I received a missed call from this number, and I have a hunch it might be iQor debt recovery services based in Preston.

I've been getting a call from these folks every day this week. Initially, they claimed to be from Preston, and then they changed their tune, saying they were associated with the DWP!

Has anyone got a clue about the identity behind the number 01772 512177?

Give this a whirl for a bit of amusement-dial 141 before their number, then switch your phone to private mode and enjoy the show while they fumble! It’s payback time-make sure you've got a spare moment to ring their landline numbers, naturally whenever you can do it for free. Just imagine how perplexing this must be for those on the other end! If more of us start giving them the cold shoulder by ringing back in silence, it might just drive those chancers to despair! Let's stand together and take back our power! CHEERS, ALPHAMAN!

Received a call from this number on our mobile at 12:26 today, Sunday, January 3rd, 2009. We didn't pick up since we had no idea who it might be.

I recently came across the Consumer Action Group, which hosts discussions about debt collection agencies. If anyone's familiar with this site and the insights it offers regarding the firm in question, you'll find that there are effective ways to handle these situations. They can often be discouraged quite successfully!

For the past week, I've been receiving a solitary call each day. The first one caught my attention because the caller claimed they were affiliated with the DWP, apparently from a place called Preston!

These absolute numpties have called us twice now, yet they've stubbornly refused to disclose who they are. We're braced for their next ring, and let me tell you, we’ll do everything in our power to uncover the company and all their information.
