Victims advise ignoring the calls, not engaging, and blocking the number where possible, cautioning the vulnerable.

Users recommend reporting such incidents to the police and regulators, and using call-blocking technology or services to reduce unwanted contact.

I've just received a phone call from some folks with Asian accents, rambling on about loans and PPI claims! It all feels rather fishy, to say the least. Seriously, how many people of Asian descent go by the name James? It's just a bit ridiculous, isn't it?

I keep receiving these bothersome calls from someone with an Asian-sounding accent. They always call out to my husband by name and then proceed to ask for me as well. It's quite peculiar, as they seem to have some personal information about us. However, the moment I press them on how they got our number, especially since we’re ex-directory, they start swearing and abruptly end the call. Quite the irritating situation, I must say!

After quite some time, I'm finally enjoying a day off, so I'm unsure how frequently they attempt to reach me throughout the day. This morning, at precisely 10:56, I got a phone call where the caller mentioned my last name. Unfortunately, their accent was rather tricky to decipher - I caught wind of something regarding £1800. When I asked them to repeat as I was struggling to hear, their reply seemed rather rude, something along the lines of "go away," before they hung up on me. I've signed up with the Telephone Preference Service, yet it seems more and more like these firms simply disregard it altogether.

I keep receiving persistent calls from this number claiming I have a financial debt owed on a loan. The truth is, I’ve never taken out a loan in my entire life! Shockingly, they seem to have access to my name, address, and even my unlisted phone number, which is quite concerning given that I'm registered with the Telephone Preference Service. They were so insistent that I asked them to forward me the documentation so I could investigate their claims. Now, I’m just waiting to see if it actually turns up!

It appears that this individual shows no signs of stopping their incessant antics. Unfortunately, they're not a rarity; there are countless unscrupulous tricksters lurking about. The Telephone Preference Service seems utterly ineffective these days. Most of these callers appear to come from Asian backgrounds yet have taken to adopting Western names such as John or Jim for their dubious dealings.

I received a call where the person addressed me directly by name, but I firmly declined to engage. To my surprise, they proceeded to recite my address and postcode. They probed about a loan, which baffled me since I’ve never taken one out. When they repeated their question about being Mr. XXXX, I again said no. Their response was shocking: "Bugger off then." It's rather frustrating that our telecom providers don’t take action to block such intrusive calls. We pay a premium for their services and ought to have the power to dictate the type of communication we receive.

I've been receiving calls almost every day from individuals, both men and women, who have quite noticeable Indian accents. Despite being registered with the Telephone Preference Service and having an unlisted number, the calls keep coming.

I've received calls from this number on a daily basis for the past week, sometimes ringing me two times or more in a day. Occasionally, there’s silence on the other end, while at other times, they seem to be pushing a PPI claim. Quite annoying, to say the least!

I just got a call from this number where the guy claimed I took out a loan back in 2005, first saying it was some finance firm.

Then he actually started swearing at me before ending the call abruptly. Quite a rude experience.

I just received a rather puzzling call from these individuals - their accent was quite pronounced (definitely not Scottish, mind you)! It was hard to make out their words, and they insisted they weren't after any personal information. They even transferred me to a supervisor who claimed I had money owed to me... After a while, I decided enough was enough and hung up; I was tired of repeatedly declining their offers! I reckon the insolvency story is a clever tactic - I might just adopt that strategy moving forward. Another cheeky line I often use is mentioning that I reside in a council flat; they tend to hang up pretty quickly when I say that!

I had a rather peculiar call from this number today. The individual on the line claimed to represent a firm called The PPI Reclaims. They guaranteed that they wouldn't require any personal information from me. After a brief chat, I was transferred to a supervisor, but upon probing them about the legitimacy of the information concerning my supposed claim-and pointing out some discrepancies in what they were stating-the caller abruptly ended the call. It's rather puzzling, as I do remember securing a loan around that time. Cheers, Ruth

I received a call from this number too. It matched the details I saw on the teletext. These individuals are nothing but crooks! There really ought to be some action taken by the authorities.

Surely it can't be that difficult to keep tabs on them!

One straightforward way to handle their incessant calls is to inform them that you’re declared bankrupt. You see, individuals who are bankrupt aren’t eligible to reclaim PPI, and I’ve noticed that they tend to back off quite quickly after that. With a bit of luck, the message will sink in, and the phone calls should dwindle to practically nothing. It’s certainly high time these bothersome calls came to an end!

This number's been ringing us for three consecutive days at the same hour, specifically asking for our son by name. Just yesterday, my husband picked up and, upon stating that our son wasn't available, they hung up on him without a second thought, showing quite a lack of courtesy. They've just tried again, and my husband confronted them about their unprofessional conduct from yesterday, firmly telling them to stop calling us. Ridiculous behaviour!

