Called me saying their name was Rachel and they worked on behalf on the BBC.
Called today, didn't answer. It was showing area code Oakhampton. Glad I didn't answer after reading all comments here. Thank you
They just phoned me, a foreigner was taking and I honestly couldn't hear but I heard something like "This is dvr (I don't know just 3 letters), how are you today?" and I just ended.
Called my mobile, so called back on landline. It is a PPI claim line. Added to auto reject list on my mobile.
Caller location from "Okehampton" Didn't answer the call but I definitely know that this is related to telemarketing. Blacklisted and reported.
Another bloody PPI call no idea how they got my number immediately added to my auto reject list - also extremely hard to understand the foreigner on the phone as could hardly understand a word they said
I didn't answer and they rang again straight away. Again I didn't answer. I googled it and I'm glad I did not answer. Thank you for a good service.
Didn't answer it
Did not bother to answer in all probability another spam call
Told me they were solicitors and did not hear the rest as I switched off.very difficult to understand the caller.
I didn't answer but called them back. It's surprise surprise a PPi claim service
Called me about a minor car accident I had in the past. I didn't have any accident.Might be a scam call.
