Hello,

 

I'm getting a lot of missed calls from mobile numbers and when I ring back the cut off straight away, the weird thing is that the numbers are 07734 953 xxx, 07734 953 xxx, 07734 953 xxx which look very close together. Does anyone know if these numbers are used as part of a scam?

The ppi claim numbers I answered a call to 1 of them last Friday and told them to stop calling me, I have received loads in the past few weeks.

I did the same and googled the numbers, that website just shows available numbers from that region. I think it must a company cold calling, but I have heard that if you call back you get charged £25?

Best bet is just not answer them at all to be honest and just ignore them, the texts messages about ppi and accident claims are also annoying.

I block all unknown telephone numbers and all the so-called PPI calls, which I have since intercepted are blocked. All PPI texts including 10 variations of the phrase are also blocked.

 

I find it terrible that I have to do this in the first place. Also why should I register and pay a company for the rejection of telephone calls I don't want. At the end of the day, if I want to reclaim PPI I'll contact them not the other way round.

The best thing about the texts and ppi calls is  I have never had any ppi to claim Or have I had a accident to claim for.

I got a text about an accident I had and a cheque waiting for me. Must have been one hell of an accident if I can't remember it and neither can my family!
