Repeated messages for someone who has never lived at my number
-
I've marked untrustworthy because their practice is to call repeatedly several times a day to my personal and work numbers. To my mind that makes them a harassing caller and with dubious business practises - I'm amazed Nationwide Building Society would use such a company!!!

they ask receiver that how much debt you have, ask for remaining loan amount or credit card amount then offer half price to clear complete balance means you pay to them and they will complete your load, which is fraud. basically they just take they money out of you by telling they will clear the load or credit and then they would not.

AAM replied 2015-04-07 20:38:20there's no law against it,they could simply say they made a mistake or its an error on the system if quizzed. but in reality its just their way of catching you out. If they call and ask for such and such (the wrong first or second name) 9/10 you will correct them and that's how they get you. Just say sorry wrong number please stop the calls as i am logging them and its verging on harassment. -
Constantly calling messaging and voice mails

Been ringing my mobile for past few weeks looking for a Spencer Richard Spearman. I’ve had my mobile number since 1995 so don’t know how they’ve got my number. Have now got a phone with blocking facility so I won’t be bothered by them again. They also use the number 01482 484621

Debt collectors of the worst type frightening people tantamount to protection rackets you the Law allows them to get away whilst Carillion Executives bask in the Sun on massive Pay offs DISGRACEFUL & DEVISIVE -
They've phoned multiple times now over a week, twice I've answered and had an automated voice, this time I answered and nothing, so I didn't say anything and just left it on for a minute before they hung up. Tools.
-
Absolutely ridiculous company. Answer get an automated message. They call all day up to 9pm. There are so many phone scams where the message tells you to press one and then you get charged a horrendous amount of money so do they really believe that this is the best way to do business. If the call is that important they can get a human to call. Have blocked them. Don't trust companies who hide behind robots.

Called at 8.50 pm ... seriously??
Yes I do owe money on a private loan and was paying it off happily each month but then the balance got transferred to these clowns who think they can squeeze more money from me each month ..it's quite simple...i'm paying you all i can manage each month ...you'll have to wait...maybe next time call me in the daytime but not when i;m sorting the kids for bed.... annoyed! -
They continue to call me dispite me them agreeing in writing that I don't owe anything to them!! Extremely harassing!
-
Wescott have begun calling for the past few days , I had never heard of them , the message says important call & someone's name saying press 1 if it's you or 2 if it's not your name , I just hang up , pests.

Automated system asking to speak to someone who has never lived at this address. I've had the same phone number for about 16 years so I doubt they are using it for the previous owner. It says press 1 if you are (persons name) press 2 if you are not. I'm guessing it's some kind of phishing exercise as its funny that this thread seems to throw lots of random names out to people. Maybe it's just to get you on the line and talking so they know the number is active so then they can pester you even more!

COnstant calls every night and day! Sunday nights at 9pm, weeknights up to 10pm... then a text telling me to call a company I have never heard of!
-
These people started calling my number about 2 weeks ago. They are apparently looking for an Adam Forder or Fordham (can't make out the name as it's garbled). It's always a voice msg stating key in 1 if you're him or 2 if you're not etc. They are calling at least twice each day starting at 09.10am. Have no idea who he is. He's never lived at this address as it's only ever had 2 owners, me and the previous lady. I'm going to arrange a blocking service. TPS doesn't work!
-
Left various automated voicemail messages to ring quoting a particular reference number, so don't know what it is about but I find it harrassing, especially as I'm on the TPS but still get these calls.
-
No one ever speaks, after looking up number then company I wrote to their customer service asking them to remove my number. Write to:- Customer Relations Team, Wescot Credit Services Limited, The Mash, Jarratt Street, Hull, HU1 3HB.

Been getting calls and messages day, night and bank holidays from two numbers and not sure why. I do not answer, but when they leave a message they do not explain who they actually are, nor what it is about. The other number is 01482 618100, which I assume is related to 01482 483281. Don't fall into their traps...

Westcott Debt Collectors. Watch out - they are using a technique to make out the call is from a local number.
-
You should ignore this number they are a telepest and ring often.
-
call once a day No known reason why they should. Do not get my name anything like correct. Ignored them.

Most likely Wescot. Halifax had passed my credit card debt to them two deal with so was expecting a call.

Getting hammered by these guys for a guy who had my new mobile number6 years ago. Limitations says the debt is spent in the UK but they keep coming ... referred them to Vodafone a's they were collecting for them. Ironic as voDanone gave me this new number against an old debt they were processing ....
-
my number is ex directory - they do not have my permission to call my number - they are known to chase debts over 6 tears old. which should be cancelled after this amount of time. by phoning they claim it is restarted. they are Frauds. offer one penny if forced But pay not one penny.

-
They called every day for a week. why??? They are blocked so they can't get through though.
-
Keep calling and leaving automated messages. Pests!

-

Have called non stop for my late brother, explained just that and wes scott stated as i am related i MUST pay debt. However apparent debt was accumulated after his passing they really don't care for facts and when asked for details i.e creditor i was told i cant have that information due to data protection so why the hell ask me to pay for it if i cant get name of creditor to chase it uo with them as FRAUD. AVOID AVOID AVOID answer calls for cold hearted company
AAM replied 2015-04-07 20:34:14they are chancing their luck. Sorry to hear of your brothers passing, but his debt is NOT your responsibility. If it is a credit card,loan or mortgage debt it is worth checking if he had PPI insurance which might cover the debt. If not then any debts he has will be paid off with monies from his estate if he had anything of value to sell. If they keep calling quote the Acts below and also tell them you will be seeking legal advice and suing them for the said breaches. But once the creditors have been told that you’re going through the legal process to deal with the deceased’s estate, they should back off and give you breathing room. Hope you get it sorted -
Answer... Call them c**ts or just ignore. Westcott group... They call anyone.. Debt or no debt. Parasites is a good word

If you happen to answer the phone simply say "i am not giving you any details but i am requesting that you remove the number you have on your system, that you have dialled, as you are in breach of the Protection of Harassment Act 1997 & also the Malicious Communications Act of 1988 (section 1)" Ask if they understand, if they say no, repeat, or just keep repeating the Acts if they fail to listen and keep requesting info. Could also say if looking for a particular person try writing to the address they have on file (dont give any details out) tell them the amount of calls received constitutes the breaches of both acts.
Also try down loading a good call blocker on mobiles. Ive done it and it works a treat :)
