Greetings all, I’ve stumbled across some crucial information about these dodgy loan sharks. If you continue scrolling, you’ll even find the Facebook profile of one of the individuals involved. Feel free to reach out to them directly via Facebook or one of the provided phone numbers. Here are a few links to check out: - www.theonlinepeopleuk.co.uk - www.mrborrower.co.uk - www.fasteasyandonlineuk.co.uk - getaloanfaster - www.securethatloan.com The mastermind behind the incessant spam messages plaguing your phones is a chap named Martin Nolan. You can reach him on 0845 524 0162. His company's details are as follows: Sandhurst Associates Advantage Business Centre 132-134 Great Ancoats Street Manchester Lancashire M4 6DE I've gathered additional intel via Yahoo; the number is affiliated with an entity going by the name getaloanfaster. This outfit collects data on declined loan applications and earns a commission from any business that arises from it. The registered name of the business is Sandhurst Associates, and their official address seems to be 139 Red Bank Road, Bispham, Blackpool FY2 9HZ, which actually belongs to their accountants. The accountancy firm, Stanley Wilkinson & Co, can be reached at 01253 350700. If you’re after their data acquisition number, it’s 0845 413 0570. Interestingly, they only established their company in July, with directors named Alex James, David Maude, and Paul Livesey. Curiously, there’s no sign of them on the FSA register. The directors of getaloanfaster/Sandhurst Associates include: - SALLY MAUDE - SANDRA JAMES - LINDA STEWART - PAUL LIVESEY - ALEX JAMES - DAVID MAUDE - PAUL LIVESEY Here’s a link to Paul Livesey's Facebook profile: - www.facebook.com/people/Paul-Livsey/613997023 And if you're keen to see one of his advertisements: - www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=196912700857&v=info Don’t hesitate to get in touch with them and express your frustrations; it must be infuriating receiving those texts. Especially when you reply with "stop," only for your number to be deemed 'active,' leading to further messages from different numbers. They then sell your ‘active’ details to additional third parties. Look who’s popped up: MARTIN NOLAN Silverstone Innovation Centre Silverstone Circuit Silverstone Northants NN12 8GX United Kingdom +44.8703505044 Secure That Loan, previously known as Get A Loan Fast, appears to be a loan brokerage operating out of Manchester. They’ve resorted to advertising their services via SMS. A UK blogger, James Wiseman, conducted an insightful probe into their operations. They employ various aliases to promote their main website, securethatloan.com, and they also possess www.securethatloan.co.uk. They utilise a multitude of phone numbers for their calls and messages, including: - 07521599876 - 07557287194 - 07581497818 - etc., reaching up into the hundreds. Do bear in mind, these companies don’t directly provide loans; rather, they act as intermediaries for a fee. The APRs they promote are considerably higher than typical lending rates, and the lender they recommend will impose all manner of terms and conditions. Sending the opt-out message “STOP” may actually set you back at least £1.50, on top of your usual network charges. While some might cease sending you unsolicited messages, many won’t, and they happily sell on your information to another affiliate company, perpetuating the cycle of spam. I must say, I've received over 50 messages from these online loan rascals, and my advice is simple: do not engage. Never reply or initiate contact with them; it’ll only lead to further issues as they label your number as active. Beware, because failing to opt out on financial forms registered with the TPS is a legal loophole that they seem to exploit. And wait, there’s more! It’s rather amusing-there’s even a ‘customer’ review that allegedly praises their service. (Side note: If you click on the hazard icon next to the review link, it indicates that the review was penned from the same IP address as one used by the company. Quite the coincidence, wouldn’t you say?) “I was in need of a loan to streamline my debts into one monthly payment. I spoke with Paul who guided me on what I could handle. He assisted in negotiating a settlement for a charging order on my property, and forthcoming with the lender's acceptance, I had no qualms. Thanks ever so much for your help; I’ll be sure to recommend you to anyone who’ll listen.” - Andrea Thompson, Manchester What a stellar review, Andrea! Keep your wits about you!

I've received a rather peculiar call from this specific telephone number.

Received some bothersome text messages from extramoneymatters.co.uk, leading me to getloanfaster.co.uk, which seems to be run by a company called Sandhurst Associates. Quite frustrating, really!

I can completely relate to this situation. It’s rather tiresome dealing with these individuals, and it would be splendid if the financial ombudsman could look into how they operate.
