My mobile and landline keep getting calls from these lot, but they never say anything when I pick up. Proper irritating!

I picked up and there was no one on the line, then they started saying there was an issue with my account and that I owe money to British Gas from half a year back. Trouble is, I haven’t been with British Gas for more than 9 years now!

I keep getting calls every day and letters saying I owe money, but they never mention who to. There’s also been automated texts and messages nonstop. Really glad I checked out this website first before taking any action.

I can totally relate to what others have said here. These calls keep coming to both my work and home. Recently, I got a letter from some place called "Akinika Depth Recovery" claiming I owe Thames Water money. I showed the letter to my lawyer. Does anyone know if there's a way to stop these people? It's really getting annoying!

For the past few weeks, this number's been ringing our home phone pretty much every day. When I picked up, some bloke said there was an issue with my TalkTalk service and that he needed to access my computer remotely to fix it. I told him to get lost straight away. Honestly, I'd tell anyone else to do the same unless they fancy having all their personal info nicked.

Got a call today on my landline from this number, it was some automated message about an issue with an account of mine. Then right after, my mobile buzzed with the same number and exact message. Lucky I checked online first - definitely not gonna call back.

For ages now, I've been getting texts from this number and it's starting to really annoy me. So I looked it up and it definitely seems dodgy, like some scam or something. I'm not going to ring them back, and honestly, I don't think it's wise to pick up or trust any of their automated messages either.

For the past month, I've been getting calls from this number on my home phone around three times every week, and they even leave voicemail messages. Does anyone know a way to stop these calls? It’s quite confusing since we just switched to this number recently, so I'm not sure how they managed to get it in the first place.

I've told them several times that the person they're calling for doesn't live at this address, but they just keep on phoning anyway.

They keep ringing me both at my job and at home, which is really annoying. I'm planning to notify the police and trading standards about this harassment.

For about a month now, I’ve been getting calls from these people more than five times daily. Every single time I answer, it’s just some robotic message. It’s really starting to get on my nerves.

Ugh, these idiots won't stop phoning me. Now they're even ringing at 9 in the evening. Seriously, WTF?

I keep getting calls from someone claiming to be akinika, doing stuff for first choice debt recovery. They start off ringing my landline, but once I stop answering there, they move on to my mobile and it’s like 6 or more calls every single day. Proper annoying!

I’ve been getting voicemail left by these muppets but it’s meant for someone else, about two times daily. They keep saying it’s important, but honestly it’s not for me. I live alone and have no clue who the person they’re after is. I’ve been at this address and using this number for 14 years! It honestly leaves me scratching my head.

Bloody idiots. Just ended the call straight away.

Alumina keeps ringing me and sending texts about some debt I supposedly owe. I've told them numerous times that I don’t have any debts, but they won't say much unless I give them more details. It’s really getting on my nerves now.

My 12 year old daughter keeps getting messages and calls from this number, even though we only ever gave her number to close relatives. They leave voice mails and texts all the time. It's really upsetting. Does anyone know if there’s a way to stop them without me having to pick up or reply?

From what I can gather, the number seems to originate from Preston, and it’s likely associated with a debt collection agency.

Got a call from some debt collectors saying I owe NHS money. They refused to tell me anything unless I gave them my full name, date of birth and address. I wasn’t comfortable with that so I just ended up hanging up.

I keep getting calls from this number, and as soon as I answer, they hang up. It's quite infuriating!
