5 yearsWhenever I complain about annoying calls to the British Choice, it seems like the amount of calls only goes up. Is it even worth reporting them? I wonder what actually happens with all these reports people send in.5 yearsGot a text from this number saying there was some activity on a device attempting to get into my HSBC account. It told me to click on a link to check it out. But I don’t even have an HSBC account, so it felt really dodgy to me.HSBC6 yearsGot a message saying my car tax was declined because they didn’t have the right documents.
