I’m absolutely fed up with receiving calls on my mobile about supposed unsecured debts that I'm diligently paying off each month. I told the caller quite firmly that I have no such debts, to which they surprisingly apologised for the inconvenience-a rare occurrence, as most of them love to threaten me with the fraud squad knocking at my door! It's utterly infuriating and a waste of my money every time they call. I’ve now added them to my blocked numbers list to avoid any more hassle!

I received a call on my mobile today whilst I was at work from this number. When I picked up, the caller asked for someone I didn’t recognise and his speech was rather muddled. He then uttered my first name, which caught me off guard, so I probed for more information. To my surprise, he claimed I owed money to a company, but when I pressed him for details about which company it was, he simply hung up on me. Quite dodgy if you ask me!

Received an earful of verbal belittling from someone on this number. The language was incredibly harsh, and it really put a dampener on my day.

I've just had a phone call claiming that I owe some cash. I informed them that I didn't owe anything, and they promptly hung up on me. They mentioned it was some sort of citizens’ advisory fee of £13.50. How strange!

Received a call from this number earlier today, but unfortunately, I wasn’t able to answer. When I tried ringing back a bit later, all I encountered was a pre-recorded message informing me that it belonged to a marketing firm. It went on to say that all their agents were tied up and couldn’t take my call right then. Quite frustrating, really!

I received a call from someone insisting that I had some unsecured credit that needed settling. I asked him to specify which company he was referring to, and to my surprise, he abruptly disconnected the call.

Gave us a ring earlier today; sadly, we don’t have their number stored in our phone, and they didn’t leave any sort of message for us. Quite puzzling, really!

Hello there, I've been getting calls from the number listed above, with the callers claiming to represent the Office of Fair Trading concerning a complaint. However, I found the conversation utterly confusing. They ended the call rather abruptly, and when I tried to return the call, the line was out of order. These calls keep coming in, and it’s quite frustrating! Is there a way to put an end to this nuisance?
