10 yearsI received a call from someone claiming to be associated with Mojo magazine, suggesting that they were trying to sell me a subscription via direct debit. They've somehow obtained my address but were insistent on obtaining my bank details, which I found quite unsettling. I expressed my discontent and told them I would return their call.Mojo magazine10 yearsReceived a call from someone claiming to be Lakesha, who said they were dealing with subscriptions for the Times newspaper. They wanted my bank information, which set off alarm bells. They gave me this number to call back and speak to their 'supervisor.' However, I couldn't find this number in the Times newspaper's official contact list. I chose not to share any personal details.LakeshaTimes10 yearsI had a rather suspicious phone call from someone claiming to be with the Independent newspaper, attempting to persuade me to set up a direct debit. They were after my bank sort code and account number, but of course, I wasn’t about to hand over that sort of information! We asked for a callback number to verify the identity of the caller, and lo and behold, they provided a number that turned out to belong to a company called Clara.net. Not much clearer, I must say!IndependentClara. net10 yearsI received a call from someone purporting to be from Subscription Marketing Limited, stating they were affiliated with my Times subscription.Subscription Marketing LimitedTimes10 yearsI received a call from someone claiming to be Lakesha, who stated that they were selling subscriptions for the Times newspaper. They asked for my bank account information, which set off alarm bells for me. They gave me a number to call back to speak with their "manager," but I couldn't find any contact details for them in the Times directory. Quite suspicious, if you ask me, as they didn't offer any verifiable information.LakeshaTimes11 yearsI received a call from individuals claiming to represent the FT newspaper, stating they wanted to offer us a week's subscription for just a pound. They seemed to have our previous postcode, which caught us off guard, so we ended up sharing our new address with them. However, when they asked for our account details, we felt a bit uneasy about the whole situation. They advised us to call them back after verifying their identity, giving us a contact number to reach them. I’m all for being cautious in situations like this!FT11 yearsHello everyone, I've looked into this number and can confirm that Claranet isn't associated with it in any way. I've reached out to Teloos.co.uk to request that they revise their directory. Best regards, Martin Saunders Marketing Director Claranet Ltd. Managed Hosting | MPLS | Cloud ComputingClaranetTeloos. co. ukMartin SaundersClaranet Ltd11 yearsI received word that the folks behind Mojo magazine were reaching out regarding a subscription offer. They mentioned something about a direct debit, likely due to the fact that we’ve subscribed in the past. Surprisingly, they had our address but were adamant about acquiring our bank details. I must say, I wasn't too pleased with their request and let them know I’d ring them back later. Quite a cheeky approach, if you ask me!Mojo magazine12 yearsI received an intriguing offer for four issues of Computeractive for merely the price of one, along with a complimentary 1GB USB stick. However, when I hesitated to provide our banking details over the phone, the representative claimed her name was Steven Butler, representing the subscription and marketing section of the bi-weekly publication. She even supplied a contact number: 02079033000. Strange thing is, this number doesn’t appear on their official listings on Yell. Curiously, when I attempted to return the call, I was met with a recorded message instead.Steven ButlerYell12 yearsWe received a call after requesting a free issue of Money Observer magazine, presumably to entice us into a subscription. They appeared to be genuine in their approach.Money Observer12 yearsIt's only fair that Lets Subscribe realises that people naturally feel wary when companies request bank details during unsolicited phone calls. It would be far more reassuring if these individuals operated through the magazines they claim to represent, allowing for proper verification of their authenticity.Lets Subscribe12 yearsI received a call from a chap touting a special offer for Saturday Times with free delivery, which initially piqued my interest. However, when he asked for our bank details over the phone, I felt rather uneasy about it. I suggested he send a form through the post instead, but he was quite reluctant to do that. Instead, he gave me a number to ring back for verification - 020 7903 3000. I tried calling about seven times, but after that, I decided to stop, as it all seemed a bit dodgy.Saturday Times12 yearsI received a call from a chap promoting a Saturday Times delivery deal that supposedly came without a charge. I showed a bit of interest until he started asking for our bank details over the phone. Naturally, I wasn't too pleased with that and suggested he send a form through the post instead. He seemed rather unwilling to do that but gave me a number to ring back for verification-surprisingly it turned out to be 020 7903 30. I ended up receiving about seven calls from them before they suddenly stopped, which struck me as rather suspicious.Saturday Times12 yearsI recently received a call supposedly from The Times, trying to sell me a subscription at a 22% discount. They then prompted me for my bank details and gave me the number 02079033000 to reach them for payment over the phone. We became suspicious and decided to question the legitimacy of the call.The TimesSubmit Your Own Report (020 7903 3000)
