08452717171

I've received quite a few calls from this number over the last few weeks. When we rang them back to explain that we have no outstanding debts, they were surprisingly polite. They assured us they would remove our details from their records. Quite the relief, really!

It's rather vexing that these individuals have managed to acquire our work number and incessantly bombard us with calls. It's becoming increasingly bothersome, especially since we're meant to be free from personal calls during office hours. We've made it clear that they need to stop calling, yet they persist regardless.

I keep receiving calls from these individuals who inquire about someone who hasn't been associated with this number for ages. They abruptly hang up without disclosing their identity or clarifying their purpose. It's quite frustrating, to say the least!

We've had this number give us a bell twice at the office over the last month or thereabouts. We tend to just let it ring out to voicemail since they never bother leaving a message. Curiosity got the better of us today, so we decided to call them back to find out what was going on, and lo and behold, someone actually answered! It was a rather dull “Hello, you’ve reached MoneyGroup.” Naturally, we promptly hung up!

Received a call from them, claiming they had a conversation with us the day before. Utter nonsense, mind you. Then they proceeded to bombard us with invasive questions. Ended the call abruptly. How did they even get our name and what other details do they possess? This sort of spam must be put to a stop!

This number has buzzed our work line a couple of times over the last month or thereabouts. We tend to just let it ring out and send it to voicemail, as they never bother leaving a message. Curiosity got the better of us today, and we called back, just to satisfy our intrigue. To our surprise, someone actually answered with, "Hello, you’ve reached MoneyGroup." Well, that was enough for us to promptly hang up!

Just received a missed call from 08452717171 about ten minutes ago. I've no idea who it could be. Has anyone else encountered this number?

We told them a fib saying we were officially bankrupt, yet we were curious whether we could still obtain a loan or a credit card. They ended up hanging up on us without a word!

What’s the best way for you to...

Hi there, I just noticed I had a missed call from this number, so I decided to ring them back. I ended up listening to a pre-recorded message from something called 'The Money Group'. It seems they’re probably trying to pitch me some sort of loan. Cheers!

Greetings, everyone! I suggest we adopt a similar approach to what we typically do - act as if we’re genuinely intrigued and then drop the bombshell that we owe the bank a whopping million pounds. So, once we’re able to, let’s give them a heads up that these folks can anticipate their payment shortly!

This is a company that deals with refinancing.

As a lone parent, I’m permitted to have our mobile on me whilst at work, and honestly, these incessant callers nearly put my job at risk. My boss was getting quite irate, to say the least. Eventually, I returned their call, and upon my superior informing them that any further interruptions during working hours could result in me losing my position, they seemed to back off for a while. However, that truce only lasted about four months before they resumed their pestering ways.

I genuinely find great amusement in cold callers. You’ve every right to have a bit of fun at their expense, and it just requires a dash of cunning and perhaps a cheeky sense of mischief. Time is quite precious to the money-hungry lot, after all. Why not pick up the phone and maintain a blissful silence? Just pop your receiver next to the telly, allowing them to immerse themselves in some daytime TV gossip. If that strikes you as a tad too easy, why not concoct an extravagant tale? You could claim to be speaking on behalf of the police, letting them know that their call might inadvertently be linked to criminal activity. Perhaps spin a yarn about your troop being under siege from Taliban forces far away in Afghanistan, insisting that survival is looking rather bleak. Another entertaining approach might be to pretend you're the local curry shop and start taking orders. Or you could regale them with tales of your wealth, extending an invitation to an extravagant soirée that doesn’t exist, just to see if they’d take the bait. The possibilities are endless when it comes to dealing with cold callers. Let your creativity run wild, and soon enough, they’ll be so exasperated that they’ll happily remove you from their lists!

We've only had this new mobile number for a mere four weeks, and now we're getting calls from these individuals.

We've received around twenty calls from these people, and whenever we answer, there's nobody on the line. We're in the process of getting our mobile provider to put a stop to this, as it's becoming quite bothersome!

One can certainly take action against them for harassment, especially when they have the audacity to ring you at your place of employment, and you’ve never provided them with your work number or any contact details, for that matter! It's outrageous!

When you bellow "CLEAR OFF!!!" down the line, just as we did, surely these folks ought to take the hint.

Indeed, it appears that it's 'moneygroup' trying their hand at providing loans.

I received a call from a loan company that was trying to get in touch again. They were discussing applications and the high level of interest, which is apparently why it’s taking ages to connect with them.

What a load of nonsense! "Hello there, we're definitely not here to sell you anything, just looking to assist you in managing your unsecured debt." I’ve told them to stop calling, raised my voice and unleashed a proper tirade of expletives on them, even pretended to be daft with some ridiculous accents or names. Yet, they persist in ringing me up! It always seems to happen just when I'm deep into an Xbox session, which is the most annoying time for it! So frustrating!

We’ve also received a call from this number. Does anyone happen to know who’s behind it? Any insights would be greatly appreciated!

I received my first call from this rather inscrutable number last week. My Caller ID filters them out, and I’ve never bothered to return such calls. As a result, I haven’t a clue who’s on the other end.

I've been getting calls from this number nearly every day. It's becoming rather tiresome! I think I'll respond with a simple "hello". The line goes silent, though. Absolutely nothing happens! Who in the world are these people? What on earth do they want to keep bothering me for?

the finance collective

Just received a call at 15:04 today from someone claiming they could assist us with “up to 75%” reduction on our unsecured debts. I explained that we don’t actually have any debts, and they bizarrely replied that they were unable to assist us further! Quite the puzzling encounter, to say the least!
