Reports on phone number 01942410488
5 yearsJust got another call from one of those 'car accident claims companies' on my mobile. They had my name, which was a bit disconcerting. I informed them that I’d be filing a report with the Telephone Preference Service.Telephone Preference Service5 yearsI received a rather peculiar call from someone claiming to be helping with a compensation claim for an accident I supposedly had, which wasn’t my doing at all. Naturally, I enquired about the information they possessed - my name, the accident date, and whatnot. However, the chap on the other end, who identified himself as Shaun from the 'Motor Accident Bureau', insisted that he couldn't provide those details due to privacy protocols. How quaint! It seemed rather odd that I had to offer my information for them to verify my identity! Interestingly enough, he claimed to be calling from Wigan. It makes one wonder if that might actually be a genuine number, perhaps linked to an actual physical location, instead of the usual dodgy overseas ones we’re all too familiar with. If you find yourself inundated with such calls, feel free to hang up without a second thought. But if you’ve got a few moments to spare, engage them in conversation and refrain from disclosing anything personal - it’s a clever way to keep them busy while you let others go about their business uninterrupted!ShaunMotor Accident BureauWigan5 yearsSome bloke rang me up saying there'd been a small crash involving my car, even though I haven't driven it much because of lockdown.

Blocked the number right away.5 yearsI got a ring from someone using this number, they said they were from some firm called Road Call.
