7 yearsI usually ignore calls from numbers I don't recognise, especially since I’ve got an ansaphone set up. Funny thing is, they never bother leaving a message anyway.7 yearsGot a call saying I was due a cheque of over £3,000 for PPI, supposed to arrive in a few weeks. Seemed odd since I never claimed PPI before. Then they began quizzing me about my life insurance details. Ended up blocking the number straight away. Shady, if you ask me!7 yearsDefinately a scam! They weren’t very good at English either. I told them I couldn’t hear properly and asked them to spell the company’s name, but they couldn’t do it. They kept saying I had a PPI refund of more than £2000. I just said “brilliant, send it to me then.” They got really nervous after that coz I refused to give any personal info or confirmation.7 yearsGot a call from some bloke with a foreign accent claiming his name was Peter, said he was from some claims advisory and had info about my PPI claim that’s supposedly worth more than £2000. He said he already had my paperwork, but i asked him how on earth he got it without my okay and told him to send it all over to me right away. Then i just said cheers and ended the call. blocked that number straight away. Bet he'll ring from somewhere else, but i’ll just block that one too!Peter7 yearsThey started off saying they dealt with PPI claim help, but the moment I asked if they’d checked the TPS register, they just hung up on me.7 yearsI just ignored the call and didnt pick up.7 yearsGot a call at work from 0161 818 7408.
