This phone number always calls me and when someone calls me and when it a spam it automatically shows me it a spam and this phone number always calls me even tho I block them they always try to find a way to call me and spam me
I haven't been answering it, but I know I have unsettled debt so I'm not sure if I should pick up. I can't handle these kinds of calls. But based on the other comments, apparently they handle debt. I assume it's either on behalf of Three, Samsung, PlusNet, Monzo or Abound. That's who I have debt with atm, so if you think you have debt with either of these companies, that's what it might be related to.
Called and left a message for Muriel. I'm a bloke and have had my number for over 10 years. Claimed to be debt collectors but is a scam.
Called saying I have outstanding debt but I have no idea of the company I owe money to. Ignore the call
Called me today in Edinburgh. Says they're based in Cheltenham. All nonsense, just ignore
This is a scam call claiming to be from a debt collection agency called Oriel. You do not owe them any money and they most likely won't even know your name. I advise you to block them as they will repeatedly call and leave messages asking you to call them back which could cost you money.
