6 yearsThis firm was proper pushy, kept insisting I was owed some compensation I never claimed. Felt like a total scam to me.6 yearsThis number rang me up claiming they had info about a crash I supposedly had back in January and wanted to talk about compensation stuff. I told them I’ve never been in any accident and asked how they got my private info, and if they knew about data protection laws. Then, out of nowhere, they started shouting that my info wasn’t private and they could do whatever they want with it. When I tried calling again, they got really abusive, saying awful things about my family. Honestly, watch out, it’s a total scam!7 yearsGot a call after a car accident, some bloke saying I'd been given compensation from the other driver's insurance. He kept going on about me having hidden injuries and insisted I accept the payout. Total scam, really fishy.7 yearsJust had a ring from this number, saying they were with some Road Accident Inquiry Department or something.. What a load of rubbish! Never heard of any department like that before. The person on the other end wouldn’t stop yapping or take a hint. Watch out, this number’s definitely a scam.Road Accident Investigation Agency7 yearsGot a call saying it was about a car insurance claim, but we’ve never made one. The bloke just kept going on and wouldn’t let me get a word in. When I asked for his name, he gave me a company from Manchester. I called them up and they said it definitely wasn’t their doing.Manchester13 yearsI called my dad and he gave me his bank info for some call blocking thing, then I told the police about it.13 yearsSome bloke rang up my gran and tried to trick her into giving all her bank info and card numbers. She believed him cause he seemed proper convincing on the phone. Luckily, as soon as she hung up, she rushed down to the bank and thankfully no money was stolen. People really need to watch out and warn those who might be more at risk. They can sound so nice on the phone, but these scammers only care about taking you for a ride!13 yearsunknown number.13 yearsI got a call from the same number, and it was some dodgy scheme about a power saver. The person claimed to be from the "Electricity Board" or something like that. They kept saying they'd deliver it to my place and that it would slash my electricity bill by 44% - which sounded totally ridiculous. When I asked about the price, they refused to give a straight answer, saying I’d only see when it arrived. Seriously, who falls for such an obvious con? It’s daft!Board13 yearsGot a call around 3:30pm today from someone claiming to be from the "Electric Company". They tried to convince me there’s a government scheme giving pensioners a 40% discount on their bills - complete nonsense, I reckon. Then they asked for my debit card details! Total con artists, no doubt. Honestly, stay well clear of this lot!Electric Company13 yearsI got a call from someone saying they were from telephone preferences and that they wanted to send me a little gadget to stop unwanted calls. Then out of nowhere, they started asking about my bill payment for my phone line. I asked why they needed that info, then they tried to get me to say the name on my bank card. I told them straight up it was a scam and I’m not daft enough to hand over my card details.Submit Your Own Report (0161 818 7088)
