A man, told me twice to F**K off because I didn't immediately confirm who I was. I laughed and said, you called me, what do you want? He told me because I wasn't nice to him he HAD TO tell me to F off. I just said, ok well now you can F**k off. He hung up.

They have phoned 3 times in the last two days claiming to be from Aviva. They’re not genuine and are quite patronising if you dare to question who they are. Number blocked.
