8 yearsI just ignored the call.8 yearsGot a call saying my PPI claim went through, which is odd since I've never made one.8 yearsI got a call from an Asian guy who said I had some unclaimed PPI. Honestly, I struggled to catch what he was saying, so when I asked him to say it again, he just ended the call.8 yearsI got a call from a guy with an Asian accent who told me I’d won a PPI claim, even though I never applied for one. He went on for a while, during which he verified my phone number and address, which was quite irritating. Then he asked for my date of birth, but I refused to give it. This seemed to throw him off, and he kept insisting on having it. He then mentioned the call was being recorded. So, I told him I was recording it too, and he quickly hung up. Definitely a SCAM.8 yearsGot a call from a guy with an Asian accent saying my PPI claim went through. He asked for my name and then when I wanted to know which company it was, he just hung up on me. Definitely sounds like a scam to me!8 yearsI just received a call regarding £1826.19 - seems like that’s the usual figure, doesn’t it?8 yearsGot a call from a persistent guy with an Asian accent who somehow knew my name and kept telling me I was owed PPI. I was busy at work and told him I didn’t want any more calls. Then he rang again at 7:07pm, but I didn’t pick up. I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number now.8 yearsI've received calls from this number on a few occasions today. The initial ones came through while I was behind the wheel, but they decided to ring me again afterwards. A chap named Rick Davies was on the line, claiming I had submitted a PPI request back in 2016 and supposedly had £1,826.19 owed to me by my bank. However, when I began to probe a bit deeper and expressed my suspicions about it possibly being a scam, he abruptly ended the call. Very dodgy indeed!Rick Davies8 yearsGot a call from an Asian lady saying I’d been accepted for some PPI payout and that I was owed money. I told her a couple of times that I never even applied for anything like that, but she just went silent and hung up on me. Sounds like a dodgy scam to me.8 yearsToday I got a call on my mobile from a woman with an Indian accent saying my PPI claim went through. When I asked her what claim she was on about, she got really curt and annoyed. I just ended the call there.8 yearsI really wish they'd just clear off entirely! 🤦♂️💨8 yearsThis number has called me twice now. The first time, the guy who called knew my full name and told me my PPI claim went through, but when I said I hadn’t made any claim, he just ended the call. The second call was even stranger - no one said a word before hanging up. The man on the line sounded Asian, and my phone actually flagged it as a scam.8 yearsToday about 2:10pm, I got a call from a woman with an Asian accent saying my PPI claim had gone through. I said I never filed one and ended the call straight away. Definitely sounds like a scam. The number showing was 01978 449 461. It's so bad how these scammers keep targeting people. I really hope no one falls for it. Why can’t the cops do more to shut this down?8 yearsSome guy with an Asian accent was saying I was owed the sum he named, and that I needed to get life insurance to get it. I told him I’m a solicitor and there’s no way I have to buy anything or pay to get my own money back. You won’t believe it, but he just cut the call right there!8 yearsGot a call from some bloke, sounded Asian, saying I owed £1826 or something like that. Then he started going on about some new law that cuts it by 40% or whatever, total rubbish. I told him I work for HMRC and he better not ring me when I'm busy. Plus, I’m on the TPS list, so told him to jog on. What a muppet!HMRCTelephone Preference Service8 yearsThis is clearly a PPI con artist trying to fish for your personal information. It’s advisable to just disregard the call altogether.8 yearsThis number just rang me up claiming I had a PPI refund of £1826, but to get the payout I needed to buy a life insurance policy first. I told them flat out I wasn’t interested in any insurance, and he got all rude and hung up on me. Seriously, avoid this number and any similar ones - they keep switching their numbers when you block them. Don’t fall for it!8 yearsGot a call from a bloke calling himself ‘Jack’ claiming to be from some place in England. He greeted me by my name and said I was entitled to about £1800 for PPI. Thing is, I’ve never had PPI, so I wasn’t expecting any money for a mis-sold product I never even took out. Looks like just another scam to me.JackEngland8 yearsSomebody just rang me up chattting about how I’d supposedly won £1800 from a PPI claim in a street raffle or something. Told them that can’t be true cause PPI claims aren’t given out like that, plus I’ve never even had PPI so no claim was made. They kept pushing for my details but I ended the call eventually.Submit Your Own Report (01978 449461)
