My 85-year-old father has been inundated with calls from them, so I insisted they cease their incessant ringing.

I picked up and the call just ended right after.

This number has rung me quite a few times, always at least twice every day. It's really annoying, and no matter how clearly I say “Leave me alone,” they just don’t get it.
8 years
This number kept ringing me all day, at least twice daily, sometimes more. I honestly have no clue why they don’t get the message when I tell them to “leave me alone” in no uncertain terms. So frustrating!

Got a call from this number earlier, picked up and the guy asked if I was [my name]. I said yeah, then he went on about some claim being approved or whatever. I told him I had no idea what he was on about and then he just ended the call. Pretty obvious scam if you ask me. Someone should definitely report this.

I received a dodgy call about PPI, where they promised to send me a cheque. However, they mentioned that my bank would snatch 40% off the payment! They then insisted I share my income, tax, and banking info for a direct deposit. The moment I suggested it sounded like a scam, they ended the call without hesitation. Quite shady, if you ask me!

Got a call from a bloke with a funny accent saying I was owed £1800 for some PPI thing. I’ve never even had a PPI claim, so what’s that about?
8 years
He rang up sayin there was a PPI refund of £1800 waiting because of some scheme about looking into PPI claims here in our area. Then he asked for personal info to “confirm” before they could dispatch the cheque. Nothing fishy about that, right?

The phone just keeps ringing but no one picks up.

I've gotten calls from them at least six times today. Every time I pick up, they just put the phone down straight away.
8 years
I got two calls from this number.

This number, 01978 350676, is definitely a PPI scam. Watch out and don't get caught by it!

I've had this bloke from abroad ringing me up loads about PPI. Told him I wasn't interested ages ago, but still, I've gotten like four calls from the same number today!
8 years
Honestly, the TPS doesn’t seem to do much good at all. I'm on the list, yet I still get blasted with these annoying calls nearly every single day. Luckily, I’ve got a BT8500 phone which blocks all those rubbish calls from coming through, but I can still see who’s been ringing me up.

Got a call from some bloke claiming to be Tony Smith, sounded like he was from overseas. He was asking for some insurance money to sort out a PPI claim I'd never even made. Seemed dodgy straight away!

They rang me a couple of times but each time I missed it. No answer from them when I tried back.

Just got a call saying, "Congratulations, your PPI claim went through." Hold on, what PPI claim? I've never even made one! So suspicious…
8 years
I keep getting calls from someone with a Middle Eastern or Indian accent, asking for a person who I've had to explain several times is no longer alive. These calls are pretty upsetting and feel like harassment. I just hang up since I never asked for or wanted these calls in the first place.

This guy was anything but polite, rang up saying a payment had gone through to my mum, who was supposed to get over a grand. When I mentioned it was about someone who passed away last year, he just cut the call off. Proper rude!

As soon as I asked who was calling and where they got my number from, they just hung up on me.

Got two calls within like ten minutes, but no one picked up when I answered.

I keep receiving calls from a number I don’t recognise, and it’s driving me up the wall! They ask for someone whose name I’ve never heard of, and I end up losing my temper and cutting the call. It happens over and over, like clockwork-sometimes even ten times in a single day! It’s utterly maddening!

My landline kept ringing for what felt like ages, around a minute and a half, while I was on my mobile chatting with someone. It was like it was redialling over and over. When I finally picked up, there was complete silence on the other end. Weird!
8 years
Got a call asking for a different person and they started talking about some PPI claim, told me I should sort one out!
8 years
Been getting calls every few minutes for the past 10, they ask some name I've never heard of and then just drop the call. Really odd!
