01793250160 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01793250160 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance caller based in Swindon, frequently associated with cold calls about PPI compensation and financial claims. Many recipients experience silent calls or hang-ups when answering, with some reporting rude or pushy behaviour. Despite some positive feedback on successful PPI recoveries, the majority find the repeated daily calls intrusive and frustrating, often leading to blocking the number. The company behind these calls appears registered as a claims management service but operates via aggressive telemarketing methods, sometimes contacting individuals registered with the TPS. Advice includes blocking the number, using call-blocking services, and not providing personal details over the phone. Caution is advised as these calls are often unwanted, and their legitimacy is questioned by many.

Another firm rings you up and just leaves you hanging when you answer. Really think they should be getting fined for this sort of thing. Maybe I'm just sceptical, but I question if those good reviews are legit.

Got a ring from this number, they wanted to speak to my missus by her first name. I asked what it was regarding and they said it was something to do with finance stuff. I told them my wife aint got any money troubles so no reason for a call like that. Then I said goodbye and ended the call. Not great when supposedly on the TPS list. NUMBER: 01793250160

Really pleased with this company! They helped me recover £12,500 for my PPI. Service was fast and super efficient.

It’s not a scam like loads of folks are claiming, they are actually overseen by the claims management firms. I went straight to my bank about my PPI and they told me everything had been refunded already, but when I used Premier Financial, they got me an extra £4,656. Really good company and the staff were super friendly. Proper happy with how they handled it. People need to do a bit of research and stop jumping to conclusions about these companies being dodgy.

Looks like the same firm keeps ringing me from 01793 250899, 01793 250160, and 01793 250811. I pick up but they just disconnect straight away. I keep blocking the numbers but they just switch to another one and bother me again.

Today, I got a call from 01793250899 around 1:30pm which I ended up blocking. Then later this evening at about 6:15pm on 06.02.18, they rang me again from 01793250160. Had to block that one too. Whenever you pick up, there’s no one there, so it’s pointless to even bother. Just block these annoying numbers straight away.

Used TalkTalk’s 14258 service to block numbers, just had to type ## for the last call blocking or wait for the menu for other options, then put in 1234 as the code. Tried it today after getting about 8 calls while I was painting the house. So annoying!

I’ve gotten a bunch of calls from different numbers all starting with the same STD code, but I don’t know anyone around that area (Swindon). It seems to be a private home number, or at least that’s what it looks like to me, so to get business calls from that type of number just feels a bit dodgy. From what I understand, if the number belongs to a legit company then this site usually shows the business name (please correct me if I'm wrong), which helps to decide if I should pick up or not. I’ve ended up blocking all those Swindon numbers using BT Call Protect.

Like a few others mentioned, it’s really frustrating getting calls on and off all day every day. You’d expect they’d stop after a bunch of unanswered rings, but nope, they keep going. We never pick up any calls from numbers we don’t recognise here.

Saw a few bad reviews about this number so I've gone ahead and blocked it. I usually don't pick up calls from numbers I don’t recognise, just to be safe.

I picked up a call from them but stopped them before they could say who they were, coz they asked for my mum by her full name and she died about 6 months ago :( so I just ended the call. It definitely sounded like one of those call centre calls.

Picked up the phone to some bloke chatting about PPI claims again, same old rubbish. I played along for a bit, they said they’d post some forms or whatever. Heads up - they tried to get my bank details from me, but nah, I wasn’t daft enough to hand that over. These cold calls really do my head in!!!

Premier Financial said they'd do free freedom of information requests to uncover every account number on any finance I've had, and get proof of my ppi so I can try claim it back all the way to the 70s. They're CMC registered too. Really helpful, very informative and the service is free. They use a dialler system that rings a set number of people then hangs up if no agents are free. Quite pleased I picked up the phone!
