Seems like I'm the only person on here that actually does have a debt with these guys. They bought my debt from Vodafone after they defaulted on my contract but refused to release me from it, I told them to do one and took the credit rating hit. They do call at all hours but I can program my phone to ring silently for certain numbers, it took a while to get all their different numbers but now I don't hear a thing from them and in no time at all it will be wiped from my rating, Vodafone and Lowell can swivel, corporate scum.
thecridders replied 2014-07-31 11:22:55well done mate, i have similar to yourself and they call at night, i will invest in a better phone and do the same, creepy little money grabbing monkeys.AnzenB replied 2015-01-30 14:27:54I owe Lowell money too & like yourself they bought a debt from Vodafone & a couple of others I owed over the years. So the likelihood of this being lowell is yes ! They phone me 4 times a day everyday, I just don't answer at the min as I cant afford to pay anything. I have to go insolvent unfortunately!Rovvert replied 2016-06-22 20:14:29This is actually an sms message number for talk talk. I've got a coupe calls from them lately as I'm taking out business broadband with them and this is the number they ring me from.
Don't where the rest of you are getting debt collectors from??crotchgoblin replied 2016-11-19 12:20:48its a call/text service used by companies all over - problem is that lowell got in by subscribing & have ruined the companies business by harrassing people
YES your dentist will have subscribed especially if you are NHS
YES the water companies use it,Lowell gave it a bad rep that it will not get back -
The above number called but a voice / text message was left stating that 03443462020 called, it was South West Water to warn of a burst pipe in the area and information about this. The number that appeared on the phone was 08442843421 though.
Heliena replied 2015-06-16 16:38:54I had the same today tooGail replied 2015-07-08 19:21:50Had sma call today 8/7/15 assume it was SWWater as had a txt message earlier on this afternoon.doh replied 2015-12-31 15:49:14this number rang today; SMS message apparently; gave a number to ring as the caller. Did not press to listen to message, or make a note of the returning number. Thing is SW Water is doing work near to where I live, so could have been them.Another Poppy replied 2018-03-09 15:47:40Agree with commments re SW Water. They called with voice message to advise of burst water pipe and explained it was being actioned. -

message from my dentist as a reminder of an appointment
-
Rec'd a call from this number, as I did not recognise it, did not answer.
-
This number call I answered it recorded it wanted me to press 1 but refused and put phone down I wonder if I press 1would I get a big bill
-
Had a sms message on my land line, said the message was from # 000000000... Hung up, dialled 1471 and was told this number sent the sms.No idea what it was about. Didn't wait to find out.
-
GENUINE call, from a store advising me that "the item I ordered is now in the store and available for collection".
This text-to-speech service is obviously used by many companies, therefore unfortunately it is going to be difficult to separate genuine callers from spam/sales calls. -
This is a SMS message sent from a mobile phone to landline! If not answered the number will continue to ring!
-
Constant calls all day, every 2 hours, for weeks. My number is unlisted, so no reason for anyone to call it
-
They keep calling me but I don't pick up. First time an automated voice said that I had an SMS message but I didn't believe it, why would I, I've never had one before. Now I'm looking after grandchildren asleep in bed and the phone is still ringing. I'm getting angry now! Clearly a scam of some sort.
-
This was a call from my dentist telling me about an appointment. Don't know where the debt collection bit comes in??
crotchgoblin replied 2016-11-19 12:15:27its a universal call service
one day its dentist next its essex n suffolk water ,next its lowell,its a subscription service with around 1000 phone numbers that are rotatedso you dont know if you are coming or going -
Received a call from this number.
It is a text messaging service used by several companies, some legit others not- my old dentist in my case. -
-
Calling me multiple times per day. No idea why. I'm TPS listed and never use the number they are calling on any correspondence. So, this is clearly a scam of some sort.
Why Ofcom can't stop this kind of nuisance calling is a mystery to me. Ineffective regulation. -
Lowells - notorious and shady debt collection agency you should on no account speak to by telephone, and if they call you, hang up.