I receive calls from them on a daily basis, relentlessly inquiring about the details of people residing in my home. They also attempt to delve into topics like PPI or injury claims, seemingly in search of a better phone package for myself. It’s rather peculiar; every single caller seems to have an accent reminiscent of India, with never a Scots or British tone to be heard. I find their incessant chatter exceedingly irritating and unsettling-it's reached a point where I dread picking up the phone altogether. Clearly, action needs to be taken to put an end to these bothersome communications.

I've received quite a few phone calls from these folks lately. We've repeatedly requested that they take our ex-directory number off their list, but it seems to fall on deaf ears. Whenever we ask them to cease calling, their tone shifts dramatically; they become quite shouty and aggressive, insisting that we simply cannot ignore them. How on earth do they manage to operate like this? It's rather baffling!

I got a call from an Indian call centre, and the person just kept going non-stop. They did share some info that sounded quite believable, but I had my doubts about it all being true. They mentioned something about a PPI claim and said they’d pass me on to someone else next. The next person would apparently need me to verify some details before I could get £3600. Since I wasn’t confident I could confirm everything properly and the caller wouldn’t shut up, I just ended up hanging up. Seems like they might be pushing people into making fake claims or something.

I've had a rather strange phone call, claiming that Halifax is meant to pay me £5000. The thing is, I've never taken out a loan with them, so it's all very suspect. They had my name and address, which creeped me out, and insisted I had to hang up because a supervisor would ring me back. They even asked me how old I was; I decided to give them a made-up number. From now on, I won’t be picking up any more of their calls. They claim they obtained all my information from Halifax, but I genuinely doubt that.

I just received a rather peculiar call from someone named “Peter,” though he had quite the thick accent that made him sound anything but local. It was a refreshing change from the typical “John Smith” I suppose. He inquired if he could have a word with Mr (our surname), and upon realising he’d reached a woman instead, he promptly asked for Mrs (our surname). When I replied with “that’s me,” he launched into a muddled spiel about PPI, but honestly, it was nearly impossible to grasp what he was rambling on about. It was clear from the get-go that it was a dodgy call, so I hung up promptly.

Spent about ten minutes on the phone with someone who was convinced I'd been sold PPI that I never even asked for or agreed to. Tried to convince me I was entitled to a £1600 refund if I just gave them my main bank details. I wasn't having any of it, so no refund for me!

I received a rather relentless call from someone claiming to be Peter, who apparently hails from India. When I inquired about how he obtained my number, he dodged the question and urged me to hear him out regarding a potential PPI claim that supposedly belongs to me. As it stands, I have nothing outstanding, so I firmly informed him that his approach was nothing more than a cold call. Subsequently, I've taken the precaution of blocking the number entirely. Quite frustrating, really!

Today I received a staggering seven phone calls from these persistent blokes, each one insisting that I had a Lloyds loan back in 2014 which supposedly included PPI, and that I was due some compensation. I assured them that I had never taken out a loan in my life. Yet, they kept ringing back, one after the other. When I cheekily suggested I’d contact Lloyds myself to inform them they owe me money - thanks to what “Stephen from India” told me - he lost his cool and hurled some rather unkind words my way, calling me a time-waster and an idiot! Then, as if that wasn’t enough, yet another individual from the very same number attempted to reach me, followed by still more. I've reported this to the Telephone Preference Service every single time, but, as per usual, they seem to be utterly ineffectual.

I've received repeated calls from the same individual regarding some supposed 'financial' transaction with a bank. No matter how many times I explained that this wasn't the situation, he insisted that my name had popped up in their records. He even put me on hold for about five seconds, claiming he needed to sort out some paperwork. Now, he's promised to ring back in a quarter of an hour. It felt like he was treating me as if I knew nothing, constantly insisting that I should listen, as this bank purportedly wanted to hand me some cash. I questioned why a bank I’ve never engaged with would want to give me anything, but he just stuck to his rehearsed lines.

Received a rather suspicious call at approximately 16:45 today on my home phone. The chap on the other end had a strong foreign accent and astonishingly knew my surname! He claimed I was due a refund for a loan I supposedly arranged many moons ago. I informed him politely that I’ve never taken out a loan, and swiftly ended the conversation. Believe it or not, this isn’t the first time someone’s mentioned a refund for a loan I never had. Can’t say for certain if it was the same number as before, but I reckon had I played along and asked for the details, he'd probably want my bank info right after. Best to stay cautious!

