Cabot Financial called and kept asking loads of personal details but wouldn't say why they were ringing until I gave it. I refused and told them not to ring back unless they explained the reason for the call. They said they'd call again, but I warned them once more not to bother or I'd report them to OFCOM. As soon as I saw this page and realised they're just dodgy people chasing old debts they shouldn’t, I blocked their number straight away.

Oi, Mike! It seems these folks are really getting on people's nerves with their antics. Perhaps you should answer the phone just to let them know you're not interested in a chat and would rather they communicate via email instead. It might be wise to jot down a record of all their calls too, in case you need that information later. The number in question is 01732 524610. Just a thought!

Got a call from Cabot Finance. The bloke asked for me by name and tried to run through some security checks. I told him I’ve never heard of them and wasn’t giving out any info. When I pressed him for their office address, he couldn’t give it and just said it was on a letter they supposedly sent. Then I asked what address they had for me, and he refused to say, saying it was for security reasons. I told him I already know my own address, so that excuse was rubbish, called him out for being a scammer, and called him a name that rhymes with “rat.”

Cabot kept ringing me about some sort of fallout I had with Yorkshire Bank over just a quid, yeah one measly pound! Somehow, the bill shot up to £161 and this was ages ago like 8 years back. Totally past any legal timeframe. Told those idiots to go jump and still they don't stop, even tho I blocked their number ages ago.

You can stop those pesky calls by using ring barring through BT or other network providers. Essentially, it allows you to opt out of certain incoming calls. Just give your phone company a bell, and they'll be able to provide you with all the details. That should put an end to those annoying interruptions!

I can’t believe this ruddy number has been driving me up the wall! It's non-stop - calls all afternoon and into the night. As soon as I pick up, it's the same old story. Apparently, they're doing some marketing for RBS, trying to fish for information regarding our account. I told them outright not to call again, and what do you know? My phone rings off the hook yet again! It’s enough to make anyone lose their marbles! AAARRGH!

these people are total scammers, they avoid answering anything properly and just try to trick you into handing over cash if you owe money. they pretend to be from legit companies but they're not. dont ever share your personal or bank info with them, they probably got your info from some database. honestly, dont fall for their lies, theyre just con artists and something should be done to stop them completely.

cabot financial is a total scam, dont trust them with any info they ask for. They claim to work with banks, loan sharks and debt companies, but it’s all lies. If you owe money, dont tell them anything. I always pay my debts on time and if i miss one, they call me directly. I just wanna warn everyone, dont fall for their tricks. A mate of mine was drowning in debt and they phoned him, he gave them his details and lost over £9,000 from his account. Luckily he got it sorted with some help. These people need to be stopped, so dont give them the satisfaction!

I've been inundated with calls from this number lately. Having caller ID allows me to see that it's a marketing line, so I don't bother picking up. However, they're quite persistent, ringing at all sorts of hours-from 8 in the morning right through to 9 at night! I even signed up for BT's privacy service, yet the calls keep coming. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to put an end to this nuisance?

Had a call from this number yesterday, inquiring about an individual I've never encountered before. I informed them it was a wrong number. Today, they tried again but I wasn't able to answer. After doing a bit of snooping online to find out 'who’s been trying to reach me', it seems they're a debt collection agency. The thing is, I have no outstanding debts, and there’s nobody else residing here who would be in that situation. If they decide to ring me again, I’ll just let my phone buzz away in silence.

For ages, we've been tormented by these nuisances as well, and we've finally decided to take the plunge and buy a new phone. Isn't it odd how there's hardly a peep from them during the day? Yet the moment you make a call or answer, they seem to come crawling back just moments later. Makes you wonder if they’re keeping tabs on our devices, doesn’t it?

Here's a clever little trick for you. When someone rings up looking for a specific person, tell them to hang on while you go and get them. Then, just hang up and leave the phone off the hook for the next half an hour. It'll be on their bill, and while they're tied up with your line, they won’t be able to make any calls to anyone else. A right good way to bide your time, if you ask me!

I receive this call roughly five or six times throughout the day... apparently it’s Vodafone. The incessant ringing is utterly ridiculous! Even if you register with the TPS, they still manage to harass you. It’s not entirely their fault; that’s more down to the TPS, really. Being ex-directory simply means your number isn’t listed in the phone book, but there are countless ways they seem to obtain your digits. It's baffling!

This number seems to call for my husband each day without fail; today alone, they've tried reaching out eight times! Each time they ring, I request them to send him something in writing, yet we've received nothing thus far.

It’s Vanquis Bank on the line again, incessantly ringing from 7:30 in the morning until 9 at night. It’s quite bothersome, really. They seem to be merely checking what time it is for me on a daily basis, typically using some automated system. When the phone is picked up, that’s when they swoop in. I found their manner rather off-putting, to say the least, especially as I tried to propose a payment plan to settle my debt. I suggested an upfront payment of £50 and then £50 a month for the next three months, but they flatly refused. Now, given the attitude of the last representative I dealt with, I’ll simply wait and offer a pound weekly instead. Quite infuriating, to say the least!

If you’re looking for a straightforward method to handle those pesky ringing calls, give this number a bell and discuss your outstanding debts with them! Just to clarify, it’s not some sort of sales pitch; these individuals are the ones tasked with recovering debts that have been acquired from various significant credit and retail cards. Honestly, they're just doing their job! There's no wrongdoing on their part!

Calls from this number aren't random marketing attempts; instead, they originate from a legitimate debt recovery firm (though their tactics could be debated). They are still prohibited from making an excessive number of silent calls, but interestingly, the same regulations don't seem to bind them as they do for marketing agencies.

Last evening, I was on the receiving end of a call from this number. Honestly, I couldn’t be less bothered about their identity; I have zero interest in whatever they’re attempting to peddle. I typically ignore my phone entirely and keep my voicemail activated, as any authentic caller will drop a message, giving me the chance to call them back, won’t they?

Just let it ring away; I never did discover who was on the other end, and honestly, I couldn't give a toss.