If you have a call blocker or a call filtering system (Truecall's a good one), then make sure these numbers are entered, and then they'll never get through to you.

Also, this company is notoriously bad at dealing with general enquiries or complaints, so if you have such a complaint you do need to discuss with them, do it by email, and do it from a free hotmail account (NO WAY should you se your normal everyday email address).
If you have to send them an email, then make sure every one of the addresses on the list below is copied in - they'll be much more inclined to pick your enquiry up and deal with it properly, especially if you don't buy their excuses, fob-offs and attempts to ignore your enquiry (all of which they will try to do, if there's no money in it for them!).
Please note that these email addresses have been included SOLELY to help you reach them at your own convenience and on your own terms and not theirs - they are NOT here to be abused, ie. isnged up to religious sites, porn sites, book sites, etc.
Plus, it really irritates them when they get more emails to trawl through than they need to - so that's a plus in itself.

[email protected];L Smith replied 2016-04-21 17:30:02I totally agree with you, they use so many different numbers, landline and mobile. I never answer, but when I get a new one, I just check it on here. They buy debts off other companies, and I was told by a solicitor, that once the company sells the debt you are no longer responsible for it. It is then Lowells debt and you are under no obligation to pay it, as it no longer belongs to the company you originally had the debt with. When Lowells and other debt collecting firms buy debts they do it to make money. So why line their pockets.D C Keen replied 2016-06-09 20:16:04Please could you please advise me is Lowell Group and Lowell financial ltd the same people.Lowell Group says it from Leeds and Lowell Financial reckons its from Nottingham, the latter of the two has been registered with numerous other company names with Companies House I had an email from them asking me to confirm my date of birth and full address before they could assist me with the email I sent to them regarding money they chasing from me.binky replied 2016-09-19 13:59:07I'm glad you didn't publish my email for yet more nuisance calls.
Fancy giving away addresses like this - stupid and irresponsible -
I was receiving calls from these idiots for a person who did not live at my address, I told them many times but they never listen. Now when they call I turn the Table on them by pretending I am a debt collector and I am calling them to recover a debt they owe, the response was hilarious. They have not called me anymore. This works with Indian Tele sales to, you just have to tell them you have an amazing offer for them but don't let them get a word in, keep telling them about your amazing offer and they will hang up and never call again.

Got a call today 2 mins ago.. got a bit late to pick up the phone.. when called back its a voice message .. this is a sms delivery store you have no messages.. so guess likely to be a premium rate trying to charge you..
-
Southwest water advising via a sms messaging that there is a problem with water in area,
Do not help themselves as say message comes from another number, speak so fast it is impossible to get it down, abd also the website sounds like it is Luigi something, had 3 calls one recorded second one they didnt play message and third i managed to listen to,,some credibility as no water for nearly 6hours today -
Posing as an sms delivery service
-
From what I have seen on this site and others,it is just the number for a text messaging service. Unfortunately it is used by genuine companies, like water companies, and also by all sorts of scumbags as well. No way of knowing which it is as I'm not prepared to risk a scam pr pressing whatever number they tell me.
-
what the f..ing do you want i answer the phone no one there
-
never heard of them, the supposed fine and I have never been to court or had a traffic offence.
I hope they bring the police with them as I will certainly call them -
Came home to an automated message on my answerphone claiming I had failed to pay a court order and bailiffs were on their way. No name and when I called the company they said they had no record of the account no they had left in the message and no record of my phone no. The message was threatening and it took 20 rep,ays to work out their phone no. It is disgusting that they can leave this type of message .
-
These parasites have called my landline 9 times today so far, I refuse to answer.
