Overall, the consensus is that this number is associated with fraudulent intent and should be avoided.

Luckily, I was tucked away in a Zoom call, so the phone ringing completely bypassed me. When I finally got around to listening to the voicemail, it did mention a name and a company, but the audio was so faint it was nearly impossible to decipher. Even cranking up the volume on the speaker phone didn’t help much. I have a hunch that their voice might become clearer if I press ‘1’ to return the call - the accent sounded a tad Chinese, if I’m not mistaken.

Received a call from a chap claiming to be with the credit inquiry division. Nice effort, old chap!

I wasn't sure who it was, so I rang back and just got a dial-up noise. Feels like it might be a scam to me.

Pretty sure this is one of those spam calls. I picked up but all I got was silence. Then it rang me again and dropped a voicemail with no sound. Definitely blocking this number.

Total scam! They can't even seem to get my name correct. I blocked one of their numbers the other day, and wouldn’t you know it, they just rang me from a different one! Madness!

I was rather disappointed, to say the least. They couldn’t even manage to get my name correct. I was hoping to find out if there were any unpaid debts on my account. There was a chap on the other end with an accent that sounded distinctly Indian.

Tried to get in touch regarding some financial matters with my missus, but the number was blocked. I also made it clear that it's registered with the Telephone Preference Service.

I didn't pick up as it flashed on my screen as a potential scam. Seriously, mate, find yourself a decent job instead!

I received a call from a chap with a distinctly Asian accent, and let me assure you, he wasn’t anywhere near Southampton judging by the poor line quality. He introduced himself as hailing from the so-called “credit investigation department” and pried into whether I had any outstanding debts. When I told him no, he abruptly ended the conversation. It's blatantly a scam-I've never heard of any genuine credit investigation department. It perplexes me why these con artists insist on slapping “department” onto their invented titles. It hardly lends them any credibility; in fact, when I hear it, my immediate thought is that I’m dealing with a bunch of scammers. What a bunch of numpties!

This appears to be a fraudulent operation.

An individual with an Asian accent called, inquiring if he had reached (my name). I told him he was mistaken, and he promptly disconnected the call.

I never received a response. However, I did make a hotel reservation in that vicinity for this week. When I tried to call the number back, it said that the call couldn’t be connected. Oddly enough, I only began getting calls from Southampton after I booked that hotel via booking.com.
