08000489291 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 08000489291 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance caller linked to an organisation claiming to offer will writing and legal services, often introducing themselves as Elm Legal Services. Many callers report unsolicited, pushy calls requesting personal details or offering to send documents by post about will updates, with some callers appearing to know limited personal information like names and postcodes. Numerous users suspect these calls to be phishing scams or attempts to harvest sensitive data, especially as the calls sometimes end abruptly or leave vague voicemails. Despite the use of an 0800 number, the consensus is to treat with caution. Blocking the number is common but does not fully stop repeated calls. Visitors are strongly advised to avoid engaging, not to confirm personal details, and to report such calls to UK authorities via Action Fraud for investigation.

3 yearsGot a voicemail telling me to text 759, but I didn't reply. Gonna report it to the fraud people just in case.3 yearsThey claimed to be with Elm Legal Services. I told them nicely I wasn’t interested and ended the call. Blocked the number straight away.Elm Legal Services3 yearsThey claimed to be from some legal firm and said they wanted to send info about wills. I told them I already have one. Then they said it might be invalid if a name changed. I just said thanks but I’ll check with my lawyer and ended the call. Feels like a scam to me, so I blocked the number.3 yearsI received a text telling me to dial 759 to listen to a voicemail. I’m not gonna do it. After seeing what people have said here, I’m definitely reporting it to the fraud department.3 yearsThey said they were from some legal office, wanted to know if they could post me something, and tried to get me to verify my address.3 yearsGot a call from Elm Legal Services, they were trying to sell me something about writing wills.Elm Legal Services3 yearsI received an unexpected phone call from a chap who seemed to know my name and even my postcode! He inquired whether I had drafted a will before or if this would be my initial one. He also asked if I had children under the age of 18 and whether we own our home outright. The whole conversation caught me off guard, to say the least. He mentioned he was from Elm Financial and Legal Services but didn't bother to introduce himself. Curiously, he only spoke about sending some information through the post and promised a follow-up call the following week. It felt peculiar since the call was rather short, and he hung up on me without further ado. I can’t shake the feeling that this might have been a scam. Interestingly, my husband and I had been mulling over the subject of wills recently, but we've not contacted any will-writing services ourselves. I've since blocked his number for good measure.Elm FinancialLegal Services3 yearsThese are just scammers. Blocking them doesn’t really help coz they just ring you again from another fake number. Best thing is to take action and report them. Search for ‘action fraud’ and visit the UK police website. Then go to the phishing report section, scroll down and fill out the quick form to report it.UK3 yearsJust got a call moments ago, but the bloke with the dull voice completely messed up my name, which was a bit annoying. When I asked him to say it again, he just shut me down. Being impolite really doesn’t do any favours for someone trying to sell something.3 yearsWriting scammers here.

Sounds like a classic phishing trick to me! They offered to send me some documents but asked for my full name, date of birth, address and all sorts. Definitely don’t hand over your info to these lot!4 yearsThese lads from ELM legal services keep ringing me about wills and stuff. I haven’t got in touch with them since I don’t need help with that right now, so I’ve put their number down as ANNOYING.

Gotta admit, he was pretty quick-witted for a telemarketer!Elm Legal ServicesGotta4 yearsGot a phone call from some firm about will writing. I told them I wasn’t interested at all, and then the woman tried to say maybe I’d want to update my current will and asked if she could send me some info. Seemed like she was fishing for my address.