-
I was called today by this company and found out who they were (on here). I promptly phoned their 0845 number and requested that they remove me from their database. I explained that I had caller preference and threatened to report them to Ofcom. The interesting thing is that they asked me if I knew a certain person (who they mentioned by name). This person was clearly the person they were chasing for the debt but I had never heard of her. They state on their website that they are they work ethically, honestly, and with transparency. That is clearly complete and utter bull. I was assured that they would take my number of their database (that remains to be seen). How ethical is it to mention a person with debt by name to a third party? It isn't. How transparent is it to call someone and not state who you are? It isn't. How honest is it to call people in the hoipe of entrapping them? It isn't.
-
If you block them they appear to have landline numbers in Glasgow Manchester Huddersfield simply let them waste their calls. I have written to them once saying this is not correct but they ignore.
-
Sky were of no help in barring this number, so I've had to tackle it myself.
I made sure I was registered with the Telephone Preferential Service and then called Lowell on the number on the first page of their own website..
0845 300 9410
I demanded my number was removed, made it quite clear I was registered with TPS and that I would take my complaint further if I received one more call from them. -
Just had a call from 08442843421 saying they needed to talk to me urgently and used the call back service, when connected i got a message saying you have not messages waiting for you and the call cut off, seems a scam for you to call a premium rate number, all i can say is scum bags.
-
They keep phoning my work number, I will never speak to them, they don't leave a message and have been doing it for nearly two years.
belgarion21 replied 2014-10-24 14:06:41They are not allowed to call you at your please of work -
This number called today for the first time. I have BARRED it, end of story. Some people here seem to have a story to tell, or getting involved, get annoyed about these idiots ringing all day, it this utter nonsense. Bar the number for life - nothing further to talk about. Talk about what?
-
Calling at all hours. Never answer this number and if you do happen to pick up the phone stay silent. They are awfully.
-
These debt collecting agencies are often looking for a debtor and all they have to go on is a name. So they compile a list of people with the same name and harass them into giving enough personal info to cross them off their list. Report them to the ICO. Don't call them back or give them want they want because you'll just be helping them stay in business.
-
Lowell have started calling me. i checked here before responding. I won't be answering. I do have debts but pay £1 per month as I am a pensioner.
ted replied 2014-10-30 18:23:31To EVERYONE on this forum to get rid of this scum,just go to getoutofdebtfree.org or go on you tube and enter the name,Anthony Meehan,he is amazing. -
-
They keep calling me from different numbers, but I block them. They keep leaving an automated computer voicemail. Almost every day they call for a debt that is over 7 years old.
steph replied 2014-08-18 14:01:16after 6yrs your debt is statute barred so they cant collebt the debt unless you have made a payment to them within those 6 yrs..so my advice is just to ignore them -
I ignore all calls coming into my landline number until the caller speaks.
If no one speaks within a few seconds, I assume that I've been called by an autodialler which is activated by the sound of my voice, and because I've remained silent.... nothing happens, or I hang up.
I then dial 1471 for the number and Google it.
I never call any numbers they've left for me to call. If they are too lazy to make any effort to contact me themselves.... then their call can't be that important! -
Received a silent call then went to SMS message "URGENT CALL" for someone I never heard of from a foreign lady. I won't be calling them. HOW DO WE STOP THESE CALLS.??
-
STOP PHONING ME FOR SOMEONE WHO HAS NEVER LIVED HERE ,,I HAVE ONLY JUST GOT THIS NO FROM TALK TALK ...MAYBE SOMETHING TO DO WITH THEM DO ONE
Ginger replied 2014-11-26 17:39:56I have exactly the same problem and I got my landline from TalkTalk too. It looks suspicious to me.RobbieH replied 2015-11-18 11:07:20Me to,Talktalk have been told but do nothing. They are a right pain in the butt. -
Calling to chase a debt. Number they call is a Skype number I have had for 3 months. Nothing to do with me. But annoying they will not stop.
-
Had several calls no message left, when did answer one of them recorded their message.
They advised that there was an SMS message for me from 08449801895, press 1 to hear.
No way, added to blocked list, been receiving a lot mail for people who have not lived at this address for over 30 years, assume the same bunch of muppets who will now be calling my phone at odd times of the day and night
