10 months01782971404 popped up again and it’s those dodgy scammers once more. I told the idiot on my landline to F.O. and then they had the nerve to ring my mobile. I was fuming! Instead of just blocking them this time, I’m thinking of blasting some really loud noise that’ll probably give me a headache but might put them off for good. From now on, every scam call is getting the loud noise treatment!F. O.10 monthsGot a call from 01782971404 on my landline, total scam. I didn’t hold back telling the person off, telling them where to shove it a few times. Fingers crossed they’ve understood and won’t bother ringing me up ever again.1 yearGot loads of calls and texts from them, all trying to trick me into handing over my bank info. Their spelling and grammar were terrible, and quite a few times what they said just didn't add up. What a rubbish scam attempt.1 yearIt wasn’t a call but they went all out trying to freak someone out through the mail. Got a letter supposedly from ‘BT’ claiming some unpaid bill had been handed over to a debt collector. Then, on that very same day, another letter pops up from this so-called ‘debt collection company’. The number they gave on that second letter is the one I’m checking out here.BT2 yearsI got this text out of the blue and thought it was a bit odd. After having a quick look on who-called.co.uk, it became clear it’s actually a phishing scam. The message said something about sorting a personal business thing; it mentioned Advantis and gave a website advantiscredit.co.uk plus a number 01782 97 14 04 with a ref number 26453968. Definitely dodgy, so beware!Advantisuk2 yearsI received a text on an old handset from this Advantis number claiming to be from the Official Receiver, asking to ring about an account and giving a reference code. I gave them a call, quite confused because we don’t have any account with them. When I told them our last name, they mentioned it didn’t match the number they’d messaged, so they said they’d take it off their records. Seems like it was just a genuine mistake, fingers crossed it’s all fixed now.2 yearsCheeky scammers trying their luck again!2 yearsThis number turned up on a letter I got, no name just my address, claiming it was from SSE about some bills I supposedly haven’t paid. Thing is, I don’t even have an account with SSE.3 yearsHe just asked for some name out of the blue. To be honest, he was quite polite. Still, something about it felt like a potential scam call.3 yearsGot a call on my mobile from someone saying they were ringing for British Gas, called themselves Advantis or summat like that. I told them they sounded dodgy and when they asked for my details to verify my identity, I just ended the call straight away.British GasAdvantis4 years01782971404 is a total scam!! They tried to get my personal info, saying it was something private.4 yearsThere’s a few comments below this one explaining what steps to take if you’re serious about putting an end to these scams. If everyone who receives these annoying calls and texts actually did what they suggested, we’d see a real drop in them. I’m pretty sure the amount of scam calls and texts would be massively reduced, probably well before the next election comes around. But it won’t happen unless every single scam is reported by everyone who gets one. Also, MPs need to hear from multiple voters on this issue before anyone in parliament will really pay attention to it.4 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be with Avantis in Stoke-on-Trent, but they didn’t say who they really were. Quite suspicious.AvantisStoke - on - Trent4 yearsTotal scam, don't waste your time with it.5 yearsGot a call from this avantis lot, they left their number and wanted me to ring them back. Smells fishy to me, so I just ignored it and blocked the number straight away. No way I’m calling first.Avantis5 yearsGot a call at 10:25 on the 21st of June, 2021. It was just some automated voice message.5 yearsThe company I work for has a sister firm that shut down in July 2020, but their phone number still redirects calls to us. So, a lady rang up wanting to talk about accounts. When I tried ringing her back, the voicemail said 'Avantis'.5 yearsGot a call from 01782971404, and they were asking for the accounts department, but then they couldn’t say exactly who they needed. It felt a bit odd, to be honest. They kept being quite pushy and wanted me to hand over info. I wasn’t having any of it and shot some questions back at them, but they just wouldn’t explain the reason for their call.5 yearsI got a voicemail from Advantis, but before I called them back, I made sure to look up the number first. I've decided not to ring them back after all!Advantis5 yearsGot a call from Advantis and it felt like a total scam. Definitely wouldn’t trust them!5 yearsGot a message from ADVANTIS DEBT RECOVERY via this number, heads up it's best not to open any texts they send. Stay cautious!ADVANTIS5 yearsI got a call about some insolvency issue, asking if I’d already settled last month’s bill. Honestly, I’m pretty wary of these types of calls demanding money, so I haven’t paid anything yet. Think I should probably check properly and pay as soon as I’m sure.5 yearsGot this annoying robot call telling me to hit 1, not falling for it.5 yearsThis number just kept quiet the whole time. Judging by what others have said, I guess dead silence is the top thing you get from them.5 yearsGot a voicemail asking me to press one.5 yearsGot a call off someone claiming to be from HMRC accusing me of tax dodging. Total scam! Don’t fall for it.HMRC5 yearsGot a text and a voicemail off 01782971404 about some personal business issue. When I looked it up, the number’s tied to a firm named Advantis Credit. Not entirely certain if it's genuine though. The voicemail sounded like a standard, pre-recorded message.Advantis Credit5 yearsCaller didn't say who they were, just told me to hit 1.5 yearsThey said they were calling from the collections team at AvantiGas.AvantiGas6 yearsGot a random robo call telling me to press 1 to chat with someone. No thanks!6 yearsGot a voicemail from 01782971404, turns out it was some debt collection lot. Problem is, I ain't got any debts.6 yearsGot loads of calls but they never leave a voicemail or anything. Quite annoying, really.6 yearsGot a call from a number I didn't recognise, so I let it go to voicemail. It was some automated message just saying ‘press 1 to talk to an advisor’ with no details about who they were or why they were calling. Feels like a spammy call to me. I've gone ahead and blocked the number.6 yearsI’m trying to figure out which company this number belongs to.Submit Your Own Report (01782 971404)
