called saying needed to speak to a Director was a personal matter relating to the business and to get them to call back
Call today asking me to confirm my personal details and wanted to discuss outstanding business matter. Ask them to confirm what business matter she could not confirm, replied I’ll send you a letter.
Not a call but a text asking me to call this number about my account. It said it had recently contacted me about my account. No one has. It asks to call this number or visit ... advantiscredit ... with a reference number. Advantis is a debt collection company. I have no debts.

Same call pattern as people are reporting for 01782971401 Nobody at the other end but a recorded message saying that you will not be charged and to press #1 to be put through. Smells scammy.
