yearsAttention, all potential fraudsters!! Beware!!!7 yearsI received a call from PPI inquiring about my personal information, followed by a push regarding life insurance.7 yearsAt about 3:56 this afternoon I tried calling, the line was open but no answer at all.

They rang me up claiming there’s a cheque waiting for me due to PPI, but insisted I must first purchase life insurance before they’d dispatch it. I ended the call right away.7 yearsI keep getting calls from someone speaking with a South Asian accent, which feels pretty dodgy.

How on earth did they get my number? Seriously, shouldn’t someone be tracking these lot down and putting a stop to them?7 yearsSo, I answered the phone saying my business name, and a woman with an accent that seemed Indian kept saying "hello, hello." When I said my company's name once more, she just disconnected the call. I could hear a few voices in the background, like a busy call centre or something. It really annoys me when people just drop the call without a word - how disrespectful! Clearly, I wasn't the right person for whatever PPI nonsense she was planning to pitch.7 yearsIt was a call centre bothering me, so I’ve just blocked the number.7 yearsthis woman with an asian accent kept going on about my ppi claim. i told her to cut it out coz it’s getting really frustrating.7 yearsThey’ve rang me about four times today! I put the number on block after the second call, but even with that, my phone doesn’t ring when they try again, yet it still shows they called twice more. Pretty sure it’s not anyone I know since they haven’t left me any voicemail!7 yearsScammer alert! Some bloke with a thick accent called saying my PPI claim was sorted, but before I could get the cheque, I had to sort out life insurance. Told him I already pay £22 for mine. Then he said I'd have to pay £25 more and would connect me to an advisor. Total rubbish, just trying to con me.7 yearsdidn't pick up, didn't get any voicemail either,Submit Your Own Report (0161 777 7070)
