I got a call from this number today. The background waa so LOUD on their side it was impossible to hear most things she was saying. Despite telling them that I am a student with only an overdraft and no loans, they still proceeded to aske for my details claiming that they can pursue PPI. Once I hung up, I looked up the number they called me on and saw the reviews. I rang back straight away to cancel all claims and proceedings. A different operator picked up the phone and upon me questioning her on the reviews she continued to blame other customers/people who did not win a claims to be responsible. She continued to tell me that the particular bank I had the overdraft with can not be used to claim PPI anyway! I had just spend 20 mins on the phone to a person (operator 1) who had no idea what she was doing. The 2nd operator carried on to tell me that the was a new starter and was still in training hence the mistakes in her info. However, during the call, she went back and forth between her manager and myself SEVERAL times, still ended up givingme the wrong info. Don't tell me the manager was a new starter as well!! Just have a gut feeling not to trust these people.

Just got a call from this number 0161 861 4000. I didn't answer, but looked it up and someone on another 'who calls me' type site (GiffGaff I think) said that after he answered somehow this number managed to then make two 50 minute calls from his number and wiped out his credit. Not sure if it's true. I have blocked this number.

Worst PPI call yet! Argumentative, rude and the music in the background made it sound like the idiot was calling from the passenger seat of a car

This is the number of a PPI company called: Help Your Claim Ltd, Deansgate, Manchester M3 2ER They are not trustworthy. They get your number from comparison websites, who sell on your number if you decline to accept one their offers!

Received a call from this number, regretted answering - PPI claims. I've never paid PPI but there are so many people out there insisting I try to claim back what I never paid!! I've lost count of the number of calls I now ignore....it's also really annoying if they leave an automated voice mail when you don't answer.

Just another desperate PPI claims company who have probably bought your name and phone number illegally and are now pursuing you to act on your behalf for a PPI claim. They can't get it through their thick heads that if you have never paid any PPI, how on earth are they going to claim it back for you? Once you reject them, they will sell your details to another PPI claims company who will call you from a different number the next day.
