buchanan clark wells - phishing?

Options
Fed up with constant spam phone calls from India my phone company obligingly changed my landline number for free.
Now I am getting threatening phone calls, all automated, going straight to my answer phone.
It's buchanan clark and wells not naming me, or anyone for that matter, but insisting I call them on premium rate number (no chance) and another company who also leave automated messages and do name someone and but it isn't me.
Clearly this phone number comes with baggage.
Do I have to get yet another one or just ignore the whole thing as it's nothing to do with me?

    These guys are a debt collector. This will not stop the calls if they believe they have a contract with the OP.

    Only way for you to find out OP is to contact them and find out who there looking for
