Phone number ☎️ 01618438540 👆 is reported as a persistent scam operation targeting landlines and businesses, often using Indian or strong Asian accents. Scammers commonly claim to represent housing associations or offer compensation for historic claims like PPI or mortgage refunds, frequently mentioning home repairs or damp damage. They call repeatedly, sometimes early in the morning, and hang up abruptly if questioned or ignored. Callers sometimes know personal details, but requests for sensitive info like DOB or bank details lead to disconnection.

The consensus is these calls are intrusive, unwanted, and designed to extract personal information through deception.

Stay clear!2 yearsI got a call where they announced themselves but then just hung up before I could even pick up.2 yearsI've got calls from the same people, both guys and girls with a really thick Asian accent, about damp damage at my workplace. This must be the tenth time in two weeks! Our office building doesn't have any issues like that, and I've kindly told them several times to stop calling, but they just keep ringing back. It's getting really annoying now.2 yearsDefinitely a scam. Got a call around 8:40am and could hear traffic noise in the background.2 yearsGot a call today from someone claiming I was owed over £2000 as part of some payment protection deal linked to a mortgage I apparently got 30 years back. They already had my name, old address, and postcode, and the person spoke with an Indian accent. When they asked for my birthday, I just hung up straightaway.2 yearsGot a call from a man with a foreign accent asking if anything was damaged at my place. Seemed dodgy so I just hung up right away. Number was 01618438540. Definitely a scam attempt.2 yearsGot a call first thing Saturday but the person just dropped the line straight away.

Bit odd, really.India2 yearsGot a call earlier from someone claiming to have great news about my old PPI claim, saying I was owed nearly £3,000. But when I asked for specifics about the loan or mortgage it was connected to, they had nothing to show. Definitely felt like a scam to me!2 yearsGot a call on my home phone earlier from a bloke with an Indian accent, talking about repairs for a housing association. I asked how he found my number since it's ex-directory and who exactly he was trying to reach. He just kept insisting he was from housing association repairs and wanted to know what needed fixing. I told him straight up that I don’t answer scam calls and if I ever need anything fixed I’ll contact the right people myself. Then I told him not to ring again and hung up.2 yearsI didn’t bother trying to fake not understanding her, though her accent was really hard to get.2 yearsHe just acted like he didn’t get what she was saying, and after a bit she gave up and ended the call.2 yearsThey claimed to be from the housing repairs office but wouldn’t say where they got my number from when I asked. Seemed dodgy to me so I just said no thanks.2 yearsGot a call on my home phone earlier, and I instantly got a weird vibe from the bloke's Indian accent.

Told them straight up, nah, not interested.2 yearsGot a call a short while ago from an Indian call centre, loads of background noise and the bloke was hard to make out. He claimed to be from Kerry Claims in Buckinghamshire, saying I could claim nearly £3000 back from a mortgage I supposedly paid off decades ago. Then he asked for my bank details to sort the refund, which I wasn’t about to give him. As soon as I refused, he just ended the call. Pretty clear to me it was a total scam.Kerry ClaimsBuckinghamshire2 yearsI picked up the call and they just stayed silent.2 yearsACG cars is basically short for Absolute C*nts Group in my opinion. Their address is Unit A, Mills Hill Trading Estate on Mills Hill Rd, Middleton, Manchester M24 2FD. The number to call is 07701 334786. From what I’ve heard, it’s just a front for money laundering run by Reno Degisi, who has dodgy teeth, and Stewart Hall who looks like he’s on steroids or something. If you Google Zach Hall and Daniel Degisi, you’ll find loads of shady stuff linked to them. Avoid these lot at all costs!ACGAll Complete Nuisances GroupMillsHillTrading EstateMills Hill RoadMiddletonManchesterReno DegisiStewart HallZach HallDaniel Degisi2 yearsGot another call from some call centre in India pretending to be from housing or something.

I straight up told him he was scamming me, and then he just hung up.India2 yearsI got a really odd call from this person who barely spoke any English, seemed quite dodgy if you ask me.2 yearsI was tied up on a call for work, so I missed the ring. No message left behind either. Guess it wasn’t anything pressing, eh?2 yearsGot a call from some guy claiming to check on damp issues in your home, but then he started asking for personal details.
