I got a call, they said “Thanks for calling, we’re trying to connect you” - like three times. Then suddenly, they hung up. Strange!

Persistent calls that I certainly do not welcome. I wish they would cease contacting me.

Suggestion: Save these numbers and change their labels to PPI as soon as they ring you. That way, you’ll instantly know not to pick up the call.
10 years
Please, I beg you to stop bombarding me with calls! I really can’t take any more of it!
11 years
Well, one would sincerely hope that you haven't. Those companies do tend to slap on a charge, but it’s worth noting that banks and lenders are actually required to provide this information without any cost.

Stumbled upon this site while trying to uncover the identity of the individual who's been persistently calling us at all times throughout the day. Quite the mystery!
11 years
Here we go again with those pesky PPI callers! If they give you a bell, don’t hesitate to share your experiences here!

Tried to call us twice earlier today but we weren't able to answer.

Gave us a ring earlier today but didn’t get back to us.

Seems like yet another shady PPI firm to me. I wasn't familiar with the number, so I decided to leave it unanswered.
12 years
These folks hung up just as we were about to respond, probably counting on us to ring them back. Thankfully, we thought to look this up beforehand!

This number keeps ringing me incessantly! We’ve never once answered it!

Yet another dodgy PPI claims agency making the rounds.

These persistent callers just won't take the hint, will they? It's such a bother having to deal with them so often. Can't BT do something to put an end to these nuisances once and for all? It's a right pain in the neck!

This PPI claims company keeps ringing me non stop. I've had enough, it's just plain harassment.
14 years
This number keeps ringing me, but whenever I pick up there’s nobody on the other end and the call just drops after a few seconds.
14 years
I keep getting these annoying calls about PPI claims. Someone really needs to track these scammers and put an end to it.
14 years
They rang me at about 12.05 and when I tried calling back three times, nobody answered. It just went dead and then said the number was invalid or something. Quite strange!
14 years
Is there any method to block these calls from coming through?
14 years
This number keeps popping up on my phone but only rings a couple of times before just cutting out. Anyone else experienced this?
14 years
Got a missed call on my phone a few days ago, was thinking of ringing back but after seeing what folks say online, I'm really glad I didn’t. Is there any method at all to block these annoying calls?
14 years
It’s really starting to annoy me. Tried calling back to get them to stop, but it’s just a dead line. Can’t believe they leave it like that!
14 years
I keep getting these irritating PPI calls all the time, even though I've already registered with the TPS.

This number just rang me up. Anyone knows how I can report it?
14 years
I reckon the cops oughta be called in on this one.
14 years
I was behind the wheel and just ignored the call, lucky I didn't pick up. The number was unfamiliar and they didn't leave a voicemail either. Out of curiosity, I looked it up and stumbled across loads of folks getting annoyed by the same calls.
14 years
Totally a scam! They gave me a different solicitor company name each time I asked, and neither of them had any right to handle your PPI claim. Don’t give them any info or cash, they might empty your bank balance or charge you heaps on your credit card. It’s crazy they're still out there doing this!
14 years
I picked up the phone and before I could say anything, they just dropped the call. Tried ringing back, and it told me the number I was calling was wrong. Very odd!
14 years
I’m really getting annoyed with this caller who rings almost daily. Being disabled makes it hard to get to the phone quickly if I'm not right next to it, so by the time I reach it, the ringing has already stopped. When I do manage to answer before it cuts off, the line often just goes silent. Honestly, don’t these folks have something better to spend their time on? There should be laws against this kind of persistent nuisance.
14 years
On Monday 25th March at 10.47 am, I got a voicemail about maybe getting a refund for a payment protection policy, but I doubt it's legit. I haven’t replied to it.
14 years
Keeps ringing my mobile every few days but never leaves a message when I pick up. Such a pain!
14 years
They call me like every couple of days, sometimes they just cut off mid-call. Always trying to give me some sort of refund, asking to press 1 or 2 for different options. If I try calling back, no luck - dead line! How’s that even legal? I usually just end the call straight away. I’m thinking of getting a phone that automatically blocks these calls because it’s getting really annoying. Honestly, it feels like the phone companies or the government just don’t care about sorting out these constant nuisance calls!
14 years
Got a call but when I picked up, no one was there. Called the number back and it just went straight to dead silence. Feels like yet another annoying PPI scam!
14 years
Got a call from this number earlier and it was some automated voice claiming they were sorting out my refund (didn’t say from which company). They wanted me to press a button depending on if I’d got the refund or not. Didn’t stick around to find out what came next and just hung up. Pretty sure they’d ask for my bank info afterward. Best to just ignore it, looks dodgy.
14 years
I got a call but nobody spoke when I answered. I called back to check and it just went straight to dead tone. Seems like a classic scam to me.
14 years
Got a call from this number earlier today, but they dropped the call after just a few rings. Odd thing is, I only shared my number with a mobile network provider a couple of days ago to set up a new plan. Seems like their promise about keeping info private doesn’t mean much, huh? If you’ve ever been curious about how these firms end up with your details, well, here’s a clue.
14 years
Got a call from that same number once more. I’m really careful not to share my private number with anyone since it’s only meant for urgent calls from my family. So how on earth did they manage to get it?
14 years
Just like loads of others, I didn’t pick up but called back and it turned out to be a disconnected number.
14 years
I picked up but there wasn't anyone on the line, then the call just dropped out.
14 years
This number keeps calling me, usually twice, but there's nobody on the line when I answer. It’s really annoying!
14 years
My phone only rang twice before the person hung up.

Had just finished a night shift and this call wakes me up, really didn’t need this rubbish right now.
14 years
I’m honestly baffled how they keep getting hold of my number! I never share it anywhere and it’s not even visible on my Facebook. Honestly, who’s handing them around like sweets? O2, any clue what’s going on here?!

This number calls me about every couple of weeks, and even though I never pick up, it keeps ringing regularly for quite some time now.
14 years
My phone rang a bit ago and I chose not to pick up, then I added the number straight to my block list. From what I've read in other comments, sounds like it's one of those PPI firms.
14 years
Got a call I didn’t answer on my phone, and honestly, I’m relieved because it turns out to be one of those annoying spam calls. The time was 09.54 on 20/03/13.

Woke up to a buzzing phone - missed a call real early this morning.

Don't bother answering, they're just wasting your time.

This number's been ringing me a bunch of times lately, all missed calls.

I got a missed call from this number too. Honestly, I don’t pick up calls from unfamiliar numbers anymore. If you want a response, just drop a text!

I got a call from this number on my phone, but when I picked up, no one was speaking. Seems like they hung up. When I called them back, it just went straight to a beep.

Got a ring around 16:45 today while I was in the supermarket car park, juggling my shopping bag trying to reach my phone - but before I could pick it up, the call stopped. Tried calling back, but no luck connecting! Makes me question if this is even their genuine number. Whatever the case, it’s a right annoying bother.

yesterday afternoon i got a call from this number but it just went to my voicemail since ive blocked everyone except my contacts. when i checked the message, they said something like “press 5 now to get your refund processed,” but they never said who they were. obviously i didn’t press anything. seems dodgy to me!
