This number rang while I was sleeping. They didn't leave a message. I have stopped answering unknown numbers.
Didn't answer it at the missed call was at 2am!! So don't know who they were or why they were calling.
023 8000 0571 rang and hung up. Call centre noises in the background.
Same as above - Blackpool (or Black Pearl) couldn't quite make it out before I cut them off. I get so many of these, even though I auto reject each number as it comes, they seem to just use more, and not just close together numbers either!
it was a southampton number but I live no where near southampton so rejected call. it went to my voicemail and the message left by a female was rude as she eventually realised that she had gone to my voicemail. She ended with"thanks for not picking up!" Guessing it was a PPI call, sick to death with these types of calls.
Guy called "Ben" from the Philippines, works on behalf of a company called BPC (Blackpool Claims). He is very easy to confuse, but if you start talking about the Philippines then he gets very excitable. Nice guy, shame he works for the scum of the earth...
BPC- Blackpool Claims company or something like that, took them a while to realise I had picked up, guessing it's one of these cold calling companies that dial a few numbers at a time and speak to whoever answers first!! Hung up when they said who they were.
PPI company, rude too just hung up on me when I politely said I wasn't interested. Next time I won't feel bad just hanging up. They are scum.
This number called me, I did not answer as I didn't recognise the number...then I got a 3minute voicemail message, I heard faint music in the background, but I also heard what appeared to be very loud heavy breathing...for 3minutes!?! Very creepy.
A random PPI claims company. Waste of time.
