I received a call from a lady speaking with an Indian accent, wanting to discuss my PPI refund. When I inquired about who was calling, she abruptly ended the conversation. Quite suspicious, if you ask me!

I received a call from someone alleging to represent something called "The Refund Department," yet he never actually mentioned which company he was affiliated with. Interestingly, it seemed he believed that was an appropriate name for a business. He started going on about a refund in connection with a loan, which struck me as odd since I’ve never acquired one in the first place. When I pointed this out, he feigned bewilderment. After numerous times of insisting that he didn’t possess the information he was talking about, he abruptly terminated the call. I was quite looking forward to crafting a witty response before he asked for my bank details!

Some guy with an Indian accent said he was called Kevin and rang me about a refund because I supposedly had overpaid on some loan. When I asked where he was based, he just said “the refund department”. I wanted to know which company he was with but he only kept saying he worked in the refund department. I told him I never took out a loan, but he insisted I had, about 15 years ago, and asked if I didn’t remember. I told him again I’ve never had any loan at all, and then he just hung up on me!

this person rang me saying they were with the “refund department” but never said which firm they were from. maybe they just made up that title thinking it sounded official? they mentioned something about a refund for a loan I supposedly had. when i told them I never took out a loan, they acted like they didn’t understand. after I kept telling them they had the wrong info, they just dropped the call. luckily, I never got a chance to give them any bank details.

I could only hear laboured breathing, but there were no actual words being spoken!

I've had the misfortune of getting calls from these people twice today and once yesterday, and I’m beyond exasperated. What really gets under my skin is that they've somehow dug up my mobile number, which I guard fiercely and only share with my closest mates and family. It's high time they understood that I simply don't pick up when the caller isn’t recognised. No matter how brusque I might be with these nuisances, it just seems to roll off them like water off a duck's back.

They've rung me quite a few times lately, something about an accident they mentioned. Another occasion it was probably about something else, can't quite remember. Bit annoying, to be honest.

When my mum picked up, she asked the guy what he was trying to sell. He snapped back, "I'm not selling anything, idiot."

I got a call from a number I didn't recognise but since my caller ID showed it I just let it ring. Really appreciate this site though, the reviews here made it easier to decide. Cheers for the help!

I received a call from someone with a distinct foreign accent, likely Asian. They addressed me by my name and mentioned that I had a refund awaiting from my bank! That instantly raised my suspicions and I recognised it as a scam. I politely declined to continue the conversation, but the caller suddenly became quite agitated and started ranting in a language I couldn’t understand. I decided it was best to hang up.

I tried ringing back a number with the 01974 code, thought it was from Wales, but it just said the number wasn’t valid. Bit odd really.

Kept telling me “you want your money back? That’s a scam,” over and over. Definitely shady stuff, felt like a total con. Would not trust this number at all.

I got a call from a guy with an Indian accent, he kept asking for my last name. The call was awful, loads of static and background noise. I told him I couldn’t make out what he was saying and ended up hanging up.

Honestly, I think it's high time we got rid of these endless foreigners cluttering up England. I always tell them to just sod off, even if it's a woman on the phone. The whole lot, including their families, should just take a hike. It’s about time we had our country back from all these bloody Indians and others.
