10 yearsJust to chime in on what’s already been mentioned: It’s definitely Vanquis. Caller: "Hello, could I speak to *my full name* please?" Me: "That's me! How can I assist you today?" Caller: "We’d like to ask a few questions, but we need to conduct a security check first." Me: "Well, hang on-you're the one who rang me?" Caller: "I understand your point, but it's necessary to verify your identity." Me: "Yet you initiated the call! What’s this all about then?" Caller: "I’m sorry, but I can’t reveal any details until after the security check is completed." Me: "In that case, I suppose our conversation is over, isn’t it?" Caller: "Thank you for your time. *ends call*" Absolute sales nonsense! If it were truly urgent, they’d send a letter instead.Caller10 yearsI received a call from this number, claiming to be from Vanquis. I informed the caller that I was tied up at the moment.Vanquis10 yearsIf you wish to opt out, simply ring 08444 097635 and adhere to the instructions provided by the automated system.10 yearsI got a call from this number earlier today, but when I asked who was on the line, they refused to identify themselves. So, I ended the conversation abruptly.10 yearsIt's that Vanquis Bank again, being as insufferably curt as ever! They refuse to reveal their identity while insisting on prying into your personal information. Apparently, they're pushing some daft voucher scheme. I made a bit of a fuss because I was under the impression that dropping calls is against the law, and they've claimed to have taken me off their calling list-though who knows if that's actually true!Vanquis Bank11 yearsThis establishment goes by the name of Vanquish Bank, specialising in credit cards aimed at individuals grappling with poor credit histories. However, be warned - their interest rates are quite steep!Vanquish Bank11 yearsBlimey, they just won't take a hint, will they? They've rung me thrice in just over a week! I really can’t be bothered to entertain their daft proposals.11 yearsSimply add the number to your block list and save yourself the bother. Alternatively, for a bit of a chuckle, why not label it in your contacts as "Chunky Apeman"? That way, you'll have a laugh when that chunky apeman tries to reach out again - haha!11 yearsI've been receiving calls from this number multiple times each day, sometimes up to six times! I've managed to block it on my mobile phone, but I'm at a bit of a loss when it comes to my landline. Does anyone have any advice on how I can prevent these persistent calls from getting through?11 yearsThis number is truly vexing!! It’s from Vanquis Bank, and I strongly advise against picking up the call!Vanquis Bank11 yearsI've received a call from 08082840145, which seems to be associated with a marketing firm linked to Vanquis - Stema UK.VanquisStemaUK11 yearsIt’s Vanquis that keeps ringing my son.Vanquis11 yearsIn the span of just 24 hours, I've received calls from three distinct numbers! Turns out, it’s a persistent sales representative from Vanquish. Quite the nuisance, isn't it?Vanquish11 yearsI've been receiving calls from this number repeatedly. I've blocked it, yet they still manage to show up as missed calls. Remarkably, I've had two attempts from them today, within just four hours, on 21/05/15. It's becoming rather irksome!11 yearsFor the past fortnight, my phone's been bothered daily at around half past nine in the mornings. I've finally had to put them on my blocked list. It's about time there were laws in place to put an end to this sort of nonsense!11 yearsShould you find yourself inundated with calls from this number, it appears to be associated with Vanquis credit card services. My suggestion is to inform them of your intention to terminate your card. Following that, you might consider chopping it up and returning the remnants to them. If enough folks take this stance, there's a chance they’ll cease their persistent ring-a-lings! - Number in question: 08082840145.11 yearsIs there anyone out there who can shed some light on the identity of this number?11 yearsI keep receiving relentless calls from these chancers-definitely give them a miss!11 yearsWhat on earth? Please cease the incessant calls! It’s clearly a scam!11 yearsI've been receiving calls on my mobile that ring two or three times before going silent. It's quite peculiar! I'm about to have a landline installed next week, and I'm left wondering if this mysterious caller will be able to reach my new number as well.11 yearsI’ve recently installed a TV guide application on my Samsung S5, and ever since, I've been inundated with calls from this particular number. Quite the coincidence, don’t you think?Samsung S511 yearsThis number keeps pestering both my mobile and home phone, ringing back-to-back, and it’s really starting to get on my nerves! I’ve chosen not to pick up, as I suspect it’s some sort of scam.11 yearsMy landline gets a call, and straight after, my mobile starts ringing as well. It's incredibly frustrating! Is there any way to sort this out? It’s becoming quite the nuisance.11 yearsIt seems to be Vanquis