I received a call from a company named Red Star Financial Management Ltd, which seemed to be associated with PPI, credit cards, and vehicle finance loans.

This number has been persistently calling me every few days for the last couple of months. It seems to be a debt collection agency that keeps ringing until I finally pick up, but I’ve yet to answer their calls.

Keep them on the line for a spell and fritter away as much of their time as you can. Don’t share any genuine details or information; fabricate it as you chat. Eventually, reveal what you’ve been up to. If enough of us do this, maybe they’ll finally take the hint and throw in the towel.

I’ve been bombarded with calls from this number that always end up going to voicemail. What’s bizarre is that the voicemail isn’t even a proper message; all I get is a jumble of office noise in the background, like a really busy workplace. Out of curiosity, I decided to ring the number back. A chap answered, and when I enquired about the nature of the call, he immediately launched into a sales spiel. I told him firmly to refrain from calling me again, but he kept butting in, which led me to raise my voice and tell him to pipe down. Eventually, in a bit of a huff, he hung up on me!

I’ve been inundated with calls from these folks, and I can't quite fathom how they managed to acquire both my home and mobile numbers. I’m adamant about not sharing my mobile, yet somehow it’s ended up in their hands. They bombard me with calls throughout the day. Just today, I decided to return the favour and called back, thinking I might get some clarity. Initially, I was greeted by a woman who cheerfully informed me, "Good morning, you've reached Web Start; all our lines are currently occupied, but you’re in the queue". Shortly after, another lady chimed in, telling me they were extremely busy at the moment and requested that I leave my name and number for a callback. I decided to end the call at that point.

It's rather frustrating when they decide to give me a bell while I'm on my business trips overseas. There are times I'm miles away from Europe, and getting a call at such ungodly hours can be quite irksome. It really makes me wish I could reach out to them directly and request they cease their incessant ringing. I've attempted to ring back, but it seems my call gets cut off every time. If fate allows me to find myself in Manchester, I might just pay them a visit to express my dissatisfaction in person!

I received a rather uninviting cold call regarding PPI, during which they pressed me for my financial details and even revealed the name of my bank and credit card provider. To make matters worse, they mentioned my postcode, along with my house name and number! This has left me feeling quite anxious about the possibility of this sensitive information being exploited.

Called me twice in a mere five minutes, despite my clear request not to reach out to my number. I flagged this number as ‘spam’ ages ago, so I typically just brush it off. Unfortunately, I didn’t spot their call on this occasion and absolutely lost my temper! 1st July 2014, around 4:55 PM.

I receive calls from this number around six times daily! Thankfully, I've got an NQ call blocker installed on my phone, which means every time they try to reach me, their pesky calls are interrupted. It's baffling how they've managed to obtain my number, especially since I reside in Northern Ireland!

Three months back, I lodged a complaint on this platform, and shortly after that, I switched my phone number. Yet, just two days post-switch, those pestering calls resumed. My mother is gravely unwell in hospital at the moment, and the last thing I need is these idiots interrupting me constantly. It's incredibly frustrating how relentless they are!

Boastful, insistent and deceitful. Their sales tactics are rooted in tall tales, and they seem utterly indifferent to your reactions; it’s hard to fathom how this constitutes a respectable way to conduct business.

I've noticed quite a few missed calls from this number, but frustratingly, the caller has not left any voicemail. I'm thankful to those who've flagged their discourteous and intimidating manner, as it's helped me make the decision to block them. If you find yourself in a situation where they keep ringing and you can't seem to block them, try to stay composed. Politely request that they take your number off their list. Just keep in mind that your frustration won’t phase them, so don’t let it affect you. By the way, this website is brilliant! It’s truly reassuring to know I’m not missing any vital calls by shutting out these nuisances!

I’m being inundated with calls regarding PPI refunds - honestly, I get a trio of them each day! It’s become quite burdensome, to say the least. Today, I finally lost my patience and confronted one of their reps about the ridiculousness of their operation. I pointed out that hardly any claims are actually settled, and the bloke on the other end had the audacity to tell me to ‘bugger off.’ Charming, isn’t it?

As someone battling terminal renal cancer, I've already got my plate full just trying to find some peace and rest. The last thing I need is to be interrupted by some cold-calling agency. This particular caller had the audacity to start off by asking how I was doing today! Honestly, I’m not well at all, grappling with severe side effects from my medication. These intrusive calls only add to my stress, especially since I rely on temazepam to catch some shut-eye, only to be woken up by someone who couldn't care less about my situation. It’s incredibly frustrating!

The bloke on the other end introduced himself as Mario, but to be honest, I didn’t quite catch what he was on about.
When I inquired about the source of his call, he abruptly cut off the line.

Cheers to the internet; I won’t be falling for that again! :)

If you're feeling aggrieved, consider lodging a complaint with Ofcom. It’s a mere couple of minutes to fill out the form. Don’t forget to block their number too. You can find the form here: [Ofcom Complaints](http://consumers.ofcom.org.uk/tell-us/telecoms/privacy/) I suspect the firm in question is Red Star Financial Services, as they seem to peddle PPI and similar products. They've got a presence on Twitter and Facebook, should you want to let off some steam in their direction!

I've received calls not once but twice now, with the caller claiming there’s some sort of PPI linked to an old credit card of mine. What's baffled me is that they’ve reached me on a brand new number! I couldn't help but wonder how on earth they managed to get hold of it. When I probed them about it, their answer was, “We retrieve our information from our search firm.” Really? I’m not convinced! I told them I’d do a little internet digging myself and would get back to them if I found anything intriguing. I tried to look up “Red Star” along with the phone number they provided, but to my surprise, there was no relevant information available, just links to pages similar to this one. At this point, I've lost interest. A big thank you to everyone who's shared their experiences here!