He had all my details - name, address, and postcode - which was a bit disconcerting. I told him to go ahead and send the cash, then cut the line. Honestly, it's such a daft scam! Just a heads-up to everyone, stay vigilant!

I received a call from a bloke with a pronounced Asian accent who claimed that I was entitled to a refund on my PPI. No matter how many times I insisted that wasn't true, he eventually just told me to "F" off! What a delightful way to sell, isn't it?

I refrain from picking up calls from this particular number as I’ve done my due diligence and looked it up previously. It’s rather peculiar; they never seem to hang around long enough for the voicemail to activate. Just a mere five minutes prior to this call, I received a call from a withheld number. The caller, a woman with an Asian accent, was seeking my husband. When I kindly informed her he wasn’t able to take calls at the moment and asked if she’d like to leave a message, she seemed quite flustered and eventually stammered, "Um, no, I'll ring back later." Seems a bit too coincidental to me!

I've been getting relentless calls from this number, and it's driving me bonkers! I've taken to ignoring it now, but that hasn’t deterred them one bit. It’s all about a loan that I’ve never even applied for! What on earth?!

They keep ringing me incessantly, sometimes as many as five times a day! I tend to pick up but remain silent.

I received a call from someone claiming to be with the UK Banking Service, inquiring about my mum. However, his accent was so thick that I struggled to grasp what he was saying. He insisted he was phoning from Newcastle, but it just didn’t sit right with me, so I ended the call. Definitely sounds like a dodgy scam to me.

Received a rather peculiar phone call earlier. Some chap, clearly not local, enquired if he was speaking to Mrs ........ When I probed for his identity, he mentioned he was from the PPI claims department (not that I have any PPI, mind you). I further questioned where he was ringing from, to which he cheekily responded, "Why would I divulge that?" and then promptly disconnected. Quite the nerve!

I find myself in a similar predicament-this number has been incessantly ringing me. Whenever I inquire about their company affiliation, they promptly disconnect the call. I received another one today; I initially assumed it was concerning a PPI application I’d submitted. However, when I engaged further, their information was all askew, particularly since I didn’t take out a loan back in 2004!

I received a phone call today from an individual with a very pronounced foreign accent (not your typical Scottish lilt, mind you!) who claimed to be representing the UK Banking Association. According to my quick search on Google, the number is supposedly from Scotland. This caller informed me that I was owed a refund. Astonishingly, he had all my details - my name, address, and postcode. I replied that it sounded brilliant and suggested he could send me a cheque, which I could then bank. Strangely, he insisted that wasn’t feasible and asked for my banking information to process a direct payment instead. I usually find these sorts of calls rather amusing, but it does concern me for the elderly and those who might be more susceptible to such tricks. Surely, something can be done? What’s even more baffling is that he didn’t even bother to mask his number. Oddly enough, there’s no option for “Scam” in the Call Type categories.

I had a similar experience not long ago. The chap on the phone asked me to hang on while he fetched his boss, but after a few minutes he just told me to hang up and that someone would reach out to me later. I decided to ignore any follow-up calls.

I picked up the phone after having missed a previous call. At last, I heard a voice with a thick accent inquiring if I was ......... I inquired about the nature of their call, and they mentioned something about a loan from nearly a decade ago. When I expressed my confusion, they then adjusted their story to claim it was from 20 years back, asserting I had overpaid this loan. I reiterated that I had no memory of any such transaction and warned them that I would involve the authorities.

Much like others have experienced, I received a rather unsettling message regarding my ex-husband, who had supposedly taken out a loan back in 2005, which, according to them, was settled in 2009. They insisted that I verify this information confidently. After the call, I was advised to hang up, with a promise that I would receive a prompt callback. Feeling uneasy, I hung up and immediately contacted the authorities. What baffles me is that they didn't request any banking details or similar information, leaving me quite puzzled about the whole situation.

This relates to a loan supposedly taken out back in 2004, but I can assure you, there was no loan whatsoever on my part during that year.

I was greeted by an automated woman's voice saying, "You're the sole participant in this conference," and then the line went completely silent. Quite the peculiar experience, I must say. Is this some kind of con?

An eerily similar incident occurred to us just an hour ago! We also requested a cheque to be sent in the post, and were met with a rather rude response, telling us to "bugger off" before she abruptly ended the call. Unbelievable, isn’t it? Ha ha!

Hello there! We’ve received a call purporting to be from the UK Government’s Ministry, claiming they’re looking to process a refund for us. Is that right? Quite frankly, I find it all a bit dodgy. Do us a favour and clear off, will you?

The moment our associate answered the call, a chap inquired about her conversation with Mr Fry. She confirmed she was indeed on the line, but shortly after, they abruptly ended the call.