Bank on the line, which likely means you hold one of their credit cards.Vanquis Bank11 yearsI've been receiving calls from this number, and honestly, I don’t bother picking up. It’s not just calls; I’m also getting the odd text. Seems to me like a scam of some sort. It could be the same number that keeps popping up, trying to entice people with credit offers while fishing for bank details. I've already flagged this with my bank, and they’re looking into it. Thankfully, I've managed to reclaim my funds. They seem to keep swapping their company name, which is quite dodgy. My recommendation? Stay vigilant and don’t fall for their tricks!11 yearsIt’s quite peculiar; my landline and mobile tend to ring in quick succession. Yet, oddly enough, there’s never a soul on the other end when I pick up.11 yearsI had four calls from this number today, none of which left a voicemail. I’m not inclined to pick up the phone. I was under the impression that annoying calls have been made unlawful now?12 yearsI’ve lost count of how many times this number has rung me, it’s absolutely infuriating! Seven or eight calls a day from 08082840145, and honestly, it’s driving me bonkers!12 yearsI keep receiving daily calls, about three to four times on both my landline and mobile. It’s incredibly frustrating because no one ever says a word or leaves a message. Such a nuisance!12 yearsI've received relentless calls from this number, and I'm thoroughly fed up with repeatedly informing them that I have no interest in what they're offering. Honestly, when will someone take charge of this situation? I'm beginning to contemplate a face-to-face confrontation if this doesn't stop soon!12 yearsI've been receiving these pesky phone calls that just won't take a hint. No matter how many times I ask them to stop, they keep ringing my number. It's quite frustrating, to say the least!12 yearsThis number has been incessantly calling both my home phone and mobile, yet remains silent on the other end - it's utterly infuriating!12 yearsReceived a call on my landline today - they didn’t leave any message. Just moments later, my mobile rang, and it was the same number. They claimed to be from Vanquis and asked me to verify my name before abruptly disconnecting. I can only deduce they were hoping I'd ring them back at my own expense. Not a chance, that's incredibly rude!Vanquis12 yearsI keep receiving calls from this number on a daily basis, anywhere between three to five times, but every time I answer, there's utter silence on the other end. It's quite frustrating! I'm certainly not going to call back, as I'm wary it might be some sort of scam designed to hike up my phone bill. I truly wish someone could intervene and put a stop to this absurd scenario.12 yearsIt appears to be Vanquis Bank I'm dealing with. The conversation mirrored my experience with Ash, but there was a twist. I specifically mentioned that I would only disclose certain details and not everything. For instance, when he inquired about my date of birth, I disclosed the month and the year only. However, I stumbled at the end of our chat, and before I could say my farewells, he abruptly disconnected the call. Absolutely appalling levels of customer service!Vanquis BankAsh12 yearsI’m utterly fed up with their constant calls!12 yearsI keep getting calls from them, and it's really rather bothersome. I find it quite irritating, to be honest.12 yearsI've been receiving calls from Vanquis, one of the numerous numbers they operate under - they have 26 in total, if memory serves me right. They ring my landline first, then go straight to my mobile if I happen to miss it. I assure you, my payments are all in order, yet they persist in ringing me every single day, trying to peddle products that I have no interest in at all! It's quite bothersome, to say the least.Vanquis12 yearsIn just under a week, I've received a staggering number of 13 calls from this particular number, including a rather unwelcome one on Sunday! They've been ringing me at all hours, with the earliest being at a rather rude 7:42 a.m. Some time back, I foolishly picked up a call from them, and now I’m certain it’s a telemarketing firm. They're claiming to represent Vanquis Visa, touting a host of discounts for various retailers and services, all for a monthly fee. Honestly, it’s nothing short of nonsense! I would strongly advise anyone to steer clear and either block the number or simply ignore their incessant calls. They have definitely crossed the line into nuisance territory!Vanquis Visa12 yearsI’ve been getting incessant calls from a number that claims to be linked to Road Accident Management or something of that nature, and I have to say, it’s utterly infuriating. They bombard me with anywhere from 8 to 10 calls a day! Every time I politely decline their services, they respond with absolute rudeness before hanging up. It's absolutely disgraceful! I really hope someone can take action against this persistent troublemaker.Road Accident Management12 yearsReceived a call from this number, yet the caller didn’t bother to leave a