Kathleen reported number +441782401101 as Avantis
Have now had two messages saying 'This is a message from Avantis. Please call 01782401101 as soon as possible.
I rang it and was told I would be connected to an account manager by an automated voice. I hung up.Johnny replied 10/21/16, 1:27 PMThis company is a real pest. Their message is quite businesslike and has a tone of voice that suggests you have already had dealings with them, which is a problem if you are a job seeker anxious to respond to job offer messages quickly.
The company name is stated so quickly that you can't tell if it's Avantis or Atlantis, helping to frustrate due diligence type background searches on the company.
I get calls from them at various times but interestingly, the one time that I seem to consistently get one of their nuisance calls is fortnightly in the last hour before I am due to sign on with Job Centre Plus. Has this company got improper access to confidential DWP data somehow?
I fear that they are preying on job seekers and the the elderly and unwary, and it's just a mechanism for getting victims to dial back and get stung by a premium rate.
It's a disgrace that the governmemt allows companies like this to operate scam cold calls on strangers with complete impunity. The phone companies have no incentive to put it right because they get a cut of the proceeds. Only government can protect us - and it seems that they couldn't care less.Johnny replied 10/21/16, 1:53 PMThey also use 01782 301 123. It really is impossible to tell from their message if they are Avantis, Atlantis or some made up name in between.
I think the likely fit is to ADVANTIS, a credit control company.
