02922638480 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 02922638480 👆 is reported as a persistent scam caller originating from Cardiff, frequently using a variety of numbers to evade blocks. Callers often impersonate insurance or claims companies, such as "Midland Claims," and probe about industrial or factory work, sometimes attempting to collect personal details. Many report silent calls, hang-ups upon answering, or rude behaviour when challenged. The calls have no legitimate links to known organisations and frequently lead to blocking by recipients. Users advise ignoring unknown calls, refraining from sharing personal information, and reporting incidents to official platforms. The number is associated with annoyance, aggressive tactics, and phishing attempts, indicating a well-recognised scam operation rather than a genuine entity.

This 02922638480 has rung me 6 times in a single day. I missed the calls, so I tried calling back thinking it might be the hospital following up, since I was waiting for a call from a similar number. But all I got was music playing for about 5 minutes before I hung up. I'm pretty sure this is a scam. It really needs to be stopped because it’s quite worrying and feels like an invasion of privacy.

My phone displayed this number, and as I was expecting a call from nearby about a hospital check-up, I picked up even though the number was unknown. A polite man spoke, requesting my name and mentioning a company name I couldn’t make out at all. I asked him to say the company’s name again, but it was just as unclear the second time. Then he asked if I’d ever worked in a factory. Seemed like some sort of scam, so I hung up and blocked the number straight away.

This number showed up with a Cardiff dialling code. The person on the line had an eastern European accent and said they were from a bank named VEB. They mentioned working with BAE systems and asked if I’d been employed at some site in Wales, but I couldn’t catch the place name. They then asked if I was interested in an 'investment project'. It all felt really sketchy. Didn’t have anything to do with me, so I ended the call and blocked the number.

I just received a rather puzzling call from a chap named Jaye. His accent made it a bit tricky to grasp what he was on about, but it seemed he was representing an outfit he referred to as "Midland Claims." He mentioned he got my number from something that sounded like "Data [something]," whatever that might be. It did unsettle me a touch that he had my full name. I told him I wasn't keen on whatever he was selling and politely thanked him for the call, yet he kept rambling on even as I was trying to wrap things up and hang up.

Before long, you'll be the ones grumbling about higher taxes once you're responsible for putting these workers out of jobs. It'd be quite amusing to see what some of you actually do for a living-bet there'd be plenty to criticise there too!

I kicked off a conversation with Midland Claims right away. They were keen to find out if I had any experience working near machinery in factories and the like. So, naturally, I was curious about the reason behind their inquiry. The woman on the other end seemed rather irritated when I sought clarification, insisting that she needed to finish her question. I pressed again for an explanation, which led to a bit of a back-and-forth. Eventually, she just abruptly exclaimed, "oh, never mind," and abruptly ended the call.

Oh, you won't believe it! Just received another call on my mobile, must be the third time now. I decided to hand it over to my wife; she has a right laugh with them! She keeps them chatting for a good five minutes before finally telling them where to shove it. Apparently, I’ve had some sort of “industrial accident” and they’re keen to take me on as a client-hilarious! Given that I toil away in credit control, the most catastrophic incident I could imagine is a little mishap while texting and ending up dropping my phone on my toe!

So, I've had a rather dubious experience with a chap who phoned claiming to be a computer technician representing PC World/Currys. Naturally, I decided to look into it further and got in touch with the stores, only to find they haven’t the faintest idea who he is. What's more, it appears he's been hopping all over the place, as I've received calls from London, Birmingham, and Coventry. I'm now left wondering if he's possibly shifted his operations to Cardiff, considering he’s just given me a ring from 02922638480. Quite the slippery character, if you ask me!
