10 yearsHonestly, these folks are pushing our patience to the limit! I let them know just a little while ago that I’ve just had a baby and I’m currently in hospital. I also mentioned we’d settle the £9.60 debt as soon as we’re able. Yet here they are, ringing us every single day! Seriously, it’s just £9.60-can't they find something better to do with their time?10 yearsTom, it’s been over a month since those folks last called us. We finally received another call yesterday, but the moment we declined to share our address again, they mentioned they'd be sending a letter outlining their connection to us and Blockbuster. That was a while back, and still, nothing has arrived. I suppose Missy T was onto something when she suggested the system hasn’t been refreshed. At this rate, we might just reach out to Blockbuster ourselves. It feels like they’re doing very little to keep their records in check and are just keen on bugging everyone instead.TomMissy T10 yearsI received a rather persistent call concerning a Blockbuster account, if you can believe it! A woman was on the line asking for our address and mentioned she would provide a number for us to get in touch. I explained that we were en route to work and didn’t have a pen or paper at hand. She assured us they’d get back to us on Monday. It's quite astonishing how relentless they've been; they've been ringing us nearly every day for the past month!10 yearsGreetings everyone! We're pretty convinced it's blockbuster on the other end. We have an outstanding bill of seven pounds and are just on the verge of settling that. But honestly, the incessant calls every thirty seconds? That's a bit over the top, isn't it?10 yearsThis number belongs to a rather unscrupulous agency focused solely on financial gain. We've been left with a substantial sum that remains unpaid.10 yearsReceived an automated message with a call in the afternoon. It mentioned our name and gave us a reference number. However, it didn't identify any specific person or company behind the call, just a number. It struck me as rather suspicious.10 yearsWe decided to give them a ring back, and during the conversation, they asked for our number which we willingly shared with them. Surprisingly, they never bothered to ask for our name. Instead, they launched into a discussion about an alleged outstanding balance. It felt rather dodgy, considering they bypassed all the necessary security checks and, in my opinion, flouted the data protection regulations.10 yearsThat number originates from Preston (01772).Preston10 yearsSo, we decided to give them a bell and surprisingly got through. The individuals on the other end claimed they worked for a variety of companies, suggesting that their call meant I must have some sort of engagement with multiple firms. However, they were quite reluctant to disclose who exactly was trying to reach us - the moment we declined to share our mobile number. They mentioned they’d call back and instructed us to inquire about the caller’s identity. Quite peculiar, really. Alan did point out that we had an outstanding balance of £5.85 with Blockbuster, but we settled that two days ago. It’s a bit of a mystery!AlanBlockbuster10 yearsI’ve just received a call from this number. We've got caller ID, so we decided to give it a miss. The message was exactly the same as what many of you have reported. It appears to be from Blockbuster, as we did have an overdue payment, but we settled that over two days ago. So, I am rather puzzled as to why they’re ringing now!Blockbuster11 yearsHey Lewis, just a quick one for you - did you actually get a call back from them when they said you would?Lewis11 yearsI've received a couple of calls lately-one was a robotic message that stated our name and some sort of code, while the other call was a young lady searching for that same code. When I inquired about who they were, there was absolutely no response; they seem entirely focused on extracting our information. Ultimately, I discovered that we have an overdue bill for Blockbuster-would you believe it, around seven quid! What a right faff this all is!11 yearsReceived a call at 17:07 on the 29th of January, 2008. We answered, but oddly, there was no response from the other end, yet the line remained open. When we tried to call back later at 21:00, we were met with a voicemail system featuring an American automated message, and there was absolutely no option to leave our own message. Quite baffling, really!11 yearsThey've been ringing us every day for the past couple of days, requesting that our partner gets in touch with them. Turns out it’s from Blockbuster, and the penalty isn’t more than a fiver. Honestly, it's rather unnecessary!11 yearsI received a call from this number and was hoping to return the call by mentioning the reference number they left. However, when I did ring back, it turned out to be completely silent on the other end. Quite odd, if you ask me.12 yearsWe've been getting calls from this number at our house, but they keep mentioning someone else's name along with a reference number for us to call back. We haven't bothered to return the call, and honestly, it's been quite relentless. This has been happening for the last couple of days now.12 yearsI received something rather similar-a recorded message announcing my name along with a reference number. It definitely raises some red flags for me.12 yearsWe just received a call from this number, yet again, leaving behind a message with a code and our name. Strangely enough, we don't owe anything to Blockbuster at all!12 yearsI’ve had a rather similar experience recently. About a fortnight back, I popped in to settle my overdue Blockbuster fee, and it seems the daft individual who processed my payment neglected to update their records. Consequently, this company keeps ringing me up. It’s utterly laughable - all over a measly £5.85! Honestly, it’s infuriating! Ugh!12 yearsBlimey, we had a right odd experience last Wednesday (30.01.08). A couple of chaps called us and seemed to know our mobile number and even our full name! They claimed to be from Blockbuster and then asked for our address. The moment we questioned why they needed that info-seeing as we’re not in the habit of sharing personal details over the phone-they said it was necessary to share more about the call. Naturally, we weren't having any of that, so we turned them down, at which point they hung up. Just had another call from them, but this time they were as silent as the grave. Is anyone else having any luck getting through to them?BlimeyBlockbuster12 yearsHonestly, it’s becoming a right faff. We’ve had countless calls from this number already, and it’s starting to drive us up the wall. We tried calling back once, but there was just silence on the other end. Quite frustrating, to say the least!13 yearsI've been receiving calls from this number for the past four days. Each time, they leave a voicemail mentioning a name that doesn't belong to me and urging a call back. Oddly enough, I even got a call from Blockbuster referring to the same name and claiming I owe a fee. So, does anyone know who this might be?Blockbuster13 yearsAbsolutely a must-see, they're after us for a fiver!Submit Your Own Report (01772 557631)