voicemail. Quite odd, really!12 yearsI suspect this number may be linked to Vanquish or one of their affiliates, as I've just received an offer for a card from them.Vanquish12 yearsWe received a call from this number.12 yearsWe've had a call from this number.12 yearsI received a call earlier today, but I struggled to comprehend what the woman was trying to communicate, so I ended up hanging up! Oddly enough, she mentioned my name, and I do possess a Vanquis card. I just settled my bill last week, so I don't reckon it was them. She kept saying something that sounded like "vain" but when I asked her to spell it out, it didn't make any more sense! Quite frustrating, really!12 yearsI’ve been receiving calls from 08082840145 on my home phone, which happens to be in my son’s room. It’s utterly ridiculous that it rings while he’s trying to sleep; something really needs to change. I’m fed up with the constant barrage of nuisance calls. It’s as if every time I manage to block one number, another pops up in its place. Even after changing my number multiple times, the problem persists! It’s utterly frustrating because if someone harassed me like this in public, there would definitely be legal consequences. Why is it that nothing seems to be done about these mindless calls invading our personal space? I genuinely hope the government takes this seriously and enacts legislation to protect people in their own homes. Reporting these persistent numbers online feels pointless at this stage, as it never seems to lead to any real change. Can we please take some action against these intrusive calls?12 yearsI dashed out of the shower to grab the landline, but of course, I missed it. I then returned to my shower only to hear my mobile ring. With wet hands, I opted to let it ring out. Missed that one too, and lo and behold, no voicemail was left. Not long after, a colleague from work called me to inform me that someone had been trying to reach me at my workplace. Just a reminder, I’m registered with the Telephone Preference Service, and I made it very clear to Vanquis that I’m not interested in their pesky PPI offers. If they dare to ring me again, I’ll have no choice but to get in touch with OFCOM to report them - and I shall be cancelling that utterly pricey credit card of theirs without hesitation. Honestly, in my view, these companies are nothing short of parasites.Telephone Preference ServiceVanquisOFCOM12 yearsI receive calls from this number on a daily basis-first it’s the landline, then the mobile. It’s become exceedingly irritating!12 yearsI wouldn't bother picking up calls from unfamiliar numbers. However, I suppose it does provide a job for some automated system, no matter how incomprehensible they are!13 yearsA caller rang looking to chat with my daughter, who wasn’t around at the time. When I asked what the call was regarding, they only mentioned "information" while waving their flag for the Data Protection Act - quite laughable given the nature of their unsolicited call! Upon returning the call, I received a recorded message from a company named "Stella," offering a number to ring for removal from their list: 0844 409 7635. I’ve already lodged a report with the Telephone Preference Service, as I’m signed up with them, and it seems this outfit is breaching cold-calling regulations.StellaTelephone Preference Service13 yearsI really wish they'd quit pestering me with their incessant phone calls. It's becoming rather tiresome!13 yearsI've been receiving calls from Stellar UK, who are associated with Vanquis Credit Cards, promoting some sort of rewards programme. To be honest, it's hardly impressive, and frankly, quite irritating. I initially signed up for their complimentary trial but ended up cancelling it. That was a few months back, but now I've been bombarded with calls again... I'm simply choosing to disregard them in the hope they finally take the hint and stop contacting me!Stellar UKVanquis Credit Cards13 yearsI tried giving that number a ring back from my home phone, and it mentioned something about Steller (UK). To be honest, I’ve never even heard of them before. I really wish they’d sort themselves out!StellerUK13 yearsI keep receiving calls from this number and it's quite frustrating! They never identify themselves, so I suspect it's just another annoying marketing scheme. I really hope they stop ringing me soon.13 yearsI've had a string of calls intended for my husband, but the callers refuse to disclose their identity, continually citing the Data Protection Act as their excuse. I've made it clear that I'm going to lodge a complaint against them for violating the Telephone Preference Service rules.13 yearsIf you wish to opt out, simply ring 08444 097635 and listen to the automated instructions.13 yearsI’ve got these bothersome numpties calling me daily, seemingly with no purpose whatsoever! It’s utterly baffling. They don’t even bother to explain their intentions, so I’ve taken to just hanging up on them without uttering a word. It's the only way to deal with the nonsense!Submit Your Own Report (0808 284 0145)
