8 yearsGot a call about replacing my boiler and they connected me to a local installer who handled it all. Really nice people. Cheers!8 yearsThis number called me, and it turned out to be about a free boiler scheme. They seem genuine and really are helping folks out, everything checked out as proper and legit.8 yearsSo I got a call about boiler grants, they gave me the number 01618188686.

Definitely not a scam!8 yearsGot a call about some PPI thing, sounded like a total scam, so I just blocked the number straight away.PPI8 yearsReceived a call from a bloke speaking with a thick Indian accent claiming to be from the "UK finance office," saying I was eligible for a life insurance refund through the FCA. He mentioned an address in Stevenson Square, Manchester, postcode M1 1DN, which does exist, but it all smelt fishy to me. Normally, these scammers use mobile numbers, so hearing a Manchester landline was a bit unusual. Definitely a scam, stay away from them!FCAStevenson SquareManchester8 yearsI tried calling back but they just ended the call.8 yearsThis number calls me like 3 or 4 times daily, and whenever I pick up, they mostly just hang up. But sometimes they do say something, and when that happens, I give 'em a mouthful. At this point, I reckon they might actually get a kick outta it.8 yearsBeen getting about half a dozen calls from that same place. I've just ignored them and blocked the numbers right away. Wasn’t this kind of stuff meant to be ended by now?8 yearsSomebody called me a white p### and asked if I liked black c##k - it was a proper verbal assault.8 yearsGot a call just a moment ago but no message was left. Immediately blocked. Appreciated coming across the feedback here!8 yearsGot one of those PPI calls from a financial company, so just blocked the number right away.8 yearsAnother PPI scam call, really annoying! Can you just quit ringing me already?8 yearsGot a random call from some bloke just trying to nick your cash. Hope he gets sacked quick, annoying how they ring up out of nowhere. That company must be dodgy as hell.8 yearsJust a few mins ago I got a call from this number, some bloke with a thick accent and loads of noise in the background. He claimed I had some PPI claim worth £1800 from a loan between 2006 and 2009 or something. Sounded like total rubbish to me. I told him he’s got the wrong person and then he just cut me off. Proper scam if you ask me.8 yearsThis person rings me about 4 times every day, then just hangs up. Sounds like a foreign guy with terrible English, keeps saying his name’s Jimmy or Dave or something.JimmyDave8 yearsSomebody rang me saying they were from British Finance, but when I questioned them, they called me a selfish idiot. Really rude behaviour! I’ve just blocked the number.British Finance8 yearsGot a call from an unknown number but they didn't bother to leave a message.8 yearsI get calls from this number loads every day but never pick up since it feels dodgy. Looked it up here and seems like a PPI scam, so I’ve just blocked them now.8 yearsOn 7th Nov 18, I kept saying hello a few times but could barely hear anything. Eventually, the guy replies with a rude "f### you". Tried calling back but they just ignore the calls.8 yearsI just received a call from someone claiming I could claim PPI, even though I’m pretty sure I’m not eligible. They started asking me if I had a boyfriend and other personal stuff. When I asked what the reason was, they just ended the call. Be careful with these people!8 yearsGot a call saying my PPI refund is ready to be paid out, which is weird cause I never applied for anything. They asked if I could give my bank info to send the money through. Felt pretty daft after that, and just told them to jog on, Ahmed or whoever they were!Ahmed8 yearsThey keep calling but never drop a message. First thing they ask is your name, without even telling you who they are. It's quite annoying.8 yearsGot a missed call and looked up the number on a different site. Turned out to be a boiler replacement firm, so I just blocked it.Submit Your Own Report (0161 818 8686)
