Phone number ☎️ 08448241820 👆 is reported as a number linked to Advantis Debt Collectors who repeatedly call people, often demanding urgent callback but then not answering. Many recipients claim they have no debts and feel harassed, with calls sometimes made at odd hours, including to workplaces. The callers can be secretive about their identity initially and uncooperative when complaints are raised, refusing direct manager contact. Some have been disturbed when calls went to ex-directory numbers or new phone numbers previously assigned to others. The constant ringing frustrates and annoys those contacted, with reports of silent calls, messages, and aggressive tactics that cause stress, especially for elderly people. Multiple alternative numbers are used by this company, increasing the nuisance experienced.
Reports on phone number 08448241820
10 yearsI've been receiving calls every day from Advantis using the number 01782401123. As I have no outstanding debts, there's really no reason for me to engage with them. I've opted to ignore their calls so far. However, they've now switched to an 0844 number, 08448241820, and when I answered today, there was nothing but silence on the line. I won’t be picking up again and will be lodging a report with the Information Commissioner's Office soon.AdvantisInformation CommissionerOffice11 yearsToday around half past two, my home received a rather alarming phone call that left my elderly mother, who is 75, quite fraught. A woman on the line from a company claiming to be Advantage insisted it was urgent that she speak to me and mentioned she was calling from the hospital, which understandably set off warning bells. I promptly rang the number back, 01782 401123, only to discover it belonged to a debt collection agency. I relayed the entire situation to the person on the line and requested to speak with a manager in order to lodge a formal complaint. To my dismay, I was informed that the only way to reach a manager was by leaving my contact details, after which they would get back to me within a week. I made it clear that I found this wholly unacceptable, yet was met with a rather indifferent “that’s how it is” response. It’s incredibly frustrating!Advantage11 yearsMy phone went off at 18:41 on the 5th of November 2012 but I chose not to pick up. I later rang '1471' to find out the number that called me: 0844 824 1820. Ever since I switched over to 'Virgin Media' and got this new phone number, I've been inundated with more than 80 calls from various debt collectors - clearly trying to reach someone who isn't me!Virgin Media11 yearsThis appears to be from Advantis Debt Collectors. Typically, they ring from 01782 401123, so this number was a bit of a surprise. I've also noticed that they sometimes utilise the number 08445565440.Advantis Debt Collectors11 yearsSo this number rang us up and started asking for our address, but wouldn’t say who they were at all, so we just hung up and didn’t give anything away! Then they threatened to send a letter to our place, haha, if they already know it then why even bother asking us? Are they daft or what!11 yearsI received a call today from this number, but my partner and I couldn’t pick up. Honestly, I have no intention of returning the call since I’m not in debt to anyone. If it truly matters, I’m sure they’ll ring us again. I’ll simply explain my side if they do. Should they persist in bothering us, I won’t hesitate to involve the authorities for harassment. It’s wise to take action if they refuse to back off.11 yearsYesterday, I received a staggering eight calls from 0844 824 1820, and for the past few weeks, I've also been inundated with calls from 01782 401123, which I just ignore. Out of sheer curiosity, I rang the number back using a withheld number, and it turned out to be Advantis Credit. Strangely enough, there's never anyone there when I answer. I don’t owe anyone anything - so why do they insist on harassing me?11 yearsThis number keeps ringing us on a daily basis, but we never pick up. Anyone know who it might be?12 yearsSo frustrating! They ring me nonstop and always leave these urgent messages telling me to call them back, but when I do, no one ever picks up! It’s like they call at all hours - morning, night, you name it. Turns out it’s from Advantis debt collectors, but I’ve never owed them a penny! Honestly, just leave me alone already!Advantis12 yearsYou might want to take note of this other number: 08445565440. Should they persist and not give you any peace, don’t hesitate to reach out to the authorities. It’s certainly a wise course of action!12 yearsI’ve just switched to a new place and got a fresh phone number from TalkTalk, but ever since then, I’ve been bombarded with loads of annoying calls and texts from these lot. I’ve never owed anyone money, so I really don’t get why this keeps happening. It’s seriously got to end.TalkTalk12 yearsEarlier today, we received a call from this number, and the caller was searching for someone who hasn’t resided at this address in over three years! To make matters even more peculiar, our number was on an exclusive list, and we only obtained it a couple of months ago! Quite odd, isn’t it?12 yearsI ended up ringing a number that’s ex-directory, no one actually lives there, and no link at all to Advantis. I tried calling the same number back to make a complaint, but after the usual welcome message asking me to hold, it just disconnects. After a bit more digging I found the company’s registered details in Stoke on Trent - you know, the pottery town - and their listed number 01782 400400 is totally unreachable. I’m leaving this here because the householder is getting harassed even though they’ve no connection to this firm, and I really wanted to let them know about the mix-up, but now I’m stuck because no one’s picking up today. Properly annoying!AdvantisStoke - on - Trent12 yearsHonestly, I’m so fed up with these annoying calls! When will they just leave us alone already?!12 yearsI’m at my wit's end with these incessant calls, receiving three a day! It's utterly maddening. We certainly don’t want to engage with a debt management company either. Any suggestions on how we can put a stop to this?13 yearsThis number keeps calling my work phone and for some reason, all my coworkers are picking up and pretending to be me! Is that even allowed? They ring my work line almost daily now and it's honestly driving me up the wall!!13 yearsIf these idiots ring me again, I’m just gonna blast the ding dong tune right down the line every single time. Sure, I’m aware I owe cash and I will pay up, but hounding me non-stop with calls isn’t gonna speed anything up.13 yearsAbsolute nightmare, this call wouldn’t stop ringing. Felt like being hounded by telemarketers times a thousand!13 yearsWho on earth keeps ringing me from this number?! I’m beyond fed up with these pointless calls, such a waste of time and so frustrating. Honestly, I’m hardly scratching the surface when I say I’m proper angry about it! Once I track down where these calls are coming from, I’ll drop by their main office and make sure every phone line gets sorted out! It’s completely unnecessary for anyone to have to get calls like this, and if it carries on, mark my words, I won’t hold back. My name’s Daniel Riess, and if I get another call from this number, you’ll definitely remember it!Daniel Riess13 yearsI get calls from these people a few times every week, but today was different - they were asking for the bloke who had this number before, but he lived miles away. Cheers, Talk Talk, for handing me this number. Now I’m stuck with calls from folks who clearly know him but have no clue who I am. Honestly, I wish I could’ve held onto my old number. I only got this one when I switched to Talk Talk and since then, it’s been nothing but hassle. Proper nightmare!Submit Your Own Report (0844 824 1820)
