I got a phone call from Accident Advice Bureau and when I said I hadn’t been in any car accident, they basically called me a liar. Then they started threatening to pass my info on to some fraud team! Honestly, it was really sketchy and just felt like harassment.

Honestly, these calls are really annoying. I've blocked this number along with a bunch of others like it. Starting to get seriously tired of all this.

Honestly, the smartest move is to just drag out the call so they waste their own time (and hopefully leave someone else alone for a bit). I've had my number on the Do Not Call registry for like 10 years now, so technically they’re not allowed to ring me. Feels like it’s some dodgy call centre overseas using a false London number to try and fool me. Such a pain!

He kept asking if I'd been in any recent accidents, whether I'd made a claim, and also for my car's registration number. I didn't feel comfortable and asked who he actually was since he wanted personal info. Then he was like, "What personal details are you talking about?" and I told him "the rego number of my car". If they sense you're not interested or hesitant, they'll just cut the call off without a word.

He told me his name was Lakson and even spelled it out, which was a bit suspicious. When I questioned where they’d found out about my accident, he mentioned it was from the “RTA - Road Traffic and Accident Department.” I asked him to explain more, and he babbled something about a government agency. But when I pressed, asking, “So, that’s an official government department?” he suddenly got dodgy. Of course, there’s no such department at all - seems like he was just trying to sound legit.

They kept ringing me non-stop until I finally picked up. Some nonsense about a car crash they said wasn’t my fault. I made it clear I wasn’t interested and asked them to take my number off their list. But guess what? They’ve called again loads of times since then. When I said again to a rude lady that I wanted to be taken off, she just slammed the phone down. Just got another call now... bloody annoying.

A woman rang me asking about a car accident I've had in the past couple of years, but I never got the company name or her name. I told her I hadn’t been involved in any blameworthy crashes recently. She said she'd remove my number from their calling list, but I'm waiting to see if that actually happens.

I reckon it might be because I recently put my number into some online forms for holiday bookings or transfers. Just got a ring from 02079461980 - and apparently, others have too, not long after I booked flights and transfers online. I used Travel Republic and Ryanair for those, so maybe it’s just a coincidence, but I’m suspicious since I hardly ever get spam calls and usually don’t share my mobile number online unless I have no choice, like with these bookings.
